I also bought a new front bumper that my brother promised he would fix 10 years ago. I actually had to take two visits to Avan because my trunk flap thing of my Scion tC broke off again. Pretty convenient with getting the parts ASAP and affordable prices as well! Call ahead to see if they have whatever car part needed. Also, they don't come in the color of your car. My car is silver and the parts I bought are black so you have to find a paint shop once you pick up the parts from Avan! My car will look brand new once my paint is set and parts installed :)

On a brisk and balmy day, I sauntered into this plaza in Santa Ana in need of a specific part for…read moremy 2012 Acura TSX, 4-cylinder. Lo and behold, she ordered the correct part... a lifesaver. This former bolsa auto parts has been around since forever. My father used to order parts here all the time before he retired his auto mechanic shop. Even today, I was able to come in and talk to the owner buying an expensive part for a great deal for my Acura TSX to fix my check engine light. You should definitely speak to the owner here as I saw her juggling 2 phones while speaking in many languages (English, Vietnamese, Spanish). However she can multi-task and still cater to me, helping me to order a part that fits my car perfectly. It is located in the plaza and there are ample of parking spaces. This store has been a lifesaver for my car and it seems that the owner has a lot of spaces and inventory to store a lot of parts. Most parts when ordered, will come within 2 days. I am glad I made the long drive from Huntington Beach just to this location solely due to the convenience and value. Yes, it is just that good.

This place is either incompetent or purposefully shady. I called to check on availability of an…read moreauto part and the price. I get quote a price on the phone and its available. 30 minutes later I show up, and it takes another old man literally 10 minutes to write down my VIN to check if they have the part. They have the part, but it's priced higher. He checks with the other guy who quoted me the price, but that guy doesn't remember telling me original quote. They give me a discount, but it's still higher than what was said on phone. So you guys determine for me, whether they're purposefully doing a bait and switch and wasted my time. Or they're senile and can't remember anything. Either way, they need to all retire and shut down the business because it's just terrible all around.

After my first visit, I completely understand why they've trusted this shop for so long. We brought in my brother's van because the passenger window wouldn't roll back up. They quickly diagnosed it as a bad window regulator and quoted just $200 to replace it, which was $175 less than another local shop had quoted for the exact same repair. Out of curiosity, I also asked what they would have charged for the front brakes and rotors I had replaced on the same van last year. Their quote was about $200-$300 less than what I had previously paid elsewhere. What impressed me most wasn't just the pricing, but how straightforward and honest they were. They explained everything clearly, never tried to upsell anything, and made me feel confident I was getting a fair price. If you're looking for a mechanic with fair pricing and people you can trust, I highly recommend Bolsa Auto Repair & Muffler. They've earned a new long-term customer.

He never disappoints. The biggest testament to his work: I brought my Toyota Highlander here after insurance titled the car Total Loss. Other shops quoted me $7,469.73 (see pic). He charged me a fraction of the price and said it'll take 2 WEEKS! He had it done in 11 days. That repair was done around 115k miles, and the car is still running strong today at 164k miles. I'm confident in taking it to 300k. Fair pricing, excellent workmanship, and dependable turnaround times. Highly recommended.

A nice Vietnamese family runs the shop, and they are always super friendly and accomodating. They also have the best rates in town for different services too! My oil changes are $16 out the door...

I also managed to drive over a nail 2 weeks after I got my tires, and I brought my car in and they sealed and patched my tires for free. WONDERFUL service. I appreciate that they have great hours on the weekend also. TIP for people who don't want to sit and wait while their car is being serviced - I always take my car in on the weekends, and if I know it's taking longer than an hour... I just get a bus pass and the bus going West on McFadden and Beach (rt 66) stops right in front of Golden West College...
