Can't get car in ready state for emissions testing and now it's past the registration deadline and unable to be driven....what now?
So...I flew into CO (I work out of state) to get car tested for renewal of the registraiton. Battery was dead. So, I changed to a new battery and of course, the smog lights all need to be reset. No worries...do a few drive cycles. Unfortunately, after 300+ miles and a flat tire, it was still not ready. I had to leave to go back to work. Dropped car at dealer before I flew out. They were supposed to get the car in ready state and then drive it to get tested. The guy who was working there is no longer working there and the new guy says, "we don't do this...."
So, now my car has an expired registration and 3/4 lights are working for the emissions testing. What's my next step? Do I get the car towed to the emissions station just so that they can say it doesn't pass, and then I get it towed home? How can I get that 4th light to go on if I can't drive it to get it in a ready state? Thanks.
