    The engine they replaced

    I had my engine replaced on my Mercedes' Benz C300. They got it done in a timely manner and it runs great so far. Great customer service and only recommended the things that I actually needed. I definitely recommend them and will have them do any engine service and repairs needed. Thank you to Joe, Steve and the rest of the guys in the shop.

My experience has mostly been with Sabastian, but the entire team is amazing. I've been to several auto shops before finding this place, and I am so glad I did. As someone with little knowledge and experience with cars, Sabastian went above and beyond to help me understand the issues before any repairs began. His quote was fair--I would say below market rate--and reasonable. After the repairs, he showed me exactly what was done under the hood and where the new part was placed. I've never met a more honest, knowledgeable, and trustworthy professional in the industry--I've been to many! This is now my new go-to auto shop. This place is top-tier, and I highly recommend giving them a call if you need auto service. You'll be a repeat customer!

    I literally cannot say enough about Juan and his team. This is an absolutely exceptional business…read moreto work with. And I do not use the word exceptional lightly. First of all, he is a young business owner that goes more above and beyond than any business owner I think I've ever met. He is transparent, honest, has amazing customer service skills , is a wonderful communicator , and incredibly thorough in his explanation of the what, the why, and the how when it comes to repairing your car. I took my 2017 BMW 430i to him for a second opinion so-to-speak after the dealer quoted me over $12,000 for the work. They did a diagnosis on my car and were very real with me with what it actually needed and then gave me a very , very fair estimate. I chose to do business with them for all of the above reasons and was incredibly grateful I did. I went on a business trip and left my car there to have all the work performed while I was out of town. I was shown all of the new parts that were original BMW parts, and he explained why we were going to use original BMW parts. When I picked up the car he showed me all of the old parts they took out, the condition they were in, and explained each piece to me and the why behind needing to replace it. I've never experienced anything like this with any repair shop I've used in the Bay Area or here in Elk Grove. Again, I could not be more impressed with the level of professionalism, communication, and transparency. I was literally blown away. On top of all of this communication, I received photographs before and after the repairs were completed, as well as video - very much like a dealer would give you. Juan took extra time to go on the test drive with me when I felt I was experiencing a little bit of weirdness when I was driving it, and this is standard practice for this shop. Juan and his dad own the shop and clearly take pride in their work and know what they are doing. I would highly recommend anyone in the area or outside of the area take their vehicle to G and J as they are so incredibly knowledgeable and really take the time to make sure you are happy and satisfied with the work before and after it's done.

    I was looking for a decent place to get my front brakes replaced. I called the Toyota dealer and it…read morewas $325 for generic parts while Toyota parts was $420. This was just for the pads no rotors. I got a hold of this place and they gave me a quote of $460 with new rotors installed too. The reviews on this place were really good on Yelp Plus I knew some of the people who reviewed them. So I tried them. I called the next day to see if they could fit me in and they said they could do it in a couple of hours. I was going to wait there since the wife was at work. I brought my car there and they looked over my car and ordered the parts. They would be there in 15 minutes. These guys seemed really knowledgeable and very friendly. He gave me $25 bucks off for paying in cash. Anything off is good. Just a note if you use a credit card the company charges 3% more so cash is much better. Their waiting room has lots of different seats to sit in and there were two really padded chairs so I was really comfortable sitting while they worked on my car. The really nice thing about them is the speed. my car was done in under one hour . that was amazing. They guarantee their work for one year. I love it. I will be coming back for my other cars if I need work done again. Top notch place SO far my brakes are smooth and quiet. I don't think they tested the brakes when they were do because later after driving a while there was smoke coming from the brakes. It happens if the film on the pads are still on there or you leave some grease from you hands heheh. Still working great and I could see that they turned the rotors by looking at them .

I called the previous Friday to make an appointment, and they were quick to get me in at a time that worked for my schedule. I spoke with Joe and Ted, and both were very kind, helpful, and patient. I came in because I had dealt with previous mechanics who didn't do great work, and I really needed an honest assessment of my car. They took the time to explain the condition of my vehicle clearly and honestly. What I appreciated most was how Joe broke things down -- he didn't just tell me what needed to be done, but also what should be a priority versus what could wait. That level of honesty and consideration really stood out to me and made me feel like they genuinely cared about my safety and my finances. Expert Automotive feels very trustworthy, has a solid reputation, and the quality of work is clear. I drive a Honda Civic, and I can confidently say they truly are experts when it comes to Hondas. I'm very grateful a friend recommended them, and I definitely look forward to coming back for future work. Highly recommend!

With my husband commuting to the Bay Area for work, we're in pretty frequently for oil changes and maintenance -- and somehow, our service schedules always end up overlapping. Thankfully, Karl and his team make it such a seamless, stress-free process every time we have to juggle being down to one car. Karl always remembers me when I call to schedule appointments, and he goes above and beyond to make things easy from start to finish. Just today, my son and I arrived bright and early at 7:30am for an appointment. We took a quick breakfast trip to Mel Dog's, and by the time we got back, our car was already 90% done -- no full day without a vehicle, no hassle. We genuinely appreciate the excellent customer service, efficiency, and friendliness from everyone at Elk Grove Transmission. Thank you, Karl & team, for always taking great care of us!
