Engine repair service near Ybor City, FL

Every time I go to Paul Mancini for service on my 2001 Cadillac SLS, he is thorough and fair. I have had new tires put on, A/C fixed, Oil Changed. Paul always has helpful advise to save me money and always tells me what I should do next on my 11 year old car and what I can put off a little while longer. I have been going to them since 2009. I absolutely love and trust them and would highly recommend Mancini's on Old 54, in New Port Richey!

1 star only because there is no lower rating. Had screw in my tire which they charged me $20 plus to fix. Had to return about 17 days later for leaking air and they put in 5 pounds and said "you better keep an eye on it." Took to dealership for repair of their repair and told they had ground down the area around the puncture so far that tire could not be repaired. Cost $295 for new tire to replace the 6 month old tire that Tuffy ruined. Only after help from the Corporation headquarters, returned to Tuffy New Port Richey and manager examined tire and confirmed it could not be repaired and offered $200 - which he thought was fair. Will never use Tuffy for anything and STRONGLY caution anyone from ever using this Company. Horrible work, Horrible customer service and obviously use inexperienced, unsupervised and/or untrained 'mechanics'. Only advice is - run.... run far and run fast. You may think this slanderous but it is only slanderous if it is not true. I GUARANTEE, this is true and have their paperwork and dealership paperwork and several witnesses to back up story.

NOT HAPPY! Made an appointment, when I arrived at the shop only requested LOF, it was clearly stated, they went ahead and did the diagnostics. First of all, the shop charged me excessive fees....READ your bill....I was charged for use of a "shop towel" to do a diagnostic, go figure! If I had the work done, I would still have to take my vehicle to a dealership...they can't do the "total job". Why bother!

I took my mother's car to a popular franchise for a oil change,the car did not have any obvious problems, I was told the car needed a new tie rod and a manifold gasket replaced. Told them to do the oil change only. Within a few weeks I started to notice one of the front tires wearing more than the rest. So now I needed to purchase tires for the front, I called several places for price quotes and found Suncoast Automotive to have the best pricing. I asked for tires & a front end alignment. Received fast service and honesty.... the manager told me that a nut was lose on the tie rod. I had them check to see if I did need to have gasket replaced and yes, I guess it's a common problem with this particluar car. I had this work done here a few weeks later. Hate needing to pay for car repairs or maintenance, but love having a auto mechanic shop that you can trust. Would highly recommend to anyone who asks
