Stopped in here last week for an oil change and could not have been happier! Their customer service is what really sets them apart. I have always felt that every oil change place is the same but after going to ExperTec there is a huge difference when a place knows what they are doing. Would highly recommend them to anyone with any car issues. This is my new go to spot for anything related to my car! read more

Still best Service Techs in town in my opinion! Came in last minute for an oil change and they took care of me. And even had a promo for windshield wipers from Turkey Day. It's raining today but my windows are clear with my new wipers. It's the little things in life sometimes. Thanks Gary and Team! read more

My mom checked out this place first. She Loved them. Couple days later I went in for my oil change too. I have to agree these guys are awesome. Female + Family friendly. No hassle. Fast. Thanks guys! read more

Gary and his team has worked on our 2004 Volvo for three years. With 150k miles, there had been work to do starting with a new transmission and struts, no small job. When the check engine light comes on, I start with them. Even when the light went on three times in five weeks, they would step up to do the job (leaky cracked hoses). One time they even did the job as a courtesy mindful of the recent work they did. As a bonus, they always guarantee the work for 36k miles or 3 years. If you have a car that you are trying to keep healthy to 200k+ miles, I would recommend the service and character of ExperTec in Costa Mesa. read more

ExperTec is one of the best auto shops in OC! Gary and Matt always provide excellent customer service. I love that they offer a shuttle that not only drops you off, but picks you up (the driver is great too)! I definitely trust them to take care of my vehicle. Thanks ExperTec! read more

Needed an oil change and smog check. Got a flyer on the mail and decided to give Expertec Automotive a try. Gary was super friendly and very flexible with my busy schedule. He provided excellent service at a great price. Love the convenience of their shuttle service. My new favorite place to get my car serviced! read more

Matthew would add the diagnostic cost to the quote to make it look like he had deducted it to the total cost. Better go somewhere else.

great service overall. made it easy, fair price, and made my roadtrip worry-free! thanks!

These guys are great! They push to upsell you on repairs but they let you know what is needed, if the car is safe to drive, when you will need to budget for tires, breaks etc. Professionals that run a clean shop and waiting room with free WiFi, coffee, tea and cookies. read more

What you see in the other Yelp reviews is what you get. Had my car towed here, not really knowing what to expect and received really good service. Honest shop and fair pricing. Will be back. read more

Another great visit to ExperTec! My entire drive shaft was completely busted. When I drove, my car rattled like crazy. I took it into another shop and they were gonna charge me $1400 to replace the whole drive shaft. Called my guys at ExperTec and they told me that replacing the whole thing was ridiculous and to bring it in. I brought the car in and they ended up rebuilding it for me for $700. The other guy almost charged me double what the guys at ExperTec charged me. I'm soooo happy with the work they did and I will remain a loyal customer to ExperTec. Thank you Gary for remaining loyal and honest to your customers! read more

Best price in town. Friendly staff who help you plan for the future. Couldn't be happier!

I went to ExperTec a few months ago because I was told i needed tires. They were busy but checked my car within 10 minutes. They told me, no, I didn't need 4 new tires, just 2. In my experience, most businesses upsell. They were honest! This afternoon, my car's computer told me my tire pressure was low. I went back to my tire guys close to closing time. They checked it out, found a nail, and spent a half hour repairing my tire. NO CHARGE! read more

Went in for an alignment and received excellent customer service, they were fast, did quality work and gave me a reasonable price. What more can you ask for? After finding out they do all types of auto repairs, they will be my go to for local repairs on my car. Thanks ExperTec!! read more

The best automotive repair place I've been to! Nice & clean on the inside with a customer work station while they work on your car. Great customer service and was able to explain to me exactly what was wrong with my car & gave me options. Definitely the only place I'm coming to from Now on read more

These guys have excellent service and go the extra mile for their customers. They know what they are doing and they do it the right way.

This place is GREAT! Mitch was so helpful with all my questions and concerns and very thorough with explaining what was going on with my car. All the mechanics very professional and nice. I recommend this place to everyone! Thank you guys for being do helpful read more

My son took his first car in on Saturday (with no appointment) and the service was completed in less than 2 hours. Further, this was a car we bought used from a Dealer and expected at least minor repair items. We were shocked to find out that ExperTec mechanics did a detailed inspection and only found that the cabin air filter needed to be changed. Not even an oil change. Pretty amazing!! I give them 5 stars. read more

ExperTec Automotive is great! Not only were they fast & knowledgeable about my car services. They were nice and let me plug in and work from the lobby- having everything I needed, from the WiFi to coffee. Such a great experience overall. Plus, I got a FREE pumpkin! Highly recommend! read more

This place went above and beyond my expectations. Their customer service is exceptional. Don was extremely nice, knowledgeable and helpful with the repair I needed on my car. They also have shuttle service which is amazing and helpful. Michael, who was the one who dropped and picked me up from my house, was extremely delightful. I'm so amazed that their customer service didn't end as soon as I walked out the door. These 5 stars are well deserved, they have earned my loyalty. Thank you Expertec Automative for being amazing! read more

Just needed a oil change. Staff was friendly didn't try to upsell me on any extras which I feel like happens a lot at car shops. I walked home while they worked on my car but they waiting area was nice. They also offer a car service if you need a ride and will pick you home and will pick you up when your car is ready. I'll definitely take my car back. read more

I took our van in before a cross country trip and Manny was very helpful in determining what needed to be done and what could wait. And he gave a discount as well. Feel better about hitting the road in our older van. Appreciate very much the kind and helpful service! Thanks Manny! read more

went in because I got a coupon in the mail. spent almost double the price and they recomend nonsense at extreamly high price.

Living in Rhode Island & looking for a Pre-Purchase Inspection on a rare car for sale at a dealer in Costa Mesa. I asked the dealer to take it to nearby ExperTec Automotive for the inspection. Everything was handled by phone across the country. Chris took it in & had the inspection performed almost immediately. While I didn't get the formal checklist I had expected, I eventually received a rough copy of the mechanic's list. Surprisingly, all was electrically & mechanically well with the car, except for a minor transmission leak, which they fixed at the dealer's expense. Since I haven't received the car yet, I can't give a final review. But, if it's in the condition indicated by ExperTec, I'll be more than satisfied. If anything changes I'll let you know. read more

Service was wonderful! I was late for my appointment due to a family emergency and they were gracious and fit me into their schedule anyways. I also really appreciated the ride back to my house so I could get some things done while my car was worked on. And everyone there was so friendly and helpful! I know I'll be coming back again! read more

I moved from Northern California to Southern California four years ago. In NorCal, I worked at a car dealership and was able to get trustworthy, reliable, and fairly priced work done on my 2009 Tacoma. Even though it's a Toyota, I'm extremely picky with who maintains it and how it's handled. I was worried about finding the right shop after my move since I didn't want to take it to the dealer. After extensive research, I found the recently opened ExperTec Auto. I tried them out four years ago and from that moment on, I knew I found the place. This crew is not only nice and caring for all of their customers, but they are also trustworthy and fair with their prices and recommendations. I'd highly recommend this shop to anybody, period. No matter your knowledge of cars or the type of vehicle, they'll take care of you every time. Thank you again for stellar service, I'll be back. read more

Always accomadating to my schedule. Great service and the valet service is very handy. Great service and honest, repleble professionals. Gary is always helpful. read more

What an amazing staff!! My entire experience was incredible and the Groupon I bought was honored without hesitation. They even gave me a ride from my house back to the shop to pick up my car! Highly recommend ExperTec! read more

I had an incredibly positive experience with ExperTec. Three years ago, in 2019, they did some work on my 2010 model Cadi SRX. It was an elaborate repair involving the replacement of the timing chain. I had to spend more than I wanted to, but I wasn't ready to part ways with the car because it has sentimental value to me. My father helped me buy it a decade prior, and he was sick and approaching his final days. Nearly three years later, the dreaded check engine light was back on, and the team diagnosed it as being timing-chain related (the tensioners and guide rails were worn). To make matters worse, the car was also due for a Smog check, and at thirteen years old, a costly repair would not have been worth undertaking. Time to put the car out to pasture. But Gary, Matt, Dave and the rest of the team at ExperTec honored a 3-year warranty for the prior work done (3-years for labor and parts is extremely rare in this industry!), and did the repair free of charge. The car is now running beautifully and passed Smog test yesterday with flying colors. Thank you ExperTec! read more

This review relates solely to an oil change, where I supplied my own synthetic oil and OEM oil filter. For first time in more than 50 years of oil changes, the dip stick showed dirty oil. Not filthy, but dirty like after 3,000 miles or so of wear. Manager appeared honest, a very nice man, but at end of day, I have, somehow...., a screwed up oil change. I have to wonder who is writing all these wonderful 5 star reviews. read more

This is the best place to fix your car. Everyone is so professional and they never are overpriced or push you with sales pitches. I highly recommend it and guarantee that you're going to have the best experience ever! read more

ExperTec did the pre-purchase exam on a car. I found the shop on Google, and I'm so glad I did! They did a thorough and great job on the check, were super accommodating and kind in scheduling me on a Saturday, and even helped me out with my decision on whether to purchase the car. I would recommend this shop to anyone! read more

I feel cheated and lied to. Took my car in for a diagnostic evaluation and told them I had my car battery light on which is why I brought it in. They called later saying it was an emissions issue and that it would be a small price to fix. I had a price in my head that I would not put into this car and just get a new one instead. I've already spent too much on repairs within this year. So I agreed to the small fix. They called twenty minutes later and LIED to me saying the battery light was not on when they got it and just turned on when they were doing a test drive. Now the price to fix is more than a thousand. It's not the money it's the fact that I was lied to because my cars battery light was on when I dropped it off and they should have given my a full picture of repairs when paying for a diagnostic service! Don't let the reviews fool you, this place has zero accountability and will lie to you. Lost my business, just moved here and was looking to build a relationship with a mechanic read more

Great experience today. Very helpful and super friendly. Would definitely come back and also recommend to my friends. Plus great comp cookies and water while I waited! read more
