This place is the bomb. Great service at a very reasonable price. If they can help, they will!

I recently took my car here for a typical Smog Check and was told that my car did not pass. I took my car to my regular mechanic and he said that nothing was wrong. We went to a smog check center around the corner and the car passed. My car is 4 yrs old....I think the equipment here is old and doesn't operate properly... I won't be back. read more

Went in for an oil change and tire rotation. Spencer did a great job and was very responsive. Took him about 40 min to complete everything. Great value but best of all they are quick! Highly recommended! Support small businesses! read more

Needed a quick oil change and Spencer was able to help me right away. Even filled up my washer fluid and filled my tires with air. Service was very professional and the price is very reasonable. Was in and out within about 30 minutes or less. read more

Pablo the owner is a very honest man and will tell you exactly what services you do or do not need. He did a great job replacing my radiator at lower price than others! read more

At first I wasn't sure if I should trust all these Yelp reviews, but when I called and talked to Spencer, he seemed extremely helpful, so I went for it. Up until then, I had been working with some incompetent and overpriced mechanics down the road, who wanted me to replace my charcoal canister (a $750 repair) but couldn't give me any clear answer as to what was wrong with it. (It was super sketchy, but I digress.) Anyway, I came here for a second opinion, and I coughed up the cash for a diagnostic. In the end, I did have to replace the canister, but Spencer told me definitively what was wrong with it, and he charged me hundreds of dollars less than the other place. Even after the cost of a diagnostic, I still saved a load of money by going to him. I only needed this repair because I wanted to pass smog, so I really didn't want to drop a ton of cash on it. Super glad to save those Benjamins. A few days later I came back here for the smog check itself, and I passed it in minutes. Love it. I mentioned offhand to Spencer that I wanted to get struts done, but I said that I couldn't afford it, (again quoting the other place's price.) Spencer scoffed and immediately said that it should cost half that price. I know where I'll come if I decide to get those done. I'm from out of town, so I didn't have "my guy" for car repairs yet. But I think I've just found him. read more

I have a 2002 Lexus. Took it here for timing belt, water pump and they found some oil leak and now I'm glad I took it here. Car running like new. Thank you Lee auto read more

Quick response by phone and in person. Nice guy. Accurate wait time. Service was fast. I was ready to leave in only 15-20 minutes.

Excellent guys! Thank you very much. Did a smog check and oil change. They gave me a discount and everything was very fast! read more

Lee's Auto Service - Smog check - Auto Repair Near Me - Long Beach, California

Fastest smog check out there! Only 15 minutes total spent at the shop! Also $50 for my smog check is awesome!

This place was easy going and the workers were nice. I need an oil change and has my own oil and filter. I was quoted a very reasonable price and the worker showed me the oil coming out of my car from a distance. He also brought out my filter to show me how it looked like. read more

I have been coming here for smog checks since I can remember. Been over 10 years for sure. Before that I would bounce around from spot to spot, but this place is the best. Very fast, affordable and most importantly honest. They take good care of you and your needs. Good hearts and good vibes. My car has failed in the past and he charges the majority of the bill for the testing about 41 something and when you come back he charges you the remainder,, which is like 8 dollars if it passes. Make sure you take care of whatever you need to do before you come back to get your car to pass. You tube videos are helpful to save a buck and avoid going to a mechanic if you can (sometimes you have to go to one though). Whatever you do, do not go to the dealer unless you have coverage from them. They will rip you off. I went to them when I thought I needed a full cycle, turns out I needed a battery and they ran the full cycle, the total was $500! Later on I found out that a cycle can be completed by simply driving. Anyway, current total is $49 something for the smog check. They are the best. One last thing if your car is not ready to pass, he will not pass you. Again he is honest and fair. read more

This place was pretty awesome. Customer service was awesome. The guy who actually worked on my car was friendly. I can't say the same thing about the receptionist guy. read more

Spencer (and team) is great! I'm very glad I found this shop. Service was professional and consistent during my time there. Spencer offered clear info and fast, quality service. I got multiple jobs done in under an hour. Thankfully, there was no runaround with the job, pricing and amount of time it would take. read more

Spenser is the best! He's honest and trustworthy and kind. He does the best job and is always available especially when your car isn't running right! He's great! His work is awesome and he is affordable. I would recommend him to anyone in the Long Beach Area read more

I moved to LB about a year ago and my car hadn't had any problems until about two weeks ago. My engine light went on and I tried to find a location where I can trust the process. I ended up here and it was wonderful. I had my car checked and it was very minor with no need to add or fix anything to my car. I wasn't charged and I thought that was so kind. I believe I was speaking to the owner and I just want to say thank you so much. I would recommend everyone here :) I also went in an afternoon on a weekday and was seen right away. read more

Honest knowledge and very fair pricing They installed a replacement horn for a 1/3 of the price of another auto service

Spencer offered me the best quotes! After calling multiple shops and searching for the best prices, Lees Auto Shop offered the best deal! At Lees, they are real and honest! read more

Spencer is the coolest. There's a lot of mechanics out there who would try to rip you off, but this place is the real deal. Thank you for your guys' help. read more

Fast and Reliable. Family's been coming here for years . Oil changed in under 30 minutes.

Great service and very professional. I've been taking all my cars and precious cars here have always had a good experience.

Very prompt service. Fair pricing. Had to have my AC evacuated and refilled. They helped me right away so I could get going.

My first visit to this shop was a couple years ago for a smog check on my 06 Honda Element. Spencer, who now owns the shop always takes care of me with great prices and honesty! As a woman, we are always concerned about going to a mechanic and getting ripped off. Spencer explains what your car needs and even gives you an idea of maintenance that you may need up the road so you can plan for it. I'm a regular here for oil changes & smog checks. With my 11 year old car I've had some awesome mechanic work done here as well. Stop by for some TLC on your car. read more

See all

Spencer too care of my issue quickly and I was on my way. Honest and reliable! My new "go to" mechanic moving forward. Highly recommend!!!

I came in a few days ago because the protectant hood below my car came off and was making the most awful scraping sound while I was driving lol. I was in the area and decided to call Lee's auto service to see whether they could take me in and check out my car on such short notice. I spoke to Spencer who told me to bring my car in so that he could look at the issue. Spencer was SO NICE, professional, and funny (he was cracking jokes! Lol)! He didn't even charge me for looking at my car and fixing the problem. I wish there were more people like him. If you ever have any issues with your car, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place! I will be telling all of my friends in the LB area as well. Thank you Spencer! :) read more

Thanks for everything fix 1994 and 1997 Toyota Carmy sedan and you are best worker to everyone who needs fix their own vehicle and I appreciate and proud of you all time and I know you are former army and navy! That's bigger honor to you and I will never forget about it all time. read more

I brought my car in after doing a DIY job on my Subaru valve covers. Smoke was coming from my hood and I couldn't find any leaks, so I brought it here to see what they could find. They were super fast, reliable, and friendly. They ended up finding no issues or leaks, and figured out that the smoke was coming from old dried up oil that dripped when I had the cover off. They were able to send me home within 30 minutes no charge! Definitely recommend this place and will be coming back. read more

Honest and straightforward. No upselling or inflated quotes. My new go to mechanic in LB!

I always like to support local auto service places so I stopped by Lee's to get an oil change. They were kind and fast with their service. I was in and out in less than one hour. Totally recommend. read more

Let's see, I know approximately 000.00% about cars so I know I'm easy prey for car mechanics. This place is the BEST though. Hands down. 1. Water pump broken. Place in Fullerton gave me a quote for 400. They did it for less than 200. Great job, car felt great immediately after. 2. Today I took my car in for an oil change to the usual spot I go to near my office in Tustin. They are incredibly well reviewed on yelp and their pricing for an oil change is fair, so I go there for the convenience of being able to drop it off before work. They told me my rear left brake was shot and that it would be $620 bucks and take 3 hours. I laughed. I then drove my butt to long beach and they did it for $175 bucks in 1.5 hours. Showed me all their work. Enough said! Go here! They are incredibly nice on top of everything. read more

This place is GREAT!!! I went to ANOTHER place and they told me I would have to spend close to one thousand dollars to fix my AC system, but Pak (an older Asian gentleman) told me (at least in my specific case) that it was just a bad relay and the repair was much much cheaper and simpler. Less than $200! I have always come here for oil changes but I'll take my car here for repairs from now on. If you stick around he will show you the problem and the diagnostic steps he is taking to find the issue. Very knowledgeable. It's been a month and my AC is working like new! Quick turn around too. read more

Being new to the area I was nervous about where to take my car when it started making a new noise. I started my search on yelp and after calling the first couple places and being told it would be over a week for them to even look at it I called Lee's. Spencer answered and told me to bring it right in. Do not let the lack of decor deter you, it's an auto shop after all. Spencer went on a test drive with us instantly to diagnose what the problem was. After that it look all of two minutes for him to fix it. He trusted us to take it on another test drive to make sure we were happy. When we returned he said "pay me in ten years". We were floored. Not only did he make room for us in his busy schedule and did it from the goodness of his heart. I didn't think places like existed anymore. If you are looking for someone to trust, Spencer is your new mechanic. We will certainly be back when we have any other auto needs! read more

He did my smog check, no appointment. Catch him early, the demand is high. He actually looks at you when speaking to you, and is honest with the time it will take to get to you. Price was better than I expected. I will return read more

Really good service for honest prices. Spenser works diligently and with the utmost care. Worth every dollar.

Come here for my oil changes regularly and their prices can't be beat ! They always check to make sure everything else is in working order as well! Trust these guys with any car problems I have ! Best in LB ! read more

Honest, excellent, nice, and yes....a little weird & less than professional in demeanor. But a good price for a great clearly professional service. I only give a 5 star rating if there's a waiting room with killer coffee or they offer to give me a lift. Perhaps my expectations are a little high...& yeah, him jumping in my car with a "drive me around the block so I can listen" threw me for a minute when I'd just met him. I'm old school like that, but thankfully the quality & price I got there was too. read more

Easy to park and fast service !!! Spencer is the person who did the smog test on my car. Totally recommend this place read more

I had to take my car in for a weird noise it had been making and that seemed a mystery to everyone. Spencer was so patient and figured out what was making the noise. Turned out it was a quick, easy and inexpensive fix. When I was telling a friend how great my experience was there she mentioned "that's the guy I've been telling you to go to for years" I suppose I should have listened to her along time ago. I would have had a lot less headaches. read more

Spenser is straight to the point, fair, no nonsense mechanic who always gets it right!

So my experience twice was not good at all. First time as someone that never got a smog check I wasn't fully sure how to certify, but i figured a respectable repair shop that's "Smog Certified" I would be in good hands. Nope. Show up first thing the morning to blaring music and no one in the shop. Finally 5 minutes later Spencer walks in almost annoyed. I told him I needed a smog check. Goes to my car walks backs. "Get your car checked I can't do smog until fixed and then drive 100 miles and come see me". Ok so I went to Tom automotive which they were super helpful and looked for trouble codes and fixed what they saw as an issue. Came back after driving 100 Miles. Walk in and it's the same guy. Give him the keys and about 10 minutes later walks back in and goes "Did you have work done recently" I say yes to his recommendation. Made me feel stupid for not getting the extra errors that the smog check caught. Told me get these fixed, without any guidance or help on we're to go. Charged me which is standard, but come to find out the fixes are strictly for SMOG CERTIFIED LOCATIONS (had to find out from a trusted repair shop). So...wasn't this place a smog certified repair shop? Absolutely awful service will never come back again. Makes sense both times I came through there was literally ZERO customers. read more
