I reached out to AKP to have my alternator replaced after having some issues with my Accord. I was met with professionalism and courtesy via our correspondence on Yelp projects. We ended up doing an inspection to get the root of the issue and they came out to where I work to have the repairs done. I loved how convenient it was! They finished the job up in about 2 hours. The quote they provided was very competitive to other places I reached out to. The issue was fixed and car runs perfectly now. They also provided me with a quote of other maintence I've been lagging on. Will definitely reach out again. Nothing but good things to say. Highly recommend! read more

Only mechanic I will use. The best. Used them first after going between a local mechanic shop and the dealership and AKP were the only ones to correctly identify my problem and fix it instead of just putting a bandaid on it. read more

Thiago and Brenno were incredible to work with. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. Thiago took the time to explain what was going on and ensured everything that needed to be fixed was done. What really stood out was his honesty and attention to detail--you can tell he genuinely cares about his customers and takes pride in his work. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending him to friends and family. read more

Spectrum came out to replace my rear struts and drive belt, and the experience was great from start to finish. The convenience of having them come to my home was a huge plus -- no waiting at a shop or figuring out a ride back. Brenno kept me updated with regular texts on their arrival time so I always knew what to expect. Thiago completed the work right on schedule, and what really impressed me was that afterwards he took the time to show me the old parts, explain how they work, and walk me through why they needed to be replaced. That kind of transparency and education is rare and really appreciated. Would definitely use Spectrum again and recommend them to anyone looking for quality mobile auto service. read more

They did good service and was right on time and customer service was good . I would recommend this business for your auto work.

They did an excellent job on my transmission! I would highly recommend. They fixed my transmission in less than 2 hours.

Really grateful to Brenno and Thiago for taking great care of my 2010 Porsche Boxster. Thiago replaced the differential fluid, air oil separator, serpentine belt, spark plugs, transmission service components, and crankcase breather hoses, and everything was handled with great care and attention to detail. Brenno was professional, communicative, and easy to work with throughout the whole process. Their pricing was fair, and I'll definitely be coming back to them for more services soon. read more

I'm so glad I found them because they definitely earned a loyal customer. I'll be recommending them to anyone and everyone who needs a reliable mechanic. Their prices are unbeatable! read more

They were great. Came to my house and got my car back on the road in no time. Also took a quick look around and gave recommendations for other work to get done, but weren't pushy about it at all. Would highly recommend them! read more

Thiago was awesome. His coordinator Brenno was easy to work with and get setup for an appointment. Changed all the brake pads and also did a brake fluid flush. Fair prices. Good work. On time. No issues. Highly recommend. read more

I had this company come to my house to replace a bad alternator on my BMW X5. The service tech's name/owner is Thiago. THIS GUY'S WORK IS INCREDIBLE! The X5 was reporting a bad water pump, but Thiago insisted that the low voltage produced by the bad alternator was causing a false warning regarding the water pump. And he was right. All is working great after the alternator was replaced. Their price for parts and labor was really, really good. Thiago is knowledgeable, friendly, and honest. I would give 6-stars if I could!!! read more

Exceptional service! I was having a misfire issue that I tried to fix myself, but was unsuccessful, so I called for help. Thiago came to the rescue and was able to identify my van's issue! 100% will use their service in the future! read more

I'm really grateful for AKP Autowerks. They were responsive, honest about pricing, and fixed the issue quickly without any pressure or upselling. The technician was professional and kind, which I truly appreciated. It's not always easy to find a mechanic you can trust, but this felt straightforward and reliable. I would absolutely use them again. read more

Highly recommended Breno and his team. Very kind and communicative. Focus on the customer and wanted to make things right. Fair pricing.

Brake pads and rotors installed on our Honda Pilot. They are amazing now. Night and day improvement. A+++. Will definitely use AKP again. Mechanic found we had a damaged bushing too. So we are scheduling that to get done. read more

Thiago came out as a mobile mechanic to work on my Mercedes C63S and honestly made the whole process way easier than expected. He showed up on time, knew exactly what he was doing, and got straight to work. You can tell he has real experience with performance cars -- he diagnosed the issue quickly and fixed it without any unnecessary upselling. The car feels great now, no more weird noises or handling issues. Super convenient not having to tow the car anywhere. I'd definitely call him again. read more

Thiago and Brenno are genuinely great people and amazing to work with. They hit all the check marks that anyone needs for mechanics. Knowledgeable, trustworthy, honest, and reliable. Thanks guys! If i could give more than 5 stars I would. read more

Akp provided excellent repair service (valve cover gasket replacement) at a fair price. Their communication is excellent and they are very professional. read more

First off, the owner of Spectrum Mobile Mechanic is one of the most ethical and honest mechanics we have ever used. He not only arrived on time, spent his time working, cleaned up afterwords, but also, let us know when something was beyond what he could help us with. His rates are extremely fair (he doesnt have the overhead of a brick and mortar shop), he is personable and explained everything in a respectful way. We would recommend him ESPECIALLY if you have a BMW (his specialty) but even if you don't he will let you know if he can help you when he comes out to diagnose your problem. read more

Call Thiago with spectrum mobile mechanic. Honest , competitive pricing, extremely talented Did I mention honest Not only did he not charge me for a diagnostic, he didn't do the job, he could have wanted to charge me 1500 like the other dishonest guys, but no!! . He is trained BMW mechanic and said, "this is going to be covered under a recall warranty, even though my car has 80k miles on it. Hard to believe, he could have charged me, didn't to save me money? Doesn't make sense right. He wants to build long term clients by doing the right thing, in heard of right? He called a connection at a local dealership, lo and behold my car is being fixed for free, including additional services being done with it at his request. Again even though I did not spend a dime with him, My car is being fixed for free and he still followed up made sure my car is in good hands and getting fixed !! read more

After reading all the great reviews I called to schedule a repair visit the call was answered and an appointment was scheduled for a day and time that worked for me. Had my appointment today with Thiago and I want to give a 5 star ***** review he was very knowledgeable ,friendly and professional It's so convenient to have auto repair service come to you avoiding towing charges or waiting all day for your car repair to be done. I highly recommend this service . Ed Mac read more

I have been contemplating what rating I should give this place, and I have settled on 2/5. I contacted them for a pre purchase inspection on a Toyota Rav 4. About 4 days past, many of which with no contact from the inspector (even after I would message asking for an update) until finally, the car was sold to someone else. The thing about pre purchase inspection is the turn around time should be relatively quick. I have used many (including other competitors in the Irvine area) and ALL have been able to get to the car to check it out within 24 hours. I understand, people can be busy, and I gave him the benefit of the doubt. However, it got to the point that he would just continually say his hands were full 4 days later. It made me not feel appreciated as a customer, like I was being pushed to the side. To give him some credit, he did at one point get to the dealership in the morning, and they didn't have the car ready, so that is unfortunate. Yet, I gave the inspector the number of the salesman I was in contact with at the Toyota dealership so they can figure out a time, and the salesman told me he never once was contacted by the inspector (even after he told me he would). With many days of him telling me he'd get to it the next day, just to not. Or me texting him at 10am just to recieve a text at 9pm with him saying he couldn't see the car that day, with the car being sold to another person, I can say I am really disappointed. This company has good reviews, and the inspector was nice and apologetic, so maybe I got the short end of the stick. I can also give them props and say that the pricing for an inspection is pretty good. However, with little communication, and LONG turnaround time, I struggle to recommend them. If you are not in need of a car inspection asap, or not absolutely in love with a vehicle, maybe go with these guys, but if time is of the essence, consider looking somewhere else. read more

Thiago is a true professional. He's reliable and trustworthy. He showed up on time and I paid what he quoted. Awesome to work with. 10/10 read more

I highly recommend Thiago, who provided exceptional service on my vehicle, valuable guidance, and cost savings, while maintaining open communication via phone, despite my absence from the job site due to work commitments. I 100% recommend AKP Autowerks. read more

Great service! Will definitely use them again. I was quoted 400 bucks, but ended up paying 150 bucks because they realized there was an easier way to fix the problem. read more

I had to take this time to write a great review for this company. I called on a Saturday the day before Easter for a misfire, the tech came out and helped me diagnose the misfire. I had already taken out the ignition coils, he took the time to explain to me what I was doing wrong and how he can help. I loved he walked me through the repair explaining everything he was doing and how the car worked. I would highly recommend this company and it's customer service. It was very fast and professional, great price and we left with our car working to factory specs !!! Thank you spectrum mobile service read more

I needed to repair the bump of my car. Yelp connected me with AKP and it has been a great experience. Brenno kept the communication with me efficient and effective. Thiago was a nice guy who had come to my house and provided quality service. The price is a pleasant surprise and I am happy with having AKP AUTOWEKS for the work done. Strongly recommend AKP to future car owners who need mechanical assistance. read more

I have done my own brakes for over 40 years. I'm older now and have heath issues. I needed someone else to do my brakes before traveling to Reno this weekend. I found AKP on Yelp and chose them over all the others because of their reviews. Thiago scheduled the work for the next day at 8am and showed up on time. He confirmed that the front pads and rotors were too be done and I added a tire rotation too since he was here. His estimate was cheaper than most, and way cheaper than the dealer. About one and a half hours from arrival to departure including all work, clean up, and test drive. Super clean work, and left my driveway spotless after he was done. During tear down, he even said the pads looked good and asked if I noticed any drivability issues. This was him looking out for me so I didn't have to potentially do unnecessary work. I told him I had shaking when decending both sides of the Grapevine on my last trip. Basically he verified that the work was necessary. I now have my new goto brake guy!! I'll also hit him up for any other work since I believe he provides full service mobile mechanic work too. read more

There's a reason why Thiago has such fantastic reviews. I was in a pickle yesterday when my battery had to be replaced. I reached out to Thiago at Spectrum Mobile Mechanic and he showed up to my house, first thing this morning. Thiago went over some details with me about the battery that was being installed. He was completely honest and gave me some options as well as his professional recommendation. Completely trustworthy and very customer-focused. Definitely reach out to Thiago if you have any car issues! read more

This review is long overdue. Thiago is a straight up guy and a master at his craft. I initially reached out to him because of an issue with my suspension. I told him the urgency in needing my car run (it was on a QuickJack because I'm a home DIY mechanic). Thiago was able to come out to me the very next day morning and was very professional. I have his number saved on my phone because he is my go-to mechanic if I ever encounter issues again with my car. His prices are also very fair. It's no surprise Spectrum Mobile Mechanic has such high ratings! read more

Fast, friendly service and great communication. Hassle-free. Best prices in town as well. Will be recommending to friends and family.

I found Thiago via yelp after yelp sent my quote request to multiple mechanics. I was looking for someone to convert my 1974 bronco drum brakes to discs. Thiago (AKP) reached out and asked for the opportunity to do the conversion, he normally does not work on classics. I decided to give him a shot, and boy was i glad i did! not only does he come to you, so i didn't have to drive my vehicle with old drum brakes to a shop, but he did an EXCELLENT job. He's polite, communicative, takes pride in his work, and does quality work. i would refer him to anyone who needs quality mobile service. Thanks to Thiago my wife can finally drive her bronco without feeling like its a leg workout. read more

This review is long overdue. I've had the privilege of working with Thiago and Brenno and few times now, and all times have been amazing. Whether over the phone, by text or in person they are clear with their communication, kind, understanding, reliable and most importantly fair and honest. Nowadays it's hard to find auto repair you can trust. I love that they are mobile which makes it very convenient, as they have come to my job and also my home to repair my car. I still have a couple of repairs that need to be done but my car is running better than ever. I would recommend AKP Autowerks to anyone needed honest, fair and excellent work. Thanks again read more

The whole experience was great! The work was clean and quick. He was honest and fair about the pricing/labor. I will most definitely be using their services again. read more

Great service. Thiago is knowledgeable and thorough with his explanations. Fair prices and good work. Would recommend to others.

Requested a pre-purchase vehicle inspection and Thiago was amazing. Was extremely thorough, knowledgeable and super helpful in his examination of car, would definitely recommend to anyone considering his services. Great prices too! read more

Awesome mobile service! Thiago was very friendly. He was able to explain the whole process to me. I had an oil leak with my BMW oil filter housing gasket and he went above and beyond expectations. Thiago gave very fair prices and even washed the oil from my alternator and undercarriage when other shops would have charged extra for that. I will be using Thiago for any car related issues in the future. Highly recommend! read more
