    3 foot long screw driver. For those BIG SCREWS!!
    Aaron K.

    Selling a car. It's a lot easier to sell a used car private party style if it's already smogged. We are on a time crunch. So I called G8 on short notice and was told I could just swing in. Took my family member on my lunch break and in only 20 minutes we'd passed our smog check and we can sell the car now. These gentlemen are always polite and friendly and I woulda felt entirely confident sending my niece alone. But the truth is I just wanted to swing by and say "hi" (and see if they wanted dibs on a used Camry..) Anyways. This is the ONE & ONLY smog shop I recommend.

    Where can I get $30 coupon?

    When you arrive ask them for the Yelp discount. Then they will ask you to like the shop on Yelp and once you do that the coupon will pop up on your phone. I think it's easier if you have the Yelp app on your phone but probably works on web version… 

    How much is the smog test?

    It's $50 total after the $30 Yelp discount offer

    I've brought a 2012 Lexus to them a couple of times over the past 12 months. The first time I…read moreasked them to take a "once over" to see what needs to be worked on, if anything. They were extremely honest and advised that the car was in great condition. The brake rotors will eventually need to be refinished due to slight warping, but it was nothing pressing. All that was needed was an oil change and fluid top offs, which they took care of at a very reasonable price. I brought the car in again recently for an oil change. Quick and easy and inexpensive service. Although I've only used their services twice, I opine they are quite trustworthy.

    If you want the best for your car, Auto Logic in San Bruno is the way to go…read more For a lot of people like me, it's the ONLY way. Me? Repeat customer for life. The deets: I have a 1999 NB Mazda Miata with a rebuilt engine, but your mileage may vary. Let me start off this review by saying, good "Mom and Pop" mechanics and support staff are hard to find. To wit: PR Motorsports in Hayward closed a few years ago because the main and only mechanic had "an offer he couldn't refuse." When Mr. Mazda changed owners due to unforseen circumstances, well, I'll stop short there. What Auto Logic delivers is a world-class auto experience in every category: Customer Service, Communication, Attention to Detail, Value, Service and All-Around "Good Karma" vibe. My auto service need was fixing a leaky engine (from the aforementioned rebuild) that was LONG overdue. After an initial assesment, the estimate was up to a 2-day job and co$t wise, ended just being a little "teensy weensy" over the initial estimate price. I didn't care, because the constant calls to my cell phone regarding updates eased my concern. Timewise, the job took just a little over one day. That's it really. Only to say that I forgot how beautiful the drive is on H280 to and from my locale in the South Bay.

    When Mike named his auto repair business, "Extra Care", he truly meant it. Over and over and over…read moreagain, he has gone above and beyond to help me. First and foremost, there isn't a more honest auto mechanic on the planet, with regard to pricing, with regard to diagnosing the problem, and with regard to how long the repair will take. Every time. Full stop. He's reliable. His expertise is extraordinary. He's on time. He would never ever overcharge or pad the bill. I'm a woman alone, and I cannot tell you how many times he's literally rescued me, so much so, that I feel absolutely blessed that he's my mechanic. Seriously.

    This is a more accurate account of what happened:…read more I came to this shop because my air conditioning on my van stopped working and I wanted to see what the problem was and how much it would be to fix it. This business had great reviews on yelp and google so I wanted to try it out. And I wanted to see if this was a shop I could regularly come to as I recently moved close-by. I walked in and after roaming around to find someone, I started speaking with an employee who said the owner Mike was not in. He said in order to inspect the air conditioning, it would be at least $200 which is also their price for an oil change. So I should just get an oil change and they would do many things including looking into the air conditioning. He didn't say it was a full air conditioning check. Yet he said they could let me know what the problem might be and he would note it. I didn't really need an oil change. I don't think I was even half way there. I decided to try it out and see how this place was. The owner Mike called me back multiple hours later letting me know my car was done. I asked him about the air conditioning and he said he didn't even look into the air conditioning and that I came for an oil change. He said it would be $240 to look into what the problem was with the air conditioning. He said that was just to inspect it though and no guarantee of fixing anything. I was irritated and he then told me I was a cheap person. We were on speaker phone in the car with my girlfriend and her friend who both said they didn't like this guy, were not comfortable with him, that he didn't know how to talk to people, the way he spoke was not professional, and that I shouldn't work with him, because there are other mechanics I could go to that were good. Ultimately I decided to go pick up my car. It was a very awkward conversation with the owner in his little office room. I went to pay and I wasn't very comfortable paying, because this is not what I came there for. I decided to pay uncomfortably and observed the way the owner Mike was and he seemed pretty arrogant and with an attitude after done of 'here are your keys. Go walk over to your car and get it yourself.' I was trying to get input on what he saw in the car on his service as well and he casually mentioned multiple things he saw and didn't seem interested in explaining much at all. Really weird experience here especially contrasting to the other good reviews for this business. I guess he goes above and beyond for other customers. Wasn't the case with me.
