My S2000 is coming up for its 4th year registration, and in California, that means it is time for a smog check. There is a "computer port" that is standard on all cars since the mid 1990s that they plug the smog check computer into. I don't want the mechanic poking all around my car to find that port. So does anyone know where this port is? Thanks.

By the way, smog check in California is now at $100 a pop, and it is required every two years. You guys in other states/countries are lucky.

 

The ODB port is located inside the drivers side foot well just behind where the radio is located. It is a rectangle size block about 3/4 inch tall by 2 inches wide.

 

Thanks.

Not on the 00/01s. It's on the passenger side.

There is a sticker under your steering wheel that tells you where it's located. 00/01 passenger side, 02/03(04?) drivers side.

 

Oh. Did not know that.

 

I always learn something new evertime I come here.

 

100 bux for smog check? I just did mine bout 2 weeks ago cuz I had to do a transfer of title. still cost me only 35 bux. maybe its just in SF.

 

I was told that the price changed (for the Bay Area) around Oct. 1, 2003 when the Smog Check II became required. It was supposed to be implemented in Southern CA earlier, but I have no idea how much it costs down there to do a smog check.
