First time I've ever gotten a smog check and everyone was helpful! VERY quick service (waited around only 15min) and the staff was very friendly. They were clearly honest and reliable. Price was also reasonable and I'll def come back here next time I need to! read more

Super fast service. Needed a smog check and I was in and out in under 30 minutes. Super friendly guys and great value.

Friendly, fast and dependable service. Very fair and reliable. (While I was there for an oil change, they took off paint from a scrape I'd had previously - at no charge.) read more

Great service and very helpful mechanic. Helped me with running a specific scan on my car and gave insightful advice.

I had an issue the other day where a spark plug randomly came off while driving. These guys got me in last minute and were able to have me pick up my car at noon the very next day. Thankfully I live close and was able to just walk home and back. Car drives excellent now and I appreciate the professional and quick service read more

Omag's Automotive - Best guys ,very Freindly ,I've been a custumer for 15 years all my cars are service there (fleet of 12 cars) Thank you sarkis and joe - Auto Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have only had a smog check here. So, I needed a smog check ( because of course I did), but I didn't know that until the DMV told me. Luckily, I his place is right next to the DMV. I pulled the car into their lot, someone came up and asked what I needed. He told me to wait at a chair on the side of the building, he took my keys, 15 minutes later smog check complete. I'm now back at the DMV waiting in line. The overall car registration experience in California? Awful. The smog check process at Omag's? Great. read more

Best service, reasonable prices and Sarkis and his team are truly the best! The mist honest mechanic and team, ever! Been a customer since 2015! read more

Sarkis is a completely trustworthy person in an industry where that is far too rare. A total gentleman. Freddy and Joe were wonderful. A great experience overall... Good souls. Honest work. Got my old school jag running like a champ again. Toral read more

Omag's was recommended to me by a friend and they have exceeded all my expectations. I seldom have to leave my car there because they are so quick they fix it while I wait. They do great quality work and they don't add on extras or try to sell you more. In fact many times they have done a quick fix FREE for me. Wow. The owner is funny and fun and the staff is amazing. I highly recommend this place. EXCELLENT!! read more

Owner used to be good and fair-priced. Now he's moody and stinks of alcohol. 'Nuff said.

I was just driving in Hollywood..car started smoking..water all in engine bay. Cooled down added water..water came from bottom left driver side of radiator. Stopped at this shop. He looked visually and said I need a radiator for my 1999 Lexus RX300. He said radiator $450+Labor$300+Fluid misc.$60+ advised not to drive it. total $900.00. I drove it home slowly, no problem. Sat down and simply Googled the radiator..there are none over $150.00 new. I hate when my intelligence is insulted. read more

I've been looking for an honest mechanic here off La Brea and decided to stop in because my car had been shaking and I rely on my car to get my son to and from school everyday. My check engine light was also on and my cars also due for a smog check in Dec so I wanted to take care of it with enough time in case it was serious. These guys are great but unfortunately I can't currently afford the services my car needs right now. They were very understanding and willing to do further diagnosis and fix the problem but understood I could not at this time. Most mechanics would disregard customers wishes but I'm glad these guys are good ones. I definitely recommend trusting them with your car! I'll be back to complete repairs soon read more

Omag's was referred to me by Legit Automotive as they don't work on Jaguars. I took my 2004 XJ8 in for an engine oil leak. After dropping it off in the morning, Omag's calls back in the afternoon and recommends that I don't fix it due to the cost. They said it won't affect drivability and bring it back to them once a month for them to check oil levels. I was shocked by their honesty. They could have easily suggested an expensive repair. Moreover, they said fixing rattles is their "bread and butter!" As an owner of a few older cars, those words were music to my years. They have earned my business for a lifetime. read more

We came to the DMV and realized that we'd forgotten to get a smog check. We were about to try to find a place when we turned the corner and found Omag's! Getting in couldn't have been easier, and Aaron helped us right away. He was very nice and walked us through what would happen quickly and efficiently, and we were good to go! Service was a breeze, and unlike other shops we'd been to before, they took as long as they quoted us, and we were able to get back to our day quickly. read more

One day I came here for my Fiat & I have been going here ever since. I have been going here for ALL my car needs. Whether it's a SMOG check, oil change, tire patch, new tires, maintenance, etc. AVO IS AMAZING! I knew he was different when I came in and unlike some past experiences at other shops, he was real with me. He would say... "SAVE YOUR MONEY, YOU DON'T NEED TO DO THAT" Or you have 6 months before you have to worry about that. Just do this first, then you can worry about that later. I was thinking, boy this place is different. They are fair & honest and priced very reasonably, ESPECIALLY for their location. Not to mention, their ENTIRE TEAM is like family to me!!!!!! Great energy the minute I pull in. Also if you need to keep busy while they're working on your car, you have a huge plaza next to them with Best Buy, Target, Ulta, and Starbucks amongst all the other restaurants and shops there. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place. Before a road trip I come here and I feel safe with my car under their upkeep. read more

These guys are really reliable. I had them check out a used car and they were thorough and didn't even charge me!!

I spent $2378 to finally pass my smog test, I should have cost $1400. friendly mechanics but over priced. People have mentioned this before as they give you back the car after repair work & ask you to drive it & come back to check with them if the car's computer has cleared the error but if it hasn't then they charge you for more work being done on the car. I checked with 2 other places for catalytic converter parts & labor on my car & they quoted me 500 dollars less than this place. Too late on my end unfortunately. I lost another 450 dollars on changing o2 sensors without them being the problem but hey we gambled & I was aware of the gamble! $2378 dollars later I passed my smog test & it took 3 weeks & now I'm in quite a debt for it. Should have cost $1400 at most but hey people take advantage where they can I guess. read more

Omag used to be my go-to guy whenever I needed anything fixed on my Fiat 500. He was efficient, fast and very reasonable. Unfortunately, that's no longer the case. My last visit was a complete disaster. I had purchased 4 new tires that I needed installed as well as a smog check for the DMV.When I approached him at 10:30am (after first calling to verify whether it was an appropriate time, which he assured me was indeed), he was far more stressed out and abrupt than I've ever seen him before. His shop is usually quite busy, but it appeared he was now taking more than he could handle. He informed me to just leave my car key in the car and he would call me in a few hours when the work was completed. By 4:45pm, I still hadn't heard from him and decided to check in (I had told him that I needed to be at work at 5am the following morning so I would need to retrieve my car that day). When he answered, he seemed to have no idea who I was, but then suddenly remembered and told me to be at the shop by 5:30 pm. After arriving at 5:30, I had to wait 1 1/2 hours for my car. He told me that a part needed to be replaced below the battery which they removed and replaced after installing the new part. The bill was so much more than I expected (last time I had 4 tires installed, I was charged just over $100). This time, I had to pay over $450 (I was charged almost double what competitors charged for the snag check). However, I thought that my car would be in much better shape based on my previous experiences. As soon as I turned to exit the garage, there was a loud clicking sound coming from below the engine on the axel. Omag said it was just the hubcaps (which I seriously doubted), which he had reinstalled and the sound seemed to go away. However, the sound persisted after leaving the garage and Omag told me to bring it in the following day. When I returned, he just had his mechanics put the hubcaps back on again. I wasn't reassured and Omag had clearly become impatient with me so I just decided to deal with it. The following day, my car wouldn't start. It seemed my battery (which worked perfectly before) was the issue. Luckily, I had a portable jump and was able to jumpstart it, but caused me to be late for work. Upon inspecting the battery, I noticed that three of the nuts were missing from the connectors, leaving the battery connectors loose. He had failed to reinstall the battery properly. At this point, I no longer trusted Omag and just took care of the problem myself, but I feel my car is in far worse shape than it was before he worked on it. I remember Omag had said earlier that he wanted to retire. I feel that, for the safety of any of his customers that is a very wise idea. read more

A huge Thank you goes out to Sarkis & Arin for the exceptional customer service. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a good auto shop. They are like family now. read more

My favorite thing about this place was driving up and actually having someone come out and talk to me immediately! Usually you go to these places and have to get out of your car and wade through a maze of sheet metal and oily cans to find some guy asleep in a chair and he's mad when you wake him up and ask if he can help you. None of that here! Nice read more

This place is incredible and fast! I brought in a 1993 ford hatchback that had been unattended to outdoors for years, and they fixed it up within a day! Aaron was very helpful, took the time to answer all of my questions and helped me find the best options within reason. Very trustworthy. I highly recommend to everyone. read more

So..... what can I say? I'm a damsel that found herself in distress, this place was recommended by a friend and it's become and instant go to for me and my car needs... Avo is just exceptional at what he does and on top of that the most cool and accommodating kind of guy. Prices are very fair and my car drove like new afterwards. Not only that but it also looked like new because they had it fully detailed per new Covid rules and that was definitely the cherry on top for me. Really happy with my overall experience. They turned a stressful situation into a pleasant interaction, updated me on everything as things went on and I was happy to know my car, my wallet and my safety were in good hands! Just go there already. read more

I have zero knowledge or interest car related issues, so getting a smog check on my Jeep is not on my list of things I want to do. Thankfully, the guys here are helpful and quick to get things done. I'm so grateful to know about this place. This was my second but not my last time coming here. read more

I have been going to this place for over 15years!!!!!!! wow, they've outlasted many a Los Angeles friendship... and never ever done me wrong. What a great, no-bullshit, no-nonsense, consistently amazing group of people (with a brilliant and dry sense of humor, I might add) work here. I shopped around before landing on Omags, wanting to find the best price and the best work... and I got both! All of those who I've sent to them have been equally as happy as well. I've gotten quotes over the phone, after an accident with an uninsured driver... which is definitely something that not every mechanic can or will do... I've also been sent home when they said there was nothing wrong with my car and I should bring it back when there was a problem, hahaha... also something that not every mechanic will do. What can I say?! I love this shop and these people and I'm really grateful that I found them!!! read more

I went here for a smog check. They seemed nice but werw scammy, and ended up charging me $60 for a smog check that they said I wasn't ready for when they could have checked for that beforehand. I've been looking for a new mechanic for a while and if they would have been decent and checked my cars ability to be tested prior to the test I would have used them whenever I needed a mechanic in the future. Instead, they got my $60 but will never get another cent from me. There are quite a few cheaper places nearby, including ones that will let you test again for free if you fail. Do your research and don't end up scammed like I did. read more

My bf and I went to this place because we needed help with one simple task, and they refused to help him and wanted to overcharge , we knew what the issue was and just needed like less than 5min of their time, horrible service do not recommend at all. read more

I was a little stressed. I bought a salvaged title 2007 bmw and needed to get an interlock device installed so wasn't sure if I could find a legit mechanic that would want to work on the car. I went to the DMV on Formosa and needed a smog and Omag's was the first place I saw so I just went in for smog. Sarkis put me at ease right right with a funny story and then let me know he would work on my car with an interlock device. I decided to come back today for an oil change and asking him to check the brakes as the dude I bought it from said I needed both rotors and brakes. He let me know the brakes are good but the rotors are warped. He could have easily tried to bs me into replacing both and I wouldn't have known the difference but he was true and straight about it. That was huge! Definitely going to be bringing my car here from here on. Sarkis is honest and his guys are too. They did a great job with my car, I still have some other things I need fix. The battery wiring is messed up but I know I can trust them to not screw me over. read more

I went to the DMV right behind Omag's Automotive and they said I needed to get my smog check done before I can get my tag renewed. Because Omag's automotive was so close, I decided to stop by and get my smog check done. They charged me $60 (which is a lot higher than all other places) and after 30 minutes, they tell me that they cannot process my smog check because my "check engine light" was on. This is something they could have told me before the test but of course they tell me after the test and after I paid for the test. I would highly recommend that you stay away from this place. read more

Good customer service. You can trust them, they've done a good job fixing my cars for last couple years

Great service, kind people. I come here for my smog check all the time since DMV is next door. Affordable!

Well that settles it. OMAG's is the best auto repair shop I've been to in my 12 years in LA. Luis is the most honest, expedient, and downright cool mechanics I think I've ever met. The guy's been at that location on La Brea since 1985, and he's just an absolute pleasure to deal with. These are the kind of local LA businesses, and people you wanna support ya know? I'd trust my Highlander in his hands any day of the week, and the pricing at OMAG's is 100% fair and honest. You guys have a repeat customer, and will 100% spread the good word! read more
