Highly recommend this place. You can tell Ken cares a lot about his business as whenever I called, he would promptly call back and follow up in a reasonable amount of time. I can't even begin to explain how many times I've called any auto shop and they would either not pick up or callback at all. I brought in my car for an alignment and he got me in and out of there very quickly. Don't hesitate to do business with them! I know I sure will be. read more

Latest Review: It's been a while that I required the services of Auto Logic until this week. They were able to take in my 2012 Honda CRV and conduct a thorough diagnostic on two issues I've been dealing with for quite a while. They made the time to explain all my options on the repairs and parts needed, in a professional and courteous manner. This is why I come back to these guys, they know their stuff, and I have always had a positive experience and outcome. Thanks Joe, Ken & Ryan! Previous Review on 1/9/2012: Ken & Joe rock!! They kvnow their stuff. I have taken in my Caravan twice in the last two years. On both occasions, I was very satisfied with their knowledge of diagnosing the underlying problem(s) with my vehicle. They are courteous, and will take the time to explain, and answer your questions regarding your vehicle, UNLIKE some auto repair places I have been to in the past, were I was treated by some condenscending jerk. Above all, their prices are reasonable and they are honest. Thanks Ken, Joe & Ryan! read more

Wow, this place is amazing. Came here for a diagnosis on a problem that the Mercedes dealership was unable to diagnose. Spent two days at Mercedes without a conclusive diagnosis. Spent twenty minutes with Kenneth and problem was confidently diagnosed. Couple hundred dollars and a few hours later, my car is driving like new! Thanks Kenneth read more

I was referred by my boyfriend to see his mechanic Ken. He swore up and down that he was trust worthy and very helpful and KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING! He was right!! I have been bringing my cars to Auto Logic for about 5-6 years now. Ken AND his staff are amazing people. Polite and also VERY TRUSTWORTHY. He tells you exactly what your car needs but really leaves it up to you as to what you would like to do rather than forcing you to get it done. I guess what I'm trying to say is they don't pressure you. They educate you in the process as well. We have all heard of shops with dishonest people and you will NOT find that here. There were a few things I needed to get done on one of my vehicles and Ken broke it down for me and suggested that we take care of the most important issue first so I could break up the work and make it more affordable. He took care of my brakes as he was concerned for my safety first and foremost. Auto Logic is highly knowledgeable, trustworthy, efficient, and compassionate with whom they serve. You will not be disappointed read more

I have been going to Autologic for over a year, and I highly recommend them. Ken is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He knows my car and the maintenance it needs, and which new parts are recommended. He explains things thoroughly which is very nice. Ryan is really professional and helpful, and Joe and his team work quickly to have my car ready on time. I will definitely continue to come here with my car, which is both a track car and daily driver. read more

Trust worthy service! Recommended by a friend. I take my cars for service. I highly recommend Auto Logic.

This review is LONG over due and I owe it to Ken and the rest of the guys to make sure that people know this place is legit. Here is the straight and forward of it. I've been coming here for years and trust these guys completely. There has been occasions where I've had to have a car towed, sent my then teen son with out my presence and referred family/friends with full confidence things will be handled. No up-selling, no hidden storage fee's while they work on your car and honest. Thanks for always taking care of us ~ Marlene and Jacob read more

I always take my car here for major repairs. They are honest, knowledgeable, and reasonable. They fixed my check engine issue twice over the last 4 years as I do drive an older vehicle(200k miles) read more

Auto Logic is our go to place for maintaining our vehicles. Ken and his team are super professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and patient (especially with people like me that don't know too much about what goes on under a car hood). They provide quality work and provide options without that upselling pressure or feeling of being hoodwinked. Amazing service all around! read more

It's been 3 years since a friend recommended Auto Logic. Anything with my Honda HR-V, i bring it over here. Staff are beyond kind and straight forward. Extremely trustworthy. Will be returning as long as its the same management. Especially if you work at the airport or the maintenance base, its convenient and worth the price. Staff will even call you when theyre in the middle of troubleshooting to verify which option works best for me. Especially if things cost more and whatnot. Slowly im finding out i have coworkers that bring their car here too! read more

Came in for brake/rotor change and wheel alignment. Forgot to get the name but Auto Logic was very helpful in explaining the changes that were done to my car. The brakes work back to brand new and the wheel alignment feels a lot better back to stock specs. Auto Logic even went out of the way to make an adjustment to the price since less work was needed, an honest mechanic. I appreciate the honesty! Thank you, will be back. read more

Ken and his team are the best. Responsible price, clean, always update me when other things need to be done

I stopped here for an oil change, and they noticed my brakes were low and a malfunctioning headlight. While they did the oil change they tried switching the headlight lamp for free. Showed me the part that didn't work. I decided to bring my car in the next morning and do the service, and found the service honest reliable and upfront. They managed to find the broken wire that was causing the headlight issue, where other mechanics didnt even know where to start. At the end of the day they showed me my brake pads. The things were worn down to 10%. Definitely glad these guys took care of my car! Now the ride is smooth like butter! read more

These guys are great. Ken and Ryan are both very friendly and engaging. Ken is very knowledgeable when it comes to cars. They always take time to explain what's going on and they don't try sneaky mechanic stuff. They only replace what's needed and never make you feel like inconveniencing them by asking a question. I always bring my work truck here and will continue to do so. Very fair pricing as well. read more

The staff at Auto Logic were very knowledgeable and helpful. It's hard for me to find shops that I can trust, I usually work on my own cars but I was in a rush so I decided to bring it to a shop instead. Just needed an oil change and they got me in and out within 45 minutes. Appointment was made just the day prior. Prices were fair and although I decided to DIY my spark plugs instead of having Auto Logic perform the task, they still offered to pull one of the easily accessible spark plugs off my Lexus GS to see if the maintenance was even necessary. These guys are honest and up front and will take care of you. read more

My husband and I have been bringing our cars to Ken and his team for 6+ years now. These guys are everything you want in your "car guy." Transparent, friendly, happy to explain issues and options, honest, hardworking. My husband keeps meticulous records of his car maintenance. I do not. And with Ken and team, my husband doesn't ever worry about me being an unprepared consumer because we both know that Auto Logic is going to take care of us. So grateful! read more

Brought these guys a set of tires to put on my car. I actually see these guys daily because I make deliveries to them daily. So I delivered my tires and dropped off my car and the were pretty quick, but no better or cheaper than most shops. But here is where it got weird. Several months later I got a flat and did an inspection on the rest of my tires. I noticed that the rear tires on my car were not the tires I purchased. Not only that, they were directional tires that were put on backwards! This caused uneven wear that was only noticeable on the inside edge of the tire, meaning you have to get under the car to see it. Since it was close to a year that I had the work done l, I did not bother getting into a debate with these clowns. The smog guy there is legit but keep your car out of this shop. I took my car 2 blocks down to Hanlon's Tires and they did the job right and for less money. Shop around folks, these guys are in business to create future work for themselves at your expense. Maybe someday they will read this, figure out who I am and offer me my money back. Until then, I tell all the locals I deliver to, to STAY AWAY from this place! read more

Good people. Helped me diagnose problems I had with my car and gave reasonable estimates for everything. Also diagnosed some annoyances I had that would actually cost a lot due to how much labor's involved, but advised against it since it's not worth it. Overall, would go again. read more

Ken, Ryan, and the entire crew at Auto Logic is friendly, well versed, and honest. I've brought my Audi in for oil changes to mods and have always left feeling confident in their work. These guys build trust by recommending what's in your best interest, not theirs. Keep up the great work! read more

These guys are straightforward, helpful, and very knowledgeable. The service is fantastic and the prices are reasonable. They run an honest business, and you can trust these guys with your car - that's a lot more than I can say about any other auto shop! read more

I've been a loyal customer for over a decade now. Sorry it took me so long to write a review. I rarely do. Had to give these guys a shout out though! Honest, professional, friendly and excellent customer service! Can't say a bad thing about them. I always refer them to anyone that asks for a good auto shop! read more

I have to say, this shop is one of the most honest and straightforward shops I've dealt with. I was interested in purchasing a used car in the San Bruno area (I'm out of state), and called around to more than 10 shops in the SF peninsula that deal with Subarus and do prepurchase inspections. I ended up going with Auto Logic after talking to Ryan on the phone, he seemed knowledgeable about the specific issues that affect the car I was interested in, and gave me a thorough breakdown of everything they would do during the inspection. Making an appointment and paying over the phone was easy, and they did a very thorough inspection in a little over an hour, for $120 (which is very competitive with all the other shops I called around to). I am SO THANKFUL I had Auto Logic inspect the car for me, they did a better job than I could have and ended up finding that the frame had been rusted out. Even though the car looked like a great deal, I decided not to purchase it after both Ken and Ryan suggested against it. I appreciate their attention to detail and patience in describing the rating system they use for the severity of leaks. I can't stress this enough: have your used car INSPECTED before you buy! For anyone looking for a shop to handle an inspection of a turbocharged Subaru, or any other car for that matter, please go to Auto Logic! Thank you guys! read more

Auto Logic - A very detailed used car inspection report that was emailed to me and then described, explained and detailed over the phone! Thank you! - Auto Repair Near Me - San Bruno, California

Been coming here for a while and always been happy with the service. My 2008 F-150 had a check engine light. Took it to auto logic and Ryan checked the code indicating a fuel emissions leak. Instead of doing the $130 leak test they suggested replacing the fuel cap for $30. That fixed the problem and they saved me a bunch of time and money. Been here for smog checks too and they are super fast. 100% recommend. read more

This shop is 1 out of 2 places I bring my vehicles for service work. It's either here or the dealership. The guys here haven working on my vehicles for over 7 seven years. My work truck, my BMW, and my off road Lexus/ they do it all. Work is always done in a timely manner and communication is always there. read more

The team at Auto Logic is fantastic. All of the technicians are highly experienced and they take great care of all of your car needs. They are trustworthy, which is really hard to come by these days. I go to them for everything related to all of my cars. In fact, I introduced my dad and he brings all of his cars to them now as well. They are highly skilled, trust worthy and have fair prices. I highly recommend Auto Logic! You will not be disappointed. Do yourself a favor and go see them today. read more

Trusted shop for 4 years Auto Logic is my go-to place. Always friendly, prompt service, and always able to make time for my service needs. I'll be a customer for 4 more years. read more

My first impression of Auto Logic was that it was eye-catching. Most shops in San Bruno look like your typical repair shop all gray and grimey. But this shop attracted me because of their fun logo and most of all their color scheme. I was helped by Joe from the shop. The guy was really patient and understood I was in a hurry. After a 30 minute wait, he gave me the car back with a healthy engine.... and most importantly, no added miles nor dents. been back 3 times since. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Very happy I found Auto Logic and they have become my go to place. Friendly staff, quality work and good prices.

Ken and his staff are awesome! Been going here for awhile. I do smogs also here since 2015 i bring all of our 5 cars here. Theyre super friendly , understanding and patient. Very key for good service as people bringing cars to them have questions and dont know much about cars and do theyre own google diagnostics with their own assumptions so patience is very key in this field which you dont find much of now a days! Ken himself is always there and hands on and friendly. A very good sign that the business and your cars are in very hand! read more

New to the neighborhood n in need for smog check.... check failed due to unknown car part damage...techs were very thorough in edxplaining the situation why test failed, what needs to be done, and options. Due to labor day wkend, went back next week to retest, they were very patient with me since my system was rebooted by the dealer n need to recollect data... 3rd time i went there was to replace tires n routine check up. I got friendly calls to keep me updated what were the findings n fair qoutes were provided over the phone. Even got update calls for work status. read more

Do not fear, Ladies! You can walk in this shop all by yourself and get an honest assessment and estimate for the car service you need. They don't add unnecessary work just to try to increase your bill. Ken "dummies down" the explanation of what and why a specific job is needed to ensure maximum performance and longevity of my car. You may not need this, but I sure do! I've taken my cars to dealers before and never will I do this again. These guys run an honest shop and do consistent high quality work. Extremely knowledgeable and professional! read more

My go to mechanic! They are super friendly and up front. They don't try to sell you service you don't need! I've been coming here for a couple of years and will definitely continue! read more

Fast, reliable service! Great customer service. Always a great experience! Great place to stop by for a quick smog check! Thanks

The service is great and they are true professionals on what they do and explains everything that should be done. They not only work on what's needed to be fixed but they also make sure everything else with the vehicle is in good shape read more

I have been going to Auto Logic since I was 18 (31 now). Ken has always taken care of me over the years. From smogging ever car I've owned all the way up to changing a motor. the work here is quality and top notch. thanks for all the work and help you've given me over the years. read more

Excellent and Honest Service! I was looking up their phone number and yelp popped up with my old review which reminded me that I've been coming here for 4 years now. I initially came in for smog check, and now Ken and his team are my go to guys for anything car related. I've had my tires changed, window motor replaced, leaky hose replacement plus my routine services. The service has always been fast with attention to details. Several friends have started coming here from my recommendations too. A friend from LA drove up and the car was running rough so I referred him to Ken. My friend is very particular about his car. He said the service was 1. excellent and 2. much cheaper than his regular LA mechanic! I trust that when he says it needs fixing, it means it really does need it (I had a busted hose and didn't even know it). If there are options, he will also let me know. If parts are involved the prices are always stated first and amazingly that is what is charged on my invoice. If there are cheaper options he will also let me know. I needed a car part which was only available from the dealer and quite expensive. That was the only option Ken had to purchase it. I had the option of buying it myself from a 3rd party. I got my part off Amazon for 1/3 of the dealership price. I have preferred tires for my car. I ordered them and had them sent straight to the shop for installation. Cannot recommend the team at AutoLogic enough! read more

Very seldom which I find the shop I can trusted to diagnostic my Ned for car performance and basic problems we always face and very frustrating if we stuck in situations, Owner Joe will be happily to help ur concern and don't forget the their staffs are so professionally trained answers all ur questions read more

You guys are make this place out to be perfect. Wow he such a nice guy. great price. yah de yah. If your job was less than 100.00 no wonder you fall for his sales nice guy persona. My car needed thermostat and coolant replaced. His quote could be 380 without damaging the hosing or 500usd to put in new hosing. blah blah. I found another place on yelp for half the price. the rule is simple jobs ,of course, he will give you a deal. but some major work he will rip your ass off . Oh i need to do this and this move blah blah.$$$ read more

I've had mixed results here. I brought my Subaru BRZ here for a brake fluid flush, oil change, and brake pad replacement (Hawk HP+ pads) right before a track day and everything came off without a hitch, although it did take a little longer than I expected (~2hrs). The guys were knowledgeable and run lots of track days, so they were friendly and chatty. I came back a few months later for another pad swap (this time to Carbotech XP12s), which required rotor resurfacing, as well as a couple of other things (brake fluid flush + speed bleeder install). It took ~3hrs and everything seemed fine, but a few days later as I was driving down the freeway the car started shuddering. I pulled over and got it towed to a dealership, where they informed me that the parking brake had been overtightened during the pad/rotor service and had to be replaced. (That's what was causing the shuddering--the parking brake, even when released, was never actually "off", and eventually overheated/wore away/started causing problems.) 2 days at the dealer and $600 later the problem was solved. Nice guys, but 50/50 results so far. For something as simple as a pad swap and rotor resurface I was hoping for better. Bleeders seem fine and everything else is a-ok, but the brake issue was an expensive bummer. read more

Hey Yelpers in search of a good auto mechanic. If you're in a crunch and your car needs some serious TLC, I'd take your baby to these guys. Ken and Joe, the owners of the place, were very kind, professional, and honest during the whole process. I found myself on Yelp searching for a mechanic in San Mateo (this place is in San Bruno) because as I was driving to work from San Francisco, the dreaded CHECK ENGINE light appeared. First thought was OH SH*T!!!! And all I could imagine was some sniveling little mechanic rubbing his hands together as dollar signs danced around his head as I pulled my car in, but as it turns out that was not the case. Ken took the time to do a thorough inspection, ran their diagnostic tools and diagnosed my little baby. Thank goodness it was nothing serious, but they did manage to take care of me that day. So with that said here are my ratings: Over all customer service: 5 Stars- They were clear, explained what they would be doing, and open to my many questions. Oh and they drove me back to work and offered to pick me up (that was so kind of them, but I did find a ride back). Work: 5 Starts- The car seems to be running smoothly, no more check engine light. Speediness: 5 Starts- Very efficient. Was able to get the car back within the same day. Cost: 4 Stars- The labor was a lot less then what they charge in SF (by about 20-30 dollars less!!!) I found an error on my bill, but decided not to bring it up (it was a difference of $4.55 then the initial estimate) since they were so cool. YEAH AUTO LOGIC... it was logical to take my car there; you should too. read more
