Worth the drive for a trustworthy auto mechanic. My 4runner was overdue for maintenance and had recurring issues... my friend recommended this shop to me and I must say, she didn't steer me wrong! Be is a one-man shop, but he was able to work on my car in a timely manner and was communicative throughout the process. I really appreciate his expertise, honesty, transparency, and workmanship. I highly recommend him! Thank you Be! read more

Be provides honest and trustworthy work at a competitive price. If you own a Honda or Toyota and need work done, look no further.

Very helpful. He was honest and told me the repair was under warranty and the dealer would repair for free. I am gladful and will return to get more work done in the future. read more

While having my windshield replaced with a complimentary oil change, Lexus of Sacramento recommended that I have a 60k mileage service done that included replacing the spark plugs and the brake fluid. Since dealership service departments tend to charge more and recommend unnecessary repair work, I trust Be (Owner) at BG Motors to do the preventative maintenance work on my Lexus (I have also referred my parent's to his shop as well). Since Be is the sole employee at BG Motors, I reached out to him to schedule an appointment (his schedule fills up quickly). Prior to my appointment, Be reached out to confirm that I wanted OEM spark plugs for my vehicle. On the day of the appointment, I dropped my vehicle off at 8am and Be informed me that it would be done by 1pm. A little past noon, Be sent a text informing me that the repairs had been completed. Upon arrival, Be walked me through the completed repairs and was very transparent about the price increase for the OEM spark plugs (which is understandable due to the circumstances that is impacting everyone= inflation). He also informed me that my vehicle's battery needed to be replaced, along with a rear driver's side tire that was beginning to split within the inner portion of the tire. Ironically, two days earlier I had a wheel alignment done at a local tire shop and there was absolutely no mention of my severely damaged tire. If you're looking for an auto repair shop that is honest, does great work, goes above and beyond, and is not on a mission to drain your bank account...I highly recommend doing business with BG Motors! read more

Be did a phenomenal job on my Toyota Tundra. I found him after another shop tried to rip me off. The owner named Be, was very communicative throughout the entire process and gave me so much value for the price I payed. I will be taking my truck to him for years to come. read more

Last Thursday my stopped accelerating while on Highway 50. Towed my car here. After inspecting my car, he told me it could be related to the recall that I recently got done at Acura. Very honest and reliable. I take all of my cars here. Highly recommended!! read more

I brought my Tacoma in to BG motors to have the ac fixed. Initially, Be diagnosed the issue to be the compressor and recommended replacing it with a OEM unit. I gave him the green light to make the repairs and it ended up being the compressor clutch instead of the compressor itself. Be saved me a few hundred bucks, and could have easily had me spend more money replacing more things than needed. I appreciate his honesty and integrity, highly recommend this shop!! read more

BG helped me save a lot of money! I called him about my civic ac and how it was not working and how Elk Grove Honda told me I just needed to buy a new car. I called BG to get a second opinion and he told me about a few service bulletins from Honda stating the ac will be repairs under extended warranty. I printed the bulletins and took my car to capital city Honda where they asked no questions and fixed the ac the day of. I was so grateful BG was honest and helped me out, he could have easily told me the same as Elk Grove Honda but he didn't. When I need vehicle maintenance I will be bringing my car to this shop. read more

These guys work quickly and are honest mechanics that don't charge an arm and a leg. Will definitely be coming here for all my automotive needs. read more

Great shop. honest and good work at a fair price. read more

If you happen to own a Honda, Acura, Toyota, or Lexus, then you're in luck! If not, well you can always keep reading just in case! Anyhow, this hidden gem of an automotive repair shop would have to be one of the most reputable and trustworthy mechanics I've ever met. The only reason I found out about this place is because it was about a block away from the office I worked at from 2009-13. Located on Power Inn Road (roughly one mile south of Highway 50), "BG Motors" can be a little tricky to find. Simply because its tucked deep into the parking lot with other industrial businesses. The easiest advice and recommendation is if you're going south on Power Inn Rd., turn left where you see the "Napa Auto Parts" store. And keep going until you eventually find Suite G. Or you could always call which might simplify everything. Do keep in mind, this place is a one-man show. Independently owned and operated by Be Huynh who pretty much does everything including answering the phones, taking appointments, and repairing your vehicle. Since both my lady and I drive Honda vehicles, he has done many repair jobs to get our automobiles up and running in tip top condition. On our most recent visit (on 10/4/17), my lady noticed that her breaks were squealing on her Honda Accord. She dropped her car off after work. Be called us up less than a half hour later! He told us that her vehicle needed front left and right brake pads as well as left and right brake rotors. After getting quotes from other mechanics as well as the Honda dealer, we were given prices anywhere from $350 up to $470. However, Be was able to get us all the new parts with labor and tax for $250! Best of all, Be called us the very next day (on 10/5/17) and her vehicle was ready by noon! We also asked him if he could check the passenger side wiper blade since it was not moving. He was able to tighten up the bolt at no charge! To me, this level of customer service far exceeded our expectations. Do keep in mind that he has very limited hours (Mon-Fri from 8-5) so make sure you're able to drop your vehicle off around his schedule. So to everyone out there that is looking for an honest, hard-working mechanic that will not charge you an inflated price to have your vehicle repaired, definitely give "BG Motors" a try. I am not quite sure if he works on other Japanese models (such as Nissan, Mazda, or Subaru) but give him a call and see what he says. My rating, a unanimous five stars. read more

The automative business can be a treacherous one. It is hard to find a mechanic that one can trust. Be is that person. Looking at these reviews, there is a consistent theme - honesty, integrity, and treating his car like it is his own. I took my recently purchased 4Runner to get some cosmetic work done, specifically swapping out my upper control arms as well as a small lift. Be came recommended from a dear friend, and he was very prompt with communications, didn't just say "yes" to whatever I wanted, and gave me logical advice from the perspective of a subject matter expert. He had the car completed in a day, and he is in early...as in 7 a.m. He lets you know his timeframes, never overpromises, and always delivers. Be has my lifetime loyalty and I will be taking my family's vehicles to him. His assessment gives you true peace of mind, and that is rare in this industry. read more

Be is a friendly detail oriented guy, and his shop is crowded but extremely well organized. I had a misfire and Be changed my coils and recommended a water pump and coolant service. Be showed me the water pump he took out and it was in fact a little wobbly and showed signs of leakage. I'm so happy to a have found a great mechanic located near my home who takes extreme pride in his work. I would recommend Be at BG motors for whatever your car needs. Car runs great Be, thank you! read more

BG Motors is the most skilled, honest, and dependable mechanic I've found in Sacramento. He's been taking care of my disabled sister's car remotely for many years and as I live on the other side of the country it's important to find a reliable technician. I met him several times and he always tells me what is and isn't crucially needed to be done to keep the car safe. He even calls me and sends me pictures so I can understand the diagnosis. Gives a fair price and stands by his work if something doesn't seem right. Can't say I'll ever need to look for another mechanic, that's a relief. Well Done Sir! Jeff V. read more

Highly recommended. Honest work and is straight forward no bs. I will definitely be coming back.

They say it never hurts to have these trusted people in your arsenal: a doctor, a lawyer, a contractor, and a mechanic. My husband's family has been going to Be for years now. I can confidently say that we trust Be with our vehicles more than any other mechanics. He services mostly Hondas and Toyotas, which works out, since we have both. Whenever either of our cars has any problem at all, he's the first person we call. Recently, my father's 4Runner wasn't starting up and was stuck in the middle of our garage. Be isn't a mobile mechanic, but when I called, he was more than willing to provide advice via text and calling. He told me what he'd charge for the problem that I told him about, so I was able to use that in case the mobile mechanic felt like charging up the butt. Luckily, it became an easier fix (just a matter of me changing out the battery) so we didn't have to have it serviced. But the fact that Be was willing to talk to me about the problem and make some suggestions was infinitely more helpful because I had no clue what I was doing. He even texted me the next day to make sure everyone was going well with the truck. I can't recommend his business enough. He's a standup guy without the frills and without being condescending or rude. read more

Be is the best!! Fast, fair , friendly and honest, what more could you want? If your Toyota, Lexus, Honda or Acura needs help, he is the man for the job! read more

I found this business using Yelp, and had a great experience there. Be (the shop owner) was responsive and communicated with me throughout the process. He's a small independent shop, and does things the right way. Be explained everything that he had planned to do, and why (which I appreciated; others may not), and reviewed the work with me upon completion. His prices were fair and much lower than the dealer (I had work done on a 2011 Acura MDX). read more

Looooove this auto repair shop! Been going here for years & I've slacked on writing a review so forgive me! Back to BG Motors... So I've been taking both of my cars here to get anything and everything done. They are knowledgable, affordable, efficient, informative, & honest. Very hard to find these days, especially because I'm a woman so most places try to take advantage. Never here, they are always thorough and make sure I'm completely satisfied before I leave. I don't think I've ever come to them with an issue they couldn't resolve for me. read more

Looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and trustworthy car repair place? Look no further because BG Motors has it all! I had my car fixed at BG Motors a couple of times and will continue to do so when needed. While hunting for a reliable car repair place, I came across BG Motors. I was looking for someone to replace my starter engine for a good price without ripping me off. I called several places including BG Motors to compare prices, and came to a conclusion that BG Motors was the most reasonable priced and trustworthy. When I came to his shop, he stated he ordered me the best starter engine brand. While repairing my car, he would show me the damaged parts and educated me what was wrong with the parts. This showed me trustworthiness and honesty of his work. After he did his magic in fixing my car, my engine ran like it was brand new again. The second time I came here was for my brake pads and resurfacing of my rotors. When I came, Be looked at my rotors and stated I needed new ones, so he had to ordered me one right away. What was nice about this is that he can order parts and get them right away if ordered before 11am. How convenient! Again, when repairing my brakes and rotors, he showed me the damaged parts and educated me what was wrong with the parts. BG Motors has impressed me so far with his work and I plan on making him my car repair go-to place from now on! read more

Highly recommended. Quick reliable service. Car was back up and running in a timely manner.

Was excited to come here based on the great reviews. Owner decided to pass on the job without even looking at it. I would have paid for a diagnostic, but he didn't even want to try. Disappointing. read more

I've been going to BG Motors since 2009. Be has worked all cars for myself and my family. Always happy with his work. Trustworthy business. No dirty pricing here. read more

Be is the man!! Been taking my lexus is250 to him for years. Always does my brakes. Honest man, with fair prices. Even let me borrow his own personal truck to go get lunch one time lol. Uses quality parts, and even shows you old parts once done. If thinking about taking your vehicle there. Do not hesitate. read more

Great shop, very informative and honest. Thought I needed an entire A/C compressor, but they told me it's just the coil and rebuilt it at a fair price. I'll definitely come back for future services. Thank u read more

Most honest mechanic you'll find. Came there to fix my squeaky brakes . Thought I needed new pads and rotors, He checked them out. Turns out pads just needed some cleaning and rotors were still good. He'll tell you what's wrong with the car. What are your options to fix it. Will not try to oversell you on work you don't need done. Will always try to save you money. Basically, when he fixes your car, it's like he's fixing he own car. So you know it'll be done right and at the right price. read more

BE is a mechanic you can trust! I had been told by the dealership that I needed to change my front brake pads soon and they had only 4mm left, sensor touching rotors, etc...So, I got a feeling something was little fishy. Bought the pads, called BE and got a good quote to do the front brakes. Then, after dropping off my car got a call from BE telling me my brakes were at 50%!!! No need to change. He even waited for me to show me the pads because I could not believe. Wow, thanks to BE - $$$ saved. Will be going to him for all my services since I am a Toyota/Lexus fan and all of my family likewise. He is also ASI certified and specializes in TOYOTA/Lexus/Honda/Acura vehicles! read more

He is absolutely honest, knowledgeable and affordable. Very thorough and efficient with his time. I would recommend him to anyone!! We live out of town and he handled business very professionally all over the phone. My new engine on my Honda Pilot runs better than it did before. I could not be more grateful to hav sour family vehicle back!! Thank you so much!! We really appreciate you. read more

Definitely recommend this auto shop for any repairs. BE is really easy to work with and he is very knowledgeable. Repairs very much under dealer prices and uses Quality parts. Give him a ring and let him work his magic on your vehicle. He will show you what parts were replaced and why they needed to be replaced. read more

Best spot in Sac for Asian cars. The owner is the master mechanic there, his name is Be. It's a one garage shop. They can only hold one car at a time, so it's by appointment, one-in one-out. I took my 2003 Civic there. Clutch shudder, oil leak, and error code. I told him I was trying to sell it, so I didn't want any big part replacements. He offered to buy it if it required big parts instead of me paying for repairs. But he checked it out, and said the clutch and engine were fine, the leak was too small to worry about fixing, and he fiddled with the seat belt buckle to clear the error code. No charge. Full inspection and cleared the error code for $0. I offered to pay him something. He said he only charges if he fixes something. I wouldn't take an Asian built car anywhere else in Sac. read more

Fixed my AC compressor in my Corolla 09 for a lot less then what dealership was asking for. Very knowledgeable, and most important of all trustworthy. Topped off my A/C as it was low for no charge also. I would highly recommend this place for all mechanical works. read more

What a hidden gem this place is! Honest, reliable, affordable - doesn't get better than this. I brought my lexus here for a new timing belt and water pump. He gave me a quote over the phone for hundreds less than Quality or Econolube. And he even met me in the morning before opening since I had to drop my car off early. He kept me updated with the progress throughout the day as well. When we picked up the car, he went over everything he did and found. I don't know of any other place that would take the time to do that. My husband was especially appreciative of this. He only used brand name parts and showed us everything he put in and replaced. And he even steam cleaned my engine, what a nice touch! The place is very clean which shows Be takes great pride in his place of work and his job. He has rave reviews because he deserves it - he's absolutely honest and his prices very reasonable. You can trust this business. read more

Thank you BG Motors for taking care of me! I've already been here twice for maintenance for a great price - better than other shops that I researched in the area. Be is very knowledgeable in his craft and is ASE certified - I always value a trustworthy and reliable mechanic. He's also great with scheduling and always gets the job done on time which is a plus for people on the go. read more

I found out about BG Motors through word of mouth. I'd like to publicly thank that friend right here, right now. The owner's name is Be and he is awesome. He has great customer service, ASE certified, knowledgeable, is very proud in his brand, and will work with the customer. I had my camber kits installed on my Nissan for a reasonable price and there was not one point in time where I thought to myself, "FML...I shouldn't have brought it here..." His shop is clean, organized, and appealing to the eye and his collection of tools and toys are a work of art. I would definitely come back for my future auto needs. Thanks Be!! read more

I own a 2006 Toyota Tacoma. I was referred to BG motors from a friend. I previously went to the toyota dealership and they said I had a starter problem. But I questioned the diagnosis of the car. The car was too new to have a starter problem. So I took my car to BG Motors to have a second a opinion. The mechanic took my starter apart and verified that the starter was not the problem and that the part was still in great condition. It turns out that all I needed was a new battery. He did not charge me for the simple solution. I appreciated the fact that he did not try to sell me on something that was not necessary for my car. A couple months later I returned to BG motors because of the trusting relationship that was established from the prior car troubles. I needed a 90,000 mile tune up. I thought I needed a water pump and timing belt in addition to the general maintenance. But the mechanic only advised the 90,000 tune up and that my car does not have a timing belt, but rather a timing chain. And that I did not need to replace only the timing chain. I highly recommend this mechanic because he only recommended what was needed. I noticed a trend with other mechanic shops; they try to up charge and recommend only new parts. The mechanic took the time to asses my car and gave a true diagnosis of the problems. I feel that it is rare to find such a business where the interest lies within the customer rather than the money. BG motors will now be my primary mechanic for all car troubles. I hope this review will help others in a fashion where they are not ripped and can feel at ease with any car troubles. read more

My 2009 Toyota has hit 200k - Yes, 200k miles! I put on average of 40k miles a year on the car and it needs constant maintenance. I always take it here to "Be" - he's honest, respectful, and very knowledgeable. Not to mention very reasonably priced. I have recommended him to my friends and all have nothing but good things to say about his work. He is ASE certified and another bonus is that he also used to work in the shop at Elk Grove Toyota - so the man knows what he is doing. I'm planning to have my car lasts for another 100K! Hahah AGAIN, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Absolutely love this guy. Went here based off reviews and he specializes in Toyota, that helps since I have a 4Runner. The shop is a bit hard to find, but well worth the hunt. Took my truck here to get the check engine light checked, he said it would be $80, and if any repairs would be serviced, the 80 would go towards that. Since my truck has a cracked head, basically the engine is shit, he only charged me 60 for the diagnostic. He was honest, upfront and called when he said he would. He's really good with updates and being on time. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family! read more

Finding an HONEST mechanic is like finding a gold needle in a haystack. Not only is Be a master at his craft, he's HONEST. I had him change the timing belt on my 2004 Lexus yesterday, and he changed out EVERYTHING that moves in that area for half the price the dealer wanted. The dealer only priced changing the belt, water pump, and gaskets. They'll typically a call you later in the day to notify of "other" discoveries needing replacement, and of course, you're gonna blindly say from your desk at work: "yes, go ahead and change it".... while feeling that stabbing pain in your wallet. The items Be changed are genuine Toyota parts, and he doesn't mark up his discounted prices either. I pre-checked the parts prices with local shops and the dealer, and his prices had to reflect some kind of discount. His prices were lower. Be showed me the old parts and the packing boxes my new parts came in. They were genuine Toyota. I noticed by the door of his shop there was a newly delivered shipment of boxes containing OEM marked parts for other cars lined up to be worked on. Being a weekend shade tree mechanic myself, I know that changing a timing belt is extremely complicated. I think heart bypass surgery might be easier. You want the best surgeon doing this job, not one of the jack-of-all-trades shops, no disrespect to their mechanics. There are so many parts and pieces that need to be removed just to get to that belt. And then when replacing, things have to go back in exactly as they came out, including each nut, bolt, washer, pin, position of the cam, pulleys, seals, cam and crankshaft lined up with timing markers, not to mention the plethora of brackets, mounts, hoses, wires, vacuum lines, alternator, etc., needing removal just to get to that belt. Every piece has a unique way of being removed and repositioned. Some have to be pried out, some pressed out, some require WD-40 and a breaker bar, etc.; all without damaging sensitive adjacent parts. You want someone with stellar organizational skills, an elephant memory, and intimate knowledge of what he's doing. No mistakes can be allowed. This is definitely a specialty trade you don't want "any" mechanic doing. Since I baby my cars, I asked Be a ton of annoying questions just to test his knowledge and legitimacy, being this is my first visit. Be answered everything correctly, with utmost patience, enthusiasm, and even showed me the tools and parts he keeps and uses around his shop. Most shops will kick out Nosey-Bobs like me for "insurance liability" or "safety" reasons. Understandable, but still....how do you know if you can trust the guy without risking mucho denero? Be's shop was also clean and well organized, an indication of good work habits. If he keeps his workplace meticulous like that, you can expect he'll be the same working on your car. Not only is Be honest, he's extremely knowledgeable, has a great attitude, and his prices make you almost feel guilty. He'll have my loyalty and squawk box, long as I own Toyotas and Hondas. Lots of good mechanics out there. Be is in the "elite" class. He looks pretty young, but them Asians are deceptive, they always look younger than they are, haha! But I expect he'll just get better with age. Phil (engineer by day) read more

I was recommend to BG Motors by my son who was recommended by his best friend. Be is an honest person & mechanic who knows what he's doing. He is fair with the pricing & does a job well done! read more

Honest and trustworthy. Being an enthusiast of cars, the hunt was on to find someone that can bear my fixation. I have encountered numerous of auto shops nearby to be treated as a "customer" and lack the human rapport interactions that I highly seek. I treat my cars superbly and wanted to hand it off to a professional with the same infatuation. Regarding the physical shop itself, low student-teacher ratio is the best metaphor to describe it. This adequate size allows Be to provide ample amount of time to promote his attention to detail in every project. I have 4 vehicles that requires timing belt service. He completed the first one (2007 Honda Civic) and it went smoothly. Bringing in my Lexus for round 2. 01/16/15 Picked up my Lexus on Tuesday for my timing belt service, motor mount and power steering pump repair, and I stand behind my statement of what a great person Be is. Truly a wonderful experience and well appreciated mechanic. read more
