Austin's Best Mechanic's.
My car is my baby and I love taking it to a place where the people all know what's going on and what they're all talking about. Dave's is such a place. Everyone here is super freaking nice and they
all are genuinely interested in you and your automobile. They don't give you a run around, they don't give you long winded "recommendations" they just wrench on your car, tell you what's wrong (should there be something wrong) and tell you how they'll fix it. Truly hassle free mechanic.
Best part is they service Subarus and more. I will take my Subie no where else!…
Well Done!! Above and Beyond!. Wow! This place is awesome. I brought my car in for noise's in the rear end, was told by another shop (ok Sears) that I needed shocks and rear differential service. The noise was only above 50 mph an hour so wasn't sure if it was true or not. Went to Dave's the Service Manager took it for a ride, came back in, told a technician to put in on a lift. Found out my rear tires where scalloped. All I needed was rear tires, shocks where ok, and they did the differential service for me. I am so glad to have Dave's. I tell everyone I know and all my co-workers to go to Dave's. They even have taxi coupons for someone that gives you a ride to drop off the car or for you to pick it up. How cool is that!…
WATCH OUT!!.
As mechanics these guys might be OK, but really watch out for their pricing. For me they charged 100$ (2hrs) for an initial diagnosis. That would be OK if I had not told them exactly what was wrong
with the car to begin with when I dropped it off. So they spent 2 hrs finding out what I told them for free. On top of that, they charge me with a "Level 1 drivability test and inspection" which is 3hrs or 150$. So I am out 250$ before any real work is done. They find two problems (one of which was dubious). Both of those apparently took 4hrs each, or 400$ in labor to fix. One of those was to change a fuel filter which should not take a good mechanic 4 hours. I leave one star since there is actually a chance that my car is actually fixed, which would be nice. Watch out!
PS, I strongly suspect many/most of these 5star reviews are fake. Anyone who actually went there would mention the price, even if they are "in love with Dave's" or whatever.…
Great experience!. We have always had a great experience at Dave's and enjoy their loyalty program.
AMAZING!!. About two weeks ago, i went to Dave's to get my state inspection and oil changed. When i asked how long it would take to do everything, my estimate was an hour. i got a phone call in about half that time, with it finished. Very reasonably priced. Everyone at Dave's was friendly, and supportive and explanitory of what needed to be done. I have no idea how cars work, nor when to get the oil changed. I'm so glad i took my car to Dave's. i will DEFINATELY be back! Thanks Dave's!…
