Damir is the only mechanic I trust and honesty above everything else is highly appreciated. I can say that his skills are great, timing is perfect and the price is reasonable- he values his customers and we have to value his labor as well. Overall, trust is what no money can pay, so I would always pay Damir's quality work , professionalism and kindness over any dealership rude and unprofessional workers. read more

I would not recommend going to Damir and letting him work on your car. I wouldn't even let him do an oil change. He did exten work on my car and I have had to pay for a new mechanic to re-do al the work. I'm now going to have to have the timing chain redone. I have oil leak and coolant leaking because of his shabby work. The brakes and rotors were the first thing to be replaced less than a year after he did the work. He cbarged me several thousand dollars for the work. He doesn't know what he's doing and has no ethics. Save your money and get a reputable mechanic. This guy is an absolute joke!! read more

I finally found a mechanic that I can trust that not only knows about a lot about cars but is really willing to find out why my car wasn't running correctly. Damir not only was willing to take whatever time he could to get to the root of my car's problems but also took the time to explain and show me what was going on. In addition to this, he also texted me pictures of the areas of concern that should be repaired. Also, the parts and service are reasonably priced. Thank you again Damir !!! Marge A. read more

This facility is very honest and thorough. Dave will always work with me to explain what is going on with my vehicle and will always work with me to get it fixed in a timely fashion. He and the staff are always courteous and I trust them. I will never take my car anywhere else. read more

I took my vehicle in for an oil leak. Damir accepted my after market part and put it in with precision. He also found a few other problems and fixed them at an affordable price. read more

I got a rapid leak in my tire and I came racing over late Friday night. It was almost 2 hours after close and I was planning on just leaving it there and having them look at it when they were open the next day, but when I called the number Damir was in the back and popped out to look at it quick right then. He found the issue before I even parked the car, and fixed it in less than 5 minutes. Even more incredibly he only charged me $10 and basically said it would be criminal to charge more for such a basic fix. I can't tell you what a hassle it would have been, and how much he saved by bacon. I can't imagine any other shop opening 2 hours after close to fix such a small thing for you. Damir is the best!!! read more

I wish I could rate 10 stars... I am blown away by this mechanic. I needed a place to take my BMW 328i for emergency service, 'Engine Malfunction' error shutting down cylinders, as my previous most beloved German Car Specialist in Sunnyvale (Ralph at European Auto Works) retired. On a lark I tried D&S because I liked the fact that previous reviews spoke about trust and honesty. I live like 6 blocks away so it was convenient for me to try. Initially I was skeptical because I didn't want to go to a gas station, but I was there, so I met with Damir. Immediately I could tell he's a sincere guy. He diagnosed the error codes, and quickly determined that it was the gas pedal sensor causing the malfunction... 4 hours later, and $300 bucks, I had my BMW back driving good as new! I thought it was going to be thousands, and it probably would have.... if. So after this great experience, I decided to trust him with my Honda Pilot 2016. HE did the A1 service, and also worked diligently to replace the cracked windshield wiper. His price was competitive, and he even dropped his price to make sure he was the lowest, but also wanted to make sure that I was getting a quality windshield. I appreciated that, and decided to take his original price, I liked his honesty. Last detail... I had no car, since the wife was picking up the kids and I had an emergency errand to run for my business. I asked him if he had any loaner cars, and he said he did not, but he offered his personal car. I borrowed his car for about an hour, no questions asked by Damir. This reminds me back when I was young, when I was smashing up my parents cars, when we had a local in town family mechanic servicing all our cars needs. The kind of person who knows you, knows your cars... year after year. This is my shop now, and it has that same down home feeling. Thanks Damir... thanks D&S! Ed read more

Damir was awesome! He gave me a fair price. The other shops I called for a basic tune up we're about $200-$400 more! My car had all of its problems fixed and is running cherry! I highly recommend coming to D & S for any automotive service, you will not be disappointed! I wish I could give 10 star ratings- this is the only shop I will trust with my Mercedes! Thank you so much! read more

100% would recommend! Damir is amazing, honest, and will take care of your car. My BMW started giving me issues back in November when the radiator went out, he diagnosed my vehicle and repaired my car in a timely manner. He never tried to upsell me an gave me a reasonable quote. Fast forward to January, my engine started giving me issues again, I took it back and again he examined and quickly detected the issue. Now my car is running perfectly. I've gotten plenty of services done by Damir & truly best mechanic in the area. If you're looking for an honest mechanic, this is your guy!! read more

Damir is a great mechanic and did an awesome job on my Volkswagen. Fair prices and exceptional service from this shop.

I've taken about 4 different cars to Damir for various reasons over the past 5-6 years. This shop is convenient for me since it's within walking distance, I can drop off the car and then walk home, this is a major win for my particular situation. I consider myself a car guy and capable of doing certain maintenance and repairs on my own, what I lack most of the time is tools and time to do the work myself. I also do a decent job of tracking labor prices and getting adequate estimates from other places. I would say that the work Damir does is about all of the quality you would get from another reputable shop for about 70-80% of the price. It's also not a nice shop where you get free coffee and wifi while you wait as well so take that into account. As an example I had to get my rear wheel bearings on my E46 M3 changed. This is one of those jobs that is very labor intensive and could require lots of effort to put the new bearing back in. Damir scheduled me in, did the work in about 1-2 days and charged a fair price. I would recommend him to anyone and there is a reason why I still go back to him for quality work required over the past few years. read more

Great service. Damir and Robinson are good guys. The work they do is always speedy and competitively priced. I will keep going here for all my future automotive needs. Highly recommend read more

I have been coming to D&S and working with Damir for quite some time now, and it is literally THE ONLY place I will take my car. Not only are the prices very reasonable, but Damir is someone I CAN TRUST with my car and to be honest with me about what I need to do, what can wait, etc. An honest mechanic is hard to come by, so I know that I've found a mechanic ill be coming to for life. I would HIGHLY recommend to ANYONE who needs a reliable, honest, and hardworking mechanic read more

If I could, I would give 10 stars to D&S! Damir and Robert are the best professionals I've known for years, they give you honest opinions and fair prices, job is always done on time and they go extra miles to make you feel welcomed and comfortable at their shop. A few times They even in case of emergency came to my place, saving me money, time and my nerves to use towing service. Thank you guys for such an excellent job! read more

Highly recommend this auto shop. Amir is Best mechanic you'll ever find. Fast but efficient on his work and will tell you directly what's the problem not like other shop that will scam you and will tell you this and that even though that's not the problem. Five stars for this auto shop and to this guy Amir. I probably spending a lot of money right now if I fall for a wrong mechanic. Just thankful that I met this guy read more

See all

Long story on how I ended up here, but short story is that Damir is an old school mechanic. It's a messy, crowded shop, but he did a great job in diagnosing a problem on my wife's BMW X3 and getting it fixed. He checked in a few times during the process to send me videos of the diagnostic and repair process. Pricing is WAY better than the shops further down Winchester. He won me over and will continue to use him from now on. Highly recommend him. read more

I am reviewing this shop based on my one experience. Your experience may vary, but for me it was excellent. Had a drive belt break (fray and break completely). Got the car into this shop (they were close and it's VERY hard to drive the car when no power is getting generated to steering, etc) and Rob told me "no problem." He went online, got the quote for the belt, told me he'd get it within an hour and it would probably take 3 hours to complete since he had to get the old frayed belt out (which was probably a real pain). He called me in a few hours, told me the car was done, and charged me what I considered to be a reasonable price (and I verified the price range online). So, all in all, he did a great job and saved me a tow to the dealer. If it matters, it looks like they rent the garage from the Shell station. The station looks like it rents one of the stalls to a smog check and another one to these guys. Didn't matter to me as long as they got the job done. read more

THESE GUYS ARE CHAMPIONS! We all know how hard it is to find a RELIABLE auto place that doesn't have LAWYER PRICES and I can fully say this is it. I have a 2003 BMW 325ci (We all know BMW'S love to have expensive hiccups) that I always take to them if it has the flu or needs a check up. They always AFFORDABLE...Y and with QUALITY bring it back to life, so I don't have to borrow cars or waste all my money on sketchy Uber drivers that won't stop talking to me. LAST TIME I FIXED MY CAR HERE: My girlfriend accidentally destroyed the front of my car by crashing it into the back of some jerk who suddenly slammed on his breaks in front of her. I did not have liability, so I had to pay out of pocket. They helped me out a lot by finding affordable parts for me and sparing the ones that could be reused. MY BABY IS UP AND RUNNING AGAIN with no problems at all and I still had a couple extra dollars to buy a Big Mac. P.S. They also always wash and leave an awesome air freshener in my car. read more

Amazing job, reasonable prices for the turn around time. Professional. Good place to come if you're in a pinch as Damir works fairly quickly. Will definitely be coming back in the future if need be. read more

Been needing an oil change for some time now and decided to bring my car to this place as its conveniently located near my house and my boyfriend has had work done on his car here before and has always left happy with his services. I came here at 9 am and was told I could get an oil change, but I would need to leave my car here for a few hours. Although this is not a problem for me, it may be for others so I would call to see if you can make an appointment before heading over here unless you will be okay without a car for a few hours. The guys are really nice and are not pushy. They only take cash which I didn't know, but there is an ATM located inside the gas station store. Overall, I will be bringing my car back for future services. read more

BE WARNED! THEY ONLY ACCEPT CASH OR CHECK HERE!! My car broke down suddenly one morning and I was in need of a mechanic ASAP. Although most shops opened at 9am, D&S Auto opened at 8am. I called and was told I could bring my car in. Within 2 hours of drop off, my car was diagnosed and repairs began. He got the necessary part and finished the work by 5pm. I was really impressed until I was told (last minute) that I could only pay by cash or check. The bill was more than $500. I was pretty upset and didn't have that much cash in my bank account at the time. He assured me that we could work something out, and we did. But I find this sentiment irritating. When a transaction is over $100, it seems reasonable to charge it to your credit card. Most people won't have the cash to cover an unexpected car repair. And so I've decided that even though they provide excellent service, I will not be returning to this shop until they allow credit card payments. read more

Damir is a damn good mechanic it shows in his work he loves what he does. Ran a quick diagnostic on my vehicle and worked with me to get all the necessary repairs done. I can't go anywhere other than D & S auto now. Having dealt with some passive mechanics It's good to know we can still rely on others to get a job done. read more

I'd just like to say it was a good first impression coming here, It was even a walk in to simply just get an oil change. Damir took me in right away and got me done! He also had also checked the levels of the other fluids just to see how it was looking! overall good experience! read more

I have a BMW and Ford Expedition and D&S is my go to place for all my auto service needs. Damir is an honest guy who knows his stuff. Gets the job done right and in time, and he takes full responsibility for his work. read more

I would give 10 stars to Damir and Robert, They are the most honest people I have ever had business with, They are very friendly, honest and highly professionals, They worked on my car until late midnight cause I have to work at daytime, at the end when there was time to pay of their hard work, I had no money on my pocket to pay them at that time, they trusted me and let me go with out paying a penny, I went back the next day and pay them off for their great job and honest price and express my appreciation for trusting me. I will be repeated customer and I would recommend everyone, you would not regret, I can promise that. Thank you Damir and Robert read more

I had screw stuck in my tire and Robert told me why it losing air and fixed and inflated all tires really fast! And gave me good price! Yeah! read more

Damir is an excellent mechanic! Always get a fair price and great service! He has worked on my '04 Dodge truck (brakes, engine mounts, fluids, radiator) and my '29 Ford (fuel pump, fluids, brakes) with equal expertise! Damir is a hard working , nice man! I'd highly recommend taking any vehicle here! read more

Amir is the best Benz specialist!! I had purchased a 1997 Mercedes-Benz that had low miles and just needed a repair, problem was even though the car was an automatic the gears from 2nd to 3rd weren't automatically adjusting. And sometimes it would stay in 2nd and rev high. After I bought the car I took it to one other place to look at it and they couldn't detect the problem at all. I then took it here, after it being in the shop for only a couple of days, Amir found out that it was the wiring. The company that installed the Bluetooth radio didn't connect a wire from the truck to the engine, sounds complicated but I can't believe he found the problem! He fixed the wiring and I was on my way. Of course like all the other reviews it was at an insanely affordable price, I truly appreciate the work he put in and the money he saved me from going to any other places. read more

I usually don't write reviews but I had to write this one. I have tried different business throughout the years and have always had issues with either the overbilling or with the service itself, but this time I think I found my new place. They are always helpful and courteous. I have had a number of things done and I am very satisfied. I did not feel like I was being scammed or overpriced. The mechanic, Damir fully explained what needed to be done and did it within the timeframe he promised. The place is right in the middle of everything and I was able to get things done while my car was worked on. read more

I am not a customer. However I would avoid this place completely. My friend just bought her new (used) car, drove it home and left the lights on overnight. They came accross the street and jump-started the car to take it to their garage - they get full marks for that. She called later and they said, "The battery won't accept any charge. You'll need a new one." I told her I'd drive her there, give her a jump if needed, and test the battery myself for free (I have the equipment). When we came unexpectedly, the car had it's lights on, but the engine off (draining the battery). He was surprised to see her (and myself). When he (the mechanic) started the car, it turned right over. The battery has been fine ever since. The cherry on the cake was that he charged her $45 dollars - the only real item on the list was charging the battery (which Autozone will do for free). In my opinion, this place is highly unethical. read more

Absolutely terrible service, these guys have no idea what they're doing. I will make sure I take my vehicles to somewhere else.

I know Damir and Rob for a few years now. Very nice and honest guys, decent prices and know what they are doing. They do all repairs in a timely manner and are hard working. Highly recommend this shop, it is the only shop I take my cars to. read more

Update from early 2016, adding a 4th round of praise for D&S. I'm still driving a 27 year old Toyota pickup, and predictably it needed semi-major work for oil leaks -- many new gaskets. D&S referred me to an engine steam-cleaner down town (great guy also), had me drive a day to let the leaks flow on the clean enginer so they could identify and prioritize. Bought me the set and replaced the ones most urgent. They let me balance need vs. cost. For this, cost was largely labor. But the price is always fair, and I trust their work. My garage floor is grateful and I have the remaining gaskets in the set for future maintenance. My prior review follows. ----- This auto shop has saved my bacon on 3 occasions, and I am long overdue for writing a review. This is what a neighborhood gas station/auto shop should be like. First, I managed to get my car hood stuck - the latch wouldn't operate. It was necessary because I had to drive to a windshield repair shop on a rainy day to get the cracked windshield replaced - but first I had to repair my wipers, which had blown apart on Hwy 101 during a downpour the day before. In the attempt to fix my wipers, I managed to screw up the latch. My other car had problems as well, and I was at the end of my vehicle rope, so to speak. I live near Winchester and Williams and went to the Shell station on a Sunday morning, expecting it to be closed, and the mechanic fixed the latch, got the wipers functional, and lowered my blood pressure for no charge. Perhaps my car distress was plain to see. Eternally grateful. Second, on the day before a month-long work trip, I realized I had 3 days to get my son's car smogged. Again, I run to the closest smog station, Winchester Shell, about 6 pm on a Saturday. Almost closing time. He asked me if I brought a coupon. Ever the bargain hunter, I offered to drive back home and print the on line coupon. No worries, he said, I'll give you the $20 coupon. My 1987 truck passed the smog, no problems, and no late fees. Third, I was almost home in the Winchester exit lane of Hwy 280 and a car in distress, attempting to exit quickly, sideswiped me and slammed me into the wall. I drove away with significant body damage. D&S checked my car mechanically for damage, and gave it the thumbs up. In the aftermath they did my brakes, and installed new shocks and tires - overdue. Total cost about what I would pay elsewhere, but I'm close to home and they give me higher quality parts. The mechanics are trustworthy and the smog shop is dependable and competitive. A one-stop shop. These guys are just nice. Give them your business. You won't regret it. read more

Amir and Rob, definitely know there shit when it comes to cars. I had a clutch and flywheel replacement done on my 1999 Mercury Cougar V6 manual and they nailed the job. It runs great and smooth. It definitely felt like a new car. My only qualm, as with most auto shops, is that their pricing per part is always more expensive than if you bought the part yourself. No stars dinged though, these guys are honest and even document their repair process with photos. Solid work, I will definitely be bringing the car back, should I need a fix. read more

Awesome place. Great and efficient service here. They don't rip you off like some auto places would to females. Straight up and documents work through photos for customer comfort. Honest work with positive results. read more

This is a belated review: my 2012 Prius was making loud, unexplainable noise coming from the front wheels and although skeptical, I took their advice and resurfaced the rotors which fixed the issue. They assured me that they wouldn't charge if resurfacing wouldn't fix the problem. These guys were super honest, friendly, and knew what they were talking about! This is the type of local business we should be supporting. read more

I have dropped by several times over the years to get help ftom Damir and Robert, from tires and ignition swirch to front bumper and power steering check, and I have no complaints with their service. I have never felt over-charged or misled. I have referred friends and family, and they've had the same positive experience. It is tough to find solid auto service, and I'm confident I got lucky with these guys. read more

These guys are the BEST! I just moved to the area and was scared to find a reliable and fairly priced mechanic but D&S will 100% be where I will take my car for the rest of time. My car started to smoke & I came to these guys solely because they were close to me. I definitely got lucky! Damir quickly diagnosed my car and gave me a quote that he stood by even though my car had complications that he could not predict. The price was extremely reasonable (less than my uncle who is a mechanic charges!) and even though there were complications, Damir honored his initial quote even though it would have cost double the amount because he didn't feel right charging more. To top of off, they washed my car for me! read more

I spoke to Robert on the phone a few weeks ago. I didn't get any work done here but after this conversation I am pretty sure all my future auto needs will be done here. I had been calling around to lots of shops to see if they can give me a quote on some work I needed done. I had it diagnosed at Subaru and since my car was dead, not looking to tow it to every shop in town. However, every shop was telling me that they can definitely beat Subaru's price just tow it on over. Knowing that I wont want to tow it everywhere. It's really hard to call shops and get an honest answer when you're a female trying to get some auto work done. However, when I spoke to Robert he was very straight forward and honest with me. He told me the price of the parts of everything I needed and told me I had a fair price and no one could really beat their price by much. Apparently one of the parts I needed was ridiculously priced and only Subaru makes it which is why the work I needed done was so pricey. Just hearing this from him let me know he was sincere and someone I definitely want to do business with in the future. Thanks again! read more

These guys are fantastic. Extremely professional, fast service, and they were willing to find ways to help a broke student save money. My new go to shop read more
