Monnig’s Auto Service

I got the best customer service from Mark Monnig. Mark took very good care of my car and fixed what other mechanics could not do. I took my car in Friday morning and was done by Friday afternoon. Great, fast and affordable!

Monnigs Auto is having phone difficulty’s you can reach the shop at (714) 686‑8134
There address is still the same but they have moved a couple of doors down!

Mark and Robert are the BEST! Mark has been the family mechanic for over 20 years. We know we will get an honest, fair assessment and top-​quality parts and labor. We’ve had vehicles in due to emergency situations and the work is performed professionally, on time, getting us back on the road safely and as cost effective as possible. If my vehicle savvy husband doesn’t have the time, or the problem is beyond his expertise, Mark is our call. When anyone is looking for a mechanic, Mark is our only referral. They are ALWAYS busy, but always find the time.

There are two things you need in life, a good doctor and a trustworthy honest mechanic. If Mark went out of business I would be lost. I don’t know of any honest mechanics out there except Mark Monnig.
I work from my car and If my car doesn’t work, I miss work. I haven’t missed work due to mechanical problems in over 10 years since I had been introduced to Monnig’s Auto. When I need routine maintenance or an emergency I know Mark will get me in.
For example, I thought I had a catastrophic issue and it turned out to be a fouled spark plug. I’m sure a dealer or another chain shop would have more for thousands of bucks. I owe him many six packs of beer!

Mark and mark jr have been lifesavers! Was sent to them as a referral and from day one have been honest affordable and have accommodated my every need! If you need any work done to your car and want an honest family business to support look no further! Will send everyone I know to them as I don’t know what I would have done without them! Would give them 6 stars if I could! Look no further if your car needs any work!

I started to take my car to Mark in 2000 and loved the fact that he fixed my car and put it on payment plan. But about 2 years ago our cars would go into the shop for something and less than a month later it would be he same issue. Mark would «fix» it and not charge us anything and 2 months later it would happen again. Turns out the car my husband was using for work needed a new engine and mark was just swapping parts around and not fixing what was wrong. We ended up spending $ 1500 at another mechanic to have his errors fixed and have his engine rebuilt.
I had the breaks on my car done and they were knocking and grinding less than a month later and I took them in. His exact words were «I put ambulance breaks on it and they just make that noise.» I called a few other mechanics and they said there’s no such thing.
I’m not he only one that had problems, my mom took her cars to him and started to notice he was just putting bandaids on the booboo’s in her cars too.
If I could I would take back all those times my cars were there an go elsewhere. I would rather go to the dealer than to back to Monnigs Auto!

I almost don’t want to write this review, because if Mark gets any busier, it will be hard to get my car in! Seriously, though, car repair is one of those areas where it is hard to be sure if you are getting good service, but Mark is the real deal. He is a great guy, honest as the day is long, and very, very good at what he does.
He maintains both mine and my husband’s car. To understand, my husband’s car is over 17 years old. He is at the fix it or junk it stage… if it costs more to fix, just get a new car. So far, Mark has helped him to keep the car running well, with not too much cost.
My car is a 2001, and again, it runs well. He takes care of my car, and doesn’t make me feel stupid when I don’t know what is wrong with it. He goes above and beyond (my seatbelt was stuck… I stopped by and he unstuck it for me with silicone lubricant… the dealer would have charged. Mark didn’t) and I just know my cars are in good hands. His office isn’t much to look at, but honestly, if the cars are treated well, who cares? I also love that he is independent, and by paying him, we are taking care of his family and not some corporate executive back East. Hurray for the little guy!
Also, Mark likes chocolate, so bring him some!
If you want to be charged an arm and a leg, go to the dealer. If you want your car fixed, and fixed well, Mark is your guy.

Mark is awesome! My mom has taken her car to Mark for years and got me to become a fan. He’s honest and helpful, and it feels like he does everything he can to give you the best service without emptying your pockets. From simple oil changes to brakes to everything under the rainbow… he gets it done and he does it with a smile :) I don’t think the address is correct on here, he’s actually at 2349 W La Palma Ave # 101, Anaheim — off of Brookhurst & La Palma.

Mark is a great guy and an honest mechanic. He truly is willing to work with you and get you back on the road with as little damage to your pocketbook as possible. He charges hundreds less than some other places that shall not be named and will never try to make you take extras you don’t need! The only mechanic I really trust!

I just got my car back this morning and am pleased with the results so far. We’ve had all of our cars in to be serviced here now, and Mark always comes up with innovative and inexpensive solutions to problems that I think other mechanics would have wanted to rebuild the engine for.
