A friend recommended Wayne's shop. He got my AC system diagnosed and fixed at a reasonable rate. Went back recently to diagnose a radiator fluid leak and he showed the same great service. I will continue to bring my car here when I need someone I can trust. read more

Wonderful service that is friendly, honest, and efficient. Wayne is super nice and very knowledgeable. The prices are fair too. I am so glad I found this place. Couldn't be happier with the service. Best on Kauai! read more

I drive my boyfriend's truck when I'm in town and right when I was about to go for my morning walk the passenger window would not close. I was thinking sh*t and I have a flight tonight. I called d&w and Wayne answered the phone quickly and listened to me as I explained that I was looking for someone who could help with the window asap because of my flight. He said to come down and he would squeeze me in. When I got there, the shop is huge and so clean and well maintained. He was as nice in person as he is over the phone. Real local friendly service. He looked at the truck, helped me close the window and even ordered the part so he could fix it first thing the next morning. He fixed it so quickly and did such a great job!!! Will definitely recommend Wayne and d&w for Car repair services! Bonus the Mrs is also very friendly and we had a nice conversation as I waited while the truck was being serviced. All around amazing experience. Thank you Wayne and Dawn read more

Was recommended by a friend, took my truck in for squeaking brakes Unko Wayne and his boy had the noise diagnosed, fixed, and done in less than an hour for an amazing price. Will be going here for all my repairs from now on. read more

Terrific crew and workmanship auto repair with pride. No 1/2, ALL good! ahui hou, debrak!

My driver window slid slowly down into the depths of my door. Hmmmm just the sound of a slight ping of parts unknown. Didn't hear a shatter thank goodness. Problem? Yes, I had to be at the airport in 3 hours. I couldn't leave it like that while I traveled I decided. Fantastic and amazingly D & W we're on it and open super early. Made my flight! Great job! And btw my initials are DW. LOL. read more

There are not even enough words to express the amount of appreciation and gratitude I have for Wayne and his crew. Shortly after buying my current vehicle, we discovered the engine was ruined before we bought it. Wayne tried so hard to keep it running with no luck. We ended up purchasing a brand new high performance engine and shipping it to our small island. Wayne's guys replaced my engine very fast. Now, I try not to be "that woman" who says, "My car is making this oooga booga ooga booga noise," but it happens to everyone at some point. Wayne has ALWAYS been upfront with me. He's always squeezed my car in for various maintenance and repairs. He never makes me feel like some idiot, even when I'm trying to explain what my car is doing. I will GLADLY refer D&W Auto Services to everyone I know!! They are the best auto shop on Kaua'i and we are very fortunate to have them here!! Aloha!! read more

Wow! Impressed with D&W Services' prompt and excellent service! Today, at 7:40 am, my car did not start initially. It wasn't clear if I had a problem w/ starter, battery or something else. I called D&W. Without appointment, they asked me to bring in my car for review. My neighbor jump started my battery. At 8 am, I was at the Lihue shop. At 8:20 am, car was reviewed, assessed that a new battery was required and no other parts were. The battery was ordered from Napa for immediate delivery. At 9 am., I was driving off the lot. That's service w/ Aloha! read more

This is definitely the place to take your vehicle for repairs and safety inspection! They are quick to get it done and are all around honest good mechanics! If we ever have a vehicle that needs maintenance we will go here again! read more

My car wouldn't start and I needed a good, trustworthy mechanic who wouldn't charge me up the ass! So glad my friend recommended Wayne and the team at D&W Services. Wayne was filled with nothing but good vibes and I didn't get any shadiness or untrustworthiness that I usually feel with other mechanics. He clearly explained that I needed new spark plugs and spark wires and let me know what the price of everything would be before he started work. His rates are also extremely fair and some of the lowest on the island! After he replaced the spark plug/wires, he realized that there were still problems and that the distributor would have to be replaced. He felt really bad about it as he knew this would cost me more, so he ordered the distributor using his own personal discount (which saved me over $100) and then didn't even charge me for the extra 30-45 min. he had to spend installing it! Overall, I saved hundreds of bucks going with Wayne and really dug his positive vibes and "pay it forward" attitude. Would recommend him as the go-to mechanic to anyone on the island! read more

The only shop I take my car and truck too. Wayne goes above and beyond and makes you regret ever going anywhere else prior! Aloha

Wayne and his crew are ethical, knowledgeable and work fast. I've seen a few mechanics for my car issues but will only take my cars here from now on. You can see the reputation they have by the clients that come in, I've seen city official vehicles, business trucks to local old timers bring there autos here. Also car dealers and salesmen, that says a lot and confirms what everyone is saying here. read more

Wayne defines exceptional knowledge, customer service, honesty and aloha. Wayne answered my call on a holiday, I dropped my car off that day, received a call the next morning with an assessment/quote, and picked up my repaired car that afternoon. I have never felt compelled to write a review on anything until now & wish there were a 10+ star option. I will never go anywhere else, and I highly recommend Wayne/D & W to everyone on Kauai and beyond in need of an excellent, trustworthy mechanic. read more

I thought I'd send one of my good friends here after years of going here myself to have my cars repaired. He said my friend's car probably needed a tuneup, he'd do a diagnostic on it, give us an estimate and after approval, perform the repair. It would take "2 days". 9 days later and no phone call, we decided to call him and figure out the status of the vehicle. He told us the "tuneup would be done by morning". In the morning we were greeted with an over $300 bill and a brief explanation of services performed, which supposedly included a diagnostic and tuneup. 2 days of sticker shock later, the problem recurs, and we're forced to bring the car back. A one-minute tweak and the engine is running properly. Did the car really need $300 of repair? We think not. After trying to schedule a followup appointment to complete the repair, he asked us to come by around 2pm today to apply some sort of boot to the spark plugs "normally a $200 job" which he was going to comp us for free after our difficulty. Two confirmation calls later, we show up for repair and the shop is closed, no one around. Finally able to reach him on his cel, and his only explanation, "oh sorry, had an emergency". That's it. To add insult to injury, the check engine light is now coming on about 30-45 minutes into every drive, a problem which I would hazard a guess a diagnostic would have caught or given us some sort of clue as to the real problem. read more

I took my car to the Lihue dealership to have it inspected as it was running poorly and was told by the technician it could be fuel-related (I checked w/Costco where I buy my fuel and was told they changed their filters regularly) because another customer had complained of the same problem after fueling his car at Costco. He asked me to buy and pour an additive into the fuel tank even though I asked him several times to put the car on a tester in order to see what may come out. After struggling with the car for a few days and about to take it back to the dealership (where I was supposed to leave it for a few days of testing and evaluation), I was told not to bring the car as they didn't have a loaner car so they rescheduled me for next week (?!) - very unprofessional indeed. After spending money on additives and a poor treatment by the dealership, I decided to stop by D&W and as soon as I explained the problem to Mr. Wayne (and his son Kelvin), I was told it was probably a sensor. They put the tester to work and sure enough - it was a "cam sensor" (the procedure lasted a few minutes to diagnose the problem). Wayne ordered the item instantly and it was delivered to his shop in a matter of 20m. He proceeded to install it, took the car for a test-run (with me inside) and it was running beautifully i.e. like new (the car has about 29K total miles). My total bill was apx $180 including parts and labor (believe the labor was apx $70 and part $110). Wayne did the job with a big smile on his face and, again, I would never take my car for any repairs anywhere else. His honesty, fair pricing and professionalism are incredible and unmatched. I can only imagine what I would have had to pay had I taken the car to the dealership and left it there for a few days of "test & evaluation" and what kind of potential stories I may have been told about the problem that Mr. Wayne resolved in a matter of a few minutes and never even mentioned the fuel as a potential problem but used the tester (as I had begged the dealership technician to do in the first place to no avail). Thank you Mr. Wayne and Mr. Kelvin.for saving me again - you really know how to treat a customer and earn his loyalty and business. read more
