Steve and team did a great job on my RX400h replacing the Water Pump & Timing Belt kit with OEM parts. Highly recommended. They will provide recommendations on what's required and how long you'll need before it becomes necessary. Let's see if I can get another 100k out of my car and get above 300k with this almost vintage still averaging 30+mpg. Thank you read more

Steve and his team always provide top notch service for our Lexus! We would recommend Luxury Motorworks to all friends and local residents.

Great experience working with Steve again. Very reliable, professional, and the 90K service on my Lexus RX 350 was handled smoothly from start to finish. Highly recommend. read more

I have been getting my Lexus 330 serviced at Luxury Motorworks for over 15 years. In the past, I have never owned a car for more than 9 years. Thanks to Steve, my Lexus runs great with close to 200K miles on it and I have been driving it for over 20 years. That speaks to his knowledge and care for his patrons. Plus his prices are reasonable. He has always gone out of his way to help me (I have made a few 'emergency' appointments that he has accommodated). I can go on, but the bottom line is that Steve is honest and I trust him to keep me driving a safe and reliable vehicle. read more

It is really hard to find an honest mechanic, but look no further, Steve is your guy. Very knowledgeable, polite, and genuinely wants to help you. I highly recommend bringing your Lexus/Toyota here. The service is great and the rates are reasonable. read more

Steve is the man. Found him on yelp as he came highly reviewed and I see why. I brought Steve a salvage title Lexus for a pre-purchase inspection and he went above and beyond letting me know everything he's noticing inside, out, above, and under the car along with diagnostic test. I couldn't have asked for more from Steve. He saved me from possibly making a terrible investment. I will forever work with Steve as he is INCREDIBLY knowledgeable and a Lexus pro. WELL WORTH IT! Thank you Steve! read more

Steve Larkin is a GOAT mechanic; he is hands-down the best mechanic I've ever worked with. From the moment you walk into his shop, you know you're in good hands. He's honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about cars and helping his customers. Whether it's a simple oil change or a complex repair, Steve takes the time to explain everything in plain English and never tries to upsell or push unnecessary work. The shop itself is clean, professional, and well-organized -- it really lives up to the "Luxury" in the name. He works on a wide range of vehicles, but specializes in Lexus. His attention to detail and quality of service makes you feel like you're driving off in a brand new car every time. What really sets Steve apart is his integrity. In an industry where trust is everything, Steve has earned mine 100%. I recommend Luxury Motorworks to anyone looking for dependable, top-notch automotive care. Support local and give your car the best -- go see Steve or even give him a call and he will help you! (I bring all 3 of my cars to LMW) 10/10 read more

Fixed my windshield wipers and headlamp reasonably, and buffed my cloudy lights without charge! Fast and friendly, thank you Luxury Motorworks! read more

I recently purchased a higher mileage vehicle. I had researched Lexus mechanics, and Steve Larkin at Luxury Motorworks came out on top on reviews. I knew I would have to do reconditioning -- doing maintenance and replacing items on a higher mileage vehicle. Steve gave me a detailed list of items that he recommended we do now, and those that can wait. He worked within my budget and provided a Lexus loaner. He was professional and went out of his way to explain things that he was doing. When I went to pick up my vehicle, he was patient and answered my many questions. read more

Luxury Motorworks - Auto Repair Near Me - Monrovia, California

I used to take my cars here like 10 years ago and Steve always did really good work. I recently remembered the name of the shop and sure enough they were still in business. I recently had Steve take care of a nightmare issue that came up and Steve made sure to take care of me!!! I will never take my Lexus to anyone else!!!! read more

Steve and his crew performed a major service on my 2020 Lexus RX450h and replaced all four tires. I have never had such an incredible experience with an auto repair facility in my life. I have always gone to the dealership because that's what I thought I had to do. Boy was I wrong! Not only did I save a ton of money compared to the dealership quote, but my car was done on time when promised, it was given back to me exceptionally clean, and I was able to secure a Lexus loaner vehicle for the day. I had no idea a place like this even existed until I did a Google search. Thank you Steve and Luxury Motorworks, for making me feel comfortable and safe. I highly recommend Luxury Motorworks and I will never go anywhere else to have my Lexus serviced. read more

Totally weird that a review that I wrote a while ago disappeared. Well, anyway, Steve Larkin is the owner of Luxury Motorworks. He provides nothing but top notch service. We have been going to Luxury Motorworks since our daughter was a toddler and she is now a college freshmen!! Steve goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable about your car. Especially since car repairs make some of anxious - ME! He has a really nice waiting room or you can borrow a "shop car", if you make an appointment. Steve and his staff are A1+ and I highly recommend him and his business. Thank you, Steve!! read more

I feel like I have a new car! Steve and his team did a great job fixing and getting my 2008 Lexus in tip top shape! I appreciated all the communication Steve provided. They went above and beyond in not only fixing my issues but also gave her back to me clean and polished and quicker than quoted. Definitely recommend these guys! read more

I took my vehicle there for some repairs and maintenance. Steve was very helpful and accommodating. He explained everything to me and made the whole experience very smooth and easy. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy mechanic. read more

I found Steve to be very condescending when I had a difficult to diagnose problem. He ended up charging me close to $200 in labor for about 30 minutes of work that required no parts. No computer diagnostic or special tools were involved. He just needed to fix a bolt. I'm glad he fixed it, but that was the last time I'll be seeing this place. Hasta! read more

Called in to see how much it was to replace parts that I thought were problems. Steve told me to just bring in my car and they'll check the car for me. Took my car in they figured out the problems and Steve laid them out for me. I usually work on my own cars but I just don't not enough time to do that anymore. One of my main problems was the power steering which i thought was leaking but they found the real problem and fixed with within the exact time frame that I was told (like on the dot). Steve is a great guy, friendly, and helpful. I would definitely come here again and recommend to friends. The price is reasonable, especially that I know first hand how labor is to work on a car. Their waiting area is nice and clean. Their tools area that you can see from the room is well organized and clean also. Thanks Steve! read more

Luxury Motorworks - Lexus specialists, old or new - Auto Repair Near Me - Monrovia, California

This place is awesome, Steve is a great guy and very knowledgeable. They do a excellent job of fixing your vehicles problems. Highly recommend this place, especially if u drive a Lexus or Toyota. Prices have always been fair and work is top notch. read more

My Lexus ISF had a valley coolant leak which requires extensive disassembly and know how to repair. Steve and crew fixed it without any additional damage. He did such an awesome job I had him replace my transmission and rear differential fluid. Steve is way more knowledgeable about Lexus and Toyota vehicles than dealer. Labor price was better than expected. If you have a Toyota or Lexus there is no better place to get it service than Luxury Motorworks. read more

Steve and crew have been pulling the heavier maintenance duties on our car since '05. Fortunately Toyota builds them well that the car is reliable and with the service attention from LM they keep on going. They've done 2 timing belt services on this car and the last one they refreshed the aged leaking valve cover gaskets, motor mounts, transmission selector seal and radiator replacement. Steve also pointed out tire wear issues so while the car was in he took care of getting the tires replaced. That's service! Honest evaluation, no up sell, fair prices for the parts and workmanship performed. Can rely and trust Steve and crew to come through. BIG thanks! read more

Steve helped me by servicing my RX400h right before a big road-trip. Got all the maintenance done on one day! him and his team did an amazing job and expended all resources to help me out. read more

Based on a friend's recommendation, I've been going to LM for the past several years. Steve and his team maintain my older model Lexus in great condition. They are competent, honest and reliable. They will tell me if the maintenance need is urgent or if it can wait, e.g. my tires are worn but still good. The dealer tried to sell me new tires prematurely. I strongly recommend this business. read more

I'm glad I found this place and believe them to be honest and thorough giving excellent service well above and beyond the dealer experience. Conveniently located and they have loaner cars if you need one. I highly recommend you give them a try. read more

I am.a DYS person. Found Steve here on google and am I happy I did. Straight to the point, provides you options with the risks and rewards of each. Appointment honored and service was prompt. Highly recommend! Got a great vibe out of this place! TY Steve! read more

These guys are the best! After going to the Lexus Dealer and being completely unsatisfied, Luxury Motorworks was there for me. Not only did they get me back on the road in record time, they saved me over $1,000.00 on what the dealer wanted to charge me. Thanks Steve! You and your team saved the day! ps: idk why Yelp is saying I'm from Frisco, I'm am from SO CAL! read more

I started coming here because of a lot recommendations from online forums, specifically my.is (then is300.net). I took my brand new is300 here for its first oil change and continued doing so for around 60k miles. At the start it was a bargain and well worth the drive to Monrovia. Gradually their labor rates inched up to the point that they were actually comparable to the nearby Longo Lexus. I still kept coming to LMW because I liked Steve and trusted him. Then I guess Steve decided he had enough regular clients and started turning down the service quality. My experience with LMW since then has included: - Steve yelling at me because his staff screwed up - My shifter being installed backwards and blocking my handbrake and the car delivered to me as if this was acceptable - Numerous broken O2 sensors discovered on the drive home via check engine light (do they even test drive the car?) and then replaced at my expense This was once a great place, but I cannot say a single good thing about it anymore. You are much better off paying slightly more at the dealer than having LMW break something while they try to change your oil, and then yell at you before asking you to pay for your key. read more

Luxury Motorworks (LMW) is my hidden gem. I learned about LMW back in 2002 when I bought my 2002 Lexus IS300 5 speed. Back then it was a tiny garage run by the owner, Steve. My first experience was for him to install my car's sway bars and race pipe, and he did a fabulous job. Fast forward to 2008. LMW is now a bigger entity with several bays and all the amenities to rival any Lexus dealership. LMW provides a computer with internet access, complimentary soda/drinks and food, loaner vehicles, and internet accessible service history. Despite the shop being in Monrovia, I still trek out there to get my Lexus serviced because of the trust I have gained from Steve and his crew. I know that I will get the highest quality service for my IS300 and will not be ripped off in terms of labor or parts. So if you need your Lexus or Toyota serviced, make sure you give Luxury Motorworks a chance. Go Trojans! Fight On! read more

I always had my car serviced at the dealership, and they quoted me an exorbitant estimate on 2 repairs. For 1 repair, Steve suggested how I should deal with the dealership who ended up fixing the problem for free. As for the other repair, Steve took a closer look and determined it wasn't necessary. Instead, he did some other less expensive work. Needless to say, Steve helped me save a lot of money. He is honest, compassionate and willing to help. He has your best interests in mind. I'm never going back to the dealership again. Car wash is complementary at Luxury Motorworks, and they provide a loaner car if needed. read more

This place is awesome! Steve went above and beyond to help me resolve an issue I was having with a luxlink module for my SC430. Mind you I bought and installed this product close to 9 years ago. This level of after care almost a decade later is beyond comparison and shows that LMW cares about customer service bar none. 5 stars across the board! read more

I can't say enough good things about Steve and his great company Luxury Motorworks. The work is excellent, fair, honest and very accommodating to his customers. I live downtown and wouldn't normally drive so far to have my Lexus serviced; but they are the best! read more

For some reason my review didn't get posted....I must re-post this so people know how good Luxury Motorworks is. **paste from 07/04/08 review*** Luxury Motorworks does great maintenance work. At least they don't try to fix our lexus for something we don't need. Even if we need, their prices are cheaper than dealers. I highly recommend Steve, he is such a honest professional. I wouldn't trust other people with my car other than Luxury Motorworks. read more

Steve does great work at a reasonable price and absolutely backs up his work. Could not be happier or recommend them more.

I only trust my Lexus at one place: Luxury Motorworks. Great Honest service, friendly atmosphere, and competitive pricing. If you go, tell Steve that Don sent you. read more

I'd rather stick glass in my eyes than deal with auto repair / maintenance. I'm the pushover nodding "sure, yep" while cursing that my college education didn't cover catalytic converters. When I get home and double check what Steve tells me on my testosterone fueled car forums, turns out he's not trying trying to get over - and he's damn cheaper than Longo and Glendale. This guy LOVES cars and takes pride in his customer service. Bonus - he hires fun front desk ladies that make me feel comfy while waiting...not like I'm walking by a construction zone. read more

I have two Lexus vehicles, been shopping for a good shop with great pricing to perform items too big for me. Routine maintainable is a no brainier for me, just don't want to tackle the bigger jobs. Shopping for a timing belt/water pump maint I was point to LMW by ClubLexus. Steve was more than willing to provide a solid est via email, not ballpark, a hard est! And the lowest price I had found Rode to his show for a look see, found a well equipt, clean, busy, professional shop! I was impressed. Steve spent time talking with me, being a LEO Ret, I can tell BS when I hear it. Straight shooter, forthright and will share info with you even if that info steers you from having work done by LMW. During my talk it was my pleasure to dial back my RX timing belt and bring my SC in for a more pressing issue. Once there several other important issue were found, no pressure and fair pricing. I'm talking motor mounts, ball joints, alinement, tranny service at a price I felt was exceptional, and all the work was done in hours! I will be back with my RX read more

Steve and the rest of the staff at Luxury Motorworks has been taking care of my cars for the past 10 years. I would not go anywhere else nor would I trust anyone else to care for my cars. Steve is a man of integrity...which is very hard to find these days. When I sign off on an invoice, I have no doubt in mind that it is fair and accurate. I recently took my car in for service. After looking at my car, Steve called and said I needed new tires. However, prior to calling me, he did his due diligence and worked with his tire supplier to provide me with the best possible deal for new tires. He was trying to find me tires that would last longer than the ones I had on the car prior. He also made an adjustment to the camber so that it doesn't wear the inside of the tires prematurely. I am so happy with his recommendations! My car drives flawlessly! I am not a person who likes to drive but after getting it back this time around, I have been offering to drive! The other cars I have taken to LMW were non Lexus cars and I have NEVER had any problems with any of them. If Steve ever felt he couldn't provide his customer with the best service possible, he would be up front about it. Lastly, my Lexus is 10 years old but still drives like new...all thanks to LMW! read more

I found Luxury Motorworks on Yelp. They're 4 minutes away from me which is great. I wanted a full inspection on a used car I just bought and based on all the positive reviews I decided to give them a call. Steve answered and helped me out. He was very friendly and willing to check out my car right away. Once inspection was done he went over the things that needed to be done and things I should keep an eye on. I really appreciated Steve going over everything with me. Fair prices and I never felt pressured. Thank you. Hopefully my car never needs anything serious but I will definitely be coming back if work needs to be done. read more

I brought my car here to get my front brakes done and I couldn't be more glad I did. Steve was awesome. Service was awesome. The cost of getting my brakes done was even more awesome when compared to what the dealer wanted to charge me! I plan to bring my IS300 here from now on. Thank you to Steve and the whole crew @ Luxury Motorworks ! read more

Steve is without a doubt the BEST!! He is super helpful and kind. He always provides truly valuable service, not only to your car but to the customer as well. Thank you Steve!! read more

I was recommended to go to see Steve by my coworker. It was a bit far for me, since I live in LA, but it was worth the drive. I was having issues with my transmission and went to another Lexus specialty shop near me, but after flushing my fluid and cleaning out the torque converter solenoid, my check engine light came back. Steve had experience with other Lexus IS' with this problem and recommended doing another flush with some cleaning solution, and it helped my transmission. He seems very caring about his customers. I will definitely be back for future services. read more

Steve is professional and funny! Staff was friendly and handled my car with care! Place is super clean! My experience was definitely memorable and the prices are affordable! Would recommend this place to friends and family! read more
