    Me in their lobby

    As a woman, sometime I feel like automotive shops take advantage of me by charging me more for services. I needed to get fluid change on my Volkswagen Golf. My husband is really into cars and said he would help me out, but also wanted me to learn. I didn't know where to go so I first went to the dealer. The quote for AWD service was $212 plus tax and fees. It is called the haldex service. My husband told me that dealerships are not always the best option. He said taught me that for VW they usually just drain and fill not clean the pump screen. I wanted another quote so I searched for european automotive shops and found Conaway. But they wanted $513 for the haldex service! That is when my husband stepped in to help me. He had enough and so he ordered the fluid from VW for the haldex and rear differensial and sent me to Top Spec. I guess they work on his mustang and he likes them. With part supply, it was less than $200 out the door. So I guess I will use my husband's shop since they are honest. But I don't like trying to find parking there. They keep too many cars and so it makes the parking lot stressful. But aside from that, they are awesome!

    Honest, Great Value, Accomodating, are some of the key traits of Top Spec Auto. We bring all of our cars to Chris! We trust that he is honest, and has proven his capabilities of doing great work that keeps us safe and our cars running. Each new car we buy we bring to him to check through because we trust he will point out all the concerning and good things Any check engine light or problem we have, Chris is trusted in servicing our vehicles or if there is a job that he can not the will recommend us to a partner who takes care of us. There is a lot of experience in this shop, when they call out and item, it will be one worth keeping an eye on or pursuing further. Example: We brought our Cadillac to Chris right when we bought it and he noticed that the previous owner used a cheaper version of the coil packs and let us know they were known to go out so we could see problems in the future. We were able to get about 4 months till our first one has started to go out and we are having Chris just go in and replace them all with the ones that he is suggesting!

    I think my ignition coil needs replacing and I'm bringing my car in today. I'm a little concerned on what the cost will be. Any help with that? It is a 2010 Hyundai Accent. Thank you.

    1 ignition coil replacement on your vehicle would run $135 parts and labor. We would have to confirm the issue, of course, first.

    Which vehicle do you have? The price depends on what type and how many need to be replaced.

    I got a bmw I need help?

    We would love to help you, what's the issue?

    I used to love to have Adrian work on my vehicle but since the new upgraded place its been one bad…read moreexperience after another. The last 4 times I went there I waited in the lobby for so many hours. If I had known it would be that long I would have went home. The last time was 5 and a half hours in the lobby! I tried to go home at hour 3 and was asked to stay (telling me it would be soon.) The prices have really gone up. He wouldn't charge me to look at it so I thought I was getting a good deal but with the high pricing it made up for it. Several hundred dollars cheaper at other places when I called around. I got an oil change here and I made an appointment for it. I waited 3 and a half hours in the lobby and it cost a little over 100$. I mentioned I was feeling the transmission slipping and was told they would take a look at it. At checkout they said nothing, I asked them about it and another 20 minutes later they came back and said it was fine maybe I could get a tune up soon. I brought it in again a few weeks later still with the transmission slipping. They said they found a sensor out and a few other things. I paid a little over 1000$ two separate times within 3 months. Each time I asked is it worth it, to fix it? What about the transmission? I got round about answers and was told fixing it was a good option. Now after putting almost 4000$ into it within a year my transmission needs to be replaced and I can't afford to fix it or get another vehicle! I don't have words for how I feel about that. I really trusted Adrian and so I trusted his crew and I feel like they really let me down and put me in a bad spot. I'm a single mom and I needed the honesty and care I had gotten from Adrian at the beginning but I guess things change.

For the vehicle safety inspection, I didn't have to make an appointment.  It was fine to do a walk-in. When I visited Emily's Garage, there was a customer who was pretty upset with the repairs and the cost.  I was able to hear what the customer had to go through but I would not comment on that as I have limited information. From my experience of getting my vehicle inspected, I was very surprised at how quickly they were able to complete the vehicle inspection.  It was done in less than 2 minutes, and I paid over $50 for that service.   For comparison, when I had my vehicle inspected at Les Schwab Tire Centers in Portland, they spent over 20 minutes to thoroughly inspect the vehicle and the cost for the inspection was only $20.   Will I re-visit Emily's Garage for the vehicle inspection?  Probably not but if the state requires me to get the vehicle inspection done, I will probably have no choice as there are not that many shops that offer the ASE-certified inspection.
