For months, my Ford F-150 was suffering from a terrible rough idle and performance issues that made me fear the worst--a failing transmission. Two separate mechanics pulled codes, scratched their heads, and completely failed to resolve the problem. Enter Tony. Don't let the shop name fool you--while he's a master with Mercedes-Benz vehicles, Tony's mechanical intelligence applies across the board. He diagnosed the error codes, recommended replacing a single coil, and had my F-150 running like new in no time. It takes a truly smart, skilled mechanic to solve a months-long headache in one visit when others gave up. Honest, master-level expertise right here in Newport Beach. Thanks, Tony! read more

Tony is honest and trustworthy. We brought our Mercedes to him and he was able to diagnose our vehicle faster than even the dealership. He's got a great personality and his prices are fair. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to have a lifelong mechanic that they don't want to worry about scamming them or trying to sell services that they don't need for their car. read more

It's a wonderful feeling, knowing that your Mechanic has your back, I was purchasing a 20 14, E550 Cabriolet but I spoke to Tony and he suggested I do a PPI. Having all the confidence in the world of Tony and his personnel, , I was taking the seller back to his office after dropping off the car for inspection. Tony called me to say that "there was frame damage "and suggested not to buy the car. Obviously, the seller didn't believe it until he met with Toni and he was shown proof of the damage!! Tony, saved me thousands of dollars in Repair cost as well as future mechanical problems down the road ! Thank you for having my back Tony !!! read more

I wish I could give it more than 5 Stars! The business name says it all! Tony is such a an honest guy! I've been bringing my car here for almost a year now and I cannot say I've had better service anywhere in my 16 years as a vehicle owner. Don't be nervous and think that because he is located in Newport Beach that he is not well priced, he is such a a great value for such a great quality of work provided! I love Tony and his team! read more

I've been taking my 500 CLK cabriolet here and wouldn't consider any other shop. Tony is a throw back to honest, hard working mechanic / business owners who genuinely take pride in their work. I've had discussions with his crew and they are treated very well and it shows, which is important to me as a consumer. You usually get what you pay for but I find the value of work here to be very good. I sometimes price check the work just to make certain and their pricing is often half of what the local MB dealership charges. Thanks Tony!!! read more

Five Star Autocare - Mercedes Repair - My car - Auto Repair Near Me - Newport Beach, California

These guys legit. I came in with a pretty niche car, the C55, and these guys fixed an issue that I had brought to 2 other mechanics in only 2 days. Kept me informed and in the loop on what's going on all the way through the repair, as well as keeping their word on the quote they gave me. Overall, I was expecting to have to drop the car again, but to my surprise these guys had it dialed when they said, for the price they said. Amazing service, Tony up front was respectful, friendly, even gave me some good tire advice. 10/10, found my new mechanic! read more

I have to give Tony and his team 5 stars. I highly recommend Five Star Autocare. Tony has been incredibly honest with me, never pushing unnecessary repairs or services. Tony is great at explaining the diagnosis and repair options., and they always answer my questions thoroughly.. If you are ever unsure about a mechanics recommendation ; I recommend you getting a second opinion from 5 Star Autocare. They are always happy to help. It's important to make an appointment as they sometimes get busy. I have been so happy with 5 Star Autocare. They are not just a mechanic; but a trusted advisor when it comes to my C250 Mercedes. Thank you Heidi Perrine read more

Tony took the time to go over everything and throughly answer any questions I had. I highly recommend these guys!! My car is running great. Winter read more

I almost didn't want to write this review since this place is a gem, but for Tony I'm going to do it. I have a Cl600 (known for electrical issues as well as ABC suspension expenses) and Tony has been awesome to work with. He fixes what needs to get done and tells you what repairs you can wait on. Light on the dash bothering you? He's a master mechanic and can turn it off. He's always friendly and spends time with each customer and has saved me thousands (literally) and I'll never take the car to any other shop, period!! He's also worked on our BMW and nothing but stellar results. Plus, he's just a great family guy support small businesses!! read more

Tony was truthful and courteous. Took my Audi in after the dealer told me I needed additional repairs when in fact I didn't after all. Dealerships get paid commission on repair sales which I thought was dishonest. Dealer kept my car for 3 weeks. Ugh Highly recommend Tony at Five Star as he helped me with an easy fix and just a 1day turnaround time. read more

Tony and his team provide high quality maintenance and repair services with very reasonable pricing. They are professional and reliable. My wife and I have been bringing our Mercedes, Audi's and my classic '65 Mustang to Five Star Automotive for over 10 years. You will be grateful to have discovered this gem in Costa Mesa. - Bill S. read more

Tony is the most reliable mechanic out there. Use him for any of your beautiful German cars - he is wonderful and has helped me out so many times with various repairs for such a cost-effective price level. I tell everyone I know about this shop, and how great Tony is! read more

"One customer well taken care of could be more valuable than $10,000 worth of advertising." --Jim Rohn If this quote is true, I wish it would bring that much business and more to Five Star Auto. Late in the Fall, my car started having problems. The battery light came on, and it died even after getting jumped. My brother highly recommended Five Star Auto, and spoke very highly of its owner, Tony D. I got it towed to their location in Newport Beach in the afternoon, where I met Tony. He quickly ascertained that my alternator had died. Not only did he get the part, and install it all before they closed, but he also called to let me know when it was done. I was expecting that my car would have to stay overnight since we had brought it in so late! What I appreciated most about Tony is that he took the time to listen as I told him about all the symptoms my car had been experiencing. He patiently asked questions to clarify, and seemed earnestly happy to help. It's a rare thing to find an honest, talented, good mechanic... and it's even more rare to find one who is patient, kind, courteous and professional. I would definitely recommend Five Star Auto to anyone! Please note: They specialize in Mercedes Benz service and repair, but they are adept with all European cars. Tony worked on my VW quickly and efficiently. And it has been running great ever since! read more

I took my Mercedes C63S to Fletcher Jones because one of my Exhaust tips was a little off alignment. They quoted me $200 just to take a look at it.

Five Star Autocare - Mercedes Repair - Auto Repair Near Me - Newport Beach, California

My SL55AMG had a problem with the roof switch not working so I took it there to my good friend Tony the owner who at once diagnosed the issue in the gear unit in the trunk AND REPLACED IT ONE HOUR OR LESS avoiding my travel back to Irvine and back to get the car at a later time. Tony and his very knowledgeable and talented crew have helped me in the past as well. Honesty and courtesy along with soft spokeness is what is their modus operandi. I have recommended them to all my Benz and Beemer friends. Tony will also tell u what is really needed and what is not and NEVER overcharges me. read more

I recently moved to the area and was looking for a new mechanic to take care of a couple repairs I needed to have done to my Mercedes C300. I found this business and decided to give them a try. They totally exceeded my expectations and I am so happy with the work they did! Jerry was so helpful getting my car fixed and explaining what needed to be done. He saved me time and money and got me back on the road in a few hours. I'm thrilled that I found them and will definitely be going back next time my car needs some work done. read more

Five Star Autocare - Mercedes Repair - Five Star Auto ! - Auto Repair Near Me - Newport Beach, California

5 Star Autocare really has earned all their stars. This is an honest shop. They always call, explain what's wrong and quote you the price of the parts and labor before doing the work. They also do a great job for a reasonable price. They have been working on my car for years and they always do a great job. Another plus is their quick turn around time. Also, they have a shuttle if you request it. (I've never used it, so I can't comment on quality of the shuttle) Also, they always return the car washed and cleaned inside and out. I really get the feeling that they treat my car as if it was their own. read more

I've been coming here for years first with my 911 then with my SL Very professional never overbooked Tony and his team have tons of knowledge about Mercedes plus he will also take care of your exotics Well priced I've recommended that place to many friends read more

I'm sad to report back with a 1 star review for Five Star Auto. I just got my service B and had some cosmetic repair done, and Five Star is the only place I have been going to since Fletcher Jones, 6 years ago. Right when I get my car back, after I even had them up charge me on rear brakes, it has a bolt in the rear tire!!!!! I of course take it back immediately and I state I'm disappointed to pay $600 for repairs and get my car back in subpar condition. Then some older man LITERARY steps in front of me and puts his hand in my face and starts yelling at me!!! I have been coming to them for years and I am a young woman who worked in the car business and that was some BS male dominance they tried pulling on me. I will no one be a patron of this establishment and will stop sending referrals. And if you're a woman don't go without your man .... please see my first comment below on how I thought they were great.... don't look for good customer service if you're a woman from this place. The only place I take my Mercedes-Benz to get worked on! This is the best place to take your car for repairs. They're ethical and their work is superb! Great people get the job done correctly in a timely manner for a very fair price. I trust them with my baby (car) and that means a lot to me. read more

Once again Jerry has saved me! The quote from the Ford dealer for my repair was over $1,000 higher! They also told me at least 2 full days to fix it...you did it 1 1/4 days! That is huge for person that uses his car every day in business...If you need an honest repair shop, go see Jerry & Tony...They are like having the best surgeon in the world working on your cars! My wife will not take her Mercedes to anyone else in the world! read more

I've been bringing my MBZ here for years. They are simply The Best. Very thankful to have such a superb place to have my car serviced

I highly recommend this place hands down to Jerry and tony and to the rest of the crew. Thank you so much for doing such a great job to our car and being so honest . I used to take my cars to LB MBA motors never again .. read more

Jerry/Tony are great! I drive over 50 miles to get my Benz serviced here (I've been coming over 7 years). These guys are TRUSTWORTHY and not looking to just make a buck off you. They know what they are doing and keep my Benz running in tip-top shape. Their prices are very good & within reason. The dealer prices are exorbitant! I'll never forget a time I had come to 5 Star for routine service, Jerry serviced the car but sent me to the dealer to have them replace something still under warranty. When I went to the dealer, they diagnosed car and tried to get me to do $2300 worth of (work I needed). I laughed at them, because I knew that the car was just fully serviced at 5 Star! They were just trying to get me to do some needless crap at the dealer. read more

Fantastic place to go! Tony look good care of my ML350. Thank you 5 Star!
