    Engine out.
    S N.

    It's about time I post this review. If I could rate six stars, I would. My 1992 Lexus ES300 was in the care of Tony and Simon for several months last year, and it was a big job. I dropped it off with the assumption that it had a blown head gasket and just needed new heads, but it actually ended up needing an entirely new engine and transmission once they opened everything up and saw how bad it was (every crevice of the engine was gummed up). I sourced both a replacement engine and transmission and had them rebuild and install it for me, along with a few other minor things that needed attention. Tony and Simon are absolute professionals with a level of patience and kindness I have almost never seen before in mechanics. They are not salesmen; they are actual mechanics with total integrity and pride in their work. They never hustled me for money, they never rushed me, they never tried to upsell or charge me more for anything, and they kept my car parked inside the whole time. They actually gave me an amazing deal on the labor too, and they never even asked me to post this review (I just decided to by myself). My car has been running like a dream, and it's still under their warranty so I can rest assured it'll be fine. I ended up moving down to SoCal, but I kind of wish I hadn't so I could come back here!

    I have a strong belief that 90s-2000s era toyotas and lexus are by far some of the best vehicles not just of their time, but ever made. Ever. That being said, longevity still requires maintenance, and that is where the guys at SLT auto repair come in! They are my go to for all my big service jobs on my 2jz, 3uz, 2tr, etc that I can't do myself on my driveway. Pricing is always upfront, straightforward, and if theres any hidden problems along the way they always reach out with an update. Its hard to find a lawyer/doctor you trust these days. It's even harder to find a mechanic you trust. Look no further, these guys are the ones! I sometimes limp or tow my vehicles all the way from morgan hill if needed, I refuse to take my lexus sc, ls, and tacoma anywhere else!

    Recently had timing belt and water pump service completed with perfection. Unfortunately my alternator died recently and had them fix that too. They always take great care of my cars without a doubt. Thanks again!

    The TL;DR - SLT Auto Repair would have tried installing an incompatible replacement transmission into my car, except they forgot to actually order the part in the first place, and didn't realize it until I showed up for our appointment. The full story - I have a 2017 Toyota Sienna that needed its transmission replaced. SLT Auto said they had found a used one for a reasonable price, we ordered it and made an appointment to bring the car in a couple of weeks later. The afternoon before, I called to confirm that we were still on schedule only to be told (by Tony, I think) that the transmission had been dropped and dented and could not be used anymore. It would have been nice to have been told this as soon as it happened, not just because I happened to call in. They said they would look around for replacements and call me back. No one did, until I called back the following Friday to check. This time I spoke to Simon, who said they had another transmission with about the same mileage available, and they could order it the next day and have it ready to install Tuesday AM (they are closed Monday). I found it improbable that their vendor would have two used transmissions available when from shopping around, they seemed hard to come by. But I went ahead and said okay, let's do this Tuesday morning, but please do call me if the transmission does not come in. Tuesday morning at opening I am standing in line, but when I talk to Tony he seems surprised that I am there. The transmission is NOT there, but of course no one told me. They call the vendor, I don't know if it's to see why it hasn't arrived or to try to order it in the first place, but after some discussion they come back and say wait, this transmission is not compatible with my model of Sienna. What a complete, utter waste of time and money. After the initial transmission snafu I should have just walked away, now at least I've learned my lesson to avoid SLT auto at all costs.

    Staff doesn't put back your screws in the bottom of car. Complete dust pan almost fell off on freeway causing car accident.

    Very friendly staff. Paid for 2 oil changes. Last one the guy forgot to put my screws back on under the car after the oil change. The bottom of my car car started scraping on the bottom of the floor. Almost got into car accident on freeway. I wonder what this place did with my screws, probably sold them for a few cents... at my cars expense

I put my query about my Prius' ABS module on Yelp, and received clear, reasonable quotes from Hybrid Experts. When I contacted them, Farag asked me to bring my car in for a free scan, then confirmed the issue with my car. Then he even checked with the dealership to see if the repairs would be covered under an extended recall period. He also clearly laid out the breakdown for repairs and another thing I wanted to fix in my car. The repairs happened in a timely manner, and he also made it super convenient for me to drop off and pick up my car. From receiving the quote on Yelp to driving my car back with the issue resolved, Farag and his team were professional, responsive, patient and helpful at every step.

There are a lot of little food places in the area like walking distance so the wait wasn't terrible and they have a waiting area to sit at the shop and a makeshift bathroom area as well. I found "Hybrid Battery Lab & Auto Repair" by their bumper sticker. I've been seeing constantly while driving around town but have never been close enough to take a picture of it. One day while walking in the Costco parking lot. I saw a green Prius with this business sticker on it in the parking lot and I thought to myself, I better take a picture now at this point it's a sign that battery problems may be in my near future as my 2012 Prius is approaching the 190,000 mile birthday mark. And just like I thought on Christmas day my dash lit up with the ole "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM STOP THE VEHICLE IN A SAFE PLACE", I looked up the code and everyone in the Prius Form Chat was pointing to battery problems. I took my car to my family mechanic and he quoted me $5000 to replace it and warned me that it wasn't wise to replace the cells as it's a temporary fix that you'll be coming back to fix every 6 months or even less time. My logic is I don't have 5g's, honestly I didn't ever really have the $800 to replace my cells & committing between the Bus/ Uber/ Lyft alone will cost me more than the $812.00 the business was charging to do this procedure. This place does have a 6 months warranty, so it is just the kinda blessing I need to say goodbye to my car and get my ducks together, to either save for another car or to try to save $5000.to replace the hybrid battery, which I can't justify at the moment. I'll see if I get 6 months out of the process and update you all . Wish me luck, for my own records got this process done on January 17 2026 Happy New Year
