I met with John who spend quality time helping me diagnose the issues with our Ford E450 6.0. They were so helpful it's no wonder they are packed! read more

I personally do not like writing or talking bad about anyone or an individual place of business so I'll just state Facts... My truck would not not start at all so I got it towed to Diesel Tune being a 2500HD 6.6 GMC because they are the few Diesel specialist in the area, check in with Geranamo told him what was wrong, starter would not crank over batteries had low voltage on them. A few days later he calls me back with a list of other issues the truck had and a 1,500$ estimate ! Said "ok" take care of it. Well they Replaced throttle body Hose clamps Duct seal wtf is a duct seal!? Replaced alternator Ended up with a 1500$ bill whatever not a big deal BUT! 3 weeks later the same thing happens Im STRANDED! The starter would not crank over! I work all over the wester states and when I need my truck I am willing to pay big $$$ for it to be in good working order. Needless to say I was not happy at all! Like I said I don't like writing bad reviews but when I pay a lot of $$& and don't get a good job that really makes me mad! I will say they are great a changing oil and basic servicing, but when you are in a bind and need it fixed well they are not the place to take your diesel to. Sorry. read more

Diesel Tune - Payed Big $$$ not happy - Auto Repair Near Me - Downey, California

Brought in my dad's truck after he was experiencing some issues. I don't know much about diesels or cars in general but these guys helped thoroughly explain what was wrong and gave me an estimate that was very fair. The truck was fixed within the time they promised and it's now running great and my dad is absolutely delighted. Highly recommend this shop for their professional service and being safe during these troubling times. We're all in this together, thank you guys. read more

These guys are very committed to their reputation which explains why I always get my trucks serviced here. Always on top of their work and on time. Keep it up guys. read more

Went in asked for R&R on the oil cooler seals... Took it in, had it ready next day. Sal took care of me and my truck was taken care of 100%. Thanks again Sal for the quick turnaround and quality work. read more

My truck ('03 Ram Diesel) would not start on a cold start. Unless I used starter fluid. After a three month stay at the dealership they could not figure it out. Several mechanics and Chrysler technicians looked at the problem for months. They could not get it done. In the end the dealer just about recommended a new engine to fix the problem. Diesel Tune got it figured out in a week. They installed a high pressure fuel pump. I then drove it. It would not start from time to time. I called Sam and he said bring it back: no problem, no BS, no questions asked. Made adjustments. torqued the fuel lines. Fixed, tested for a period of time before turning over to me. Now it starts within seconds like clock work. Very qualified technicians. They honor their work and warranty. Great levels of integrity and principles. A Very classy outfit. Two thumbs up. ill keep Diesel Tech in my contacts. read more

I will never recomend this place they charge me $700 for check the truck and give me a price they give one price of $7,000 and one week later I call for the progress and new price they try to charged was $14,000 I told to not do anything to my truck and i will pickup they removed the engine and take the parts with out approve they what $2000 cash to give the part back DON'T GIVE DOW PAYMENT OR TAKE ANY PRICE WITH O CONTRACT now I will take to a civil court to get may parts back read more

The only place to take your light diesel truck. Truck has never run better! Thank you for the great service.

Very pleased with the customer service and knowledgeable workers! Serviced my lbz duramax cp3 and some other goodies. Will definitely recommend for service of all my diesel needs! Thanks you guys for getting my truck back up and running for work! read more

I have dodge ram 2500 and had some problems with my truck. Found this place from yelp requested to diagnose my truck. George respond really quick. They done really good job. This is the place you go If you have diesel truck!! read more

Sal and his guys are awesome. I got a good deal on a very clean old 92 F250 with the IDI 7.3 diesel. The maintenance had been neglected by the previous owner and I'm new to the diesel culture so I was pretty lost as far as what this old truck needed to get up and running to full potential. Diesel Tune had my truck for two weeks, and the truck I got back was night and day. This thing runs smoother, quieter, shifts ten times better, and starts right up no problem even on a cold morning. These guys did a lot of work at a reasonable price and they know their diesels. They are busy so as long as you're patient and willing to give them the time they need with your truck you won't be disappointed with the end result read more

I've been taking my 2010 BMW 335d to Diesel Tune for a little over a year now and I have nothing but positive things to say about the customer service and quality of service. These guys really know their diesels and offer a level of insight you'd never get at a dealership. Their prices are lower too. For example, when my SES light came on last, I took it to a dealer and was quoted ~$1.6k for a glow plug + module replacement. I went to Diesel Tune and got the work done for ~$1k (37.5% savings!) It's also worth mentioning that they don't service diesel engines exclusively. I serviced my 2015 VW Jetta S here for spark plug replacement, oil change, and air, cabin, and fuel filter replacement. It goes to show that these guys really emphasize customer satisfaction! I highly recommend you check out Diesel Tune if you're fed up with your experience at the dealership! read more

I almost made a 12K mistake with a gorgeous 2008 6.4L. I asked for his team to give me a diagnostic on a purchase I wanted to make. The truck didn't make it out of his compound! His team found an oil leak, exhaust leak, missing bolts, wiring harness was a mess. His diagnoses was that the truck had an engine repair or swap which wasn't reflected on the Carfax. The charge for his diagnostic.....FREE 99! On top of that, he pointed me toward another one of his customers who sold me a sweet 7.3 bullet proofed and all the mods I was looking for. I don't write reviews often, but I had a very good experience and I know that you will too. If you want the job done right, come here and he will take care of you. read more

2011 Dodge Ram 2500! DieselTune is the #1 diesel shop around LA. I took my truck to my regular mechanic and he butchered it. That mechanic had to tow my truck to the Dodge Dealer and they kinda fixed it but that darn check engine light kept coming back on. Several visits and several thousand dollars later with the dealer I had enough. I took it to DieselTune. Sal, John and the rest of the team are awesome. They explained the steps and test they needed to do before preforming miscellaneous work like the dealer. Long story short, they fixed my truck and it runs like NEW! I wish I would have came here in the first place! They even took my vehicle to get smogged. I also needed to get new key phobs programmed and they took care of that at no charge! What shop does that? DieselTune does! Thanks guys! read more

Great disel specialist and VERY fair prices! Took my 2003 Dodge Ram to them for a simple valve adjustment. Tom gave me an accurate quote which was the same price when I picked it up. Tom and Mike are straight shooters. I was leary at leaving my truck outside their shop since they are so close to 2 freeways but everything worked out fine. Truck runs smoother and quiter now. Thanks Guys! read more

I have a 2005 Ford Excursion 4x4 that needed some attention i.e. a few oil leaks and a general looking over, So I went into talk to the guys at Diesel Tune, Sal and George, very nice and respectuful owners. I was talking to Sal about bullet proofing my truck as I've done enough research to know that 6 liter diesels have there problems and Sal went into it a bit more in depth along with George adding his thoughts. So I left the truck with them and they got started we did head studs, injectors, water pump, Oil cooler, EGR kit, Banks inner cooler, belts, complete engine reseal and a Bank six shooter These guys and their techs ( Jaun) are great, they are very thorough and professional and take there work very seriously, my truck runs insanely great and Im very pleased with the work and the cost. If you are looking for a shop that really knows there diesels this is the place to go because they will keep your diesel running perfect. Joe G read more

Been working with Diesel Tunes since entering the diesel truck market in 1998. First a 99 Ford F-250 SD 7.3L and now a 2006 Dodge Ram 5.9L. While not cheap, they are reasonable and very capable in upgrades and solving issues. I haven't had that many but have found them more than trustworthy to identify the issue, recommend a solution and do the work. I drive 30-40 min each way, too. They were recommended by my usual gas car mechanic of 25 years. I recently asked if he had another option (see below) but he still only recommends them. ALERT: They have recently changed ownership. Mike, the previous owner, was amazing and I am hopeful the new owner maintains the same professionalism, expertise and integrity Mike is famous for having. I plan on using them soon and will report back if the work is up to Mike's standards! read more

I was taking my Chevrolet 2500 to buds diesel shop and kept having issues with my truck. By the 4th time I was deciding to sell it and took it to diesel tune in order to make sure nothing was wrong and I wouldn't be selling a lemon. Turns out there were a few things wrong that Sal fixed. The problem was not my truck, It was my mechanic. Sal diagnosed the problem, fixed it and needless to say I decided to keep my truck. He has technicians that each have their own specialty brand which is great. Whether you have a Ford, Chevy or dodge sal will have a tech look at it that just works with those brands. Hopefully I don't have to return but if I do I know my truck will be in good hands read more

Usually the word specialist means that you can evaluate a problem and come up with a quick and efficient solution for a fair price... To diesel $peciali$t mean$$$ something else. Took my 99 dodge cummins there for an injection pump. They wanted to charge me $300 more than a dodge dealership!! Outrageous! I got my truck outta there immediately. When I showed up to get my truck towed elsewhere they had left the key on and killed the battery and acted like it was my fault. Two years time goes by and I got into a pinch again and my regular mechanic did not want to change a failed power steering pump I took it to them again... Fail. Turns out the vacuum pump was bad also and they failed to realize it until they installed the new pump... The managers response to me was "we only charged you once for the install". Well Jesus Christ I hope so! how is it my fault you did not diagnose the problem correctly the first time? I guess the word specialist means something else to these people. Now I drive my truck to Palmdale and have a real specialist look after my diesel truck! read more

Professional,courteous and trustworthy. I wouldn't hesitate going back for whatever is needed.

Way over priced, called and asked for headGasket(s) replaced for a duramax Chevy. I asked how many hours( this is where they get you) GM calls for 32 hours. DieselTune wouldn't give a time , they said it's just a job they do. Well I called DIESEL SPECIALIST ( down the street) he said it's 27 hours ( witch is 2600 laborOnly) and would be around $4k. DieselTune wanted $5200 read more

Thank you Diesel Tune! My heart is no longer aching from being deceived and conned by many "good diesel mechanics" here in Southern California. I pulled away today and couldn't believe how good my 7.3 felt and drove. Thank you Sal for allowing me to be a customer...and thank you Jon (and other mechanics) for your professional knowledge and hard work on my baby. Very humble and experienced group of guys. I also appreciated Sal's ways of explaining what needed to be done and his refusal to compromise on anything, especially on issues of safety. Thank you Diesel Tune for your expertise, professionalism, integrity, and CUSTOMER CARE. You guys are a gift. read more

Looking for a good diesel mechanic I chose Diesel Tune in Downey they had a lot of good reviews so I made an appointment & took my truck to them today..So glad I did! I met the owner Sal and his group of diesel techs he is a really cool ass dude plus very knowledgeable about diesel trucks..a nearby Chevy dealership had diagnosed my truck needing 3 glow plugs & 2 thermotats Sal's tech ran diagnostics on my truck confirmed the glow plugs but nothing about the thermostats so he recommended only doing the glow plugs he replaced all of them for almost the same price the dealership wanted for just the 3 & got my truck back to me the same day!! Long story short Sal & his crew has a new customer so if you are looking for a really good diesel shop with great technicians..quality work at a good price & a quick turnaround go see Sal & his guys at Diesel Tune!! read more

I took my vehicle in to get repaired by Sal and his team. Their honesty, quality of work and professionalism was second to none. Thanks Sal for getting me back up and running. Come see them when you want an honest answer and solution. read more

Great work and quality customer service, fixed up my 535d in a really short amount of time

I have a 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins. My radiator was leaking and my AC didn't work. I brought it in to DieselTune and they took care of both issues. They've also repaired a fuel leak that I had and I couldn't be happier with the service that I got. read more

Had problems with a leak in the hydroboost. They diagnosed it, replaced it and worked on the brakes too. I mentioned that there were electric issues so they were aware but that I didn't need those diagnosed or repaired. When I picked up the truck, the mechanic said he went thru the electronics too and diagnosed the issues. That was awesome. They were very thorough and went well above and beyond what I was expected. Will definitely go back and use them for all my repair needs for my truck. read more

great diesel mechanic. they mostly do powerstrokes (i assume because the 6.0s break down so much), but they had no problem with my cummins 12 valve. bought the truck, and it had some leaks and was pretty beat up. they fixed everything (including chasing down electrical demons and random leaks), fixed the steering , got it running great. then they added pillar gauges (which look flawless), thuren suspension, 35" toyos, a built tranny with billet everything and triple disc torque converter, and ALL the goodies (if you own a 12v, then you know). now the beast is a freight train running on pure America. if you're looking to get your truck fixed at a reasonable price, this is the place to go. if you're looking to get it breathing fire, don't forget the old adage: "speed costs money. how fast do you want to go?" read more

DIESEL TUNE IS MY GO TO PLACE TO REPAIR MY 6 LITER POWERSTROKE! I bought my truck with blown heads, coolant leaks, oil leaks, power steering leaks, a bad master cylinder and the list can only continue. Knowingly I was searching for a diesel shop near my area and was recommended by my father who came here when there was a PREVIOUS OWNER. After I spoke to diesel tune I found out they were under NEW OWNERSHIP. Also after speaking to Sal and Greg who run the shop, they provided more knowledge about what can be wrong with my truck and what would be the best solution to fix my broken truck. Instead of fixing pieces of the truck that will result in more problems we tackled everything as a whole. The professionals at diesel tune turned my broken truck into a all new BULLETPROOFED machine!! With plenty of MANUFACTURED UPGRADES I could not be more GRATEFUL to trust mechanics who deal with these objects as they are their own. If you are in or around the DOWNEY area I would not think twice about trusting DIESEL TUNE If you do not believe me follow my Instagram [@BigJoee_ ] to keep updated on my DIESEL BUILT BY DIESEL TUNE ! Goodluck and dont forget about DIESEL TUNE read more

I've had my truck serviced by Diesel Tune for just check up maintenance all the way to injector and glow plug replacement recently, I couldn't be happier with their services and quality of work for a great price! They have taken great care of me and timelines of completion are always spot on! Their level of knowledge and customer service is remarkable, if you have any concerns or questions they're always happy to help and answer! If you have any issues with your diesel truck do not hesitate to call them for service! read more

I've been here twice, once before Mike sold the business and now once afterwards. Both times I've driven away happy! Now if your looking for dirt cheap service, this isn't your place then. If you are looking for excellent service, then it is! They listen to you and address your concerns! The guys there know their business, they aren't just part hangers and guess at solutions. As I said, they are a little pricy, but they make up for it by being quick to service and repair your vehicle! I won't hesitate in returning here for future service! read more

Brought in my F350 to get my a/c checked. Service was quick, priced right, and fixed with no issues. Appreciate that they only use genuine parts. Had a couple other little issues addressed as well. George and all the guys I interacted with both in person and over the phone were very informative and quick to help with any other questions I had as well. Solid shop & work. read more

These techs are amazing, if you ever need your diesel worked on bring it here. Sal and George are good guys. I'll continue to bring my truck here for all service. Next will be a set of gauges, boost pyro and trans. read more

Total rip off! I had heard this was one of the few diesel specialists in the greater LA area and the owner had posted on an Isuzu Pup forum, so when I bought a 1986 Isuzu Pup in excellent working condition, I figured I'd bring it to them to do some preventative maintenance. I gave them a list of preventative, basic things I wanted done- new hoses, new timing belt, new battery- the estimate was so outrageous that I told them to just forget it. But the car also had a battery problem, as the battery kept charging up and then draining within a day or so. I suspected that it was an aftermarket alarm that was making lights flash and setting off an alarm horn, and I disconnected the alarm horn on my own, but it still kept draining. When I brought it to Diesel Tune, I told them about this and specifically told them that I may not have completely disconnected the alarm, and that it was very possibly the reason the battery was draining. They had my car for 2 weeks (!!!) and never once called me to update me on their progress. I finally called them, and they said they were still troubleshooting the electrical system and couldn't figure out why the battery was draining, although they were sure that the battery itself was bad, and so were going to order a new battery and then troubleshoot again. I called a week later and got the head mechanic- Mike- on the phone, and he was baffled as to what was causing the problem. I told him that when I brought it in, I had told them I suspected that the aftermarket alarm might be the problem, that I had only disconnected the alarm horn, but the alarm itself might be draining the battery. He thanked me for letting him know- THIS WAS SOMETHING I HAD TOLD THEM IN DETAIL WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN!!- and sure enough, that was the problem and they fixed it in LESS THAN A MINUTE!! They told me they literally just unconnected a wire. Of course that didn't stop them from charging me $178.20 in labor!! This is a shop that has no interest in building a long term relationship with its client and charges TWICE THE LABOR as another diesel mechanic that I have since priced, compared to their original estimate for replacing hoses, etc. Simply put: RIPOFF! read more

Took my 05 Dodge Ram Cummins that I just purchased two weeks ago to diesel tune for an oil change Sal and the technician checked everything on the truck to make sure it was in good shape he told me it was a good idea if I changed the fuel filter I agreed he also recommended I replace my front breaks pads they were worn out I wanted to make sure the truck was good you never know when buying a used vehicle I feel confident the truck is in good shape I will be coming back to diesel tune in the future my new spot read more

Can't find a more honest professional diesel mechanic anywhere! These techs know what they're doing and can explain it in easy to understand terms. A friend of mine turned me onto them 10+ yrs ago and although they may be a bit more expensive than the local do all mechanic, they're worth it! That's all they do is diesels! Been caring for my 2001 Ford Excursion 7.3 litre and saving me tons of money in the long run. I cannot recommend them enough! The new owner Sal is friendly and knowledgeable. Great place. read more
