Ted W.

We had a check engine light come on in my daughter's Nissan Versa Note. The car stalled a couple times and while searching for a reputable shop to diagnose the problem it was then when I came across APS Automotive. I first called and spoke with Michael, super nice guy and very knowledgable. He said they were very busy, but as I explained that we had the issue while traveling from Socal to the Bay Area, he was able to squeeze us in to check the car. APS ( Michael specifically) helped us figure out the issue and got us back on the road. Very prompt, honest and professional! All the qualities you want in a shop. Thanks Michael! -Ted and Tara

I went in for a smog check. They got it done very quickly (20 minutes) and for a good price.

West coast auto & towing is the place to go for very skilled, knowledgeable & very respectful…read moreservice! I had issues with my car for awhile , just couldn't quite fix it our selfs ( is the newer diesel technology in it) we were referred by my mother in law , who happened to know the owner from her college days and spoke highly of him. We called made an appointment, was able to drop the car off days prior to the appointment in case they could to it sooner ( since it had to be trailed ) very nice front desk guy upon drop off! Within 2 days we got a call, they had it fixed, and they wanted to drive it some more so they felt 100% it was going home perfect! Long story short, when picking up car , very nice gentleman at the front desk ( different one from before). I'm so beyond thankful for a shop and crew that is confident in their work! They are very fair with their prices to their customers, for the price we paid to fix my car I would have paid that over and over again! And Trust me I've had my fair share of bad shop experiences and mechanics/ businesses that really don't care about your vehicle and just want the money ... but this shop is 100% at your best interest! They gained a customer who will keep coming back in the future & will continue to spread the word of the amazing standard this shop holds

These guys saved us when our son had a flat tire then a flat spare down in Big Sur driving home…read morefrom college. Fast and friendly service. Thanks to the dispatch team for updating us and driver Ryan for the pickup and safe journey.

I landed in north county SLO in 2006 from downunder, straight outta the aussie bush with my L.A…read more born life. I was smellin' 'o' gum leaves and real rural .... beyond the black stump.... outback ! Around 2008 I had nailed a job and was livin' sweet in Jesse Jesse Jame's hideout... yeah mates , my new chosen country was guid to me. Then I found out that all the cars here get SMOG checked, after using the 'bush telegraph' I got recommended to the service's of Templeton Smog & Service. I was havin' a nosey magpie at this bloke who was repairing a coupla dozers and his son a WW2 chevvy truck... ancient... and he was getting parts for these projects... I mean really hard to get stuff.... from Templeton Smog & Service.... my immediate thought was... anyone who can rat these parts is hooked up.... he also said if you have any problems go see them, Anthony is very cluey in matters mechanical.... it turns out he was spot on. For seven years my wife ran the grade as a nurse to SLO.... Templeton Smog & Service kept my wife safe and the car in top running order. Here's something you get in the service.... old school....the auto went "ratty"...... 3 grand or more..... ????? ... was not feeling the best... so I took the car in for the boys to check it out....Anthony solved it for me for $234 out the door... seems out in the paddocks 'o' paso, the ground squirrels crawl up for the warmth as the car cools down... or the shelter... well they had made a meal of a wiring loom that fed the auto and the chip....whaddya reckon ? .... you can see why they get all of my business....there would be more than a dozen more instances of much merit & savings to me, very hard to find in this fickle world. I was a part time checkstand clerk at the time and my wife had retired....both of us senior citizens, fixed income. Over the years I have had nothing but straight up service... and absolute truthfullness in all dealings, diagnoses and remedies from this enterprise. Yesterday I just picked up my F150.... fully diagnosed repaired and out the door for $112... got the radiator pressure tested.... they found that pesky pinhole leak..repaired it..... found the problem of why the heater wasn't happening in the cabin.... sorted the air con elec... rehooked in bottom anchor on air filter... pumped the tires....as quoted... "heater works, just like in the aussie bush !!!!".... wife is very very happy... hahahahahahaha happy wife happy life for all you young punters & tax dodgers. My background is I used to run a side-bizz downunna called "bolt uprite & the relaxed mechanics"...... we rebuilt big hemi 6's and all the v8's.... torqueflite auto's and my engineer could throw a 9" Ford OR Detroit Locker into anything..... built the engines for LPG... one third the price... 106 octane... 4 barrel Edelbrock manifold....texas block huggin' headers.... truck Impco simplex 7 litre 2 stage convertor.... dual fuel/ dual spark..... dialed in for flat runnin' for the 2,000 mile hop 'cross the desert....punchin' a dollar/ dollar twenty all the way.... aluminium bull bar.... best day I had was 5:30am start.... 1,250 miles... was eating a vegemite sandwich and nailin a cup 'o' joe at 7:30pm.... that's an average of 89.28mph.... cool hey... flat runnin'.... wide view... was a '78 ZG Fairlane with a cleveland rebuilt 302v8... standard everything Impco gas gear and 120lt. LPG in the trunk.... Enough of me and me aussie bush yarns.... straight up five STARS....they have my RESPECT and thankfullness to have such a wonderfull service in our north county SLO. If you wanna get something done, ask someone who's busy.... you only have to look at the amount of vehicles they repair everyday, yeah mates big aussie... hell yeah to all the blokes & folks with Templeton Smog & Service.

I am normally a DIY mechanic and would do something like this myself but time was a crunch before a big vacation weekend so I had this shop do it. Was referred by another shop in town- and they did the work quickly and gave me a small break on the price since they got it done faster which I appreciated.
