Hey Everyone,
I'm preparing for a trip in two weeks with a new to me 2004 sprinter. I have to get it registered and thus smogged in CA before I leave because I only have a temp tag on it now.
I'll need to replace my cracked turbo resonator and then have someone clear the check engine light. Once thats done I've heard that I have to drive around for a week so that the computer can show historical evidence of the van operating without any error.
Is this "drive around for a week" business true?
Will I fail the smog test if I just take it in all fixed with no check engine light on?
Can I get a plate with a failed smog?
Thanks!
Ben
