    Great experience. Detailed report for a simple oil change. Overall I would go back and they were honest about work needing to be done.

    I always get my oil change from them at a decent price. I use Groupon to get the deals and that's how I found them.

    They were also super honest about nothing being wrong with the car except for low tread on the front tires.

    I was passing through the Bay Area when I had my vehicle had a headlight issue. I stopped at a…read morelocal gas station and inquired about a reliable mechanic in the area. They recommended Lou's Auto Repair. Let me tell you I'm beyond grateful for their recommendation. I found Lou to be every bit the man they described him to be. Honesty, reliable & trustworthy!! Lou took a look at the headlight issue, quoted me a price, and went to work. I found his work to be above and beyond what was expected. He even took care of a little loose fender issue for me without even being asked to do so. It's the little attention to details sometimes that tips the scale from an average experience turn into a fantastic one!! I too now will always recommend Lou's in Burlingame for all your automotive needs!! Thanks Lou!!

    Lou is a business I can trust to be honest, affordable, hard working, and reliable!! This guy lets…read morehis reputation do the talking. I previously went to another auto repair who listed several issues (engine oil, brake belt, leaking water coolant, replace filters, tires, etc). I definitely needed serious repairs done. The previous shop quoted me $3k including labor. I asked around and was recommended Lou's. I called 730am and he called me back 15 mins later and welcomed me to bring the car by for a free inspection. He said the previous shop was correct in their assessment. I did need all those repairs but a couple could wait until my next oil change or in 5000 miles. He also said I could go to Costco to get my tires done (a place that referred business elsewhere def means he's looking out for customers!!). He quoted me $1696 including labor!!! I was shocked and grateful for his honest quote. I was able to leave the car and pick it up at the end of the day. They also test drove it on the streets and freeway to make sure everything was solid. I cannot rave enough about Lou's. I trust him and his crew 1000%. He made a life customer.

    Roland The Handyman - 2005 Honda Accord Starter replacement

    My car's transmission died and I put out a request for help/quote on Yelp. Of all the responses I…read moregot, Roland stayed with me the entire time to talk through the issue and also provided a second opinion on everything. Roland referred me to a place to get a full CVT replacement for my 2015 Honda Civic. Price was beyond reasonable. Roland then met up with me to do maintenance for the rest of the car and now it runs like new! What sets Roland apart from everyone else is two things: 1. He's a mobile mechanic; if you got an emergency or need flexibility on location, he's your guy. He comes out to you. 2. He has YOU buy the parts, so money saved not being upcharged by the dealer/shops. You tell him the issue, he tells you what you need to get (including links to Amazon, rockauto, etc), and agree on the labor price I recommend his services to anyone that wants the flexibility and to go with someone knowledgeable/honest. He's also a funny guy

    Sent out a request via Yelp Projects for quotes to get my car's side mirror replaced. Out of 5-10…read morebusinesses, Roland was one of three to respond and was the only one to thoroughly address my issue and provide solutions. Within his first response, he not only quoted me for service but also gave me options for which part to buy, and later added that I could buy the parts myself to save money. He was super accommodating when it came to scheduling and traveling to work on my car while I was at work, and was done well within a couple hours. He was professional, friendly, and efficient. Going to him also saved me well over $1200 compared to going for a repair at the dealership. Would highly recommend and would reach out again if I needed any other repairs, auto, home, or otherwise!

Found a pool of oil in my driveway the very next morning when I had never had one before. Told them the leak was right below the timing belt cover work, but they went and changed the oil filter gasket on the other side of the engine. Then they tried to charge me for the work since to them they fixed something unrelated to the leak. Why the hell are they fixing other things I have no idea. Brought the car back home and it was still leaking oil in the same exact spot. So I brought the car back again and told them it's still leaking. This time they told me I need to change my oil pan gasket. At this point I didn't trust their diagnosis. When I went to pick up the car they told me they put silicone around the oil pan as a temporary fix. I took the car to another shop to get a second opinion. The other shop found the leak was due to improper timing cover replacement. I took the car back to D & J with the diagnosis from the other shop and they refused to acknowledge it. Then they claimed they already changed the oil pan gasket and that I was confused. They never told me or got my approval to do that work. To top it all off they parked my car on the street and it got ticketed. I've been trying to find a decent shop in the area and it looks like I will have to keep searching. This one was horrible.
