Great customer service and very knowledgeable staff. I went there on Saturday morning few weeks ago to get my smog check done with appointment. They took care of my vehicle and very reasonable price to perform the service. read more

If you're looking for an honest mechanic, go see Neil. I was worried about finding a shop that wouldn't cut corners on my Prius's 100k-mile service. After searching AI Neil saved me hundreds compared to the dealership and b"eat the prices of every AI recommended good local shop. His integrity is unmatched, and his work gave me the peace of mind that my car will last another 100k miles. "Best prices and best service in the area!" read more

The tire air sensors stopped working within a year. Neil replaced them with no additional cost.

Conejo Valleys #1 Auto Shop! Neil's Auto Shop is truly one of those rare gems you wish everyone knew about. Neil has been in the business for over 25 years, and what makes him stand out isn't just his experience, but his incredible humility and dedication. Even as the owner, he's there every single day, working hands-on and treating every customer like family. I first found Neil 10 years ago when I needed help, and he came through for me without hesitation. Fast-forward to today even though he has moved and is farther away. I still call him because I know there's no one else I'd trust. Neil is the definition of honest and reliable. He never price gouges, always explains everything clearly, and truly cares about his customers. As a woman, I've always felt completely comfortable and safe in his shop, knowing he would never take advantage or recommend something unnecessary. He works with integrity, kindness, and a commitment to doing things the right way every single time. If you're looking for a mechanic who's not just talented, but genuinely cares about you and your car, Neil is your guy.

Highly recommend to anyone who wants quality work from someone who truly stands behind what he does. Thank you, Neil,you're the best! read more

My 2020 Subaru Forester broke down and threw over a dozen error codes. Instead of just guessing or throwing expensive parts at the problem, they carefully diagnosed the root cause and honestly told me it possibly was a known defect that would be covered for free under a dealership extended warranty. They easily could have charged me for unneeded repairs but their integrity came first. Rare to find a mechanic that is honest and knowledgeable. Earned my trust and my business. Thanks Niel. read more

Neil is the only guy I trust with my car. I've been coming here for service for 10 years, and now my whole family uses him. Trustworthy, good prices and Neil is super friendly! read more

I took my Expedition for Lean Fuel (PO171). Neil found many tubes for the vacuum were dissolved and cracked due to my car being 26+ years old. He found all the leaks and put in new tubing, and the truck runs great now and passed Smog. His prices are lower than other shops in Moorpark. I will definitely be back for any car issues in the future. read more

I recommend Niel's auto service to anyone that needs honest diagnostics and repairs . I brought my Mercedes to Niel because of his good reviews and I wasn't disappointed, Niel has built his business and reputation with honest and ethical practices. thanks again Niel read more

This is a great auto repair shop in Moorpark. Niel is a friendly guy, fair priced, does a great job, and does it quickly. Next time your vehicle needs service try Niels you won't be disappointed. read more

Honest and fair. Have taken my new beetle in for many issues and they have been able to solve my problems. Really seems to care.

Niel quoted me a fair price for fixing three items on my car. I agreed to the price. When he charged me, it was less than the invoice. Niel works with integrity and shares his love of God through His work. read more

Ignore all the fake family and friend reviews. This guy is the LEAST trust worthy mechanic in Southern California and maybe the United States. I took my truck in to remove some part. He told me the part wasn't there. I know it was BECAUSE I PUT IT THERE. I was being nice sure thanks for looking. All the sudden something was wrong with the radiator. This idiot didn't realize my truck was under bumper to bumper warranty. The dealership fixed his scam free of charge. Neil's automotive broke / replaced a good part with a bad one. This guy wakes up in the morning thinking he's smart, but can't pass 7th grade algebra that's why he's a mechanic. Stay far far far far away from this shop. This guy is one of those guys thinks he's smart but he's not. read more

I need to start this review with a few words about the COMPETITOR (Chris Auto whatever) across the parking lot from Niel. I brought my car there initially with warning lights on the dashboard, knowing that a diagnostic would only take 5 minutes. The proprietor was rude, sarcastic, and immediately tried to tell me the lights indicated a failing hybrid battery. I had already researched the problem online and knew there could be several reasons for these lights. The electronic diagnostic tool that all of these places use only takes 5 minutes to reveal the issue, and I asked if he would mind just doing this quick test so I knew what I was dealing with. His response? "Sure, I'll just call up all these customers and tell them their appointments are trash and move you to the front!" I left this a$$hole snickering, and drove literally across the parking lot to where Niel also had a full garage of customers. The difference was, he understood common courtesy and had no problem immediately plugging in the tool and letting me know, "it's the inverter pump." Not a big deal repair. Certainly not a $2800 hybrid battery. Guess which garage is going to get my business for this repair? Thanks, Niel! read more

It's hard to find a good mechanic. Highly recommend Niels. He fixed my bumper after I absent mindedly went in Drive instead of Reverse in the Vons parking lot and seriously f*cked the front end of my car on one of their little islands. I took it in on a Thursday evening, he had the necessary parts ordered and I picked up on Friday late afternoon. Very, very reasonable prices and fast service and great communication. He also tightened something that was causing an oil leak from when I got my oil changed at a different establishment about a month ago. Found our new go-to for all things car related. read more

I just tried Neil after recommendation from a friend and in matter of a week I had two of my cars worked on by Neil. So far so good. He seems honest and they know what they are doing and they seem reasonable. I'm glad I finally found a good mechanic close to home. Thanks Neil. read more

Neil is amazing. He got me in and out the same day. I needed a new alternator; Neil provided me with a quote and was extremely professional. The service was amazing, he even texted me to make sure my car is running smoothly. Today, I needed my tire patched and again Neil came through. All at a very affordable price, and I did not feel pressured by him nor his team to get any "extra" work done which I really appreciated. They also put air in my tires!! This is my go-to for my auto needs. Thank you guys so much! read more

Always a pleasure! Thanks for taking care of my car. You and your car are in good hands with Niel!

N N Neil He is a great guy, did a wonderful job on my windshield. I would definitely go back for other services I recommend him to everybody. read more

I was recommended to go to Niel and I couldn't be happier. I heard a strange noise coming from my car. I dropped it off and he had it all fixed by the next day! He was quick and efficient. The other shops I took my car to quoted 3X higher and would take longer. read more

Niels Auto Service gave me competitive pricing. After taking my Lexus to the dealership for service I was shocked at how much I was quoted for brakes. Niel checked my vehicle and came back with a fair estimate. He did the work the same day and also switched my wipers for half the price of the Lexus dealership. All I can say is he made me one happy customer. Niel was very knowledgeable and overall a nice, honest guy. My car is running great and I will definitely be a repeat customer. read more

Niels Auto Service was the only place to answer my call on a Monday afternoon, and I'm glad they did. From the very beginning I was treated with honesty and cordially. They fixed my issues in a timely manner and for a fair price, despite several days of non-stop rain. I will be coming back if I have any other issues and will recommend them to everyone. Thank you!! read more

Came in to have tire repaired. Fast service Johnny boy helped me out. Got me back on the road in minutes. I have had my car fixed here many times great auto repair. fred read more

He tried to gaslight me on quote and pricing. Here's the facts... I needed brake service six months ago to fix a squeal that was driving me crazy. Neil quoted $600 to replace pads and rotors - we had a detailed conversation about it. Dealer quoted $850. I took my car to Neil and he said the pads were fine and suggested that we just machine the rotors instead for $280 - I have the receipt. Now six months later, my brakes are squealing again and I just wanted to replace pads and rotors. So, I tried to go back to Neil and asked if he could honor the original $600 quote for the new work. He said it would be over $900 now. When I was surprised by the increase, he said I was wrong about the original quote and claimed that I just misunderstood. Um, again, we had a very detailed conversation about it that I remember very clearly. So, I called Midas.... guess what? They quoted $600 for pads and rotors just like Neil's original quote. Where do you think I took my car? (hint, not Neil) I'm giving Neil 1 star here NOT because he increased his price by 150% (people can charge whatever they want, although that might mean I don't buy). The problem is the gaslighting about the original quote. That is exactly the kind of thing that a bad repair shop does - increase the price AND THEN gaslight you about it. BTW, the guy at Midas was like an encyclopedia on brakes. He new exactly what was causing the squeal and offered me a quick education on everything related to my brakes... common specs, pad materials, history of various products, etc. In the end, we opted to just swap out my pads (even though they were still technically fine) with some higher-quality pads and then machine the rotors again (because there was still plenty of life in them, which he explained using concrete facts - numbers). I spent significantly less than the quoted $600... again. Fingers crossed that the brake squeal is fixed this time. read more

I had a check engine light pop on my car, and I freaked out, dropped my car off at Neil's within the hour. He looked at the car and was able to tell me exactly whats wrong with it, which was the water pump. I wasn't in my normal town so I didn't decide to repair there, but he was extremely helpful regardless and it turned out he actually had a better price than my local mechanic. Thanks Neil! read more

THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE TO TAKE YOUR CAR!!! Niel is knowledgeable, reliable, efficient and honest. Car troubles are never fun, but going over to his shop makes the whole process easier and seamless. Even if you do not live close by, it will be worth your drive! I would give a 1,000 stars if I could. read more

I got my 240sx towed in after it stopped running on the fwy. The alternator went out and blew a Fuze. They guys did a great job finding and installing the parts necessary (not easy to find parts for these cars ). It runs good now, thank you Neil I'll def be back for any other issues with my cars. read more

Fake Battery! I changed my battery with them on July and it stops holding power in just under 3 months. They charged me $130 for their battery which performed poorly! Avoid them!! read more

Neil has helped out several of my families cars for the past decade. Most honest and reliable mechanic I can refer in Ventura county.

I went to Niels about three weeks ago to have my new truck inspected. I showed up the first day after calling and scheduling an appointment but somewhere along the line there must have been a mix up. He told me to come back tomorrow instead to have it checked out. The next day his mechanics gave a brief lookover on it and told me it needed a drag link and new steering linkage. I had been planning on selling the truck beforehand and I listed it for sale with the reassurance of his diagnosis. I posted the truck for sale at a generous price because it needed a little work and couple weeks later a buyer came to test drive it. He was happy with the truck and willing to fix it up but he wanted to have a mechanic inspect it for himself. He suggested to take it to "a mechanic down the road," which was none other than Niel's automotive! We drove back to the shop to have it inspected so the buyer could have the same confidence in the truck as I had but when we arrived Niel just took a look at me and laughed. He said he didn't want to inspect a truck he had already taken a look at. After an uncomfortable 30-45 minute wait he reluctantly put the truck back on the rack for the buyer's sake. This time when his mechanics were through looking at my truck he claimed my truck had frame damage, it needed a whole new front end, and the brakes were about to go out. He made me out to be a liar and gave my buyer the impression that my clean title truck had been in an unreported accident! I was utterly humiliated and on the verge of tears. The buyer however, was a soldier in the Navy and believed what I said about having been to Niel's before and said he'd buy my truck whether or not the frame was damaged. We drove down to a body shop that specializes in frame correction and once they took a quick look around they said my truck is fine! I didn't know what to think anymore! I just let the buyer pick a price and take the truck. I had been wanting to get a dirtbike for weeks and I didn't care anymore. The next day I got a text from the buyer saying the suspension is actually fine and it just needed a little front end work with the drag link and some bushings. My experience at Niel's was utterly humiliating and I'm out a couple thousand dollars that I could have had if I hadn't taken my truck to here. read more

So grateful to Niel for fixing my car whenever I need help. His shop is conveniently located and there are places I can go sit (eating, shopping, etc.) and chill while they work and do their magic. I came in on a Friday afternoon and in the time it took for me to get a quick bite and make a few calls, my vehicle was ready to go back on the road. Very handy to have a smog shop next to his auto repair where he knows how to test all parts, tires, etc. 'cause he has plenty of bays. Thanks again, Niel. Hope it will be a long time before I visit Buddy:) read more

I usually fix my own cars. But when I can't I take it to niels. I was fortunate to find a true mechanic that is honest and fair priced additional upselling is not a issue he is honest and tells you the truth what needs to be changed only, and not extra that's what I like about this place. Best shop due professional service good work and good price. read more

Super quick and very friendly! They fixed my back lights that were out on my car. Plus they're conveniently open on Saturdays.

I called in late on a Saturday for an oil change and they were supper accommodating, not to mention that their prices were super reasonable. Haven't had an opportunity to rate them on anything more than an oil change but will definitely come back again. read more

Let me preface by saying this is probably only my second ever review. I found this place almost a year ago when they were the only place that could get me in as an emergency late in the day. Not only was niel and his team terrific then, but they have been ever since. Niel will never charge you extra or even recommend doing something he wouldn't get if he was you. He could've charged me so much today, but I left paying 30$. I'm writing this review for those of you who are on the fence about where to take your car...just come here. I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

Niel and his crew are the only ones that touch our family's cars. His prices are fair and I'm always certain service will be done right.

If you are looking for HONEST TRUSTWORTHY professionals Niel and his staff are the right mechanics. After moving to Thousand Oaks in 2014 and getting ripped off by the dealership I came across Niel from a church referral. Immediately I was impressed by his professionalism as a honest trustworthy mechanic. I have referred my neighbors and friends to Niel all whom have had great experiences as well. So when my Cadillac is acting up I call him right away and he fits me in even if my car is being towed in he offers early drop off service and after hours pick up. I wouldn't trust my Cadillac with anyone else. Niel even took the time to work with the extended warranty company to help me get the most from my warranty. His prices are reasonable & his service is top quality. read more
