    Evap hose
    Nate N.

    I went in today and the guy was very fast, I'll give him that. The only concern i have is the knowledge the technician has. My car has been stock since 2001 and had to replace the catalytic converter (was done prior to me buying it). He didn't pass it because it was rusty. He also said i had defective/wrong hoses. One hose was a vacuum hose, on the hose it says windshield wash/vacuum hose. He only pointed at the windshield part and said it was wrong. IT WAS THERE SINCE I GOT IT AND IS FACTORY! Another one was a small crack at the end of the evap hose. He said that was defective. End of day I have not touched it since I bought it in 2019 and it has passed smog every time since then.

    The older gentleman with glasses (JC I think?) was so kind and reassured me that he'll take care of what I needed done.

Just clear, honest, data-backed recommendations on what needs to be handled now and what can wait. I've trusted them with my vehicles for years, and they've been consistently professional, transparent, and fair every single time. Let's be honest--finding a mechanic you can truly trust is rare. These guys are the exception. If you want integrity, clarity, and top-level service, this is the place.

Not only are they friendly, efficient & more cost effective than the dealerships, the level of care & service they provide is TOP NOTCH! Intune Motors is located near The District at Tustin Legacy, on Construction Circle. They offer a wide range of automotive services ~ ranging from oil changes, engine repairs, tune-ups, brakes, diagnostics, mechanical repairs, fluid services, and also factory internal services & aftermarket upgrades. They specialize in European vehicles and employ ASE-Certified Master Technicians, so you know you are in good hands. Intune Motors also offers a warranty on parts and services. My family has taken my son's 2015 Lexus IS 250 here for repair and most recently, my mom's 2016 BMW X5. I had called Thuc on a weekday, close to closing because my mom's SUV was leaking oil and he was kind enough to fit us in that day. His level of concern for her safety (similar to how he'd treat his own mom) really touched us. In the end, my mom had to leave her car there for a few days for repair and once completed, Thuc even followed-up with us (a few days later) to ensure no further problems occurred & no more oil leaks. From my personal experience, a lot of independent service places & even dealerships often just do the service, take your money and send you home without batting another eye..but not here! That shows the commitment and dedication to developing long-term relationships with each of their clients by practicing good, honest principles daily. This definitely creates trust & loyalty for ever-lasting customer satisfaction & client comeback. I can't rave enough about Thuc & his shop and will surely take our cars back in the future & recommend to all our friends & family, when needed!!!

    It's rare to find kind people who truly care about clients in this industry. It's surprising to…read morecome across people like Arnold and Arnaulfo. Their prices are the most fair in the area, but the quality, the skill, the knowledge that were provided was TOP NOTCH. Very honest and knows alot about cars. They deserve your business and referrals. I called them and they were able to squeeze us in after I told him we had an urgent case and needed their help. He found more issues that other shops probably wouldnt have caught. Auto scientists with MAD SKILLS. Arnold educated and guided me and we were able to make the best and right decision on the vehicle. Thanks man!

    TRUSTWORTHY. Highly skilled. Knowledgeable. Kind. That's exactly how I would describe Arnold and…read morehis father. If you need a pre-purchase inspection or any auto repair, whether it be european, american, japanese made, etc, and EVs, take your car here and don't think twice. We reached out to Arnold for a pre-purchase inspection. While six other places quoted us $250-$350 for a "comprehensive" inspection, we paid Arnold $100, which was a STEAL for what he did, even more than what the others promised. He spent at least two hours thoroughly checking the vehicle, test driving it and walking us through every detail so we truly understood its condition. We were looking at buying an Audi Q4 e-tron that had a damage report. A reputable dealership told us it was "minor" and offered to take it to the mechanic for our peace of mind. After browsing Yelp and reading the amazing reviews, we decided to come here instead and I'm so glad we did. I had already done my due diligence and familiarized myself with the vehicle and potential issues. I asked Arnold very specific, technical questions that I already knew the answers to. He answered every single one with clarity and confidence and everything I was expecting to hear. My husband stayed the entire time, and Arnold patiently explained everything while inspecting the car. You can tell he was that kid that made the auto shop his playground growing up. He's passionate, meticulous, and GENUINELY cares. What impressed me most is that Arnold will never pressure you. He won't tell you "don't buy it," but he will clearly explain what could go wrong and what it might cost to fix. When I pressed him for his honest opinion, he said he personally wouldn't buy it at the listed price but if we negotiated it lower, then it might be worth considering. That level of honesty is RARE. They are your small local auto shop but I would choose them over any flashy, grandiose service center any day. Their integrity and transparency make them stand out. Thank you so much, Arnold and your dad, for the amazing service. We ended up just buying a Tesla!
