Excellent service! Van is patient and incredibly helpful. He didn’t push me to get new parts and saved me money all together. I will come back to him in the future!

They were very helpful, courteous, timely and reasonable. I had a broken outside mirror and they installed it for me for a reasonable rate. Definitely coming back for oil changes, tire rotation, and general car maintenance.

I echo what others have said about Van and his service. I have been taking my car here for oil changes and have always found Van honest and efficient. He suggested that I replace my air filters but never put any pressure on me and, when I eventually did it, the price was good and service fast.

my nissan was subcontracted here for front end alignment work.
before the alignment, car was pulling to one side, afterwards no more.
no more surprises on the freeway.

Just incredible. Went in for wheel balance and 20 min. later both front wheels done, only $ 20! Van was quick, precise, and mindful about further questions I asked. Will definitely come back soon for more overhaul and maintainence.

Got an oil change here, and not only was Van fast, he alerted me to a leaking problem without pressuring me into pursuing it. The leak was easily explained by my overfilling the coolant reservoir, which was leaking out a vent hose as google and some other mechanics have faithfully told me.
The area is a little dodgy, prostitutes hover and an angry man in a Buick hounded Van aggressively about a quote he gave him for fixing the car. There were no less than two taco trucks across the street that I could have feasted at but decided to stay.
I really appreciate it when mechanics give you news, but not quotes. Although Van alerted me to a problem, it was easily explained. There you go.

Bringing your car here for maintenance is probably the best decision you’ll ever make for your beloved vehicle. Very honest and efficient — Van’s a great guy!

My family and I have been coming to Van’s for years. Van is the only mechanic I know that told me that «it doesn’t need to be done, you’re wasting money, just change the oil and check the tires.» Is that honesty or what? The shop is not in the best part of Oakland and it’s probably not the most comfortable place to wait for your car. So drop off your car, go have lunch, and Van will take good care of you. Of course, you could pay double or triple at the car dealer, but you’ll get a comfortable waiting area, maybe a carwash, and maybe wifi. I rather go to Van’s and have a nice lunch nearby i.e. Alameda or new/​old chinatown with the money I saved by going to Vans.

Good place unfortunately they no longer do smog checks. However they can perform most other jobs with ease. Prices are reasonable. Van himself is there everyday almost and you’ll see him wrenching on customer cars.

I work right next to this place and needed a smog check. They had the CHEAPEST deal this side of E14 and quick too! I came in, dropped off my car, ate my lunch in their waiting area and before I knew it, they were done. It was hella fast! I will definitely come here again if I need a smog check…
