Lexology

This is the only place I trust to bring my Lexus other than to the Lexus Dealership. Great location, very fair & honest estimates and most importantly great work performed on my Lexus. If you’re in the area or outside, I definitely recommend Lexology for your Toyota or Lexus vehicle.

Mike and the crew at Lexology have consistently provided reliable, high quality service — with many other shops in the neighborhood, Lexology has always been my first go-​to. The front desk quickly checks you in and out, and goes above and beyond with special requests, such as arranging a loaner if you need one.

Ive been getting my IS250 serviced at Lexology for the last couple years and they’ve been great!
They do good work and they have great customer service.
Definitely beats getting overcharged at dealership service.

I love Lexology! I’ve gotten work from oil changes, new tires, to actual bumper paint and body work! It’s been about 2 years now since I’ve received service from the actual Lexus dealer, and that’s because of my pure satisfaction with Lexology! I’ll never forget the time I was under the impression my Lexus warranty had expired so I scheduled an appointment to get a headlight repair through Lexology. Being the honest and kind mechanic that Mike is, he placed me in touch with someone at the actual Lexus Santa Monica service center so that I could receive the service for free as stated under my warranty. I was highly impressed, realizing the average mechanic would have most likely gone ahead and done the work to gain a profit. I highly recommend this South Bay gem. :)

My Lexus has been needing service for some time now. And my rear tires were bald and showing the chords and my right-​rear suspension/​wheel needed an alignment. I made an appointment for Tuesday 1÷5÷16 in the morning. I read reviews on Unilocal about Lexology, was told by various people that it’s the best place to take your Lexus if you do not take it to the dealer. Now I know why. I booked an appointment and arrived to be greeting nicely. I gave the details of the my appointment, was told I would get a call by certain time with an update, left my key and took Über to work. I received a call and update and was walked through all the different things my vehicle needed and their cost.
As she went over the different needs of my vehicle and how not doing certain things would affect my vehicle overtime– at no point was I ever pressured to do something I did not want to have done to my vehicle.
With each need a maintenance item I wondered if my vehicle would be ready the same day and not only did they promised me it would but my vehicle ended up being ready to hours earlier.
When I arrived back to pick up my vehicle I was greeted nicely again and the paperwork was given to me with each thing explained to me.
This was a fine experience for something that most people dread for fear of being taken advantage of and charged unfairly. I would highly recommend this place for anyone that has a Lexus or Toyota or anything under the «Toyota» brand.
Great job Lexology. You have more than lived up to the hype.

First off: I am a self-​proclaimed car guy. I usually do work myself, but after moving to LA and not having adequate space, i needed a shop/​mechanic to do preventative maintenance. I bought a daily driver, 2001 Lexus IS300 with 178k miles on it. The 2JZ engine is world famous for its reliability and the car is a blast to drive at 220 HP stock, all I need right now. It was a 2^nd owner car and i bought it for a great price, knowing I would have to put some work into it. Well, guess what, it pretty much needed it all. And I mean everything; headgasket, timing belt, water pump, belts, fluid changes, brakes, ect… I went to Mike and he did a great job at a fair price.
I don’t like comparing prices to dealerships because quite frankly, i don’t go to stealerships. Mike’s price was right in the middle; you aren’t overpaying, but your also not paying your «backyard garage mechanic» price. So in the end It was defintely worth it. That plus the great service, quick turnaround, and peace of mind knowing the car would be taken car of was all i needed to be completely satisfied as a customer.
I waited over 8 months (12k miles) to write this review just to see how the car held up. Not a SINGLE drop or oil/​fluid comes from the car. I drive the CRAP out of it and it starts up purring everytime. I haul ass up to Big Bear, and then drive straight from LA to San Fran. Again, not a single strange noise or anything. I am positive the repairs Mike did extended the life of this car another 200k+.
Going back for an oil change this week, so see you guys soon. Thanks again!

I was just there today because my tire pressure light came on… I called the day before and showed up at 11am for my appt time. I was in and out in about 30 minutes both with the diagnosis and the repair. I’m happy that they could get it done quickly in time for a weekend trip.

Dropped in with a lot of problems on my Lexus ES350. Everyone was extremely friendly and the prices were just right. The facilities/​waiting area were small but clean. Coffee and magazines were provided. Quick and easy service. Thank you!

Lexology has been my mechanic since 2011 and I’ve never had a bad experience with them! They are reliable and they will take the time to explain any questions in detail. It can be costly because I have a Lexus IS Sporty model but it’s so much better than going to the dealer!
Its a cozy family business and I trust them. Mike and his wife, Mayda are the nicest people!

Brought my 2006 Scion XB in for it’s 120k mile oil change. They were very professional and explained everything that needed fixing outside of the oil change. The car feels like new after everything was finished!

We visited Lexology because my hubby’s truck had a dash light on. Our buddy recommended we come here because he brought his car to them, and he was happy with the service. I am always super skeptical when it comes to visiting car repair shops because I don’t trust them.
Of course, the crew at Lexology did find some other issues while our truck was in the shop, but they eased my concerns when they took the time to walk us through all the repairs. We really appreciated it, and after the repairs, we left the shop feeling confident our car was ready to hit the road.
We love our truck, and want to keep it as long as possible. I believe Lexology added some more time to the life of our truck. We also have a Honda SUV, and will take it to Lexology for repairs, as they said they work on Hondas as well.
Our dash light did come back on about a week after we took it home, but Lexology assured us they took care of any problems associated with the light, so we will drop by soon to have them take another look at it. Based on the work they did, I am confident the truck is fine. Hopefully it’s just the light malfunctioning. In short, I trust these guys, and will totally be back.

There really is no comparison to a dealership service center — why go through that overpriced hassle? It definitely doesn’t hurt that Lexology is a nice walk from home! They explain all work thoroughly, and leave it up to you what you want to have worked on, though all their suggestions are in the name of safety or to avoid bigger issues down the line, so why risk it?

These guys are awesome. Mike and the team are extremely helpful, upfront about costs, and honest when diagnosing your vehicle. If there’s service that needs to be added in, they make sure to explain the reason why. I’ve always felt like I was in great hands bringing my cars to Lexology. I’ve brought my Tacoma, Camry and Highlander here.

I am a new Toyota car owner, although my car is used, I took it to Lexology because I added too much transmission fluid and it needed to be drained and refilled. I asked the tech to check out all the fluid and other items. The technician took his time to explain everything I needed done to my vehicle, he explained that everything was not an emergency right now but just keep an eye on certain things. I received excellent customer service

Amazing service… went in ’11 and felt that I’d never visit a dealer again for service
Came back in ’15 with my SUV and they claimed over $ 1500 of repairs were required. Took it to a reputable mechanic a week later and left repairing only the rear breaks ($ 165). Who would really pay $ 65 to have their windshield wipers removed anyhow? Even in LA…

If you drive a Prius and can’t take it here you will miss out on some spectacular service and savings. It’s Michael birthday today, how many people know their mechanics birthday right? Well he knows when I got my car and has helped me get it through 382,667 miles, it helps to know the people your life depends on right? He has a team of talent that has built on excellence and honesty. One of my cars favorite places hope you can make it one of yours too.

This place is like being at a Lexus dealership without the long lines, pushy service reps, and ridiculous prices.
Mike, the owner if funny, caring, and above all honest!
This is THE place to bring your Lexus when you warranty runs out. I recommend this establishment even for people that live outside the South Bay Area. It’s that good!

The stellar reviews say it all. Mike, Alex and rest of team are the best in the business. Their attention to detail and thorough inspection of my Lexus RX350 saved me over $ 3,000+. Regional Lexus dealers had serviced my car over the last 4 years and either (1) failed to see the problem or (2) weren’t skilled enough to recognize. Mike and Alex found the issue within 5 minutes of visually inspecting my car.
I will NEVER have my Lexus serviced anywhere else, Period!

Trustworthy. On Time. Excellent Work.
Everything you want in car repair. Lexology keep’s both our 2001 LS430 and 2004 RX330 running great. One car has well over 200k and the other around 185k. Both cars have been in Lexology’s hands almost since they first opened which means we’re happy and our cars are as well :-)
M’s the bomb.

Did not have an appointment for oil change but they were able to squeeze me in and get out in less than an hour. Paid $ 75 for
Full synthetic oil change after coupon. Was recommended for rear brakes. Quoted $ 240 which was way cheaper than dealer or other independent.
Everyone was pleasant and efficient which matched what I read on Unilocal prior to coming in. As long as I keep getting coupons I will be back. (Or the free oil change they promise for an honest review)
