My brakes went out on my 2015 Prius and I took it to another mechanic after their quote I decided to shop around and thankfully found Car Nerds! Not only was the work exceptional, they were able to do the repair quickly and the price was so reasonable and has a warranty. Super accommodating staff as well. Plus they are located 5 minutes away from my house! I'll definitely be going to them for both of my vehicles from now on. read more

We've all had oil changes or auto repair of some sort. However, Car Nerds is a completely different experience! We've all sat in the oily, dirty side hall of a jiffy Lube, or auto dealer. Well, not here! At Car Nerds, its auto repair/body repair meets 90's arcade. What I like about Car Nerds is, it really is like stepping back into the 90's, being treated like an important customer, given your choice of posh beverage, check out the nostalgic memorabilia, play a game or chat with the staff. Relax in one of the gaming chairs or Jeep couches and enjoy an obscure carbonated beverage, or matcha drink. But best of all... are the PRICES!! Each price is made individually based on each customers needs! Not a cookie cutter price sheet given by a corporation set before you arrive! This is a long review because I've been well cared for there and blown away that the prices beat ALL of the COMPETITORS! Even Jiffy Lube! Not just $10, but a third! My point... I've found my car and motorcycle repair shop HOME! And I'm staying! WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD CAR NERDS read more

My family has been taking our cars to Car Nerds for years, originally at the Santa Monica location, and I'm so happy they've opened a shop nearby now that I've moved to the South Bay. I needed work done on my 2012 Prius. Rony and the entire team are everything you want in a mechanic: honest, knowledgeable, hardworking, and genuinely kind. There's zero ego, no BS, and nothing intimidating about the experience. They take the time to explain things clearly, show you the parts and make sure you feel comfortable and informed. Pricing is fair for the quality of work and peace of mind you're getting. Estimates are transparent, invoices are clear, and I never felt like I was being upsold or pressured into something unnecessary. They consistently went above and beyond in small but meaningful ways, which says a lot about how much they care about their work and their customers. It's rare to find a shop that's this transparent and trustworthy, and even rarer to find one that's been dependable for my family over multiple years and locations. If you're considering coming in, come! This is the place. I won't be going anywhere else. read more

I reached out through Yelp to a few auto repair shops in the area and Rony @ Car Nerds responded quickly. I heard back from a few other shops but ultimately chose Car Nerds because of him. I don't know much about cars so having Rony take the time to explain what was needed, recommended & to have it done before the holidays, was so helpful! Their estimate for repairs was comparable to others I had received as well. Ultimately their customer service was the deciding factor for me but the quality & cost of repairs is very important too and it's why I highly recommend them read more

I found Car Nerds via Yelp and its good reviews and decided to take my Subaru there since it's just a few blocks from where I live. Everyone from Liz the office administrator to Rony the owner were super friendly. They quickly identified the problem that was making a strange noise--bad ball bearings in one of the wheel hubs. The price quoted was very reasonable and after a bit of confusion about the replacement part (not the mechanic's fault) everything was fixed very professionally. They also replaced the battery. I will return the next time my car needs work. read more

Ronny,Liz and Luis the mechanic who inspected my car were very professional . Very impressed with the management team. read more

Came to Car Nerds after my cars dealer told me they would take almost a week just to diagnose my "check engine light"! The owner at Car Nerds took my car and told me within a few minutes what would be done to my car. In less than 24 hours I was back to driving my car! I'm glad I came across this shop! Would definitely recommend and would come back if I ever need other repairs. read more

Liz provided good customer service. Car needs checked for other needed services to make sure the car was safe. The cost of the brake and rotators was comparable to most local shops but I decided on Car Nerds due to the convenience of the Redondo Beach location. I believe the mechanics serviced my daughter's 2026 Nissan Rogue well. read more

Ronnie and the entire team were professional. Great service, reliable and honest pricing. I was really lucky to find them when I did they were able to help me right away! Thank you guys once again. read more

I had my 2018 Audi Q3 detailed with Car Nerds. The car was ready sooner than expected & Marvin was good enough to bring it to me when it was completed. The car looks Amazing! It looks like new! The service was excellent & very affordable. I plan on having them detail it on a regular basis. read more

Great service , fast response, and awesome pricing. If you need your car worked on bring it to the nerds!

I would recommend Car Nerds for their honesty, and willingness to answer all my questions. I was able to take my son's car to be inspected without obligation to fix the car there. I previously took my son's car to two different shops and only Car Nerds was able to figure out the problem. They were able to fix the car and the car has been running smoothly since. read more

I had a fender bender earlier this year, and Car Nerds fixed my car in a pinch. Marvin helped me out, super communicative, great work, even washed my car so it came back shining. Great deal, been a car nerds customer for a few year and haven't found anywhere in LA area with as good of value and trusted work! read more

Car Nerds is awesome! Rony and his crew are great, sincere, and transparent with their pricing. I had a concerning noise coming from the engine, and they diagnosed and fixed my car efficiently. I won't take my car anywhere else. read more

Liz and Rony were really great, this is now my go-to hybrid shop. They were very communicative, saved me money by suggested the option of a used part (since the whole car is not new anyway!), and my Prius ABS and TPMS are fixed, no yellow lights on my dash anymore! read more

I brought in my Lexus for the 15k service and was in and out. I loved their cute and entertaining waiting area with refreshments. Took a walk to the pier and my car was ready when I got back. The price was great did not try to up sale me. I would definitely recommend Car Nerds to ALL my friends and family, plus it's a one stop shop repair shop and body shop. read more

My 12 yo Jeep was experiencing some issues. I took it to another auto repair in Redondo Beach which checked it out & gave me an opinion & estimate regarding repair which did not make sense to me. The cost would be $1200. they also charged me upfront $185 just for the estimate. I said I'd think about it. Instead: I went on Yelp & read reviews for auto repair shops in the South Bay and the 5 star reviews for Car Nerds in Redondo Beach stood out. I liked that they don't charge upfront for the evaluation with no obligation. So I went there & was very impressed with the honest opinion, Very Different than the expensive one from the other place. Ronnie discovered my air conditioning had a leak, the coolant totally drained out. The other shop didnt mention that. Now my Jeep is running good. Ronnie told me to bring it back in to follow up and I will understanding that I won't be charged just for the follow up. Great service, fair pricing. I recommend this auto repair service especially for women who are not savvy about car issues. I totally trust Car Nerds. read more

Best place I can recommend to do service. They took care of my Toyota 4Runner. Thanks for the service

I needed a new headlight. I called the place that has done work on my car before and was told the lights would be $200 and $175 to install them. I said I looked the lights up on line and they are around $50!!! I was told I had to use their parts. I said obviously you now longer want my business. I looked on Yelp and found Car Nerds. I talked to Liz and got a quote for $100 and they could do it the next day. I love the design of their lobby and really enjoyed talking with the owners Ronnie and his brother. Great guys! I have told several friends and family about how well they treated me. Car Nerds is now my go to for my car needs. Thanks guys! read more

Great customer service, extremely responsive and repaired my car very quickly. The pricing was better than other quotes I received as well

Great customer service. Great service all around. Fast and efficient. They do great work at this shop and very good pricing.

I am a big fan of the car nerds for car maintenance in and so when I found out, they opened an shop. I not hesitate to use them to fix my car. They not only came to my home to pick up my but also delivered it back with the job fixed and did extra work to pop out my bumper at no cost this type of service on top of excellent work is hard to find in Los Angeles. I would recommend them to anybody. read more
