I've had a few things done there. This shop and staff are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They're reasonable on their pricing and they don't string you along. Took my car in there for service and they had it done in no time. It's a small family run business that I will definitely be going back to. read more

A great find! We have been well take care of here. Always good to go somewhere for your vehicle where you can place your trust. Looking to make an appointment again this coming week. read more

Called this company to just find out what some services would cost and the person who answered the phone was the rudest person. He was extremely irritated at the fact I was asking for a rough estimate on some services. If a company is not willing to give me some estimates, then its a company I will not do business with. Be aware with companies that won't give you estimates or be prepared for unlimited costs!! read more

I was recommended Advanced Automotive and Brent, by a friend and coworker who swore that is was the best, most fair automotive repair shop in Temecula. That was in 2015. I've been taking my 2004 Infiniti G35 (my daily driver) to him ever since and he's never fixed what didn't need to be fixed or suggest a ridiculous laundry list of items like you get from a dealership. The prices charged for repairs is always reasonable. My car is 16 years old and things have been wearing out (minor things), which is normal for a car that old with about 200k miles. The most recent issue with my 'G' made it difficult to start and it ran poorly. I'm not a mechanic, so some rip-off artist could have told me anything and I would've believed them. Brent, as usual, told me straight-up that is was merely a computer sensor that had failed, and he repaired in an afternoon. My friend was right. You can trust this shop to do great work, they're fast, and they're honest. As long as Brent can keep my 'G' on the road, I'll keep taking my car to his shop! read more

My car being driven by my daughter started to make a humming noise when driving. Since I live in the east coast, things got a bit to uncomfortable and I decided to look into a repair shop near her to have this issue taken care of. Based on this repair shop's reviews and a quick conversation with Brent, I made an appointment for my daughter to bring the car in for Eval. Brent called me back a few hours after the drop off and reported the source of the problem. He was able to repair, called my extended warranty service and contact my daughter to pick the car up, repaired- by the end of the day. For a father living across the country from his daughter; Brent saved the day in a Big Way!!! Great place, and awesome professionalism. read more

My daughter was driving my car and starting to notice a strange " humming" noise when driving. She is in California and I am in South Carolina. In my attempt to find a reputable, established, repair shop in the Temecula area I came across Advanced Automotive. Gave Brent a call and right away, I knew that this was a trustworthy business. We were able to make an appointment over the phone, the car was brought in on a Friday morning and by that very same afternoon, the problem was solved and my daughter was back on the road with a safe vehicle. Brent was even able to contact my Extended Warranty Services and arranged for payment leaving me to pay my deductible for a more than fairly priced completed job. Thank you so much and I will always be very appreciative of your professional and courteous attention to my situation. Great Job!! read more

Thanks Brent to you and your mechanics for keeping my autos running smooth! Support our local businesses! read more

I had taken my car to a dealer in the high desert, to troubleshoot a moaning noise coming from the front end of my 2004 Toyota Corolla recently purchased. The dealer told me I needed a auto transmission costing above $4,000 dollars, and new struts going for $1500. The car has only 80K miles on it so I thought that was odd. I took it to Brent to troubleshoot, he had it a half a day, and he told me I needed new tires and a belt for the alternator. I had him replace the belt. I purchased new tires and the noise up front went away, and drives like new. While looking under the hood, I knew I was missing a battery hold down bolt and hardware, he and his team applied the gear so my battery wouldn't move around. So glad I found the shop, going to be a customer from now on, for all my vehicle needs. Bryan read more

I've had a rear main seal replace in my Jeep here and had ac serviced a couple times, and coolant flush on my Mustang . Always no nonsense repairs done very well, quickly, and for a very fair price. I do most of the work on my vehicles myself because I don't usually feel comfortable having someone else touching my vehicles, but I have confidence in Advanced Automotive and highly recommend. read more

My car has been having battery drainage issue (parasitic leakage) for many years. Toyota dealer tried multiple times but could not identify the problem. Or maybe they did not want to replace their defective product. I was able to get the problem diagnosed (after-market alarm) and addressed in a timely manner with a reasonable cost. Excellent performance and wonderful service. Would highly recommend. read more

I've gone to Advanced Automotive for 10 years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Brent is a trustworthy mechanic; I know going in that he's never going to try and sell me on something I don't need or tell me something's wrong with my car when it isn't. His prices are great and I know everything they do is quality because I've never had to take my car back after he's done doing the regular maintenance. Can't recommend him and Advanced Auto enough. read more

I was referred to Brent from Steve at Dyno-Trans. Brent did a free check engine light scan, diagnosed it and saved me hundreds from the dealer. He didn't even push for the job. He told me it wasn't serious, and just bring it by when I was ready. These two guys are the most honest, trustworthy and friendliest auto mechanics around. Thank you so much Brent. read more

I have been coming to Brent for all my automotive needs since I started driving at 16. In the almost 15 years of coming to him, I have been extremely happy with his service. No matter what I go in for, he keeps me updated on the state of my cars, letting me know when something will be needing service soon. He never tries to add unnecessary repairs or services, and is flexible with getting things done. I have tried other mechanics but I always come back to Brent's Advanced Automotive. read more

My Mom was getting charged a lot by another mechanic. So when her next car issue came up, I googled other mechanics in the area and on a whim I went w/ Advanced Automotive. Brent gave her a quote and sure enough... it was $250 LESS than the previous guy! She only goes there now. So I took my car in the other day after work unannounced at 7:45 a.m. Brent said that appointment are the way to go BUT he accepted my repair request and was able to get it done and at a good price. Great service and honest! I live 40 miles from them and I would not have been able to get home w/o my car being fixed. I highly recommend A.A! We will go nowhere else! read more
