Amin took care of me by asking me questions, testing out my car, and explaining possibilities of what could be causing the issue. The challenge is that it is intermittent and it's difficult to reproduce. He did his best to try and replicate it, but wasn't able to. Although I took some of his time to look at my car, he didn't charge me anything as diagnostics didn't need to be run due to no engine light appearing. I truly appreciate the support he provided, top notch. And they are easy to reach out using Yelp messages (just make sure that it sends properly). Thank you, Amin.

It's missing vinyl film shields on one side, but they left them on the other side so I don't know what happened there. They didn't color match evidence is in the picture there's clearly a line of the two different colors and I can't believe they didn't wash the truck after they finished painting it. The truck also has a weird odor inside. I'm not sure why. When I asked how much it would be to paint the roof it was first $700 then when I agreed to the 3 panels I told him I'd pay for the top on my own dime the price went up over double $1500 for 1 panel. SMH never again. So for 3 panels one being the truck bed it was $1900 then to paint 1 more panel the roof was an extra $1500 just doesn't add up

I was preparing for a very expensive repair, but Tai came out to my house, properly diagnosed the issue first, and found that the real problem was just a loose battery connection. He was honest, professional, and incredibly kind. He easily could have replaced the alternator and charged me a lot of money, but instead he fixed the actual issue and only accepted a minimal payment after I insisted. I'm really grateful and would absolutely recommend Da Guy Mobile Repairs to anyone needing honest mobile mechanic work in Hawaii.

Absolutely amazing experience working with Da Guy Mobile Repairs…read more I had a horrible time trying to get the oil filter off of my Accord; it was stuck worse than I've ever experienced and, it being my first attempt at a change on this specific model, I didn't realize how stupidly enclosed it was on all sides. After deforming it with various tools, my brother attempted to drive a screwdriver through it as a hail mary. All that did was put a hole in it and leave oil everywhere. He got back to my voicemail as soon as he could, asked for my info and pictures to give me an accurate quote and schedule, then set up a time with me the next morning (on a holiday). The quote was more than reasonable. He showed up, got to work with whatever he could use on the battered filter, but the lack of space and the state I left the filter in proved a challenge. He kept me informed as he was working, then after a while, told me he would leave to get another tool that had helped him in the past. Before he left, he went down the list of scenarios and possible labor cost increase, and I really appreciated that. Fortunately, the tool he went to grab worked on the first try. He put everything back where it needed to be and replaced the zip ties he had to cut to gain more working space. The price stayed as quoted even though it probably took longer than he anticipated, and he even threw on the new filter while he still had my car on his stands. Overall, it was a great experience and I would not hesitate to call on him again for any future needs. Definitely would recommend him to anyone in need of mobile repair.

Rose was not only courteous, she applied all appropriate discounts and got me back on the road in record time. I was close by and able to view the Technician installing the tires and he was very professional. I was also able to have the alignment completed. Thank again Cooper, Rose and Lex Brodie.

McCully Auto has been a blessing to the community, serving locals with honest automotive…read moremaintenance and repairs for decades. Since my last review over five years ago, Uncle James has helped me with an AC leak diagnosis, engine and transmission mount replacements, front and rear brake pads and rotors, a tune-up when my car was bogging, an alternator replacement, radiator replacement (because I cracked it trying to do the alternator myself), and now a transmission filter replacement. Pretty much every major maintenance or repair on my car has been done here, unless it was something I handled myself at home (the only exception being my CV axles that I saw Uncle Alan for at Kaimuki Auto). I'm incredibly thankful for Uncle James and the team for consistently delivering quality work at genuinely fair prices. I recently spent months doing drain-and-fills on my transmission fluid due to slippage driving uphill and hesitation between gears after cold starts. By the third drain, it became obvious the fluid wasn't improving at all. There's a common myth that transmission fluid lasts the "lifetime" of the car, but the reality is, it often doesn't. Just like ignoring oil changes, neglecting transmission fluid can eventually lead to serious (and expensive) repairs. In many cases, transmission work can cost even more than engine repairs. So here I am, trying to address the issue the best way I can. I won't lie, part of me hates that my car is now at the stage where issues pop up once or twice a year. Financially, though, buying a new car just isn't in the cards right now. Uncle James makes it possible for me to keep my car running safely and affordably while I work toward that next step, and I'm sure many others in the community feel the same way. McCully Auto remains my #1 choice for automotive maintenance and repairs. I've never had a bad experience, and I'm deeply grateful for the generosity, honesty, and wisdom Uncle James continues to share. I don't know what I would do without him, honestly.

He's gone out of his was to order parts specially for me when my A/C broke and he's always accommodating when I need stuff like oil changes.

He definitely relies on family and friend referrals though so if you're a brand new customer you might not get help as fast as you want. But that's just because of his popularity with local families.

He kindly offered to help fix it's appearance in a jiffy, without me mentioning it! He was able to pop the dent out and used some of his tips and tricks to make it look half decent again. It would've cost an arm and leg to replace the bumper, if he hadn't kindly offered to help make it look normal again. Kaleo went above and beyond to provide exceptional service and you can tell he cares about his customers. Highly recommended, and thank you so much!

He immediately knew the fix and he and his crew got to work right away. For the amount of physical exertion I saw them put in, I felt the cost to me was more than fair. The sheer contortion they had to perform to fix it... I really think I got a bargain. This review is not from the perspective of a "car person" so, that's a grain of salt to take. I really don't know how much such a repair is *supposed* to cost. This review is from the perspective of a stressed out human being who, upon completion of service, felt like a valued and important customer.
