I went in for transmission fluid change earlier in February in my Toyota Camry 2018. I bought OEM Toyota transmission fluid and asked Joe to help do drain and fill.The drain and fill was completed. After that there was a rough driving issues started. I went back to show my car to joe and he drove the car he told me he don't see any issues. I wanted him to check transmission fluid port on if there is low transmission fluid he didn't agree and told me I might be overthinking. I went to different mechanic in April and he checked. I paid $100 to reopen the port for transmission fluid and what we saw was no fluid came out from the primary port. He added 0.5 quarters left. The issues I have had for rough idle and need to have higher RPM on slope went away completely.According to him you have to keep the car running when you drain the fluid and you need to have it at the right temperature he said the drain and fill wasn't done correctly that's why there was still room for fluid. The viscosity of the fluid makes a difference in how much you can fill and drain. He double checked for leakage and there were no leaks either. When I went to joe and asked about don't you have to keep car warm to see if temperature is right? He said you only do it when there is a leak. I don't think Joe knew enough about mechanics of New car. I wasn't overthinking when I went to ask Joe for help and asked to recheck the transmission fluid. I paid $260 for labor only( $160 to Joe and $100 to another mechanic) for same job. It's really absurd. Overall this could have damaged my transmission. I think for future the customer advise should be taken seriously. I know my car well so I know when it's not acting good. I have been driving it from 10 years.

I've also bought performance parts on my own for them to install when I can't and they are happy to oblige. Steve has also worked a couple small miracles with my turbocharger.

After my mandatory one year of disappointing services at a Van Nuys Blvd Dealership where I purchased my car, I was looking for a more trustworthy, fairly priced and meticulously knowledgeable Mechanic that was nearby. The Yelp reviews were on point, and so far I've had very good experiences here; taking my Jeep Grand Cherokee for a variety of maintenance - oil changes, services and repairs. Ralph has been available to take care of any issue when I've just dropped in. I took these pix in my visit today as I needed a cracked plastic seat panel changed out.

This was the quickest/smoothest transaction I've ever had in any automotive service place. If their attentiveness and service is like this across the board, they have a customer for life in me.

The only thing I can say is that this is my NEW mechanic. I drive a ridiculous amount of miles and needed someone knowledgeable, efficient and not try to upsell me on things I don't need. Look, this checks ALL the positive boxes you may be looking for in a mechanic. I have other service stations in my neighborhood that I have used, but I will gladly drive back here for service. It's worth it. Initially I called for a quote a day before I could bring the car in. In fact, late afternoon. Spoke with Steve. He gave my quote and let me know I could bring it in the morning, which for me is important because I use my car for work and can't have a lot of downtime. Bottom line I was in and out in record time and the services were phenomenal. I can't stress how difficult it is to find a reliable, efficient, TRUSTWORTHY mechanic. When you find one it's amazing. 5 Star reviews are great and all but the very best thing you can do for a business is be a repeat customer. I'm a customer for life!

Partway through the repair, he got stuck because he didn't have the proper tools to get the belt back on. That's when Art stepped in. He arrived after his normal operating hours and immediately got to work. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable and efficient, but he went far beyond what was originally discussed. He quickly diagnosed the issue, helped complete the repair, and patiently waited while my husband went to purchase the correct parts, which took an additional 20-40 minutes. Once the parts arrived, Art finished the installation, reassembled everything that had been removed, and even cleared the error codes the vehicle had thrown during the repair process. Throughout the entire experience, he was professional, straightforward, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. Art came prepared with an impressive array of tools and the expertise to handle whatever the job required. His willingness to help after hours and his commitment to getting the vehicle back on the road made a stressful situation much easier. We couldn't be happier with the service and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest, skilled, and dependable mechanic. 5 stars all the way.
