Olympia Autoworks is what every shop should be: Honest, fairly priced, transparent, responsive, and…read morefriendly! I brought in a car that I purchased recently with unknown service history. Their complimentary multi point inspection with pictures (free with paid oil change) gave me insight into the health and status of fluids, ball joints, suspension, and general condition of the car. This level of transparency is amazing, because I've definitely been to OTHER shops that would have told me all of the fluids need to be replaced without any proof. I highly recommend Olympia Autoworks for your service needs!

I asked them many times to let me know what work was needed and how much it would cost, with a…read morebreakdown, in writing, of parts and labor, before they started any work. They assured me that they would provide this info before doing any work and that the assessment would not cost me anything. Instead, over a week after bringing in the car, they completed the work without telling what work would be done, without notifying me how much anything would cost, and it cost hundreds of dollars. No notice or breakdown of parts and labor as promised. The techs end their shifts around 3 and the person who answered the phones and called to let me know the car was ready could not tell me what work was done, why it was done, nothing. If you opt to work with this garage, get everything in writing up front and in person and do not leave your car with them if you can help it.

Excellent customer service. All of the mechanics I saw as…read moreI waited in the shop were very friendly. I was way overdue for an oil change so that's what I had done today. Kodi was my mechanic and he was quick, friendly and professional. The cost was very similar, maybe less than what Toyota would have charged me and Mike's is only a 6 minute drive round trip from my home. I'll strongly recommend them to anyone.

I agreed and I had my vehicle sent in the next morning, It took them a few days to get a look at it, and they called me back up to let me know what they found. They claimed the vehicle had an issue with its Cat, and they couldn't finish the diagnostic until it was repaired. We started talking about pricing. They wanted 2x the Cats price for the cat, and double the price for labor. (the cat from the dealership would've costed $300 and $600 if you needed both) They wanted $5000 to do the job. $1200 for the parts and the rest labor. I questioned what exactly they were going to do to my car that would require over 15hours to do if they're only replacing the Cat, The guy dead a** told me they had to remove my entire engine and drain all its fluids just to replace it. (if that sounded funny to you too you have a braincell.) I declined the work, Told them I'm not comfortable paying $5k for a $1,800 job and I cant justify the engine drainage or removal for a Dry System, and that I'd be having my car removed from there lot and sent somewhere else. The guy working the Desk then told me that it would cost me $380 before it can be removed. $380? a $175 quote price (for a Full diagnostic they hadn't even completed) now jacked up to $380? asked them to explain and they said it took them over an hour to diagnose it and that's the labor fee for going over. I told them I was Quoted $175. the paperwork says $175 this was the agreed price and if there was a problem with the quote or agreed price they should have contacted me first and got my approval. I do no recommend you take your car here. They've already shown Super shady business practices and I'm So glad I went to a different mechanic who spotted the problem and Repaired it at a much more Fair Market Value.

Plenty of parts changers without experience. My advice get Greg back if you can.

After a bit of research I found Olympia Autoworks (previously called Foreign Autoworks) . They have extensive experience with European cars so I decided to schedule an appointment to get a diagnostic done to see how much the repair would cost. Making the appointment was quick and easy. After they took a look at the car I received a phone call explaining the issues they found and why the plan of action would be to fix them. They were very transparent in answering my questions and I did not feel pressured to go through with any of the services that may not have been necessary. The online system they use to approve and deny each individual fix is nice as well. They worked on the car for around 3-4 days and now it runs amazing! They have a better service warranty than the dealer as well. I will definitely be back for any other service needs.
