This was probably my third visit but my biggest maintenance request. The first two visits were basic fluids and adding a bigger aftermarket radiator.

Auto Tuned - Car in the shop! Worked on by Young himself - Auto Customization Near Me - Monrovia, California

The only place and people I let touch my car. Not only is their work impeccable, the people behind the work is what makes this place so special. Highly recommend to all my family and friends. So glad I've found a forever shop in them! read more

They typically work on 86/FRS/BRZs, but with the great reviews I figured I would reach out and see if they can help dial in the suspension on my 350Z. I've done everything on my car myself since I've gotten it, but with work getting so busy, I figured I'd give in and take it to a shop. Called and asked for a quote, agreed with the price and was able to take it in the following day. Got there and met Young, the owner, who was very knowledgable and easy to talk to. Never pushed me to get any additional service that wasn't needed. He told me what he would do if he was the owner of the car and I agreed with what he suggested. Ended up getting my suspension dialed in, fenders trimmed a bit for clearance and an alignment. They finished the car the same day. Overall great customer service and I would for sure take my car back if I had anything else to do. read more

They do general maintenance here as well! Awesome fast service for my Tesla. Instead of going elsewhere and waiting and waiting and waiting. Did quick tire rotations and cabin filter change. Made sure my tires were filled and wheels were aligned. Super friendly service. Highly recommend. read more

Asked a friend for a trustworthy & reasonably priced mechanic, and was sent here. I got EXACTLY that! Young & Jonathan are super knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. They take the time to explain things. Pricing is right. No bs. Best mechanics in the area (Toyota certified 10+ yrs) and they do everything from maintenance to performance. They are meticulous with their work & they know their stuff. Only mechanics allowed to touch my Subaru STI from now on. Highly recommend to anyone read more

From phone call to the end was a present experience! Lowering Spring/Tire pressure issues were my job requests. I can't say enough how happy I was when I left. Prior to picking my Supra I thinking when will I make time for an alignment . I arrived and Mike explained all the details about my issues and I was told alignment was already done. WOW ! Mike is one step ahead ! Thank You Auto Tune! This is my top review! LOL, I wish I was 30 years younger , I'd be there more often!!!! read more

If you have a 86/BRZ platform, this is the place to go. Young and his team is super friendly, informative and professional. The customer service here is exceptional. I got the new oil pan baffle, oil pick up, track spec louvers installed and timing chain cover resealed. Car was at the shop for two days. During the process, Eric is very communicative by sending me pictures, updates and answering my questions. They will not only complete your requested tasks perfectly, but also go beyond by checking other parts of the car to make sure everything works properly. Young and the other two team members are willing to take extra time answering my questions patiently and showing me the components of the car that I need to pay attention for. And if you are concerning about certain things after the tasks have been done, young is also willing to check the car for you again. Five star for Auto Tuned for sure! read more

Auto Tuned - Auto Customization Near Me - Monrovia, California

These guys truly are "your neighborhood car enthusiasts". After a poor exhaust installation from myself and my buds my mid pipe and axle back came undone, no bolts, no gasket to be found. I was on my way to work when this happened so after I tried to find a good shop to go to. Yes I could go anywhere but at the same time I have a car and parts that are not your average. I saw Auto Tuned was nearby, I have heard of them through the grapevine so I thought, "perfect!" I called and Young picked up. He was very friendly and accommodating. Within no time my car was on stands and back off. Young even used his own 3" gasket and parts that were from Greddy (same exhaust as mine) because he was not using it. That is a level of workmanship that you don't get everywhere. It means a lot that on a whim I was able to get my car fixed up in no time in an area I am not familiar with. Happy to know that I have another awesome option not to far away from my job that if I need work done to my car it can happen in a pinch. I will definitely be going back! Thank you to Young and Jonathon! read more

Took my 2005 Dodge Ram Daytona in for a face lift. I removed the original fin and had a Tonneau bed cover installed then let Young do the rest. He pulled the old faded decal off. He showed me how uneven the original decals were put on and it really showed with the new bed cover. We discussed and I went with his suggestion to start the stripe from the fog light and bring it all the way back and up and on to the cover. I love the new look! Dropped it off on a Friday about 1 and was ready the next day at 1. Fair, prompt and great communication everything you want in a business. read more

I happened to come across Autotuned while reading some forums and I'm glad I did. Although I live a bit far out from Monrovia, it was always worth the drive to leave my car in the hands of Young. His knowledge of the 86 platform is unmatched and I learned (and am still learning) so much about this car. I've gotten my suspension issues fixed and gained more power with Young's recommendation for the Jackson Racing supercharger. Not only that, Young, Melody, and Vic have always been helpful and made me feel welcome whenever I arrived at the shop. Will only be coming here for all my future modifications and maintenance. Thank you Autotuned read more

Came in about a month ago to talk to Young about future projects for my car. He offered his opinion and made a few suggestions about how I should approach these projects. What sold me was his honesty and patience. Not once did he pressure me into giving him my business nor did he mislead me with any problems I already had with my car. Young is as straight-forward as he can get and that is why I decided to have him install my big brake kit a few weeks ago. Young suggested the StopTech big brake kit on our 2013 widebody Scion FRS. During the installation process, Young and Robin explained step by step what they were doing and why it was being done. From cutting the brake dust splash shield to pumping the brake lines, I was informed of every step of the process. All in all, they did a very professional and detail-oriented job!! Highly recommend anyone who is looking for just about any type of service that needs to be done. Young and his team are very thorough and informative. read more

I brought my BRZ here after my TOB was making grinding noises and they were able to get me in the same day I called. They installed my Exedy stage two clutch set and Verus clutch fork. Great service and pricing. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I will be more than happy to give them more stuff that an old man like me is too tired to do. read more

Young and Meng Tea first started this shop from humble beginnings, and by humble i mean literally their garage space in their apartment complex. But due to the high quality of work these gentlemen due, as well as provide on site education and guidance, they have built a shop that shows their passion for cars. They can do pretty much anything. The cars that come in are usually Toyota/Scion/Lexus that are looking for enhancements to performance and/or aesthetics. Small maintenance jobs are also performed, but they have been known in the industry for more tuner friendly modifications. They have been published multiple times in Supet Street and have also won the Super Street Tuner Challenge in 2013. I am not only a happy and regular customer, but am proud to say i am friends with them, but all who have come to the shop. Come and hang out whenever you can! read more

Let me tell you something about Young, this man knows his stuff. The amount of knowledge, respect, and passion that goes into his work, is immeasurable. Anything from a simple misplaced wire, to a full O2 Sensor replacement; Young is going to tell you what the problem is, how it happened, and how to fix it. All while sharing past experiences and knowledge of the work he's done within the car industry. Young's knowledge and respect for the FT-86 platform is unmatched. He installed an aftermarket Header manifold along with height and spring adjustments for my Coilovers on my 2017 Toyota 86, and did an awesome job. Not only that, but when I ran into a "Check Engine Light" he asked me to bring the car back and he'll take a look at it. Young solved the issue, got to meet great people like Mike, and have awesome conversations about our cars. Young will break it down for you and keep you updated during an install. He also offers plenty of other services such as wraps , Turbo and Supercharger installs, wheels and tires, exhaust, including standard maintenance. Young will give it to you straight and never beat around the bush, he'll tell you how to take care of your car along with all the do's and dont's. That's all anyone can ask for. I'll be bringing my 86 back soon to dial in my suspension along with a Perrin 2.5 Catback install! I will never take my car back to dealer again. AutoTuned is my 86's new home away from home. read more

Auto Tuned - Un-catted JDL UEL Header w/ heat wrapped Oil Pan - Auto Customization Near Me - Monrovia, California

Super friendly, knowledgeable, and caring. Brought in my 2016 FR-S to get serviced. Spark plugs, diff, and transmission flush. Young is caring, friendly, honest, and hands down one of the most genuine persons I have met. Moment he began to inspect my car and ask me what else he should look at, I knew my FR-S was in great hands. Glad I found Auto Tuned! I can't trust dealerships so glad I found Auto Tuned. Deserves more stars! They took the extra time and effort to take care of little details on my car to make it look, sound, and run like new! The whole team always friendly in person and over the phone. Explained what was done when I picked up my car. Will definitely be back to service my FR-S! read more

Been meaning to write a review for this place for sometime. Short summary: Professional Guy who really cares about cars he works on. Honest and won't try to cut corners. Long summary: Got my Prius Prime last year and wanted to get some work done on it. But it was a new car and not really the type of car that gets aftermarket stuff done to it. So I consulted my friend who worked at Toyota to ask where they got their Prius Prime done. (It was actually one of Toyota's own showcar that inspired me to get my Prius). My friend told me that they sent their show cars to Autotuned and to talk to a guy named Young. I brought in aftermarket springs and wheels from another place so all they were doing was install. Place is a bit hard to find, in an industrial part of town. They have one service bay, can maybe work on two cars at a time, but when they did my car it was just mine there so they were able to focus on just mine. Just the way they handled the springs out of the box and how they handled my stock parts while removing my struts I could tell I choose the right guys. They weren't trying to go as fast as possible but really focusing on the quality of work. They were very careful not to scratch the springs or wheels. Didn't try to unscrew or remove parts by brut force and seemed like they knew what they were doing. One action they did that really impressed me was when they had to remove a plastic liner below my windshield to remove the front struts. As they were removing the part, the plastic ripped. They said that they ripped the part and wanted to call Toyota to make sure it gets replaced. Anyway, the part was $400+ and even after knowing that they said they would get it to replace the part since it was their fault. I told them don't worry about it, they would have lost money on the job just due to the small rip so I asked them to just glue it back and that I'd be fine with it. Anyway, that was one thing they did that impressed me. They'd do the right thing for the customer even if it meant a loss on the job. Because he demonstrated that I went on to get my roof and bonnet wrapped by him. Everything turned out perfect and would recommend this place if you needed to get your suspension done or body wrapped. Fast forward to a year later, everything is still holding good. 5 stars read more

I brought my Toyota 86 to have the Tommy Kaira Wing installed. Young and Vic did a great job. The templates for the holes to be drilled for the wing were inaccurate. Young made his own template and was spot on. I am very pleased with the install. Made it look OEM. Young and Vic were very professional at all times and you could really see their passion for the car industry. They don't settle for anything less than perfection with their work. This will be my go to place from now on. I'll be back here soon! read more

I'd like to thank Eric for booking me up for a clutch job and Young along his team for making this happen on the same day, past their shop hour, even though they had other cars in for work. Young is very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He took the time to show me on how my throw out bearing was making the grinding noise and what would have happened if I kept driving without addressing the issue. Every part that came out the car was presented as he explained the wear and tear level of the parts. Autotuned is very honest about parts that doesn't need to be changed. They will update you with photos and give you advise. Ultimately, they will ask for your call on if you still want it to be changed. Definitely would go back to this shop in the future. Thanks Young for the tips! Car:BRZ Parts: Full Exedy OEM clutch kit + verus fork/pivot release read more

I came here for the first time to install headers/up pipe for my Subaru STI. I heard many good things about this place so why not try it out. I recently purchased a killer b holy headers and wanted someone professional to install them. Young the owner was the perfect choice. Young installs the parts as if it were his own. As he is installing the parts he goes out of his way and notify me about other things happening in my car like what needs to get fixed or if my car is leaking fluids somewhere, many other places would not care that's what makes autotuned very unique from the rest! this place knows what they are doing and have all the equipments to professionally install parts.

Auto Tuned - holy headers being installed on my subaru sti - Auto Customization Near Me - Monrovia, California

If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would do it in a heartbeat. The guy who owns and runs the shop his name is Young. I was recommended by a couple of friends, but mainly from the Reddit ft86 forum. After having the opportunity to get to talk to him and getting to know him, Young is super knowledgeable and gave me the best customer service I have ever received. They are super flexible, due to the circumstances of the pandemic. His price is reasonable and he took great care of my car. This was the first big mod I was doing to my car, even though I only had coil overs and my splitter installed, FOR NOW* after this experience and getting to know him, coming all the way from Moreno Valley, the quality and experience was worth it. I'm going to be coming here for most, if not for ALL my mods. As a way of showing appreciation, his AutoTune sticker deserves to be the first sticker I'll be putting on my car, and also a resemblance to my first big mod. Thank you Young! Looking forward to the next visits and modifications done by Young and his team. read more

Young is a humble, trustworthy, patient, and hardworking. He has a great eye for design and really cares about what he does. I have already brought in a couple of cars and more recently brought in a new car for a clear vinyl wrap.

As expected, I got a top-notch product. Young approaches all of his projects with dedication and an expectation for high-quality. He can make almost any customization dream happen. I will continue to bring my vehicles to Young and highly recommend him! read more
