If you're looking for an honest mechanic in New Orleans then Melvin is your guy. He took care of…read moremy and my husbands cars for the 5 years we lived in New Orleans. Wasn't the closest mechanic but we went out of our way to go to him. Super nice and a straight shooter on what your car needs or doesn't need. It's a small shop and they're always busy with cars already there from the day or days before, so they may not be able to get you in and out that day which is totally fair and understandable! Best to call or get there first thing in the AM and Melvin & Kurt will absolutely do their best to get you in as he can with the jobs they've already committed to. He runs the shop, works the cars AND also answers the phone, so don't be discouraged if it rings for a minute or you have to call back, he's only one guy! Only reason we left is because we moved out of state but I would recommend Melvin and his crew to anyone. Thank you Melvin!

It was a good amount of work at a very fair price. When I picked it up, hold me about work that it would probably be good to have done in the future, but he didn't include it in the quote or the work because he knew it was a good chunk of change and was not a pressing issue (not as pressing as my original repair), preferring to tell me in person, which I very much appreciated. Will be going back again.

A friend mentioned going to Marks in MidCity.

The very next day, before lunch I received a call stating my car was ready for pick up. I don't understand the mechanics of it all but needless to say the check engine light is OFF and my car is running smoothly without breaking the bank, thanks Mr. Mark!

I drive a 2005 Sedan Deville Cadillac & keep it in excellent condition thanks to Geilding auto Service which has had complete & exclusive care of my automobile for several reasons. One must make an appointment, this assures you that at that time on that day your auto is being inspected & the problem detected as quickly as possible. Once the problem is detected, parts are ordered for the repair. They understand we all need our car & their mission is to get it back to you as soon as possible & working perfectly. They are quick, efficient & the only time I've ever called to say it still didn't feel right they found they had received a bad part..remember my car is 20 yrs old...they notified me & there was no charge at all, including several hours of labor. HONESTY!!! I have no idea if their prices are better or worse than others since I haven't been to another repair shop in many years having spent years & years taking it to the dealership or another shop where it took days to repair and would often be back in the shop within 2-3 weeks. They are tops!!

Took my vehicle in for an oil change and tire rotation…read more Steve and his team of experts recommended that I cross my front tires to the rear since they noticed slight feathering on the outside of the front tires. They said it would help smooth out the tread and prolong the life of my tires. There was also an issue around 2000 RPMs that caused my vehicle to shake. I thought it was my transmission starting to fail. After performing diagnostics on my vehicle they had found that one of my coils was bad and they were able to replace it that same day. I am currently enjoying a smooth ride. Thank you Geiling Automotive for being awesome.

Brought the car in about 2-3 months ago to have the starter changed. Great job, 1 day turn around…read more Now, half way to work one morning at a red light the car started idling really rough, trying to kill. Had to keep revving it to keep it going. All the dash lights lighting up. The car guys at work say its most likely the MAF sensor. I changed that but still the same problem. Brought it to the shop. 3 days later they call me, they found the problem. On the manifold, theres a bolt that fell out creating an air leak. He says he noticed I have a new starter. Probably whoever changed the starter thought he needed to remove that bolt. I go to pick it up expecting no charges but he has a bill for me. I asked why, since he told me the guy that changed the starter probably did it. He asked who changed it and I told him they did. "Well, why didnt you have problems for 3 months?" "I thought that same thing. My best guess is he put it back but didnt tighten it. 3 months of vibration did it." "No way my guys did that. Nobody knows why that bolt fell out." Im not trying to say anything bad about their work, forgetting to tighten one bolt happens. I just didnt feel I should be charged for it. Business ethics. It was a simple mistake, but its pretty obvious what happened.

I brought my vehicle to Allen's Automotive Services after leaving from another shop that had done a…read morediagnostic test and it determined that I needed transmission work/repair done. So I was able to drive it to Allen's Automotive on Utica St. in Metairie, La. I explain the repair work according to the diagnostic reading from the first shop who weren't able to do the work, the employee asked what code did the diagnostic machine give, I called the other shop and the tech sent via text, the code as well as a picture as it was still in his machine I shared it with D. DillenKoffer at Allen's Automotive Services, who then said to me yes we can take care of it for you. So I left my vehicle there at Allen's Automotive. Couple days go by and I get an email from Allen's Automotive in the form of a bill for $3,557.37, which I didn't have but I was relieved to see that there was financing available, so I had the work financed and approved in late January (2026) I got a text that my vehicle was ready to be picked up and because I had the work financed that all was a go I had filled out the necessary documents for the financing part and that it was cleared and I was able to come and get my vehicle, however when I arrived I was told by V. April that it didn't go thru (financing) but actually what he did was added the labor for a part I had supplied which I did not have a problem with but it was just the way he went about it, stating that the financing didn't go thru. I had started receiving emails asking to review Allen's Automotive Services at the time I wasn't quite ready to review Allen's Automotive Services. So I have my vehicle about two months and I noticed oil leaking from the exact spot where the work was performed, so I brought the vehicle back once I noticed the transmission oil leaking, once back at the shop explaining the oil leak I noticed that I was treated differently from when I initially went in for the work to be done, the tech got on it and tightened the bolts of the transmission pan, he used a small hand held battery charged rachet to tighten the bolts. I then get in my vehicle and left, I think that was in mid March, on or about August 4th or so I noticed another oil leak in my driveway under the vehicle so I took pictures of the leak under vehicle as well as oil on the transmission bolts on front of pan and on the rear pan bolts as well as the side pan bolts also, I got under vehicle and touched my finger on one of the bolts that had an oil droplet on it and rubbed it between my fingers, the color of the oil was red as in transmission oil. I called the office and asked if I could get a copy of a receipt that I had misplaced, the lady asked my name or number she located the receipt and sent it to me via email I wasn't sure if work was still under warranty so I brought the vehicle back to the shop again. I was explaining that the transmission was leaking oil again one of the techs said he'd come out and check transmission oil and top transmission oil off and that they weren't able to do anything else that day because they were full. The tech check trans oil and topped it off. He and I walk back in the office and he checks the work order just to be sure it was covered under the warranty the tech then tells me to bring the vehicle back Tuesday August 11th so I asked the tech if I could get something in writing because if I had gotten a trip out of town that it might've brought me over the warranty miles and another guy in the office answered as if he was irritated with my presence and questioning concerning the warranty and he snapped at me saying look we're gonna honor your warranty alright and I asked who he was and he replied in a puffed up manner oh I'm the GM over the shops, and if I say we're gonna honor it we will, it was V. April. So I leave the shop drove to New Orleans and then back to my home in Laplace, La that was Friday August 7th. I came home and parked vehicle and didn't move or drive it till Tuesday August 11th when I brought the vehicle back and it was parked across the street from the shop in back of some Banquet Hall, Wednesday (today) I get a text explaining inspection performed and that it was found to be motor oil blowing back on transmission pan bolts and oil leaking from valve covers on engine and I was sent another bill totaling over $6,000.00 for that work which I declined. I really don't/didn't feel they handle this properly and my warranty wasn't honored, nothing was done about transmission leak cause I know what I touched on my fingers was red transmission fluid, no one can make me think it was anything else.

That is what you get. One of the best things about them is how they traige your vehicle; they tease out what needs to be done today from what can wait, and they tell you how long it can wait.
