Excellent! Super nice, was on time and took care of what I needed!! Absolutely will call again and recommend!!

Came to my house and jumped my car battery - quick and reasonably priced. It's been a few years and I just called again for the same issue (door was left open and battery died). Fingers crossed everything goes as smoothly as before. read more

Scott was great. I needed new battery and he was at my house in a few hours. Great job and will definitely call Elite next time. Thanks Scott read more

If you have no issue with price gorging, go for it. Otherwise, look elsewhere. I know mobile will be pricier than a shop but damn!

The 12 volt battery on my Prius died and Scott came out and put in a new battery, checked the fluid levels and oil, put in a new lightbulb for a parking light that was out, and cleaned everything under the hood. Very nice and quite fair and reasonable with his prices. Will definitely use him again. read more

Updated: Wow. Has it been this long? I'm STILL using Scot for servicing all of our family's vehicles. He BECAME my regular mechanic because he earned my trust. The repairs were always done in a timely manner, at reasonable cost - many times saving us money, but never cutting corners. In 30-some years of owning cars and needing repairs, I've never LIKED a mechanic, but I LIKE Scot. He does great work and I know I'm in good hands. Original: Have used Scot a few times now and am pleased with the service provided. Work is done well, no extras, timely, reasonable cost. And little things too like keeping things clean - he's working in my driveway, so that matters. He's becoming my regular mechanic. read more

Scott from EMS was able to get to me in 90 minutes, and within 25 he had my truck back up and running with a brand new battery. I really appreciated how knowledgeable and friendly he is; I know a lot more about how to properly care for a car battery and what to expect as far as longevity from a battery subjected to repeated Texas summers. I'll be getting my next battery from EMS. Thanks for putting me back on the road! read more

Elite Mobile Services - Scott came out and had my battery replaced and working in about half an hour! Really saved the day. Thanks, Scott! - Auto Repair Near Me

The best! Very honest, reasonably priced, convenient, and just a really nice guy. I've been using Scott for a few years now, I'm getting ready to schedule a break job for one of our cars, so I thought I would write a review while I'm at it. read more

Scott answered the phone right away and was able to come out the same morning. Problem was simple to fix (car keys fell into an inaccessible area of the wheel well d'oh!) but he got it done quickly with no fuss. read more

Scott was extremely professional and fit us in on a last minute request. He tested the electrical system to make sure everything was working as expected. He uses high quality batteries that include warranty. I would recommend him 100%. He even jumped in and assisted with a plumbing emergency that happened while he was helping with our car. What a guy!!! read more

We had the battery go dead on one of our cars, in the garage. Called Scott at Elite Mobile on Tuesday afternoon, and he was able to make an appointment for Wednesday morning. He arrived promptly and was very courteous and professional. He completed the diagnostic, confirmed that the issue was in fact the battery and not something worse, and then went to purchase the battery. He had the car back up and running by mid-day. His pricing is extremely reasonable, and I have not doubt that we saved a ton of money versus taking the car to the dealership, plus of course we got a house cal. I would highly recommend Scott and Elite Mobile Services! read more

Scot answered his phone and was at my house within 30 minutes. Prompt and professional service. Price was a little high but given the level of service and the OEM component I won't complain. Highly recommend if you get In a pinch call elite mobile services. read more

I had such a great experience with EMS today. We had a truck that wouldn't start in the driveway. The technician was able to come out quickly and diagnose/fix the issue. Very impressed with the level of professionalism and service! read more

I'd totally recommend EMS to anyone for mobile vehicle work. I needed new battery terminal connectors; a simple job that Scot fixed in 5 minutes. He kept good communication with me throughout the day regarding his arrival & he was really friendly & easy to work with. He even gave me a small discount just because! I'll definitely call on him again. read more

I had a truck that wouldn't start in my driveway, with a costly tow costly tow to the dealership. I was able to diagnose the issue, and just needed a fuse replicator kit installed. When I called EMS and asked if they could come to my house for this install, the response was "oh, I assume you're seeing a crank/no-start on hour truck?" He knew the exact issue, and was able to come by the next morning (which is what I requested). He even sourced the OEM part! The cost was almost half what I estimated a tow to a shop would have cost me. Scott was punctual, friendly, and I will certainly not hesitate to call Scott to work on my vehicles in the future. read more

I have been using Elite for 20 years and if that doesn't say enough, well I highly recommend Scot for his honesty, integrity and ability. Not only is he one of the most personable people you will meet, he is totally competent and charges a fair price. When your car is stuck in your driveway, he is the one to call. I have recommended Scot to my friends and I will continue to do so as long as he is in business. He has always diagnosed the problem correctly and if he can't do the work himself, he knows who can. It is a relief to have a competent mechanic in my life! read more

After having had a TERRIBLE experience with another mobile mechanic in town (I won't name names but you can look at my reviews if you'd like to find out!), I was hesitant to hire another one. My brakes were jacked beyond belief and didn't really feel like messing around with waiting several hours at a shop only to check out and find that they doubled my quote with "various" other things that it "needed." It's an awful reality that most mechanics take advantage of women who don't know much about cars, and I've had my fair share of being jostled around. My experience with Scott was nothing short of STELLAR. I spoke with him on the phone for about 20 minutes describing the problem and concerns with my budget being a grad student. He was very friendly, accommodating and made me feel really comfortable. Scott was efficient, timely, considerate and just an all around stand-up guy. He replaced my brake pads and rotors in about 1.25 hours. Best part was, my total was a little less than he initially quoted me! I will definitely be using his service again and recommend him to anyone. WOO-HOO! read more

Scott is the very best mobile mechanic in Austin -- the very best!! He knows his way around an engine and gives your car the care it needs on the spot. www.elitemobileservice.com is his web address. I've used his services a number of times and have always been no less than absolutely satisfied by his excellent work. read more

In a two week span my car (a 2009 Acura MDX) died on me three times. A close friend of mine highly recommended Scott, so I called him up and he came to my apartment that same day to check out my vehicle. Right from the start I could tell he knew what he was doing. He was extremely professional and there was something very empowering about being able to watch as he explained everything he was looking for. After the initial diagnosis, he needed to order some parts, but I was getting ready to go out of town for 10 days. He ended up working on my car while it was parked at the airport! I also asked if he could take a look at my broken A/C (which the Acura dealership said would cost close to $1K to fix). I came back yesterday... my car drove smoother than it has in YEARS. Not only that but I have COLD air conditioning that works! You have no idea how grateful I am for that in this scorching Texas heat. I don't hand out perfect 5 stars on Yelp very often.... but Scott is well deserving of that rating. He charged me a very fair price and he did great work. Yet another reason why I feel so blessed to be living in Austin! read more

Scott was very helpful in my situation. I really needed a simple repair done on my truck and getting it towed to a mechanic's shop would have cost $65 and up but I wouldn't have been any closer to getting my truck fixed. He called me back after I left a message and he met me soon thereafter. He helped out with the repairs and I was on my way for cheaper than the cost of towing plus a mechanic's shop combined. He has a van full of tools and can get you all fixed up. I was also able to get a partial reimbursement from insurance company. If you have a towing benefit on your auto insurance policy I recommend submitting his invoice to your insurer. I was able to get $40 refunded to me by insurer which was a nice bonus. I definitely recommend Scott and I am now a total convert to the mobile mechanic concept! For my next vehicle breakdown (knock on wood) I will be sure to give him a call. read more

WOWWWW!!!! Don't even know where I should start with this review... How about with the facts: Top 5 things you should expect from any Service provider: 1. Creditability 2. Great Customer Service 3. Good work ethic 4. Addorablility 5. Knoweledgable in their field Scott exceeded my expectations in all 5! Made it look easy while being one of the most humble people I've ever met. The first time I called him was a few months ago, straight of yelp after looking for a shop to help fix a problem with my car, which I had no clue what that was. I called Scott based on his reviews and because he was mobile. My car is my company vechile (i'm also a small business owner) and most of my day is spent driving around the city, so it was imapirative that it was fixed ASAP. We chatted on the phone for over 30mins, in that time I described the symtoms and he provided me with knowledge and what I needed to get it fixed. Because of that, I saved his number in my phone, now 3 months later I am finally meeting him and having him work on my car for a different problem. THAT'S THE KIND OF FIRST IMPRESSION HE LEFT. Today he came and fixed what was told to be by 3 other places would be over $400 for a tad over $200, NEXT DAY AND FIXED WITHIN THE HOUR! We chatted after the service for longer than it took him to finish! Got to know him a bit more, and wow is he not only a great service provider, but an even more amazing person! He will be my go to man until the day comes when I know how to fix my own stuff, which will be never so thank God for Scott and his Elite business! He should have the title of Elite '15 of local businesses! I could go on, but you get the point! Stop looking...you found what you were searching for! read more

I was recommended to Elite Mobile Services from a friend (who, as it happens, has known Scot for many years) and I can truthfully say the best mechanic experience I've ever had, hands down. Diagnosed both problems with my car without overcharging me, very transparent about what he was doing, what he needed to do, and was open and honest about the entire process. I was trying to figure out a problem I was having with my 3rd cylinder (engine light came on right as I went to get an inspection, of course) so I thought that I just needed a tune up, but Scot pulled things apart and found out that one of the connectors on my coil was damaged by whoever put the last one in. I also had a coolant leak (coming from an odd place) and he diagnosed and fixed both problems very fast (just had to wait for the part to arrive). I ended up spending much less than I was worried I was going have to, and now my car runs much better than before. read more

A couple of months ago, my key got stuck in the ignition. It happened late at night, just before I was heading out of town for a long weekend. By the time I got home, my battery had been sucked dry. My car sat dead in my driveway for months. I kept putting off taking it to a mechanic, because I always end up feeling like I'm being taken advantage of, and I hate it. I'd never heard of mobile mechanics, but a friend told me to find one. Scot was awesome. Friendly, professional, prompt. He told me exactly what was going on with the repair and got everything fixed quickly and for an honest price. Easily the best experience I've ever had with a mechanic. read more

Scott with EMS did a great job on my vehicle with me just getting out of the hospital to so many things wrong with my car he fixed it up and was super polite and caring thank you so much I appreciate it read more

Based off the reviews here and also on City Search I gave EMS a call. I am so thankful I did. What we thought to be a fuel issue turned out to be simply replacing spark plugs. Scot was very polite, professional and timely. Having the convenience of a mechanic that comes to your location is amazing. We will definitely use him again with our auto needs. read more

Scott is absolutely AWESOME. I'm self-employed with two businesses to run and always super busy. Taking time out of my day to drive and leave my car somewhere to get worked on is the last thing I ever want to do. So, I took to Yelp to see if there were any good Mobile mechanics out there. After reading Scott's reviews I decided to give him a shot. Then the rainy weather came in. Scott called to let me know he was dodging the storms, and that he'd be in touch to let me know when he could come by. His follow up was awesome as I had even forgotten he was scheduled to come. He arrived to complete our brake job, fixed our washer motor, and did a tune-up (which included an a/c type filter that I had no idea even existed, but it was nasty and now we get some serious airflow!). Finally, an honest auto technician who really cares. You can tell Scott wants to deliver the very best service. He works alone, so call ahead to get on his schedule. I assure you he's worth the wait. read more

I should have done a review for Scott sooner, this guy is absolutely amazing. The first time I used him was back before I had used Yelp and I found him through another site. I was really skeptical to use a mobile mechanic service but I was in a real bind and didn't have another choice. He came out to my house at the time he told me he would and was super friendly and very fast. He even took the time to answer my questions and explain what had caused the issue. After he completed the repair we sat in my driveway talking about his family and the neighborhood I lived in at the time, because he had lived one street over a while back. Amazing guy, amazing service. You are doing yourself and your vehicle an injustice if you use anyone else. read more

Scott with Elite Mobile Services has been the best mechanic I've ever worked with. He is friendly, fast, professional and offers a great price. If you need a mobile mechanic in Austin, he is definitely your guy! read more

The first time I met Scott he came to work on my food truck that another Mobile Mechanic had worked on for five hours and couldn't figure out what the problem was I have to say I would use the other mechanic again because he didn't even charge me for the time which was amazing, Scott figured it out in 15 minutes. The next time I used him he put in a complete fuel injection system in my food truck and charged me half what I was quoted from a garage and I didn't have to drive my truck to the garage and get a ride back from the garage if you don't call him the next time you have a problem with your car or truck you are out of your mind because he will fix it and fix it right five stars for Scott read more

I had a great first time customer experience with Scot regarding a battery replacement. I highly recommend him!

Really dig this guy and his business. He was fantastic through the entire process. He came to my house and serviced our vehicle while we were out of town and the job was great. He communicated through the entire process and for that I've grateful. I wouldn't mind the price being slightly less, and that's the only reason I score 4 stars. However, I understand economics. I will contact him for more work in the future, should it be necessary. The convenience is like no other. read more

I called to ask if he fixed rims. He pointed me toward another company immediately. He was super friendly and nice and told me exactly what I needed to know. Didn't even actually work on my car, but his customer service was on point! read more

Initially I put in a service request for Scott to diagnose an electrical issue I was having. I managed to take care of the problem myself the day before and even sent an email the night prior explaining I had done so. I did however outline in my email that I wanted to replace my driver side wheel bearing. The following day he shows up for about 30 minutes and says it's too late in the day to attempt any work on the wheel bearing since it needs to be taken to a shop and "pressed-out" for approximately $50-75. Alternatively, he mentioned there was a tool (kit) that could be purchased to do it himself costing roughly $100. According to Scott customers seldomly request this service so it was an investment he really didn't think he needed to make (or one that he needed to think about considering the year and model of my vehicle). Despite that fact that zero work was done on my vehicle that day (4/31), I decided to schedule a time to have the bearing replaced (5/8) since that was his earliest availability. Fast forward to today. Scott called me while he was en route to my apartment around 10 A.M. During this brief phone call I asked if he had worked out a price quote for the work being done today. Specifically, how much will I be paying for parts and labor. To which he replied "I haven't done that yet so I really don't know." At this point, I can say I was a little alarmed that a mechanic who's had this particular job scheduled for over a week, who knows precisely what work needs to be done and the parts required for the job has no idea how much this will cost. Not a huge deal but a little odd none the less. I greeted Scott about 10-15 minutes after he showed up (I left my keys in my visor so he could get to work as soon as he arrived) and he'd already gotten the wheel off and was about to take the bearing hub off. I'm not a helicopter customer so I just let him work uninterrupted (there still has not been any mention of labor or parts cost). Approximately 15 or 20 minutes later I notice he's already got the wheel back on and has vacated the premises. My only assumption was that he went to a shop to get the bearing "pressed-out" as he said that was most likely the method he'd pursue the week prior. At this point there was no communication about how Scott was going to fix my wheel bearing so I'm left to make assumptions from prior conversations. 4 HOURS later Scott arrives back at my apartment and has the hub/bearing and tire/rim back on within 20 minutes of being there. I promptly go down and ask how everything went and to get down to brass-tax. LABOR AND PART(s) COST. Which with any other mechanic in the world you'd know prior to getting the service done. Keep in mind, Scott has at no point divulged his per hour rate nor any indication of how much the parts are. Not only does he NOT tell me how much he payed for the parts, he claims he doesn't have a receipt and that he "just cant do that" and that "I don't have one". Not even a minute later after my inquiry he shows me the receipt (after I laughed about him charging me $112 for parts) and it shows he payed $72 for the hub AND the bearing which is insane. A brief google shows you can get a PAIR OF HUBS AND BEARINGS FOR $86 and I payed $72 for ONE. So he flat out lied to my face for no apparent reason. In Scott's own words, he marks up parts between 20%-40% based on availability. I can only imagine the 40% is for parts that are difficult to procure. Scott charged me over 50% mark up value on these parts ($112 on $72 cost). I drive a Honda Civic, so I'm sure the availability of these parts are in excess. Did I mention he also charged me for 2 hours of labor? Call me old fashioned but if you work on a car for 2 hours, you get payed for 2 hours. HE DID NOT SPEND MORE THAN AN HOUR TOTAL ON MY VEHICLE. Nor can I attest to if he actually went to a shop to get this done OR do it himself. Only after specifically asking him did he say that he did the work at home because he forgot a tool. At this point, Scott was yelling at the top of his lungs proclaiming this must be how I get things in life for free. So he then decides that he can drop his labor time down to 1.5 hours for a reason I can only assume is based around guilt. Verbatim, "IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW LONG I SPEND ON THE JOB!!." I mean, are you serious? I told this guy I didn't even care how much it costs at this point, I'm done with the conversation. This was at the MOST a $250 job. That being on the highest end possible with a shop mechanic, I payed this guy $300. In reality, he spent an hour on labor ($100) and $72 in parts. Sooo, $200 seems like a reasonable pay out. I'll let you do the math. read more

Scot was and his service was great! His communication was prompt and clear. Scot came out to my house, diagnosed my car's problem and had it fixed all in a matter of a couple of hours. It's clear to see why he has so many 5 star reviews. I will be using Scot for all of my future car repair needs! read more

I had Scot come out again to fix another issue with the automatic choke on my very old truck. The issue was caused by another mechanic and then that other mechanic was unable to fix the problem when I brought it back to him. Scot took care of it at my house without a problem. read more

Scott was reliable and dependable. Great person. Fixed our bus in 100 degree weather.

Honest, dependable, professional and friendly. Came over to replace front and back brakes on our Subaru Forester. Informed us that the front brakes were still in great shape and only the back needed to be replaced. read more

My check engine started blinking on my home from work, so I pulled over and had my car towed to my house. I contacted Scott ASAP. He said that he could be @ my house around 11:00 the next morning. Since the check engine light was blinking and I had no idea what was wrong, I was very nervous about the cost. After Scott did a full diagnosis, he said that the 3rd cylinder was not firing and that I needed new coils. The cost for all of this was several hundred dollars less than what I would have paid a traditional automotive repair shop, and he had it finished in about 2 hours. I would definitely recommend Elite Mobile Services. It was a great experience. read more

Scot has been tinkering under my hood for more than 20 years now. It's super convenient to have him come to me, and he's always able to tell me just what my car needs. I don't think I've ever had an issue he wasn't able to handle. He's honest, friendly and reliable. I've heartily recommended him to other folks, and will do so again! read more

I pondered as to how I may write this review as I see that there are a lot of good reviews here and my review may tend to be overlooked, but I wanted to go ahead and share my story since it is what I have experienced. I started off looking for a mechanic that had great reviews on Yelp as I believed people with many good experiences would have them because the mechanic was knowledgeable and friendly, so hence I decided to give Elite Mobile Services a call. I booked an appointment and Scott had show up early in the morning to give me a hand. When Scott came I had informed him that my wife's care was not starting and that the A/C was blowing hot air. I was told at Autozone that I needed a new alternator but Scott had informed me that I needed a new battery and went and picked it up for me since I was unable to get there. He then put it in and it worked like a charm. He then attempted to find the underlying cause as to why the A/C was blowing hot air. He checked the hoses and concluded that the problem was a small leak and that the schrader valve had a leak and replaced those valves in the car. He then evacuated the refrigerant and filled it up again. The air worked and everything seemed great and I was quite satisfied. The whole thing costed me 300+ and a tip I had left because I believe it was a job well done Come a little less than a month the car was blowing hot air again, and I felt distressed, so I called him again and he came out and used a UV leak checker I believe it was and still could no conclude the problem. So he said he would have to replace the hoses in there which was going to cost 400+ at this point I was kind of dumbfounded wondering if he was serious after already charging me 300+, but he was. He told me he could do it that day or that I could wait until he got back from vacation. I was really upset and will not be using Elite Mobile Services again. The only reason I give you two stars is because you went and got my battery. read more
