Cylinder and block repair service near Houston, TX

Great Repair shop! I brought my car in and the turn around time was fast, price was fair, and car feels great! WIN WIN WIN all around

Had an electrical issue that has been diagnosed by multiple shops previously, including the dealership - they all wanted over a thousand dollars to replace a 'module that went bad' which was causing my windows not to work properly and my doors to not close themselves. The technician here pulled my car in and showed me that the fault with my Mercedes S550 wasn't in fact a bad module, but a module that needed to be reprogrammed/recalibrated. They took care of the problem while I watched, and didn't even charge me anything - they just told me to be sure and leave them a review online! So here I am! I'll definitely be back anytime my car or any of my family's cars need any work done! Thanks IDB!

We love Happy Karz! My family has come here for at least 10 years, and now my husband and I take both of our cars here. Always great service and fair prices. People we can trust!

Went in for a M/T fluid change and they did a great job. My car felt like it was shifting better as soon as a left the parking lot. They have a nice waiting area with free wifi and coffee so hanging out for a little bit was pretty relaxing. I will definitely be a returning customer.

great job. very professional. quick installation

I came in with a slight stumble from the engine. They couldn't find anything wrong with a cylinder cutout test, nor with a power balance test. They wanted to pull the valve cover to inspect the valve train. They didn't find anything there either, but they wanted to pull the injectors and send them out to be checked. This is where it went bad. The cost to do that was $400 MORE than I could get a new set for. So I told them no let's do a compression test and if thats good lets do a set of new injectors instead. their price on the parts was MORE than double what I can get them for, and it tookthem a full day to tell me they don't have the adaptor for a Detroit series 60 for their gauge. then a day later they slipped and told me they don't have the a compression gauge. Now what garage that does engine work doesn't have a compression gauge?! so there's a couple lies right there. after arguing about the prices for injectors and being literally yelled at by some manager guy, I gave the go ahead to do the injectors. that was two days ago. they already had the valve cover off, which they charged $300 to remove. and there it sat, not being touched at all yesterday, even though it was promised to be done between 5pm and 9pm. So here it is noon 5 days later, and they say the injectors are in, but nothing else. no rockers, nothing. they charged $95 just to go get the injectors, and another $300 for some hazardous disposal fee. do yourself large favor and DO NOT go there. you won't save money, you won't save time, and if you're loaded you'll probably forfeit the load.

Run!!!!

My vehicle had misfire code, I took it in they repaired it and it was fine for a while but then I had the same issue just over a week ago I took it back they said it was a faulty coil. They warranted the work but, the check engine light is on again and it’s the same issue!!! This place was recommended to me so that’s why I went but I live about 45 min away and I’m afraid my vehicle will not make it.

11-18 -19 My car over heated. Stan, who is a lair and a cheat, told me it was a thermostat. So I greed to have them fix it. Then Stan called claiming the water pump was bad and it is easier to replace the timing belt at this time so I agreed. While they changed the timing belt they mistimed the engine and destroyed it. They bought a replacement engine a “ salvaged” long block. No telling how many mile is on it! I asked that they put the parts I paid for on the salvaged engine. Almost ONE month later, 12-16-19 after repeated calls made by me I was able to pick up my car. I presented the rental car bill and Stan, who is a lair and a cheat said the owner will send me a check, but my car broke after 10 minutes of driving. They tried to claimed it was the exhaust not the engine but eventually cleared the problem. I asked Stan who is a lair and a cheat, if the new parts are on my car and he said no, but I’m going to warranty it for 3yrs 36k miles prorated. Next morning the engine light came on so I took it to the dealer it was there for 3 days while repairing the wiring and sensors that weren’t wired correctly and install missing bolts on the engine! To date my car has still overheated 2X I have exhaust fumes in the cab and most importantly I have not been reimbursed for the rental car and don’t have the parts I paid for.
