I have been bringing my foreign and domestic cars to Joe and Mario D'Agostino's place for 30+ years…read moreand only have great things to say about them. As stated in another review Joe is extremely well-trained and skilled at diagnostics and auto repair. Although they are foremost BMW and Audi experts, they can easily handle any make/model. They love working on Italian cars, btw. Agree that they are a hidden gem for auto repair! They are very, very trustworthy; repair estimates and costs are always very fair, if not under the market. I love these guys and recommend them highly. We own 5 cars and they service all of them (Toyota, Honda (2), Fiat, Subaru...Volvo and Ford in the past). You will not be disappointed. I would give them 6 stars if it were possible!

Joe was arrogant, rude, and unreliable. I took my car and he refused to service me when I told him…read moreI was looking around for great value. He quoted me without looking at the car and then he got upset when I told him I would think about it. I would never recommend him. He is not the only BMW auto repairer.

I've never had to get my own car serviced and repaired before so I wanted to know that I was in good hands. I went on facebook and asked the harbor point group what people recommended for auto repair and the great reviews of scottys caught my eye. I called up scottys and they let me know they were booked for the next 2 days (it was the first) but they said to drop it off and that they would do their best to look at it beforehand. sure enough I got a call the next day with a breakdown of what needed to be done. They gave me an estimate which was HALF WHAT THE JEEP DEALER QUOTED US, plus it didnt include some of the nonsensical stuff they suggested to fix that scottys said did not need to be done. ultimately they were able to get everything done before we headed out for vacation. when I went to go pick it up, they had admitted there was a communication error and that it wasnt ready just yet and that it would be another hour or so. I mentioned that I had just took an uber and had a lot of other things to try to work on and to see if they could try to give me an accurate time estimate. the guy there (isaac i think) just handed me a set of keys and said heres a loaner ill call you! that alone made this a 6 star experience! talk about admitting to a mistake and making up for it with phenomenal service. anywho, i know where ill be getting my oil changed moving forward! thank you guys!

He charged us a ridiculous price for a tire too. When I mentioned another local tire vendor offered much better prices, he said they get cheap, low quality tires from China.

A big ripoff. When I got the car back, I brought it down to my mechanic Chris to have a new radiator installed. He checked the repair work that was done by Shell gas station and he told me that the mechanic didn't install a new gasket with the thermostat. This is really basic stuff. My mechanic charges $50.00 dollars for the same repair. I was in a hurry and never should have come here. I read some of the other reviews and they seem to have no credibility. I personally would never recommend them to anyone. STAY AWAY!

So when I went to go get the second oil change, they were unable to take the screw and shield off. I brought it back to the mechanic to get them to take the plate off and they told me they didn't have time to do my oil change that I can come back at a later day. I went to get my oil changed at Valvoline and they wouldn't put my shield back on. So I went to the mechanic on Long Ridge Road and inform them that I needed my shield put back on and they refused to help me because they said this wasn't their problem even though the initial problem started with them. I spoke with the owner/manager personally and he refused to assist. Homie has no compassion or empathy and basically didn't give any fuck about helping anybody but himself.

They did a complete check on the vehicle. They checked spark plugs, compression, fuel injectors and even removed the catalytic converter to check if it was clogged. Finally they checked the timing and found I was misaligned by 3 teeth. Moreover, the belt tensioner was bent to hell. They fixed my car in one day. I'm extremely satisfied with their work. When I pulled up to pick up my car, I found one of the techs shining up the front end of my car which was the extra touch that impressed me. I will return with all my future needs and recommend Diego's Mechanics to everyone who wants quality work at prices that don't break the bank.

At first, I brought my car just for brake replacement, but they did extra inspection and found other issues that were endangering my car. The mechanics, especially Chris are fantastic -- really knowledgeable and dedicated, careful with the car, and paid attention to the details. Not to mention, they work so fast and get the job done within a day or matter of 1-2 days! Also, the front office staff is communicative, and on top of it, getting back right away. After receiving my car back, it now actually runs better than when I first bought it nearly 2 decades ago! It is smoother, lighter, and the worrying sounds are gone. I would trust this precision center with my car and recommend them to any friends, family, or strangers.
