The buyer is correct. You will need to get a new smog check certificate for
your 2001 Honda CRV for the purpose of title transfer. In fact a smog
certificate obtained strictly for the purpose of selling a vehicle is only
valid for 60 days. Any type of smog check station can conduct a smog check
for the purpose of selling your Honda CRV. Just drive into any smog test
center and explain your are selling your Honda and need a smog certificate.
