    Here's my experience. I called and said I'm going out of town for 3 days I'll drop the car off Monday am. Drop the car off, get sent the attached bill. They charge a ~$150 fee to look at the car (not applied to repairs). Then it was time to do some market research on the cost of repairs. Turns out, these guys are 2x the going rate. Then they call you non stop to proceed with the work. If you tell them no, they continue to call hourly demanding $100/day storage fee until you pick up the car.

    Stellar service and quality at fair price. Not the least expensive but this is where you get what you pay for.

    How much does a smog check cost?

    Do they service Lexus, Acura, & Infiniti cars, too? I don't see those brands listed on their building, so was always curious.

    I brought in my Lexus IS 250 and they did a good job of replacing a front cv joint and rear axle. They also use OEM parts for Lexus, if available.… Read more

    Had my car towed back to Japanese Auto Car - they correctly assessed the needed repairs and got me back and running for under $300.

The pricing is worth the level of assurance I received, especially with the warranty and follow-up. I needed my vehicle turned around quickly, and they accommodated my timeline without cutting corners. What stood out most was that I never felt pressured at any point. Instead, they went out of their way in a respectful and professional manner to earn my business. As someone who usually wants a second opinion, I appreciated how they clearly explained what needed to be done, why, and showed proof of the work. They delivered exactly what I needed and got my vehicle back to me on time. I'll gladly continue to bring my business here moving forward.

The staff was incredibly attentive, honest, and welcoming from the start. Even though it's a smaller shop, they have a comfortable waiting area with free coffee, snacks, and water, which was a really nice touch. They took care of my oil change and filter without an appointment and finished in less than an hour and a half. What really stood out to me was their honesty and generosity -- they even told me my next oil change would be free, which I've never experienced before. I've been to dealerships and many other auto service places around the Washington area over the past 20 years, and I can truly say this level of service is rare. This was my first visit, but based on this experience, they've earned my five stars. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend them!

We're also sure there are other customers that have had whatever situational friction worth considering. That said, I doubt the issue lies with Cap Hill Auto. Mr. Charucksiri - Chris - has now over the past couple of years unfailingly rendered repairs and maintenance efforts of the highest quality on-time and within (sometimes under) budget. It's to the point where I texted my partner that he managed to erase history. Your opinion - and mileage - will vary, I hope.

My Audi Q7 broke down last week and was inoperable for six days. Ben took my call and kept me calm and focused while we tried to figure out what exactly was going on with my suv. After a few minutes on the phone we thought it was best to have it towed to the nearest shop a few miles away (by the way, this was an evening/after hours call). Ben helped get me a tow and offered to send me a car to be driven home. I opted to walk down the street to a local restaurant to take advantage of my stranded situation (that's an entirely different story). Back to my review. The next morning the Nielsen team helped me understand what was going on with my suv, the options available to me, and provided a detailed break down of the costs associated with the five years of neglect and work needed to be sone to my suv. The number was a big number but there is a cost associated with having skilled technicians on staff to do the work and do it right. I was ok with this and they were kind enough to work with me on the price. Through the entire process, Ben and his team kept me in the loop at all stages of the service, until my car suv was ready for pick up. I recommend anyone looking for a hard-working, honest team to service your car or SUV to look no further than Ben Nielsen at any of his locations. My wife and I often use one of their locations in Alexandria on Colvin street because it's closer to home, but when my Audi broke down, skyline became the best option. There's no financial incentive for me to give this review only the gratitude, gratefulness, and my overall desire to thank the team for what they did. Thank you Ben and the Skyline team!

Sometimes the work is fine and sometimes its not. Too often I drive out with a new problem that I did not have before. A year ago this happened with the Steering Gear Box, which started making a grinding noise as soon as I left the lot. I had to bring it back and pay for a new one. Today, I brought it in for a few minor issues and an inspection and oil change. I also asked them to look at the rear end because I was sometimes experiencing a light "clunk" when I would drive over bumps. They told me the rear differential was making that noise. It seemed odd to me that the rear differential would be the cause. So I told them it was not a big enough issue at the moment to justify $3,000 for a new rear differential. I drove it home and - voila - the rear differential is now making a grinding noise (it was not before). The clunk is still there, but that is not on them. I am not going back because I never know if I am going to drive out with more problems than I came in with.

The thing I appreciate the most is that they are very open and honest about what actually needs to be fixed vs can be deferred. I've also always felt comfortable declining services and never felt pressured to get anything that I didn't need to. One time we had a tire puncture and thought we were going to get it repaired at the shop but quickly realized we would need all four tires replaced so decided to get it done at Costco tire center. We asked if they could help us put the spare on so we can drive the car back and they did everything with no questions and free of charge. Highly recommend!
