    Volkan is very professional and respectable mechanic with over 20 years of experience in Porsche cars. I brought my Acura NSX here because no one was able to work on this and he took a shot at it. Not only did he do a great job, he kept me updated throughout the whole process. I will recommend anyone with sports or exotic cars to go here for any repair/installation.

    got my Audi A4 convertible fixed and am very happy with the promptness and the pricing. they were upfront with possible issues and estimate and turn around was very quick. From initial contact , everything was professional. Thanks 3A

    Inside the garage

    3A Garage on Randolph Avenue Costa Mesa is outstanding! Their expertise in European cars is top-notch, and they provide excellent customer service. Highly recommend them for anyone needing reliable and skilled mechanics.

    Whenever we have a problem with our cars, Volkan is always there to help with the repairs. He specializes in Porsches, works quickly, and uses only the best parts. I trust his work completely.

    Truly Exceptional Service at A1 Auto Mechanics & Smog!…read more I don't usually leave reviews, but the team at A1 Auto Mechanics & Smog truly went above and beyond, and they absolutely deserve the recognition. From start to finish, I was treated with honesty, respect, and genuine care. Owner Mehdi Akhlaghi personally went out of his way to pick up the parts for my vehicle so I wouldn't have to wait two extra days for shipping. That kind of initiative and customer-first attitude is rare these days. Mehdi also worked with me financially, helping to make the repair affordable and stress-free. It wasn't something he had to do--but he did it anyway, and it meant a lot. Carlos, the mechanic who worked on my car, was equally amazing. He stayed after hours to make sure the job was completed today, and he even offered to come in on Sunday if needed. That kind of dedication and pride in his work is something you don't see often anymore. On top of the incredible service, the shop itself is clean, organized, and welcoming. The waiting area is neat and comfortable, with complimentary coffee and water, and the whole staff is warm and hospitable. You can tell they truly care about their customers from the moment you walk in. If you're looking for honest, skilled, and dependable professionals who treat you like family--A1 Auto Mechanics & Smog is the place to go. Highly, highly recommend!

    I'm not usually the type to leave reviews, but after this service I just felt that I needed to. It…read morewas just that good. I requested a brake inspection to look over another shops 'work'. To give a little insight, I had taken my vehicle (2018 Honda Civic) to an Auto Shop in my area for a MPI to verify a dealership's findings. They told me there that I needed Rear Brake pads. Long Story short, they 'resurfaced' my rotors and replaced the pads. Brought it in many times and they basically ignored the issue. This other shop quoted me $1.3k for a 'needed' Caliper Replacement to resolve the issue. There I was with squeaking brakes, how embarrassing. That was until I came into contact with this Group, The AutoMedic. The two guys who helped me out were very open and communicative. They found that my rotors were not at all resurfaced by the previous shop. I honestly thought it was included to replace the rotors, didn't know anything about this 'resurfacing'. I knew that I would eventually have to change the rotors after researching resurfacing of rotors. Thankfully The AutoMedic had great pricing! Communication with their team was very helpful. They got me same day, they explained everything and helped resolve my issue. That's my headache gone from squeaky brakes for the last 6 months give or take. Did I mention how fast they got it done? I swear to you, not even a half hour!! From this experience, I would highly recommend going with them. I will definitely be booking with them in the future.

The appointment was very quick and convenient. The AutoMedic mechanics dropped by, worked on my car, and was done soon after an hour. Absolutely quick, convenient, and painless- saved me all of the hassle of needing to go to an autoshop. I would not hesitate to give them my business again.

    It's rare to find kind people who truly care about clients in this industry. It's surprising to…read morecome across people like Arnold and Arnaulfo. Their prices are the most fair in the area, but the quality, the skill, the knowledge that were provided was TOP NOTCH. Very honest and knows alot about cars. They deserve your business and referrals. I called them and they were able to squeeze us in after I told him we had an urgent case and needed their help. He found more issues that other shops probably wouldnt have caught. Auto scientists with MAD SKILLS. Arnold educated and guided me and we were able to make the best and right decision on the vehicle. Thanks man!

    TRUSTWORTHY. Highly skilled. Knowledgeable. Kind. That's exactly how I would describe Arnold and…read morehis father. If you need a pre-purchase inspection or any auto repair, whether it be european, american, japanese made, etc, and EVs, take your car here and don't think twice. We reached out to Arnold for a pre-purchase inspection. While six other places quoted us $250-$350 for a "comprehensive" inspection, we paid Arnold $100, which was a STEAL for what he did, even more than what the others promised. He spent at least two hours thoroughly checking the vehicle, test driving it and walking us through every detail so we truly understood its condition. We were looking at buying an Audi Q4 e-tron that had a damage report. A reputable dealership told us it was "minor" and offered to take it to the mechanic for our peace of mind. After browsing Yelp and reading the amazing reviews, we decided to come here instead and I'm so glad we did. I had already done my due diligence and familiarized myself with the vehicle and potential issues. I asked Arnold very specific, technical questions that I already knew the answers to. He answered every single one with clarity and confidence and everything I was expecting to hear. My husband stayed the entire time, and Arnold patiently explained everything while inspecting the car. You can tell he was that kid that made the auto shop his playground growing up. He's passionate, meticulous, and GENUINELY cares. What impressed me most is that Arnold will never pressure you. He won't tell you "don't buy it," but he will clearly explain what could go wrong and what it might cost to fix. When I pressed him for his honest opinion, he said he personally wouldn't buy it at the listed price but if we negotiated it lower, then it might be worth considering. That level of honesty is RARE. They are your small local auto shop but I would choose them over any flashy, grandiose service center any day. Their integrity and transparency make them stand out. Thank you so much, Arnold and your dad, for the amazing service. We ended up just buying a Tesla!
