Emissions Help
-
yes, if you can register the cars, noting the non-emissions requiring county as the 'stored' place, you don't need emissions.
There is a bit more to it though. First, if your cousin has a hartford address, he is likely in Washington co, which requires emissions. Second, you need to know the town and county. I have my cars 'stored' at my inlaws which is in dodge county and the town of herman, yet they have an Iron ridge address. Make sure you know what to put down so you don't look like an idiot.
But really, like ILC said, it is all computers. This is not always straight forward either. Usually if you have no CEL you are good to go, however sometimes certain codes can be 'not ready' which will not cause the CEL to light, but still show up on the scan. I believe WI allows 2 'not readys' during the scan, but I could be wrong on that.
Anyway you can check what county this adresss is in? Summit st hartford wisconsin 53027-2034

You don't need an address for the 'stored in' box, just a town and county. Have a quick bs story for the worker and call it a day.

it's in washington CO. but, likes patsbimmer1 said, you just need a township and county. I have a convenient story that my inlaws actually live there.
So is it good for emissions and that i dont have to take it?

I have registered many, many cars to other counties and have NEVER been questioned whatsoever. In my opinion, you should have done that when registering the car for the first time. Changing it later just looks suspicious. Like what others have said, if there is no check engine light you should be fine for an emissions test.

I was questioned on my last e36 when I registered at a DMV in Milwaukee County but said the car was stored in Walworth county. I also had a convenient story because my mom lives in East Troy.
My dad switched a car after they couldn't get it to pass emissions and he re-registered it in his fiances name to Walworth county. The lady gave him a hard time and he just said it was a gift.
It's really not a big deal to re-register the car but if they DMV associate is in enough of a mood they may question you. Like other's have said though, i'd try and see if it passes first. The worst that happens is you fail and you re-register it anyways.

I register all my cars to my parents house even though I live in Milwaukee. No emissions tests and my insurance is cheaper.

Emission testing is horse shit
And I'm glad I never have to do it

I was excited when I moved to Rock county and knew i'd never have to deal with emissions again (for now)

no, it is not good. you can't use that address/town/county.
