I called Angus with a question on possible engine replacement of 01 Camry with a seized engine. I have to say, he spend a good bit of time explaining to me the pros and cons and concluded that it was not just worth the effort! My impression of him is that he is very knowledgeable and possesses excellent judgement!

This is my go to mechanic shop. My car is a 1991 Toyota Celica that was a gift from my grandpa before he passed so with that sentiment I'm trying to restore her to classic glory. This is where Chris and his trusty crew, Izzy and CJ come in. My upper engine and cooling system needed an overhaul this time but now it sounds quiet, smooth, with better acceleration while curing the overheating problem I was having. Thanks guys for the great work! Douglas J. Berkeley, CA Toyota Repair

I’m always happy after getting my car serviced at Precision Motor Werks! The turnaround is quick and prices are fair. I don’t have any complaints, even after 4 years! Brian is an excellent mechanic and I trust him with my Mini.

outstanding job as usual

I came to Extra Care Auto with a used Toyota pick up, for some suspected engine issues. The crew at Extra Care, truly provided extra care. They took the time to find the issue and explain what was needed and why. They showed me the used parts and what to keep an eye on. It is comforting to have complete trust in a mechanic. If you are looking for a auto repair shop you can trust. These are your guys!

I had frank care for my three Toyota's and just got a 2015 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 diesel turbo. He now does all my service unless it's a warranty issue. I told my friends who now use him exclusively. Good person honest mechanic. Philip S. Clayton, CA

Great team and excellent service at R&I. Rey has has been our family's mechanic for years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Gabe Overbay

I saw the rave reviews of Baldwin's and thought I should take my Porsche to them to fix the AC. They were able to accommodate me the next day and asked if I was going to wait for it. I said yes as live a ways away in Ross. Brian was super nice and extremely helpful in finding out what my car needed. He was able to make a few recommendations and showed me a photo of my carbon interior air filter that has never been replaced. It was quite dirty and when I make a follow up appointment, I'll have them do a whole lot more than just evacuate and recharge the AC system. I have been looking for a solid, reliable, and talented independent garage for my car. I have now found it. These folks took care of me and I left with an icy cold AC system and a smile. Definitely will be back for future service work! Thanks guys!

My boss referred me to Ignacio Auto a while back, so I finally went a couple of years ago and really liked them a lot. I always hated having to go to a mechanics to do get anything done with my car. Personally I think Im a bit ignorant when it comes to the workings of a vehicle but I do know when something might be wrong just by the sound and feel of the car Im driving. I've always felt that other mechanics try to get me to approve unnecessary work to be done so they can charge a lot just because Im female. The first time I went to Ron and Marcel, I felt like Ron really listened to what I believed was the issue. He had Marcel take a look and sure enough I was correct. They didnt try to sell me more than what was necessary, which I appreciated. Ive taken my car there a few more times since then and Ron always explains things to me in way that I can understand. I find them to be very fair in price and feel they are an honest business. I had my son go to him for his car needs and recommend him to all my friends and family.

Marty is a really nice guy and seems to really care about bringing quality to his customers. I was very impressed by the follow up call on my car. I really appreciated that. on 1/28/2013 for an auto service

My rear bearing was completely screwed and they fixed it in a short amount of time but what was even better was the price and most importantly the customer service. They were extremely nice and made sure I understood the problem. They fixed my car in no time. I will definitely come back to them! Although hopefully I don't have to!

I’ve been going to El Sobrante Town Garage for many years. They are always friendly, knowledgeable and can usually get me right in. They have taken great care of my two older cars, that I love, and kept them going for years. I trust them and highly recommend them. Lori Elphick

I've been using Yotaluma for YEARS and can't say enough good things about Ryan. We recently moved from the area (a two hour drive) and I STILL bring my Toyota Matrix back to Yotaluma. Honest, fast, responsive. Yes, as good as it gets. Larry F. El Dorado Hills, CA

You took my car to get its smog check after my oil change. And my car was sparkly clean inside & out!
