Once I was moving, I only made it down the street before all power failed in my car and I had to coast to a stop. It is to my great luck and joy that I coasted to a stop in the parking lot of Oak Knoll Automotive. When I walked in, I was greeted by Bobby, who spoke to me like I was his friend and communicated clearly what he thought the issue might be, how long it would take and approximate cost. There were techs buzzing around the bays hard at work, so instead of making me wait forever, Bobby went out and took a look at my car himself and got it into the garage out of the 100+ heat. I ended up spending a couple hours in the waiting room (which was thoughtfully decorated and had plenty to read or watch) before Bobby told me they needed to keep the car overnight. This morning, I got a call from Bobby first thing where he told me the plan for the day and when I should expect to hear back from him. Like clockwork, he called me back to let me know my car was ready and gave me a price breakdown of the repair work done. All-in-all, this place was wildly helpful, communicated clearly about the work done, and priced fairly. Going into an auto shop as a woman by yourself can be intimidating, but this shop defies that expectation and rises to make for a terrific experience for all. I would recommend this place to my friends and family any day!

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience here and feel like I was taken advantage of because…read moreI'm a woman who doesn't know much about cars. My car had died, and based on my understanding, I believed the battery was the issue. I had purchased the battery from this shop about a year ago and was told it had a 3-year warranty, so I came in expecting to have the battery replaced under warranty. Instead, I was told there was nothing wrong with my battery. The situation then turned into an issue with my alternator. I was initially quoted $1,500 for a new alternator, then $1,200, and eventually told Randy's "homeboy" could do it for $500 cash. I told him I didn't have $500, and he asked, "What do you have?" He eventually agreed to $200 cash. When I came back for clarification, I was told I was getting a brand-new alternator. However, when I returned, the same alternator was still on my car. I was then told that the positive wire on the alternator had been fixed and the alternator had been cleaned, and that was what the $200 was for. I was given a $0 receipt for the warranty battery, but no itemized receipt explaining the $200 cash charge. I left extremely confused and feeling like I had been misled about what work was actually being done. I don't know a lot about cars, but customers deserve honesty, clear communication, and documentation of what they are paying for. I personally feel like I was taken advantage of. Be aware of Randy and make sure you get everything in writing before paying for additional work.

Always honest and punctual - customer oriented. We all want a trusted mechanic and I feel as tho I have found one. On my second visit I mentioned I was concerned about my brakes - I arrived expecting to replace and was told the brakes would be inspected. After a short wait I was told brakes are in good condition. I truly value not feeling like I am relentlessly being sold something! Cheers to these guys.

I've had a challenging issue with my air conditioning (which is a thing that's known to go wrong in my car) and they've been great at communicating with me how they're trying to diagnose it and trying different fixes. It's an old-style, no frills kind of shop. I appreciate that they know cars and get the job done. Their prices are fantastic, and they're always transparent with their pricing, offering options for lower cost when available. Recently, I took my car to the dealership to see if they could do a better job chasing my AC issue, and they let me know I had an oil leak that would cost $1200 to fix. Being the skeptical sort, I took it to Motormania and let them know exactly what the dealership said was wrong. Motorman let me know there was no current oil leak, that the oil leak the dealership had showed me was dried oil from a previous issue, and that my car was functioning perfectly. I trusted them before, but I obviously trust them even more now. Basically, I can't say enough good about the folks at Motormania and I will always take my VW there.

My car had been sprayed on the tail lights to make them look black. Although you can see the light perfectly, this was making it to where I would not pass inspection. I was bummed because I only have a couple days to renew my registration (my own fault for procrastinating.) i told them it was no problem and I'll happily wait for the oil change. A few minutes later, Brian came in and told me he was taking extra time to scrub off the paint! This is not an easy job nor is it in his job description to do so. I was beyond surprised to see he was going above and beyond to help me out. I was in and out faster than he had quoted even with the tail lights being scrubbed. The price couldn't be beat either. For a small family owned business, I wasn't expecting too much. But I won't be going anywhere else from now on for my car needs! I really hope this review helps anyone who's trying to decide where to go for their car in the austin area.

Was going to go to Hyundai but couldn't leave work early. Their next appt wasn't until the 20th. I called KK this morning and they were able to get me in. I thought I would have to drop it off and was prepared to be without a car. After the diagnostic they said the throttle body was dirty (even showed it to me) and explained that was what made my CE light come on. I loved their transparency throughout the process. I also opted for a coolant flush which I haven't done in all my 80k plus miles. Prices for work were still cheaper even before the 10 percent discount. The service was great and I was out in an hour or so! Thanks Kwik Kar for getting my car fixed and my weekend back! Yall always take care of me!

They have ample seating in their lobby, along with a fridge of water bottles and a restroom in a corner. They have window shades that block out sunlight so the lobby doesn't get too warm. I chatted with one of the service advisors about his recommendations on the better car makers, and was told to stay away from Hyundai/Kia, any hybrids, and any turbos, for various maintenance and longevity reasons. I appreciated his honesty and willingness to share that kind of information. After about an hour, my vehicle was was finished and I was called to the counter. They charged me $11.50 for the emissions inspection, which is the posted rate on the DPS website. Great customer service, friendly advisors, and a comfortable waiting area. I had a great experience here.

This shop has been in business for decades, and I was introduced to it by a friend whose family has also been using their services for many years. They are always efficient and reliable. This is exactly the kind of auto shop you want to go to: no flashy building, no fancy talk, just honest work and good service. I can't recommend them enough. Honestly, I'm surprised to find a business like this still around in Austin. It feels like a true hidden gem, and maybe, just maybe, a little glimpse of what Austin used to be.
