Brian Smog Check and Automotive INC

Brian is a wizard, a true master mechanic.
I have taken my cars to Brian for many years, and his knowledge never ceases to amaze me. I am pretty sharp mechanically, and can figure most things out on my own, however Brian is a nut when it comes to troubleshooting. He will find the problem, explain it to you, and fix it, and at a very reasonable cost. He is not just a smog shop, he is full blown repair shop.
The latest car I took in was a VW Jetta with a weird issue. The car was stuck in like a limp mode, it fell straight on it’s face when I accelerated, especially when I got into the turbo. I got online and went through every VW forum and read every post about people having the same issue, and my self diagnosis was the camshaft position sensor. I did all the self tests, and could not solve the issue. So, I look it to Brian whom took the time right away to run some tests. I watched his entire process of diagnostics, and it was pretty amazing. He thinks like Spock, and really uses the process of elimination to solve the mystery. After about an hour and a half he traced it all the way back to a missing fuse! Yes not a blown fuse a missing one! He popped in a fuse and the car was back to it’s normal speedy self. Now you ask, how did the fuse end up missing? I did some trade work with a friend who had done my heater core, and one of his guys pulled out the fuse and forgot to put it back in. Why I don’t know.
Brian is a very genuine honest mechanic, and he will fix your car and do it right without cutting any corners. I have sent many friend to him, who all have been very happy. Brian will tell you how it is, he doesn’t mince words, and he is a true professional.

I have been taking my cars to Brian for over 6 years on a regular basis. I have never had a mechanic better than him. He will tell you like it is, straight forward no bull. and very honest. If you don’t like facts about whats going on with your vehicle, then hes not your guy for the job.

I’ve been using Brian for well over 10 years.
He’s a straightforward guy.
He’s very honest with his pricing and he will tell you exactly what you need to know about your vehicle even if it bothers you.
He’s honest and straight to the point. he will not waste your time because he doesn’t want his time wasted either.
If you want to mechanic that will sugarcoat everything for you and just get you by, this isn’t the place for you.
But if you want your car to be fixed right and somebody that is straightforward and real, this is the place for you.

Use Brian on a regular basis, not only is he a great mechanic he is an honest and trust worthy person. Brian doesn’t gouge you and only fixes what needs fixing. My grandfather started using Brian years ago and Brian always took great care of him.

The owner is very disrespectful! I went to him for help about my car and he talked down to me and treated me rudely. Just because I am a lady doesn’t mean I’m stupid. Unfortunately I do everything on my own because I am independent and you treated me like I was stupid and told me that all I want is a sticker to put on my car. He also said that he knows I don’t want to pay a lot and that im pretty much wasting his time. He told me that I shouldn’t stay and wait on my car that it would be a bad idea. We’ll you just lost my business. I do not recommend this place.
