That said, having just made the first of many credit card payments for work I never would have had done given the full scope of what my vehicle needed, I feel compelled to prevent this from happening to anyone else. While the actual work done here seems fairly competent, the diagnostic process seems about as accurate as playing darts blindfolded. I brought my car in because it was creaking misfiring, and the check engine light was on. I told them that I believed my engine mounts were worn out and that I also needed a diagnoses for the misfiring. They told me that the cause for the misfiring was likely that my spark plugs and ignition coils were worn out, because that usually happens around 100k miles and my vehicle was past that. I agreed to have them replaced along with new engine mounts, to the tune of $2,600. I was told that after this my vehicle would be like a totally different car. The very next day, my car misfired again and the check engine light came back on. When I brought it back, they informed me that they don't have any way of knowing this fo sure, but I probably actually had a blown head gasket. I brought my car to a different mechanic shop who did a full and complete diagnostic from bumper to bumper and took photos of everything wrong with the car- from a blown head gasket to a leaking transmission to almost completely worn wheel bushings and a host of other problems totaling over $8,200 in addition to the $2,600 I had already paid at Red Rock Auto. Had I known this in the first place, I never would have paid $2,600 on a doomed old van that needed almost $11,000 in work done. I had to buy a new van and that $2,600 would have really helped with the down payment. I'm tempted to say that I feel duped, but I don't think there was any malice or fraud going on- just general laziness or incompetence in the diagnostic process that very negatively affected me.

About 50 miles away from salt lake we broke down and had to remove our hub in the middle of nowhere.

As someone who works on their own vehicles and doesn't like trusting mechanics if I was local I would take any of my vehicles to this shop in a heart beat. I cannot Recommend this shop enough.

I'm a mechanic by trade -- not a diesel specialist, but an experienced professional -- and had already replaced several components before bringing the truck in, including multiple sensors and a Cummins remanufactured EGR valve purchased directly from a dealership. Despite these efforts, I was still experiencing a persistent check engine light for high EGR flow and frequent regenerations. When I arrived at Dave's, I was told there would be a diagnostic fee and that they might need to drive the truck a few hundred miles to identify the issue. I agreed to this, understanding the complexity of diesel systems. They determined that a DPF cleaning was necessary, which I approved. That service did successfully resolve the frequent regeneration issue. However, the main problem -- the EGR flow code -- remained unresolved. Over the course of six weeks, they put nearly 1,500 miles on my truck, driving it extensively between Centerville, South Jordan, American Fork, and Willard, Utah. Ultimately, their conclusion was that I needed a new mass airflow sensor (which did fix the issue) and a non-remanufactured EGR valve. They also encouraged me to seek a warranty replacement from the dealership, claiming there was a "bad batch" of EGR valves wanting me to purchase a new one from them. -- something I later learned was inaccurate after further research. The EGR valve's small gap when unpowered is actually normal until the ECU calibrates it under operation. In total, I spent around $5,000, went through two new EGR valves, and received my truck back with the same codes it originally had. I was even charged for multiple tanks of fuel used during their extensive driving done after hours and on weekends. As it seemed using my truck as a personal vehicle. In the end, the true fix turned out to be the new mass airflow sensor -- not the additional parts or labor they insisted upon. While the staff were courteous, my overall experience did not reflect the honesty and transparency I expected. For those considering Dave's Diesel, I recommend reviewing other customer experiences carefully -- especially from mechanics or technically inclined customers -- before making a decision.

At first it was difficult to get on their schedule (which I believe is a good sign for an auto repair specialist). Recently I had been to a local mechanic who did not put the correct oil in my Jeep Grand Cherokee. After driving a couple thousand miles, I decided to get on the schedule at Cole's to have them look things over and change the oil again. Also, I had an annoying check engine light that would come on and then go off right before I was able to get in to have it checked. This time the light was still on at the time of my appointment. I dropped my car off when they first opened at 9:30 am. I heard from them again around lunch time after they were able to run the diagnostics and change the oil. One thing I love about Cole's is they will send you a text with a link to a report. The report includes their necessary and recommended services based on the diagnostics and it includes relevant pictures so you can see for yourself what is being discussed. They found my check engine issue and my car was ready to pick up the same day. A couple months down the road, they sent me a follow up text reminding me of some of the recommendations that I didn't have done before. I had them replace my rear suspension which was noticeably warn while driving. Again, I was in and out the same day. With each visit I have felt their pricing to be more than fair and did not feel pressured to do anything they recommended. On my way out I was explained their warranty which I thought was nice, but hoped I wouldn't need it. The next day I started hearing some noises in the rear suspension that were not there before they worked on it. I called and got back on the schedule. They could not replicate the sound I was hearing at first so I went back in and went on a drive with Brandon. A few yards outside of their parking lot the sound came back and Brandon agreed it was not right. They ordered a new replacement strut for me, got me back in a day or two later and fixed the sound under warranty for me. I don't know of any other auto repair place in town that offers that kind of service and peace of mind. I will be back for sure and I will not hesitate to recommend Cole's to my friends and family.

After giving them the long list of things I wanted done they gave the car a full inspection before starting any service. They emailed me a breakdown of everything that needed to be done with pictures and explanations on why. After the work began they didn't quite have it finished by the end of the day as they had estimated. I wasn't surprised considering they were changing the timing belt, flushing all fluids, doing a tune up, plus some other stuff. It was a ton of work. They ended up staying late and extra hour and a half to finish the car that night. Sadly, I was unable to pick it up that late and had to wait until the next day anyway. The cost is right in line with what I expected. But I don't want cheap, if it's cheap they're taking shortcuts or trying to scam you. I also don't want to pay a premium. I think Cole's has hit the right balance. I'm very impressed with the overall service and will be going back.
