Convenient Auto Repair

As someone who works in the automotive industry closely to Boris& Mark. I would 100% recommend them to anyone!!!

Knowledgeable and friendly. I generally don’t write reviews but he deserves it.

My whole family has been coming here for years! These guys just always know what they’re doing and charge fair prices

I’ve been a customer of Convenient Auto Repair for over 8 years. Marc is excellent on Honda’s and VWs. I moved to Seattle and I miss the guys at CAR… they were the best. I recommend them any chance I get. My friends go there, even if they need to drive over 30 mins to get to Rockville. The shop is a bit hard to find at first, but you’ll be happy with the mechanics!

Mark and Boris have worked a few times lately on my Miata MX5 starter, shocks, brakes and always provided quick reliable fair and affordable service. Mark bends over backwards for ME!!! Need a tow… he gets Airpark Towing there in a jiffy!!! He is TOTALLY willing to work around your budget. I’m sorry to say I have not given him as much business as in the past but Mark is still there for me when needed.
I recently got an estimate from a so called highly regarded station in G Burg. Mark was like ‘what do you need all of that done? Stay away from them!’ he said.
Boris, who receives alot of overflow from Mark is very good, knowledgeable, friendly and NO ONE works harder. Even Saturdays for Boris.
Personality goes a long way and Mark definitely has it and recently he was awarded CHECKBOOK’s best local mechanic award in which he has a plaque displayed at the shop.

I bought my first Acura in 1988. Mark did a mailing to Acura owners in Gaithersburg, so I probably started going to him in 1989 or 1990.
I have received impeccable service from him and Boris ever since, now on my fourth Acura. The shop is hidden behind several large auto dealerships on RT 355, in Derwood, perhaps a mile south of Shady Grove Road.

I had an awesome experience with «Convenient Auto Repair». This was my first time here and I got the best service. I would have to say that Mark goes above and beyond to help you. If you work or live close by, He doesnt mind dropping/​picking you up. He is honest, knowledgeable and a very reliable mechanic. I would highly recommend this shop!

I’ve been going here long enough that I should write a review.
I’ve had bad experiences at dealers and other shops before, which lead me to be a very simple do it yourselfer for a little while.
However after moving to a place where this wouldn’t be possible anymore I needed to find a shop.
My relatives have been bringing their cars to Convenient for many years. And due to the bad experiences I had in the past, I kept on questioning my cousin about Convenient and she kept standing by them.
The location is pretty convenient. Where it’s right by some of the main bus lines that go up and down 355 and if you wanted to, you could walk to the metro from there. But like other people mentioned, Mark will do all he can to try to give you a ride. Be warned though, he drives like a maniac. I’m not sure if it’s something that all shops do, because I’ve seen other shops where the workers drive like maniacs too. Or maybe I’m just old now.
Sometimes I do wonder if they’re trying to upsell something, but they’ll take the time to show and explain the issue if there are any questions. They’ll also let you know if a repair can be put off.
I’ve actually crossed paths with Convenient Auto before when selling an old car, and a prospective buyer took it there to have it checked out. So I think the shop is well known in the area.
I can’t say much about prices. It’s a given that they’re cheaper than a dealer and their prices are within range of estimates on repairpal. There are other shops that may have cheaper prices for some things. However I still take my cars here for the quality of service that I know I’ll get and also because they know the history of my cars.
One of the things I wish I had known sooner is that they do all kinds of work. Including autobody and collision work. Mark is a great advocate for you with the insurance companies if needed.
One other note is that the shop next door, King Farm Auto, is run by Mark’s old mechanic Boris. And they often work together and pass business to each other. So if you don’t see one of them in one shop, just go next door for the same quality service.

Great, honest service and very reasonable prices. I first came here for a clutch repair for my infiniti G35. I called everywhere. I researched like mad. I found this business on consumers checkbook and it was rated through the roof. This was by far the best price, and marc, the owner gave me honest, sensible advice. I now drive 30 minutes to even just get an oil change because I just don’t trust anyone else with my car.
The best service for the best price. Mark really takes care of you. I would recommend Convenient Auto Repair to anyone.

I’ve been sending my Honda and now, Acura here to get serviced since 2001 and have NEVER been disappointed, over charged or lied to about my car. I’ve sent several others to this shop and they have been SUPER pleased with the work that was done.
The shop uses ORIGINAL Honda and/​or Acura parts for all services and you are NOT overcharged for your service.
Let’s put this into perspective, I drive from northern VA to get my car serviced here because I trust their work THAT much!
