Dropped by at 3:30 on a Friday, and was out 4:00. With no appointment, mind you. Doesn't get much better than that. Cost me about $57.

Second time here and it's been a breeze both times. Efficient, straightforward, took less than 20 minutes! Well done. I'll be back!

Hidden Gem! Went here not for auto repair needs. Please skip this review, if you are looking for a…read morereview for that. I'm reviewing the "hidden" Fishing Supply store on the second level. It's not really hidden, I snapped a picture of the teeny tiny sign outside the auto shop. Jim, i think he is the J in J & D Auto Repair was friendly and helpful getting the Beau set up with new reels, hooks and tackle to fish. He answered questions in regards to the differences to fish off the pier as well as the beach. Lots of varieties and stock for your local fishing needs, some things even looked like for boat fishing - i'm no expert so please don't quote me on that HA! Figured I give this local shop a review in times of COVID may not have much auto repair traffic that may stumble across this. COVID Review: Jim was wearing a mask, hand sanitizer was provided at the register as well as a screen/shield. Social distancing is enforced and Jim points you around the store so that you can browser without him hoovering too closely. Thank you Jim! We will be back.

got a smog check here recently, had some weird issues with my car that could have made it fail smog…read moreso they very kindly did a courtesy check instead of doing the smog and failing me and still making me pay. super friendly service, star certified which is exactly what I needed, a little costly but that's just how it is nowadays so I don't blame them for that. everything was done super quick and they were super transparent about what was needed. definitely will be coming back in the future for all my service needs.

Say... You coax your…read moreboyfriend's perfectly maintained '85 DIESEL Mercedes Station wagon from his father's house while in California on holiday. Then... You drive said dealership-maintained car to your hometown where your A.D.D. kicks in and you fill the afore mentioned DIESEL car up with *wait for it* UNLEADED gas. Somehow through the shame...the horror...the hiccup cries and desperate refrains of, "My boyfriend is soooo gonna break up with me" I got the car towed to Greg Bean Auto. A few facts about Greg Bean Auto 1. Greg Bean stayed in constant communication with myself and my boyfriend (3000 miles away) 2. Greg Bean can fly (this has not been confirmed) 3. Greg Bean et al. actually fixed the car in less than a day and fixed the car's power locks too; a job that had been estimated at $900 at the S.F. Mercedes dealership (no lie). He gave us an amazing deal. 4. Greg Bean is a huge proponent of Bio-diesel. Which I don't know much about, but I know all the kids are talking about it so it must be good. 5. Greg Bean doesn't advertise. We happened to find a glowing review on Yelp. G.B. is clearly in it for love of the game and that's pretty cool. In summation- if Greg Bean tells you to drink the Kool-Aide, you should.

I had found Greg on Yelp with glowing reviews, so I decided to try him out…read more Part 1: I have a 02 Mitsubishi Lancer (not EVO) and it had a check engine light on. My friend had checked out the car and said it was a O2 sensor, which I replaced but it was still on. So I went to Greg's for some professional help (on Halloween no less). He was very friendly, did a free scan, and reset my engine light because the read-out was indeed just that. Problem solved! I was able to return the other O2 sensor and save $60! What a Treat! Thanks! :D I wanted to give him 5 stars but experienced a disheartening part 2. Part 2: I needed an oil change (I forgot about it the first time I visited) and I figured I'd give my business to Greg since he's made a great impression on me the first time. Unfortunately it ended up taking way too long and costing quite a premium. I scheduled for a 10:30am appointment and arrived there on the dot. All the car lifts were taken when I arrived and it took until around 11:15 before getting to my car onto the lift. I was called at 11:45 to take a look at the car in which recommendations were given for timing and drive belt replacements. Greg said he will check on the factory recommended replacement times and pricing details, but it seems the computer was pre-occupied with another task. Then a complicated personal phone call came in and I waited again for him to get back to me. I am a very patient guy and always give people the benefit of the doubt, thinking their day is just unusually busy, but it was 12:15pm and I felt I couldn't wait anymore. I found his son Greg Jr. and had him look things up for me. Shortly after, Greg Sr. finished the call and was able to ring me up so I can get going. The price he was going to ring me up for was $102! 0.0!! Needless to say, I was stunned! Now, I have to admit I never asked for a price quote ahead of time, but I figured an oil change could only cost so much! Boy was I wrong! It's especially staggering since I just moved from San Jose and was used to $20-40 oil changes. He told me they charge 1/2 hour minimum labor (based on $100 per hour) and that he used Mobil oil and a Bosch filter - I found it retails total $27 locally, which translates to about $70 for labor. In the end he lowered it to $76 as a first time service. Greg Jr came and gave me the quote for the belts, I paid and left at 12:30pm, still a bit dazed. I felt kind of sick afterwards. Now that I think about it, I never did sign anything allowing for work on the car beforehand. In retrospect, I should have definitely asked for an estimate ahead of time (perhaps one should have been provided regardless?) and spoken up much sooner regardless of their workload. Lastly, I am not saying Greg is not good at what he does, I'm sure he knows his stuff inside and out and has a great attitude, but for maintenance duties there are other places that are willing to do the work faster and more professionally for a lot less.
