Engine out.
S N.

It's about time I post this review. If I could rate six stars, I would. My 1992 Lexus ES300 was in the care of Tony and Simon for several months last year, and it was a big job. I dropped it off with the assumption that it had a blown head gasket and just needed new heads, but it actually ended up needing an entirely new engine and transmission once they opened everything up and saw how bad it was (every crevice of the engine was gummed up). I sourced both a replacement engine and transmission and had them rebuild and install it for me, along with a few other minor things that needed attention. Tony and Simon are absolute professionals with a level of patience and kindness I have almost never seen before in mechanics. They are not salesmen; they are actual mechanics with total integrity and pride in their work. They never hustled me for money, they never rushed me, they never tried to upsell or charge me more for anything, and they kept my car parked inside the whole time. They actually gave me an amazing deal on the labor too, and they never even asked me to post this review (I just decided to by myself). My car has been running like a dream, and it's still under their warranty so I can rest assured it'll be fine. I ended up moving down to SoCal, but I kind of wish I hadn't so I could come back here!

I have a strong belief that 90s-2000s era toyotas and lexus are by far some of the best vehicles not just of their time, but ever made. Ever. That being said, longevity still requires maintenance, and that is where the guys at SLT auto repair come in! They are my go to for all my big service jobs on my 2jz, 3uz, 2tr, etc that I can't do myself on my driveway. Pricing is always upfront, straightforward, and if theres any hidden problems along the way they always reach out with an update. Its hard to find a lawyer/doctor you trust these days. It's even harder to find a mechanic you trust. Look no further, these guys are the ones! I sometimes limp or tow my vehicles all the way from morgan hill if needed, I refuse to take my lexus sc, ls, and tacoma anywhere else!

Recently had timing belt and water pump service completed with perfection. Unfortunately my alternator died recently and had them fix that too. They always take great care of my cars without a doubt. Thanks again!

The TL;DR - SLT Auto Repair would have tried installing an incompatible replacement transmission into my car, except they forgot to actually order the part in the first place, and didn't realize it until I showed up for our appointment. The full story - I have a 2017 Toyota Sienna that needed its transmission replaced. SLT Auto said they had found a used one for a reasonable price, we ordered it and made an appointment to bring the car in a couple of weeks later. The afternoon before, I called to confirm that we were still on schedule only to be told (by Tony, I think) that the transmission had been dropped and dented and could not be used anymore. It would have been nice to have been told this as soon as it happened, not just because I happened to call in. They said they would look around for replacements and call me back. No one did, until I called back the following Friday to check. This time I spoke to Simon, who said they had another transmission with about the same mileage available, and they could order it the next day and have it ready to install Tuesday AM (they are closed Monday). I found it improbable that their vendor would have two used transmissions available when from shopping around, they seemed hard to come by. But I went ahead and said okay, let's do this Tuesday morning, but please do call me if the transmission does not come in. Tuesday morning at opening I am standing in line, but when I talk to Tony he seems surprised that I am there. The transmission is NOT there, but of course no one told me. They call the vendor, I don't know if it's to see why it hasn't arrived or to try to order it in the first place, but after some discussion they come back and say wait, this transmission is not compatible with my model of Sienna. What a complete, utter waste of time and money. After the initial transmission snafu I should have just walked away, now at least I've learned my lesson to avoid SLT auto at all costs.

Staff doesn't put back your screws in the bottom of car. Complete dust pan almost fell off on freeway causing car accident.

Very friendly staff. Paid for 2 oil changes. Last one the guy forgot to put my screws back on under the car after the oil change. The bottom of my car car started scraping on the bottom of the floor. Almost got into car accident on freeway. I wonder what this place did with my screws, probably sold them for a few cents... at my cars expense

I will not go to ANY Toyota or Lexus mechanic other than SLT. They are honest, not pushy, and have fair prices.

They seem…read morefairly new but they provide great service and I believe an introductory offer for a full diagnosis of your vehicle when you take it in. The process was pretty quick and the shop was very responsive and even though I did not elect to get additional work done, (I can do a lot of the regular maintenance stuff myself, really just wanted the diagnostic) I appreciated the constant updates on the work getting done, making it a very "stress-free" experience. Overall worth a visit as a first time customer and I'll be back for regular oil changes.

I went back to the shop 3 times over the course of ~9 months, each time discovering some issues and replacing the pad/disk (this is where i felt good about the shop, everyone welcomed me back and did the diagnose and replacement for free). I end up relacing the two front pad/disk with another brand (zimmerman? that's what i heard) and resolved all issues. Maybe I just got unlucky, but I have to leave my honest and true experience which exhausts me over the last year (imagine every time you back out of your garage and hearing this "click" sound from your brake system, with a baby in a car. You natually worries about your safety).

This place is actually part of the VW Dealership through some type of partnership. You check in/drop-off at their office next to the VW car lot. In my case, my car was driven over to the VW Dealership service area for the actual smog. 2. Prices were incredibly reasonable. $40 out the door for a smog! Total time was about an hour (in and out) 3. It is best to call ahead just to make sure someone is ready for you at the front desk. If they are not expecting you, the check-in office might be empty and you'll need to call them at the phone number listed on the door. 4. My car got washed after the smog check. I'm pretty sure this was a mistake, but WOW - what an unexpected surprise.

They are not a star certified smog check location, so if that is required on your renewal , then you can't go here. Fortunately, my car did not require that. Everyone was very friendly and respectful. The waiting areas were nice and comfortable. If you're not in a rush, this place is great. I have had other smog checks where I'm in and out in 15 minutes. This one is as closer to an hour. They did have the best price at $29.95 + $8.25 for a total of thirty-eight dollars and twenty cents.
