I have been a regular here for a few years. The owner is polite, professional, and goes above and beyond for the customer. I always have a great experience when I come and trust him with my car completley. I definitely recommend bringing your car here for great and speedy service. read more

It's always a leap of faith to trust someone with your car. A relationship with a trusted mechanic is sacred and scarce in a town that's always trying to squeeze every dollar from their client. I never got that feeling when I brought my car in to this random shop. At first I confused it with a car washing place but they share the space. I met with Paul the head mechanic and told him that I wanted a second opinion on some engine troubles. I'd say I'm a car guy but in reality I'm a car admirer. When Paul saw the S2000 I knew he was a car guy. Another shop quoted me a diagnostic fee and told me that there was a crack in the engine somewhere with details I never really understood. Where did the leak come from after the pressure test? Where is the crack? All things I got vague answers for but their solution was simple. Get another engine for $5000. Traumatized and depressed I opted for a second opinion and I'm glad I did. Not only did Paul put me at ease he also found the leak that was causing the engine issue. A small hose leaking coolant to cause the white smoke. I'm very appreciative that shops like this still exist and they deserve our support. The diagnostic fee was $80 compared to the $185 I paid at another shop Long story short do some research, get a second opinion and come support shops like these. read more

They are friendly and good quick service! I had oil change at here and guy finished my oil change pretty quick, I could make it next appointment. I was very happy their service! I'll definitely recommend it. I will be back for car wash next time! read more

everytime i've been here i've left impressed at how efficient the service is. i was recommended by a coworker to get my inspection done here because they're super fast. i've done a few oil changes here as well because again they're speedy. no frills simple auto shop, but the guy is friendly enough and i don't feel like they're charging me an arm and a leg or taking advantage of me for being a woman who doesn't know cars. big ups for efficiency. for an oil change and inspection i was out of there in under 30 minutes. read more

I came here for my annual car inspection. They were quick to greet me and thankfully got me right in. Service was fast and efficient but admittedly this is an inspection, not brakes or other longer repairs. Overall, I was pleased with place and team. Even though the wait area is dated, it was comfortable with cold A/C. They are also very convenient to my home, which is a plus. read more

Silber Auto Service - Work bays - Auto Repair Near Me - Houston, Texas

See all

I took my car in for inspection twice now and have always had a good experience. Never felt like I was hassled into making any decisions or that they are upselling. I would definitely recommend this business! read more

**NOTICE -- This shop is under new ownership as of a year ago or so** They no longer do most of the services listed. Looks like only oil changes. Nobody available to perform a simple oil change during peak business hours (Saturday, 2:15pm) and didn't have a common oil weight (0w30 in stock at Walmart next door and was readily available at another shop). I visited Friday and he didn't have 0w30, asked me to come back Saturday. I came back Saturday but he was not there and nobody was there to service the car, even though the shop was "open." Tried to give my business twice, just to waste my time. I recommend going to a professional shop that will have the proper parts and will treat you right. Edit: Dropped from 2 stars to 1 because the owner is obviously also dishonest. I was never asked to set an appointment, just "come back tomorrow." So disappointed in this mom and pop shop. Hopefully you won't waste your time on this place like I did. read more

It is owned by two brothers. I like to do business with local small business owners. They've inspected my car for several years & completed them in A timely manner. They recently changed my oil in a very short period of time without an appointment. I would have been at the dealership for sometimes several hours. They also checked other fluids. Etc. They always seem to be busy when I drive by. I highly recommend you consider using them. read more

Silber Auto Service is my new go to for oil change, car inspection, and any other car issues. Depending on the time and day, I'm sure they can get pretty busy, but they've always been really quick with me. Gene, the owner, seems a lot more honest with me than the other guys I was going to so I'll continue going here for any car issues. read more

Silber Auto Service - Auto Repair Near Me - Houston, Texas

First experience with John and Paul. John evaluated a used car that I am considering purchasing and gave me an honest and fair opinion. My father has been coming to this shop since they took ownership, even waited eagerly for them to open! I highly recommend Silber Auto Repair. The French bulldogs don't hurt either! read more

Silber Auto Service - I mean... - Auto Repair Near Me - Houston, Texas

I went to a different place in the heights to get an oil change and they made some recommendations - I got a second opinion here bc my friend referred me to them and they were super honest and helpful and saved me money. Paul is so great and I highly recommend them. Definitely did not try to take advantage of me as a girl and I really appreciate it! read more

Just WOW. First time bringing my car here and I'll never go anywhere else. They worked and communicated as a team SO well that I was out of there with my oil changed and Inspection in literally under 20 minutes. Incredible service, I drove away shocked, in a good way. Thanks guys! read more

For a quick drive out of the loop, you can get your oil change pretty much right away from my experience. I have also gotten a tire fixed here and didn't have to wait for hours like at discount tire. I'm pretty sure at I have never had to wait and they usually are done quickly. It's a small business and sometimes a one man show, but it's still pretty efficient. Also, if there is a wait, and you have some time to kill, you can drop your car off and walk across the street to watch a movie, go shopping or people watching at Walmart. read more

Would definitely recommend. My experience has been positive and appreciate the honesty. Will be returning! Thank again !!!

Great neighborhood place! I get my cars inspected here every year. The owner is awesome!

Recently, I was going to eat across the street so I decided to drop my car off for a quick oil change. They did a fast job, by the time I was done eating the oil change was done. No need to make appointments, walk ins are welcome. They added air to my tires too. read more

After getting yanked around at John's Auto Service (by the new owners) on Wirt, I decided to come here for some issues my 2001 Corolla was having. Gene is a pleasant if slightly cantankerous older Russian gentleman, but he sure knows his way around vehicles. I've been here multiple times, and he's always communicated clearly about how long the service will take, and what I can expect to pay. His hourly rate for labor is very reasonable, and he goes out of his way to keep repair costs down. The place can get busy (especially on weekends), so if you need something fast like an oil change, you might be better off going somewhere else. That being said, I highly recommend Gene if you're looking for a quality mechanic at a reasonable price. He takes his work and his business seriously (in a good way!). read more

Can't recommend this place enough. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. Most oil change places try to talk you into things you don't need, not here! Paul took great care of me! I was in and out of there in no time. If you're looking for an honest, reliable and affordable oil change or inspection, this is your place!!! Support your local businesses!!! read more

This place is super affordable, they're fast, and very nice! I was new to the area and I'm glad I found a super convenient spot. I go here for my oil changes and inspections read more

Outstanding and fair prices. Will be going here for all of my car maintenance! Oil Change and Brake change here so far.

The worst place I have ever been to.Called and Booked an appointment for my brakes to be changed. Went to the appointment and the guy there had no idea what I was talking about. waited for an hour and a half and then asked how long. I was told they were waiting on the part and will be another hour or two. The owner got there, told me to think smarter as these things take time. I told him how long i was there an had an appointment, he said yes that he did speak to me , (then started to shout at me) he left, came back with my car and told me to go somewhere else. Ive scene him yell at other customers, but didnt realize he does this on a regular. read more

I brought my Nissan in for a fix and had some of the worst customer experiences ever. Top 3 and I'm 40. This guy Paul who thinks he's some kinda big shot, needs to seek some help in simple customer relations. ZEEERRRROOOOOO. I asked him to offer me a discount on account of me "frequently" coming to the shop for repairs and what do I get? This is typically a yes or no answer but he seems already North of offended and replies "you only been here one time and you saying you been here lots before. I took it like ok, maybe this was a bad opening on a bad day, I need to just get the car fixed and go see to other matters. He fixes the car (He tells me 1 hr) and I get back to pick it up, it's ready which was a plus. I then asked him if he offered a warranty on his service which I find most places do. This sets him off again talking about what do I mean warranty? I explained to him that this is a very normal inquiry into any auto service. It's either a yes or a no. He then starts talking a whole bunch of things referring to how I had told him I had been here lots before ( I thought I had been there at least 2 times but don't recall). Then he says something about "we guys" or some generalization about conduct. I asked him to explain and he walks away arrogantly saying "No warranty for you!". Plain, just like that. I would advise those who run that shop to keep him but put him through some customer relations training because that's the last time I'm going there. read more

Really bad customers service!!! Don't waste your time going there, the guy didn't even greet me or said hi. He even gave me a bad face when I asked a question read more

These guys were awesome and fixed my car for a reasonable price in a short period of time. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

I found this place a few years ago when I moved into the area. Gene's great, he tells you like it is and then offers solutions to fix it in the fastest most cost effective way. He's taken good care of all my car repairs. I highly recommend! read more

We couldn't be more satisfied with the service we got from Silber Auto Service. Our truck started dying on us at stop lights and within one day Patrick was able to diagnose the problem (a faulty crankshaft sensor) and give us a fair estimate for the part and labor. He kept us updated on the work and didn't do anything without checking with us first. We couldn't be more satisfied with the service we received at such a fair price. read more

I've been using him (Gene) for years. The place is not fancy but Gene always does good work for me but most importantly he is totally honest. I know because the way I discovered him was by taking my car to him after another mechanic told me my car needed $700 worth or repairs... and that turned out to be total BS. Plus if it's a quick repair there is a great bakery across the street.... World Catering. read more

Had a nail in my tire and they plugged it for $14 on the spot. They could've taken advantage of me and sold me a new tire b/c I'm from nyc and don't know anything about cars but they were really cool and just fixed me up for a small fee. Didn't take credit cards which is weird but nice people :) read more

Had a hole in my tire. They fixed it 5 mins for a real good price. First time here and will be coming back for future car services.

I've been doing my oil changes and inspections at this place for several years since they're in my neighborhood. After I spent upwards of $1500 at the VW dealer in repairs my check engine kept coming up. When I was up for an oil change I took it to Silber Auto and they asked me whether I wanted them to look at it. They had the faulty sensors repaired in less than a day for little over $200 and a year later the car is running without a problem. Highly recommended for car maintenance and inspection work! read more

I was in and out of there in 15 minutes for a state inspection. Quick service! Btw, there's a $30 minimum for credit charges.

So nice and fast. Needed oil change and inspection. Gene found a hole in my washer fluid hose and repaired it for me. So convenient, fast and friendly. Definitely will be back! read more

If you live in the neighborhood, this is as good of a neighborhood auto mechanic as you could hope to find. Prompt, reasonably priced and personable in an old fart kind of way. Gene comes across as cantankerous but it's not hard to make him smile and he becomes very friendly. I appreciate that he not only did a good job quickly and cheaply, he explained the issues to me as well. read more

I went to this mechanic once upon moving to Texas for the state inspection. I will never go there again. I received some of the worst customer service I have ever received, in any industry. The mechanic did not say hello and was dismissive and rude. Their lack of friendliness pushed me away from them, no matter the quality of work. Never again! read more

This is a great auto shop! Gene, the shop owner and mechanic, is very good at his job, extremely knowledgeable, and very friendly.

We needed some brake, tire rotation and oil filter change. Also needed bumper repair. We were passing by and saw this shop, took our car. Gene was extremely knowledgeable, kind and reasonable. He told us where to go for bumper. After that was done we came back to him and now my car runs like new. My last service at dealership did not make such profound diy. I am so glad I found this gem of the shop. Thank you Gene. read more

Went in for an oil change and inspection, service was quick I was there for less than 20 minutes! Then later when I got home realized the guy had also fixed my undercarriage that was falling down without saying anything! I will be returning here read more

Very professional and nice! I have gone here to get my oil change and inspection done. Had no problems. Quick service!
