Well where do I start Sunny was not only professional but very knowledgeable he took in my 1960 Impala the same day I called him and fixed the engine problem within a few days after receiving the car parts. Great work and he will be getting all of my vehicles from here on. Thanks again Sunny

I happened across this wonderful place when I blew a tire while driving to work on 280. I was terrified but managed to make it the 2 miles to this station and was welcomed by the most lovely, kind and reassuring man named Sunny. He helped calm me down immediately with his gentle, understanding manner, and I left the car with him without hesitation, took a Lyft to work and returned the following day to a complete and very thorough tune-up, new tires, alignment, new brake pads and multiple other necessary adjustments and replacements which have probably given me another 5 years of life in a car I was thinking I needed to replace. He is a lovely, kind and exceptionally skilled mechanic who did a re-alignment check 2 weeks later for free just to confirm that all was well. Even though I live in Mt View, I will continue to use his services in the future. The drive will be well worth it.

Guy changed my oil and rotated my tires in about 10 minutes…. the guy did it late night for me and the whole situation seemed weird. I was wondering how the oil change was about 40 bucks…. Well there was no mileage sticker put on my dash, and the front wheel lug nut was jammed on the driver side tire and crooked after he said he rotated the tires…Took it to another place next time and they showed me the crooked and jammed lug nut. It took a little time but it had to be broken off to be fixed and they gave me a free one and put it on. The customer experience was much better and I was not be going back to this San Mateo spot. Too good to be true. A 10 minute tire rotation, oil change and about 40 bucks…

Drove from Sac to SFO to drop ppl off a few nights ago and as soon as i park in the garage, tire sensor starts going off that i am slowly losing air. Every shop is closed, all roadside assistances will only tow to tire location which again are all closed. I had to go back that night. We find this one open but by the time a tow arrives, they too will close. I called them and told me to put in some air and drive over if possible. I still had some air in the tires so i Drove my car very, very slowly there and fixed it promptly. Thanks so much for friendly service, a job well done and being so available!

Sunny (the owner and chief mechanic) has fixed several issues with my BMW 2011 328 x driveHe has become my absolute Go- To mechanic for any problems I have, large or small with my car.The prices are very fair and the service quality is unmatched. He will send you photos of your old vehicle parts and show you the old parts that were removed, the new parts added and explain how the problem occurred.Although he is a popular mechanic in the area, he will get work started on your car quickly and will often have it finished within 24 hours (depending on issue).Work done on my car: air pumps replaced, gaskets replaced, coolant line, all break pads replaced, tires replaced, brake sensors replaced, engine fan, alternator.I drive my car hard and put extra pressure on the valves and gaskets so I need a good mechanic that is honest and is there whether I need him and I found that with Sunny. I have recommended him to several close friends and know they will be in good hands.Great guy and has a good team- highest recommendation. 11/10

"Shell- Laurelwood" is the Shell Gas Station at the Laurelwood Shopping Center. It's address is 1400 West Hillsdale Blvd, and it's located near Hwy 92 & West Hillsdale in San Mateo. This station has a prime location right next to the freeway, and on a major street. The last time I was there, the gas prices were above average at well over $5.00/ gal. Features:- small snack shop- multiple service/repair bays- right next to freewayI'm leaving a positive review because they took the time to fix my flat tire. Nowadays, alot of places don't fix flats. Other places you have to make an appt or leave the tire overnight. No, this place fixed my tire and I was on my way. Negs: high gas prices, and snack shop with limited items.Good news, you're next to a shopping center with lots of food choices.

Sunny took great care of our 2008 hatchback after we blew out the clutch in the hills nearby. It was a busy holiday time but Sunny was able to do the repairs - and a bunch of other minor stuff we had been putting off - quickly and for a reasonable price. He stayed in communication and was helpful and considerate from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend this shop!

The owner is so incredibly nice. He has worked on our cars multiple times and done a great job at an extremely reasonable price. I own a Tesla and he checked my tires thoroughly because they were making a weird noise....all at no charge. I'm so grateful to have this business in our neighborhood!!

We were on our way up to the mountains the evening before Thanksgiving when we realized our tire was falling apart -- we called College Plaza Shell Auto Care in a panic -- he got us back on the road in a few hours and Thanksgiving was saved. I was really impressed with the care and the immediacy -- we could have had a terrible Thanksgiving (our cat and a brined turkey were in our backseat. Instead we were able to celebrate the with new tires and successfully getting back onto the road. Thank you so very much!!!

Mom brought in her European car for an oil change. All done at a reasonable price; the alternative was the expensive dealer. Next day, noted a few drops of oil on the driveway and so the car was returned just to be sure. All was okay but the mechanics here noticed that one of the CV joint boots was cracked and had been exposed for some time. Somehow, this red flag was not identified by the mechanics at the dealer the last time the car was there. So, the Shell mechanics replaced the boot at a reasonable price. Mom was so glad since the problem would only have gotten worse over time til the drive shaft would have needed to be replaced.
