These other places wanted to charge $100+ just for a quick 5 min diagnostic. Lester's was very straightforward with me as to what they thought was the problem over the phone, and didn't charge me a single thing for a diagnostic. They don't upcharge on the parts and have a very fair pricing model, and were able to diagnose the issue and change all my spark plugs for 30% cheaper than what other shops were estimating it would cost. They also gave me great advice on how to fix my bumper's scrapes, without having to refinish the whole thing. Lester's is one of the most HONEST and STRAIGHTFORWARD mechanics I've been to, and they don't try to sell you more than what you need. I had a great experience here and will definitely come back here for all my future auto/body repair needs.

He arrived on time, fully prepared, and handled everything with total professionalism. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and done right in my driveway, which saved me the hassle of going to a shop or waiting around for hours. He explained what they were doing, gave me insight on the process in general, and left everything clean afterwards. He even threw on my spare when we discovered I had a flat tire. It's such a relief to have someone trustworthy and skilled come to my location for car repairs.

They were so helpful and I even got to spend some time with a wonderful, beautiful , rescue dog, I believe her name was Sage, a Weimer Reiner mix. They were so efficient, quick, and kind with my situation, knowing that it was going to get dark soon and I needed my headlamp working. I live in a small town and it's hard to find automotive help right away when you need it. I highly recommend them and if I am back in San Marcos and need any other automotive help, I will definitely reach out to them. Five star service.

Over a year ago, we had a great experience here. The San Antonio Mercedes dealership told us our…read moreolder Mercedes needed $1,000's in work and the service manager (Tim) assured us this was untrue and righted our course. Later, they replaced a fuel pump at a reasonable rate. This year, we brought the car in (check engine light was on) and were told we needed a new thermostat which they charged well above the predicted market rate to perform. There is a new service manager who is polite but I just didn't feel the same trust that I had the year before. 3 days after the thermostat replacement, the check engine light was back on and Dealer Alternative told us the waste gate was stuck "open" and unfortunately the entire turbo system would need to be replaced. Gulp, $4,200+ I checked with a well known foreign car garage in Austin and they provided a Mercedes master mechanic contact. $271 later, the master mechanic has replaced a breather hose, a vacuum hose , reconnected two loose hoses and of course charged the diagnostic fee around the turbo issue. Guess what, the turbo is fine and the car purrs. So, did Dealer Alternative knock hoses loose which created the code, or take a short path and just use the code to justify an expensive repair? Did they lie flat out about the waste gate being stuck? I don't know. But I'm very disappointed and don't feel they are the right folks for something other than minor repairs
