That sucks, I got thrown into the DMV circlejerk a few months ago. First I failed for a cracked side mirror (barely cracked), and emissions. I get a new mirror, do plugs cap rotor pcv EGR air filter o2 sensor etc etc. and I go back, oh, I'm missing the receipt for one thing? So I'm like can't you just ignore that I checked off o2 sensor on the sheet, or a mistake, because its not like they can tell if I changed it or not. He gets insulted, and tells me to backup and leave and comeback with a receipt. Few days later I buy another o2, have receipt, OH- I'm past my inspection date. The guy gets excited and says FULL REINSPECTION. This is where they are ********. Two of them like vultures all over the car. My steering wheel was beat up and they failed me for cracked steering wheel (but the paper didn't say wheel), I had a new one just didn't put it on yet. No big deal. And they failed me for EXPOSED FLYWHEEL, no cover. Once they saw flywheel explosed with their little mirrors, they didn't even test anything else, no brakes, no emissions, brought it right to the end. And that's a 48-hour fail, which means I have to take off work and bust my ass around to find a damn cover. I get it fixed and come back, I get some lady, she's totally confused at what the steering thing was because it didn't say wheel on it, but they verbally told me wheel. So I spent 10 minutes explaining to her and 3 other people that the guys over on the other side were just being ******** to the kid with the trans am and forgot to type wheel. They finally believe me and did the tests, I passed everything, I was so surprised.
