Regardless of what my first review says, I started going here after I saw them advertising the gender neutral restrooms on the Apple Maps app. read more

OTS Auto Repair - About this business - Auto Repair Near Me - Austin, Texas

These people are the BEST! My husband's vehicle had a rattling noise that another repair shop could not diagnose. After being referred to OTS by a family member, we tried them. They diagnosed the issue within a couple of hours. The repair was done within a day. Now the car is back to new! And at an excellent price! Definitely recommend these guys!! read more

The days of the shade tree mechanic may be dying but they aren't dead either. I would give this place 15 stars for the 3 times I have used them read more

I was referred to OTS a few years ago (I should have left a review sooner!). These guys are honest, do great work, and are affordable. I take all of our vehicles there now and have referred them many times over. They always provide quality service. I also like that they are locally owned and not a chain/franchise. Highly recommend. read more

Very fast affordable service! Took my Acura in because it had intermittent starting issue. Got the starter fixed plus my cooling fan replaced. Great guys, honest work. read more

I've been living in Austin for several years and have never been to a mechanic shop where both customer service and quality mechanic work provided are exceptional... until I was referred to OTS! I recently bought a new (used and abused) car and brought it to OTS to have it fixed up for safe driving conditions. Apparently, it needed a lot of work done due to poor handling/maintenance/repairs while in possession of the first owner, therefore, costing more than the actual car's worth itself after all the repairs were performed. Here's to hoping the repairs will give life to this car for another 100K+ miles, lol. Despite the frequent wear and tear issues with this older model car, OTS has been very patient in dealing with me (as a first time customer) several times over the past month, with very satisfying service handled by Brian and his team. Fortunately, I no longer need to look for another mechanic shop thanks to the exceptional customer service provided at OTS. read more

If you are a woman, and worried about your car, being taken advantage of, or just "not knowing", you really should go see James! There is a danger though - you might feel a certain urge to smooch your mechanic in gratitude! Being new to Austin, and knowing I needed a engine remount I really just needed to trust yelp. I got a quote from two different, well recommended places, and trusted the reviews. With a quote of $431 for the engine remount, OTS was $135 cheaper than the other guy. I drove my car in, deciding that I basically had to trust the reviews. This is what I told James: "I really must depend on my car. I know the engine mounts need replacing. A tire I think is losing air, not sure about that. I sometimes have trouble starting the car, but I from what other mechanics have said it shouldnt be too serious. Ohh, and there is a check engine light. I have $750, and then I am tapped. Please fix as much as you can within that budget, and help me prioritize the rest". When I picked up the car - the engine remount was done. Several parts got replaced. It had two new wheels; a oil change and realignment. He couldnt fully diagnose the starter issue, except you guys, for a undiagnosed problem, it seems to have vanished. The car starts so much easier. Maybe something or other got tightened when they checked it out - I have no idea. He told me a few, very minor things that still need to get done, and then "within 6 months is fine". Then, he showed me pictures of parts and repairs, explained the details of why what needed to get done, explained his priorities for my car. My price tag? $699. Yes, below the budget, I had so boldly stated! Do you want a mechanic you can trust to be completely honest with you? How about one that will charge you simply what they need to get the job done? I can say this for sure - OTS are my mechanics! (and I will control any smooching tendencies) read more

I recently had to replace all 4 brake pads and discs on my Range Rover. The first place I got pricing from was twice as high as the pricing I got from James OTS. Not to mention, James was able to get the work done within two hours, whereas the first company I got pricing from told me I would be without a car for 1-2 days. James was very responsive, timely and the pricing was extremely fair. I strongly recommend using OTS Auto Repair for any of your mechanic needs. read more

This place is great. A friend recommended them after the guy I've used for 15 years retired. I have found my new guys! They did awesome work in a timely manner for an awesome price. Awesome shop, trustworthy employees and an overall pleasant experience. I will definitely be using them for years to come now. read more

I brought a vehicle to them that was in need of some long overdue TLC. They were thorough in addressing the key pain points, and also noted some others that would eventually need attention (which I had them handle in a follow-up visit). Quality work, I was overly satisfied. Very easy to work with. Whether I wanted to pick up parts up myself or if I wanted them to handle parts sourcing, they openly showed me local parts stores pricing and availability. Labor was more than reasonable and they even used a public site to show me what the average labor costs were for the specific work, around the Austin area. I highly recommend them and not just just based on quality service the vehicle received, but also from personable nature that comes with working with them. read more

This shop was recommended by Great Hills Nextdoor community member . I needed to install 2 oxygen sensors under the van and didn't want to do it myself. I bought OEM sensors on Internet and called OTS for the labor price. Spoke with James who is an owner. He is very professional, polite and nice person to talk. His prices are super reasonable. He squeezed time on the same day I called for my car. Sensors installed. Everything works great. James also checked my car for DTC codes for upcoming inspection. Highly recommend! Also, there is very good waiting room there with old mechanics type books inherited by James. Super cool. read more

Outrageous prices, quoted me $350+ (3 hours) for a simple resonator delete. Everywhere else is less than an hour and under $100. Save yourself some time and money and go somewhere else. read more

These guys do exceptional work and go out of their way to provide top notch customer service.

Do yourself a favor and just call James!! Or get other quotes and call James last, because he and his brother will forever be your mechanics!! Prices will be right and service will be top notch!! read more

These guys have worked on my car 4 times. The first two times they beat other quotes by ridiculously large margins. I didn't even bother quote shopping the last two times. They came and towed my car to their shop when my alternator went out. James and Robert are downright great people, and do excellent work as well. Shit, they even invited me to a BBQ once when I was picking my car up. I'm not kidding. These guys are worth the trip up north if you are south. Such amazing people, service, and price. Go here. read more

I saw a previous review that said, there could not be enough stars for these guys. I thought, nobody is THAT good. These guys are THAT good. I have trust issues, especially when it comes to my vehicles. I will be using them again and would have no problem recommending them to anyone. Thanks James and Robert!!! read more

My father recommended OTS after receiving great service at great prices so when I needed my transmission fluid changed I got three quotes around town. OTS beat the other two by nearly half. They gave me a quote over the phone and after the service was done they had billed it slightly higher but made an extra effort to give me the price they had quoted over the phone. This is the kind of Auto Repair everyone hopes to find. read more

OTS Auto Repair is honest, kind, thorough, and very reasonably priced. I trust him with any recommendation he makes for my car.

I have a Ford Mustang GT Convertible (which I love) and the heater core went out at the beginning of winter and I was freezing with no heat. I got several estimates from other shops to replace the heater core on a Ford Mustang GT and found out they were extremely expensive. Spoke with James of OTS and it was a very different story, found them to be extremely affordable. They did all the leg work, heck they even came and picked my car up from my house so I wouldn't have to drive it in the cold. They actually made me feel really special until I found out they treat everybody special and like family. Top notch guys, any time someone mention car repairs, I say to them, "Hey, I know some guys that can fix your problem" and give them the number to OTS. If my Ford Mustang ever has any problems I simply called them and I continue on with life because I know they will take care of my car. read more
