24th & Imperial Auto Repair

I was referred to this shop by autozone. My car transmission was having a terrible leak and got horribly expensive estimates at a lot of places. 24^th& Imperial saved my car !!! They fixed it ! It runs better than ever before and the price was super affordable !!! Junior was so friendly and helpful !!! I am as soooooo happy I found this place !!! Wish there were more stars to rate!!! Thank you sooooooooo much !!!

I have been taking my cars with Jr for the past 8 years; they are honest and will fix the problem to your vehicle at a low cost. They don’t add more hidden problems to your repairs, VERY HONEST! I have taken four of our vehicles for repairs, from motor replacement, transmission, clutch, etc and they have left my cars running great, running better at a very low cost. Example of how honest they are and why I will not go with anyone else, one time I needed an oil change and I went to a place called Sparks, I went there cause it was near my job and I was doing it on my lunch, they wanted to charge me $ 400.00 because they said the oil pan need replacement and the plug to the oil was missing, they told me if, I drove out of there with the vehicle, I would mess up the motor. I called Jr and told him what these mechanics had said and he told me, tell them to put a temporary plug «which only costs $ 2.00» and let them know it only costs $ 2.00 your mechanic told you, Jr reassure me nothing would happen to my car with the temporary plug. I took the car the next day to Jr and he showed me there was nothing wrong with the oil pan and he installed a new oil plug at $ 0 cost, only paid for the part which was $ 10.00. HONEST!!! I love my mechanic, Thank you Jr

Sent here by the guys at Auto Zone on Imperial to have my serpentine belt replaced. He said to talk to Jr. I’m never taking my vehicles to anyone else! Jr. ROCKS! Not only is he extremely knowledgeable and great at what he does, his pricing is so reasonable. He sends me to Auto Zone to buy the parts I need, and he puts them in right then and there. No waiting, no ridiculous over-​pricing, no crap. He knows his stuff, and fixes your vehicle in minutes. And if you can get him to smile, you get to enjoy his dimples too :)

I almost don’t want to reveal this diamond in the rough to the world because I don’t want them to raise their prices by the next time I need their services. However, the value and service I got from this place was so good I feel guilty not giving them a review so they can get some well deserved business. Not that they are hurting though — when I was waiting for my repairs they had a flurry of activity of people dropping off cars and getting quotes.
The place is a dirty sty, but hey this is an auto repair shop in the hood so what do you expect? My husband had some work done at this place a few times and when my brakes started squealing he told me to bring it here. I had actually gotten a quote from a «reputable» chain type place in point Loma who told me I needed new rotors and everything else replaced to the tune of $ 1000. This place told me that was B.S. and I just needed new brake pads. They told me to walk over to autozone a few doors down and purchase my choice of brakes and bring them back for installation. Installation was $ 40 even. What a steal of a deal. They did an awesome and honest job. I really like the idea of buying your own parts — no mark up and you know exactly what you are getting. It was 1 hour for the whole process.
I’m checking with this place first whenever I need car repairs. They were completely honest, fast, and friendly.
The only downside, was that they didn’t have any seats or anywhere to sit. I had to sit on the curb on the street and made some phone calls to pass the time. So, this place might not suit the faint hearted but for those who can deal with the hood, its a good deal.
