They did inspection, diagnostics, test drive and found zero problems. Thankfully Ford waived the $199 diagnostic fee, which was kind of them, otherwise it would have been a $350 oil change.

The report itself was very detailed with pictures, and he noted anything that was amiss.

I have written a review of Daniel's work 2 years ago, and want to renew it:…read more He has now inspected 5 used cars for me and my wife, and his work is thorough, quick, accurate, and completely reliable. He looked at one and called us and said "Walk away from this one", and told us in detail why. That call alone probably saved us thousands, and great inconvenience. He looked at another, told us exactly what was good and bad about it; we bought it; and he seems to have been entirely accurate. For details, see my 2019 review. We are *not* car people -- we have a very modest understanding of what to look at in buying a used car. But his work has made our decisions far more comfortable. I cannot recommend him too highly -- and this is based on 5 different inspections, over two years.

But it's possible it'd been cleaned up before they arrived... - Mechanic arrived at dealership more than two hours late and I received no notification about this, and my calls asking for an updated ETA were dropped From time of mechanics arrival to when I received findings, the inspection took between 30-45 minutes including a test drive.

Orion helped me dodge a huge bullet with a car I was thinking about buying. From what the…read moredealership told me about the car, and all the pictures of it online, it looked clean. The inspection told a very different story. Orion told me all the issues it had and gave it to me straight that the car itself was unsafe to even test drive in it's current state, as it had bits of metal showing in the oil among other major issues. I would've otherwise spent more money fixing the car than the car itself was worth had it not been for the knowledge I gained from the inspection. As for pricing goes, it is pretty competitive for the area, and with the background knowledge and passion he has for anything automotive-related, I don't think there is a better guy to have do a pre-purchase inspection for a used car in the Portland area.

Thankfully, The Car Friend exists! I cannot recommend this Car Buying Coach Service highly enough. Orion helped me on every step of this complex process. If I didn't have his services, I probably would have bought an exact replacement for my old car. Instead, he: * listened to what I WANTED in a car (not just what I saw advertised) * introduced me to 8 newer models I didn't know existed * helped me navigate common Craigslist & used dealership scams * physically inspected the cars I fell in love with, and ultimately *helped me negotiate a great vehicle at an honest price that left both me and the seller feeling like we both won.

I used their extremely detailed inspection report to give potential buyers a better idea of the current state of the vehicle than I ever could have.

I used their most comprehensive (signature) inspection which included a detailed report of the vehicle as well as lots of helpful pictures.
