Emissions Testing & Services
Consolidated Truck Parts & Service offers comprehensive truck emissions testing services. We ensure accurate and reliable testing to meet regulatory requirements.
While after-treatment systems have been mandatory, diesel particulate filter (DPF) maintenance remains an issue and causes a lot of downtime for truckers.
With the supply chain crisis in 2021 and subsequent years, the difficulty in procuring after-treatment system components makes it even more challenging for truck owners and fleet operators.
You can better manage DPF issues and downtime by creating an inspection and maintenance schedule. Consolidated Truck Parts & Service provides diesel emissions testing and services so you can better manage DPF downtime and ensure your truck won’t have other emission problems.
Our Emissions Testing Process
- Thorough Inspection: Our skilled technicians conduct a comprehensive visual inspection of your truck’s emission control system, including the DPF, exhaust system, catalytic converter, and other relevant components.
- Onboard Diagnostic (OBD) Scan: We utilize advanced OBD scanning tools to retrieve valuable data from your truck’s onboard computer system. This data provides insights into any potential emission-related issues.
- Exhaust Gas Analysis: Through precise gas analysis, we measure the composition of the exhaust gases to assess the levels of pollutants your truck emits. This analysis helps identify any excessive emissions and potential problems within the engine or emission control system.
- Emission Standards Compliance: Our testing procedures adhere to local, state, and federal emission standards. We ensure that your truck meets the required emissions limits and complies with the applicable regulations.
- Diagnostic and Repair Services: If any emission-related issues are detected during the testing process, our technicians will provide expert diagnostics and repair services to address the problem. We use quality parts and industry-approved methods to restore your truck’s emission control system to optimal performance.

Frequency of Emissions Testing
The frequency of emissions testing for trucks can vary based on local regulations and the specific characteristics of the truck. Different jurisdictions have their own guidelines regarding how often emissions testing should occur.
Here are some key points to consider:
- Local Regulations: These regulations may specify the testing interval and the specific criteria for testing.
- Type of Truck: The type of truck can also influence the testing frequency. For example, heavy-duty trucks may be subject to more frequent testing as they tend to have higher emissions due to their larger size and engine capacity.
- Annual Testing: In many jurisdictions, annual emissions testing is a standard requirement for trucks. It helps identify any issues or malfunctions in the emission control system that may have arisen over time.
- Other Factors Affecting Testing Frequency: Some regions may have additional factors that determine the testing frequency, like the age of the vehicle, mileage, or the specific usage of the truck.
- Compliance and Penalties: Failure to comply with emissions testing requirements can result in fines, vehicle impoundment, or even suspension of operating permits.
Consolidated Truck Parts & Service can assist you in navigating the testing requirements and provide guidance on maintaining a well-functioning emission control system for your truck fleet.
