“Mark helped me out in a pinch when my truck blew a bad exhaust leak at the pipe. Im not from San Mateo so i was kinda stranded…luckily he had someone who could squeeze me in and it was done that evening for a very reasonable price. He deserved the 20% tip i handed him. Good conversation too!
Cheers Mark and thanks again.

“First time customer. Htet did a fantastic job installing a new motor mount and a necessary software update. I was charged what I was quoted (actually a little less) and everything was done as promised. I am so glad I found this place.”

“Took my older BMW there with concerns about the gasket valve. The team there did an excellent job replacing it and were able to detect another issue that had gone unfixed for some time. Great communication, incredibly knowledgeable, and really good prices for the work being done. Will continue to support this team”

“So far so good! I need to return in two weeks for a follow up monitor reading after them putting in a new purge cylinoid and then go get my smog check. Otherwise, Moe and Bobby have been fantastic and treated me with respect. They have taken the time to explain and demonstrate to me how the old part was no longer working. And it's obvious in comparison with my other place I was going to that they are hungry for the business. My other place wanted to charge me an hour labor just to take a sensor reading. While they don't "lie", they are very good at the game and I could just see they were priming me to remove me of mucho dinero. My spidey senses were tingling, put it that way. Beaon Auto Shop on the other hand, though obviously busy that day and with the inclement weather complicating things gave me a free sensor reading and we took it from there. And I did not need them to, I would have paid a reasonable fee for the sensor reading, no problem. (The check engine light came on and I have to also get a smog check, what coincidental timing.) It's just that I know how easy it is so my other place seemed outrageous. And Beacon Auto Shop's labor rate is still comparatively reasonable. I am pretty much ready to bolt and take my business permanently over to Beacon Auto Shop. I am happy with how it all worked out and I do recommend them! Plus, bonus, the 25th Ave shopping district and the El Camino Real there nearby has a lot of businesses to shop at and comfortable places to eat in. Thanks, gentlemen, see you again!”

Chris has always been professional, honest and very knowledgeable. He has given me great advice on maintenance and tires.
I highly recommend C&T.”

“Simply the best in Bay Area. Lowest price in the area, plus highest quality. I was in the Bay Area for 4 years, and got my 8 oil changes and many other services from here for my 2010 BMW 328i. Never repairs anything which is not actually due. Provides you with all possible options and their detailed explanations. Even provides advice on the services he doesn’t perform in his shop. Does the small stuff for free, literally free.”

“Really nice and helpful owner. He checked my car tire pressure after a warning light went off on the highway. Was really nice and didn’t even ask for money. Least I could do is leave a good review and recommend this place.”

“One thing is for sure I will always trust Topline to work on my Audi A4. Tim the Front-end Manager is not only a customer service guy but he's a mechanic by trade. So He knew and just took the ball and ran with it. I knew when he told me what had to be done was absolutely correct.Thank you Tim, Zim and all the staff for an outstanding job you did on my car.Service: General repairs & maintenance”

I had a two hour ride ahead and Andrew and the other worker were so nice and professional BEST SERVICE I’ve received and am thankful I ran into the shop! Highly recommend and were so helpful!”

“We can define this workshop as unique, very professional, friendly, good prices, quality work with quality parts.

No lies, no deception, no scams.

He is my trusted mechanic, well, not only mine, but I can assure you that he is also the trusted mechanic for many other people.”

“Albert is the absolute best. I drive 30 mins each way just to go see this crew. The only reason needed: I trust them. Beyond that, they're welcoming, honest, flexible, and just an overall delight. Won't go anywhere else as long as I live in the Bay. They were recommended by a teammate -- word of mouth is everything for these types of services.”

“Crash Champions of San Mateo provided exceptional service from start to finish! I brought in my Tesla for a front bumper repair/replacement after it was backed into while parked. As a Tesla-certified shop, they knew exactly what needed to be done and handled the repair with expertise. The turnaround time was impressively quick, and they delivered my car on schedule, looking brand new. The customer service was outstanding, from the friendly office staff to the skilled repair team. Special shoutout to Nelson and Daniel for their professionalism and for accommodating my modified car without hesitation. Highly recommend their service for anyone needing top-tier auto repairs!”

“Claremont Automotive doesn't just set the standard for quality, value, and service, it goes above and beyond. Rafael is such a genuine and knowledgeable guy. I recommend all my friends here. I've gotten everything from battery, oil, tires, you name it here. They are moving locations so it will be a bit farther, but 1000% still worth the further drive to support the business. If you want the job done right and in an honest fashion, this is the place to go.”

“This is the best shop in the area! I have had the misfortune of needing body work done on several cars over the last year and so I am well versed on how far above and beyond the competition D&D is. The front staff, Alex, is so thorough and competent with his estimates, no surprises and he handles everything with your insurance company. Each car has been completed on time and with interior vacuume detailing and a wash. The shop even did a few extras for my elderly mom like pick up and drop off as well as buffed the headlights on her old car making it look newer as well as safer. A shop with integrity. Rare these days.”

“Adam and Bogie are great at taking care of their clients and their Porsches. They’ve taken care of our BMW AND Mercedes Benz also. Reputable and clear communicators. Their technician IVO is also very skilled and knowledgeable”

“Outstanding service! Peter did a fantastic job managing the process (from setting the appointment to prepping the documents to having the car ready for my arrival). Spencer threw in a rental car, and Proline even returned the car to Enterprise for me. My car was ready within the estimated time window (the early end of it). Most importantly, the work is of extremely high quality. The formerly damaged portion of the car looks brand new. Highly recommended.”

“It doesn't get much better than John and ABS! I've been taking my older Bimmers to ABS for over 14 years and they have always kept my cars running tip top at reasonable prices. They are super fair, friendly and give you the facts straight with no BS. We are fortunate to have a shop like ABS that knows these cars so intimately. John worked at "the stealer" for many years before opening his shop. He has always been able to diagnose any issues quickly and accurately. Honesty, consistency and quality is what you get when you take your car to ABS. These cars are expensive to maintain but having an indie shop like ABS with people who care is a Godsend for guys like me who love their older BMW's and want to keep them running as long as possible. I've taken my car to others in the area but always come back to ABS.”

“I've known the shop owner, Glenn, for decades and am familiar with his work. He's old-school in the best possible way. He does first rate work on most anything, and is especially good at older British and other European models. A lot of younger mechanics just don't have the knowledge to tackle some of the older cars. Glenn does. Highly recommended.”

“Great shop. Performed repairs after an unlicensed driver hit my car. Great communications and text updates. Came out looking better bumper to bumper than going in!”

“Wally is an honest mechanic who updated me in real time with texts/images and had great communication. Saved me a lot of money by telling me what actually needed to be done and was only interested in getting Kia Sportage up and running, not what would make him the most money.

I would easily recommend Norfolk Auto to anyone who wants a mechanic they can trust.”

“A few months ago, I took my 2018 VW Atlas in for an oil change, tire rotation, and recommended 40,000 mile maintenance. Their mechanic left air in my brakes and, as I was driving to work, the brake pedal went to the floor and I was unable to stop my vehicle if it was going at speeds above 30mph! When I drove back to the shop, needless to say, I was not happy. After leaving it to flush the air from the brake line, Jim (service manager) apologized profusely and summarily fired that mechanic (who also said I needed rear brakes replaced, which Jim inspected and said was not the case, saving me $600+). Jim then gave me two free oil changes as compensation. They do excellent work, are communicative, and, as is clear from the above, have INTEGRITY!”

“I have a 14 year-old car and lately she has broken down a lot. I took her to three different "Land Rover Service Centers" and all three missed critical problems (oil leaking all over the engine, for one). Praveen was straightforward but kind, and they got her back up and running! I am glad to have found this place.”

“I've had a great experience with these guys on my MGB. I first brought the car in when my new to me MGB brakes failed a mile away from them. Been working with Tyrone since and have had only positive experience.”

“Paul is very helpful and responsive. He kept in touch by text and he called. His quoted price for tires were not much more then the online chain store, so I rather give the business to a local shop.”

“I have been going to Mohammed for the past year or so. He has worked on both my Japanese cars, a Mazda CX-9 SUV and a Honda Accord. His quality of work is top-notch and his prices are very reasonable.

As a person who is fairly mechanically inclined, and who can do his own car jobs if needed, what I like about working with him is that he’s very transparent about everything.

You can watch him do the job, if you choose to, but even if you don’t, he will be very clear about what the issues are, what parts need to be changed and is very reasonable about the labor needed for the job.

As a result, there have never been any surprises, and he keeps you informed throughout the process.

It’s frankly quite surprising that he usually has next day availability, and I think it is simply a matter of discoverability. A part of me does not want to reveal this secret because I’m afraid if a lot of people go to him, I won’t be able to get time with him that easily. ?

Anyhow, he’s a good mechanic, give him a try.”

“They won't be able to start the repair for another week but that is okay. So far Europa has been very pleasant to deal with and their estimate was very fair.”

“Got my smog inspection completed here for the first time as a walk-in. Prices were listed in the office (varied by model year); I was billed accordingly, with no surprises. Benjamin was cordial and efficient in providing service, both over the phone and in person. Would recommend.”
