Long story short, they sold me a motor they said was jdm low mile motor. It was a high mileage motor. Don't trust them go some where else. I had to go spend more money for another motor at another business. read more

You should check them out if you need engine or transmission work; they're fast, friendly, and have good prices.

I'm the owner of a new n used car dealership n Victorville, Ca. I've been doing business with Andrew for @ least 8 years now. Every time i call for a specific foreign (Japanese) car part, Andrew has either had the part available, or has gotten the part for me within a 48 hr turnaround. Myself as well as my customers have been totally satisfied with the quality replacement parts as well as his customer service. Thanks Andrew read more

Absolutely amazing service! these guys got my 06 Honda Pilot Dialed in after it's engine blew. I'll definitely be doing business again.

Read all the 1 star review and see if you want to take the chances!! Both valve cover and oil pan are leaking within 5 months, apparently they didn't replace any gaskets and seals as promised! The engine condition is terrible and sludge! LIAR! 100% LIE and SCAM!! I read all the 1-star reviews and thought there might have been some misunderstandings, especially with so many positive reviews, but after my experience, I can confirm that it's true--this place is a total scam! I initially contacted them about a 2005 Honda Accord engine swap, and they quoted me $1995, later offering a reduced price of $1799. They sent me pictures of their work, and the engine bay looked pristine, which gave me confidence in their services. They told me that all parts and fluids were included, but when I asked about spark plugs, they mentioned they would charge extra for those, which seemed odd since spark plugs are usually considered part of the engine components. After dropping off my car, I was reassured by Andrew that everything, including seals, fluids, and parts, was covered. However, when I picked up my car, the engine bay was dusty and oily--nothing like the clean photos they had sent. Upon closer inspection, I found oil all over the subframe near the oil pan, which led me to believe they hadn't properly cleaned the area after installation. I cleaned up the oil myself, but two days later, the oil was back. I contacted Andrew, and he asked me to drop the car off again. After a week, they returned the car, claiming they had fixed the oil pan leak. However, when I noticed a new oil leak from the main seal, I brought the car back. Andrew admitted that they hadn't replaced any parts, since I declined the spark plugs and when I argued with him wasn't it supposed to be included, he told me to find someone else to fix it! I had no choice but to pay extra to fix the main seal. Reluctantly, I paid an additional $250 for the main seal repair. However, I continued having issues with oil consumption--about 1 quart every 400 miles, turns out it was the engine burs oil and was not just leaking! After more back-and-forth, they replaced the engine, charging me an extra $279 for a radiator replacement with an unknown brand, the Denso radiator I bought for my other Accord only cost $100! When I picked up the car, it was still oily and dusty, and though the oil pan no longer leaked and the coolant was as clean as water! Charged me $279 and added water to the radiator! None of the seals look like they were changed! And they had broken all the connector clips from the spark plugs to the throttle body. To make matters worse, I'm still adding oil regularly--about 1 quart every 1000 miles. Overall, this experience has been a total waste of time and money. They did not deliver the quality of work they promised, and I ended up with an engine that burns oil and who knows how long it will last! SHAME on you!! read more

Amazing place for quality used engines and transmissions! Honda and Foreign Auto in Riverside is hands down the best place I've ever dealt with for used engines and transmissions. Their customer service is seriously next level -- super friendly, honest, and always willing to help you find exactly what you need. They really take the stress out of the whole process. I've bought multiple engines and transmissions from them over the years, and every single one has been reliable, long-lasting, and ran strong. You can tell they actually care about what they sell and stand behind the quality of their parts. It's hard to find that kind of consistency and honesty these days, but these guys deliver every time. What really stands out is how easy they make everything. They're knowledgeable, straightforward, and never try to upsell you -- just good, solid parts that perform the way they should. Every engine and transmission I've bought from them has gone the distance, and I wouldn't go anywhere else. If you're looking for dependable used Honda or foreign engines and transmissions and great customer service to go with it, this is the place. Highly recommend -- 5 stars all the way! read more

Don't judge a book buy it's cover. These guys did a amazing job from start to finish! They actually called me a few times to see if I wanted to save money here and there. I unfortunately needed a new transmission and if your gonna pull the motor out and it has 264k miles you may as well do both if you can afford it. Even tho these engines go way over 300k with proper care. The best part is it only took a week to do the job! I was amazed, seriously. Got there and everything looked nice, sounded sweet, and the price was right on point. Thank you very very much for getting my Nissan Altima 2.5s back in action, it's really like having a new car. I put about 500 miles on it and no issues what so ever. read more

He took care of my car on replacing with new engine (2ZR-EF engine approximately 40k miles taken out from newer models) that came from Japan. He got it done in 2 days and provided 90 days warranty. He checked up on how car was running after a few days. My car run good without any issue now; no more check engine light, no cylinder misfire and no engine shaking or vibrating. Andrew did the great job with reasonable price. Great customer service. Highly recommended! read more

Honda & Foreign Auto - Old engine out and new one in.. - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

They are very helpful in finding parts we need. I have found most of parts for Honda needs with them. The prices are at incredible too.

I was charged 2,400 for a 98 accord. Advertising 650 for engine. False advertising 59,000 mile engine!!! All seals were bad on the engine. They stole my original parts for used parts and gaskets.... Come to find out all my seals were bad. Even stole my red valve gasket that I put myself from autozone. (Didn't have it on pick up) Picking up the car, the son of owner put oil in the car before I picked it up..... charged me 1400 on pick up... they knew it was leaking. I got a diagnostic test later... come to find out my Mechanic said all seals were bad.... And odometer was not 59,000... as advertised They don't have legit paperwork or receipts. Lost 2,400 dollars for a 98 accord. I don't know what to do. The bank took their side.... I'm hurt... read more

Honda & Foreign Auto - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

They did a really great job at getting my 2006 Honda Accord in and out with a new JDM engine. Runs great and feels like a new car again. My last engine took me 236,000 miles and I just got used to how it ran but when I drive now it performs and sounds the way that it was meant to and that is great. I will not hesitate to call them again when something happens that is too big for me to handle. These guys respond quickly and are super helpful. read more

I have purchased multiple Honda engines, and Manual Transmissions from Honda Foreign. I haven't had any issues with the engines, or the rebuilt transmissions. I do not like writing review for great places in hopes to keep it a secret, However these guys deserve the reviews after all the years of great service. I had purchased a JDM engine elsewhere once and after all the work I found out there was an issue with the engine (from another shop). Had to pull it and complete another swap. Honda Foreign stepped into help me out even though I cheated on them LOL. You can't go wrong with these guys. Business doesn't get better than this!! read more

You know the drill - Buy a car online at an unbelievable price. Seller says it needs a little work. Other than that a great car. Long story short - engine had a blown head gasket. Dead in the water and worthless. Just before I called to have it hauled away and just write it off as a loss - I run into Honda & Foreign Auto repair. Let me tell you - they are the one stop shop. Not only did they sell me a "great" low mileage engine - they installed it too. Prices vary but I was extremely happy with my engine and experience with Honda & Foreign Auto repair. I kept my word - they kept there's. Keep up the good work. One happy customer Brought my car over on a flatbed - drove it home with a smile on my face. read more

Honda & Foreign Auto - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

I had these guys put a motor in my 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid when the original blew at 280K miles. Not only did they beat the price of everyone else I called, but the kept their word on pricing. I'd paid for the engine and work in advance, they hadn't done a hybrid before and it was a lot more work than they were expecting. To their credit, not once did they demand more money for the job. They got the work done and let me know that going forward they knew what to charge for this particular job. Honda UPDATE: 4/23/18 I've put 4K on the engine since and had zero issues. I've also purchased a Scion TC engine from them for $200 below what everyone else in town charges. Motor ran great after I got it in my car, unlucky for me my trans was bad, no 4th gear or overdrive. I'm having them put the Trans in and will update my review afterwards but I expect no problems. :) UPDATE: 4/23/18 They finished putting in the new trans and diagnosed a problem with the ECU, it was properly fried so they put a used one in for me and re-programmed the key. When I went to pick up the car it ran great, very up front with the work that went into it and the little things it still needed. Let me know I had an exhaust leak that should be fixed by a proper exhaust shop etc. I've since put over 1500 miles on the engine/trans and not had a single problem. My only critique of these is they could do better in the communication department, but they are always busy working in the yard and on cars so for the price I really can't complain to much. Either way, very knowledgeable and very fair price wise. I'll drive out from Santa Clarita to get work done by them. 10/10 Would send all my friends here for engine blocks. read more

Honda & Foreign Auto - 2008 Scion TC Engine/Trans 1K after install. - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

My cousin that goes to UCR has a 2005 Honda Accord 2.4 thats been really reliable in the past but the engine has started to fail. I did some research about the best auto shops in Riverside and I landed on Honda & Foreign. I called on a Monday, and was greeted by one of the brothers that owns the shop named Andrew. He assured me that I could get a low mileage JDM engine installed with labor for $1499 in 2-3 days. I was a little bit skeptical about how fast it was going to get done but he sounded trust worthy and knowledgeable over the phone! Andrew was also really good about giving updates via text message about the progression of the job. I dropped the car off Monday morning and was able to pick the car up Wednesday, at the shop they offer a lot of payment methods for their clients I just ended up paying cash. If you are in the Riverside or anywhere in the Inland Empire I would recommend coming to this shop! Ask for Andrew read more

Brothers, Andrew and Allen, provided excellent customer service in replacing our 2002 Honda Civic motor and other engine parts to make it run smoothly again. Their prices are reasonable and work is high quality. We are very satisfied and highly recommend their services! read more

The motor in my car had failed 7/19/21. I called them and they quoted me a price and time frame. Once I arrived, they explained potential unexpected costs and price (clutch, which is understandable). They we're very straight forward about the process and answered any questions I had. Even had a follow up contact once I arrived home which was very nice! Definitely recommending and referring. Will continue to monitor motor but as of now all seems in order and I'm happy with my choice. 7/27/21 read more

A ten day job turned into four months and counting. Been told my car was done, then it isnt...rounds with this guy. It was a freaking ENGINE SWAP. THATS IT. An engine swap doesn't take 4+ months. I had to buy another vehicle because that was our one and only family car, which is a killer when you have 5 kids. Sadly, this guy KNOWS that. So basically what I'm saying, is I wish I could post a negative 10 review here. I have to file a lawsuit just to get my car back, not to mention lost wages and everything else this headache has caused I guess. If anyone else is dealing with a similar issue with these people, please contact me. read more

I have had a 2010 Pontiac Vibe for several years. A few months ago , it started overheating and losing coolant. Long story short, the local mechanics in the area quoted prices as much as the value of the car itself to either rebuild or replace the engine, so, the car sat for a few months until i would decide what I was going to do. Luckily, I found Honda and foreign repair. Abtin and Andrew had the motor I needed but intalled it too. The car runs like new. Abtin and Andrew were very professional and were a priced less than half of the other mechanics. They are truly specialists at what they do. The car was returned to me at the time promised, with no leaks stutters or issues. They saved my car. The value of having honest professionals on your side cannot be beat. Thank you for taking care of us. read more
