It's Fixed! Want honest, cheap and customer service. These guys are the mechanics to trust. I looked for an A/C repair service and a friend suggested DBros Auto Repair. She said they helped her with costs and did not try to up sell her on repairs not needed. She was right! Truth is I my truck needed some love beyond just the A/C and but I needed to check them out first to see if "I" could trust them. Steve, Polo and Dave rock! After meeting them and talking I was confident and had them fix multiple issues. My Chev is running smooth and A/C cool AND they did them all and for less than estimated. If you want quality work from good people Go see Drulis Bros! read more

I went there for diagnosis of a suspension noise. They were great, felt like I was a taken care of customer read more

I came back to Drulis Bros again for an oil change. They were pretty good, and the prices were great. I was in and out of the auto shop in less than half an hour. I called in the morning asking if I would be able to make an appointment the same day. IThey told me to come back around 2. When I showed up, there wasn't anyone in line in front of me so they saw me right away. For a Honda Civic the price for an oil change with inspection etc came out to less than $30. read more

Please tell me that they're not closed! Best place ever to get my car fixed! So honest and I've never found another place like this ever!

This auto repair shop is great, easy to work with, helped me get my mom's car towed over to them also. Let's face it - car problems are a problem! None of us want to think our car is failing us :). Their prices for labor are also great. I would definitely give them a chance for your next auto repair needs! read more

I truly miss Steve and his honesty. I been going to Drulis for 30 plus years. Can anyone refer me to another honest mechanic in the Hawthorne area? Thank you read more

I'm honestly sad to see them gone. They were the only auto shop place I truly trusted. They replaced my mom's 1990 Jeep Cherokee clutch multiple times. Took care of all of our cars whenever was necessary. Everyone knew us by name. As stressful as car problems can be, you always knew you were in safe hands with such friendly, knowledgeable and inviting people. I wish Steve and everyone else well. read more

I was in the middle of a road trip and stopped in to get their opinion on a smell coming from my vents. The guy that helped us was super nice and friendly. Really appreciated him taking a few minutes to give me his opinion. read more

I took my wife's Mazda to Drulis Brothers this morning. All I needed was an oil change and tire rotation. I live close by so I walked home. Almost as soon as I got home I had a call that the car was ready! Amazing, quick service.They were very easy to work with and super quick. read more

This shop was super accommodating and had a much better price than other shops and my dealership. The location is very convenient for me and I will definitely be taking my car back for Amy other repairs needed read more

Love this place. Humble, focused, no bull sh*t. I'm glad to find a place to get my oil changed close to work. The prices are great and the people are honest. They've been around for 22 years and I hope they stay. Family businesses are the best. Even though they were busy, they took the time to answer all my questions for my smog check. They also made sure I drove off the lot carefully since I could have easily hit my bumper on the trash bin (must have happened before.) Prices are comparable to Koreatown. Call for a quote and see for yourself. ~60 for synthetic oil, I'm happy with that! read more

Okay. This is the last review on my South Bay smog check tour. I came by for a smog check because of the good reviews and wasn't disappointed. It was the end of the day. They saw me right away, and it was $43.20 (the price for post 1995 cars) out the door - no coupon needed. I'll be back. read more

So one day my car says change oil soon. I say to myself "I will..soon." About a week later the message changes to oil change required. To be honest this was not the soon I calculated in my mind but the cars message was agressively clear and even scared me a bit. I called multiple shops in my area and these wonderful people were by far the cheapest. Plus they were located across the street from my job. I definitely recommend them for any of your car needs. read more

Amazing work and the price to get work done on your vehicle is fair. I highly recommend any vehicle to come here.

Been meaning to write this review for a long time. Back in June 2019, my wife's 2000 Pontiac Grand Am has its fuel pump fail. The guys at Drulis Brothers replaced the part in less than one day and were extremely fair with the cost of the repair. When my wife said she was having concerns about the way the car was starting August the guys at Drulis had me bring it back so they could look at it. They found a couple of loose connections, fixed it up in two hours and didn't even charge me for the two return visits. Drulis Bros is the BEST! read more

I'm very grateful that Steve and the crew always do right by me. Upfront, honest, and tell me what I'll need at time of service and down the road. My brother, who lives out of state, is a master mechanic. I always call him for his opinion on whatever these guys suggest (including price) and it always gets a thumbs up. Wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I've been going to this shop for over 20 years and all I can say is that there isn't a more honest place that offers excellent quality work consistently and at the best price around. I may change cars, but I will never change shops. read more

They were amazing! He was the best service ever! He basically is the man and helped my wife with tire and wheel issues. Professional, prompt, hard working and reliable. They were incredibly flexible and went above and beyond call of duty. Saved my wife from a complete disaster and trainwreck. Highly recommend! 5 star service. read more

Bought a used car from Autonation and knew it would need some tuning up of sorts, which I wanted to do before the 5 day return period was up to make sure everything was in generally good working order. Called around maybe 7 different highly rated shops in the area, and chose to bring it here based off the rough estimate I got on the phone for a few things I knew it needed. As it turns out, it needed way more repair work than I thought despite the folks at Autonation telling us it was in good working order, and we decided it wasn't worth keeping. Omar was nothing but honest, friendly, informative, and very fair with the repair estimate he gave us. He explained in detail everything he found would be an issue. Found my new favorite auto shop and will be bringing my car here in the future! read more

A family spot that has been in mine for years, they will treat you right. To be honest, I would like to keep this place on the hush so I can still get in to see them when the whip is in distress. But, in true yelper fashion, I must share the wealth. Steve runs the Drulis Bros. and is just like your dad with a fluffy mustache. You can trust him to do you right, tell you what you should be doing and offers a friendly face every time. His team of excellent mechanics are kind and oh-so-knowledgeable. You may have to make an appt. but usually only for the next day. If you go without an appt., head there early morning to get in. Not much of a waiting room, actually its pretty grungy. But the fair and speedy service more than makes up for that. Have someone pick you up or they will drop you off back home. Everyone hates to go to the car shop, for obvious reasons. If you are like me, you gear yourself up for a screw-over. But, not here. It's just like Pop's place. If you don't need something, they will tell you. Honesty is their policy and their long history proves it works. read more

I've been going here since I started driving at 16. Local family run shop takes care of people and even remembers the different cars I've had over the years. From a little old beat up Toyota, an ancient VW Golf to my Mini Cooper, they've taken care of them all. I've replaced an engine even for a fraction of what other places quoted. Once I went in for something small and they took care of it in about three minutes and said "Don't Worry about it" I was like...HUH?? They said see you next time. NO CHARGE! They are honest guys who know their stuff. Price anyone and then come to see them, I would be really surprised if they were more expensive. Only down side is that they have a tiny little spot so if you work across town and can't get back over there before or after their hours, you run into a issue because they have very little space to store cars. read more

The grumpy old man thing old works if you are a real craftsman which they are not. Look elsewhere for quality and or service.

Been coming here since I was a kid. There pretty much like family. Now that i have a car i bring mine here. Just checking my breaks but, the work is trustworthy. read more

I love this place !! Fair prices, friendly mechanics, and they don't try to up sale you. The wait time is never long and when they're done with your car they let you know of any negative findings which I LOVE. Shout out to Polo for being so helpful. This is the ONLY place I'll let work on my car. read more

On Aug 25, 2012, went to a local repair shop in Rancho Cucamonga (AAA approved) due to an oil leak and a/c not turning on. After charging me $29.95 to diagnose the problem, the mechanic indicated I needed a new compressor, drier, etc. at a cost of $1990.27 On Sept 04, 2012, my wife and I decided to revisit Drulis Bros for a second diagnosis (had not visited in a while due to distance between my home and Drulis Bros). Upon arrival, the mechanic knew instantly what the problem was just from listening to the engine. I was told the repair would be around $1100 (included fixing oil leak). Picked up vehicle and to my surprise, the final bill was $841.65. No oil leaks and a/c working just fine. From this day forward, my wife and I have agreed that Drulis Bros will be the only ones working on our vehicles...just have to make that drive from the I.E. :-) read more

Was here for a smog test. Friendly guys. Done in 30 minutes. $43 bucks. Nothing to complain about. The only thing is it's easy to miss this while driving down Rosecrans. The sign is a bit non-descript. Just look for T-Mobile, and it's the next block over. read more

Staff is amazing..Highly recommended! I been going there for 5 yrs. I only paid 300 as of other place told me that I had to fix so many things with a total of 700. They won't tell you about things that you do not need. Operation Hours are amazing...they open at 6am-6pm M-F...drop it off this early and will be out the same day by 4pm. Finally an honest auto repair place...!!! read more

My entire office uses these guys! They're great & more importantly in a mechanic, guys you can trust. They don't try to sell you a bunch things you don't need and tell it to you like it is. I was so happy to have found such a great auto repair place! I've had them work on my car when it got rear-ended, to changing my break pads and oil. The prices are decent. The older dudes, which are the majority of the mechanics who work regularly there, are the best ones! I totally recommend Druilis Brothers. read more

I've taken my 4Runner to Drulis a couple of times now. My experiences there have been stellar: Fast, reasonably priced, attentive.

As always, great and quick service. Steve was very helpful and quick to let me know what issues were discovered.

I finally found a place I can trust. Everyone really goes out of their way to make customers feel taken care of. They've checked so many things with no charge. They helped me with smog check preparation, affordable oil changes, and so much more. They are straight up with their prices and I honestly feel like they genuinely care and want to help me. I couldn't recommend them more. Would give 10 stars if I could. read more

Fast service, good customer service and great prices. Thanks Polo!

These guys are Great, I took my 2006 Cadillac CTS to the dealer in Torrance, and was told I needed a new Motor so I towed my vehicle to Drulis Bros. They looked at it and fixed it for a fraction of the cost of a new motor. The dealership was just trying to get me to buy a new car. No more dealership for this guy. I Only take my car to Drulis Bros Auto Repair now. Thank you guys. read more

Honest, friendly, great knowledge of all makes and models. Beats all other competitors prices by far! I had a different car care shop in No RB look at fixing my air conditioner. Figures the Toyota dealer would be the most expensive. Surprise! This local shop quoted me $5,300 to fix a '07 hybrid AC! I took it to Drulis and it's out the door for a fraction of that cost. I am back in the saddle at Drulis! read more

I came in to get my cigarette lighter fixed and they ended up doing it for free!! All the other shops where charging 20-40 dollars. They're knowledge is great, they're customer service is great and they're super friendly! I will be going to this mechanic now and forever... I'm actually going in today! Thanks guys!!! read more

If your looking for honest mechanic's I highly recommend this place.they get the job done without breaking your pockets.I brought my car in for repair and got it fixed the same day.5 stars read more

Just finished up with an oil change and I couldn't be more satisfied with the wonderful and quick service I received at Drulis Bros Auto Repair! It's not always easy to find a reliable auto repair shop, and if anywhere, I would definitely recommend going to them. I arrived first thing in the morning and they got me in right away. Special shout out to Polo, the service technician that did a fantastic job with my vehicle! Thank you, I'll be back in a few thousand miles. read more

Honest service and reasonable prices. Steve Drulis was a dick to me because he felt that I had neglected maintaining my truck. He even went as far to tell me he's been working on cars 'probably longer than I've been alive'. Really, dude? Work on your manners. Everyone else at the shop is super nice, though. This is a generous and honest review, despite that ordeal. read more

So I was referred to these guys for honest service which I believe I received..but the customer service was deplorable! If you don't want to give service with a smile (Steve) you need to get a job at a desk somewhere! I don't appreciate the lack of mutual respect for your fellow human being...sad actually... read more
