T & L Auto Service

Was able to get my 2002 Cadillac deville head gaskets fixed… Also had to rebuild the motor due to aluminum block using steal heads bolts. This was an expensive job but I love my car that much it was worth it to me… Installed 20 time serts, with all new fluids, gaskets, heads machined, top notch service, and once again my man Andy and his brother Truc are legit as they get. Thank you very much guys.

This place charged me $ 40 cash for the labor to change a brake light switch. What a big rip off. The task didn’t take the mechanic 10 minutes. This place is empty. That’s why you don’t see many customers come to this place.
This place accepts cash only,

Excellent quick service! I got my car aligned and battery changed for $ 40 total! Treated with respect and the job was done in less than 30 minutes. The mechanic explained everything to me and was super honest. He wouldn’t even take any tip afterwards! Would definitely come back and recommend family and friends to go there. THANK YOU!

The mechanic is very nice and very helpful. He gave me advice on the best oils to use for my car and was very informative. My car was making strange humming sounds so I came in. He was working on another car but still gave me his time, test drove my car and then fixed the problem with a little bit of power steering fluid. All within 20 mins or so of arriving and leaving. Very respectful and personable and in that short time span had gained my trust and loyalty with my vehicle.

$ 40 for an alignment? Crazy right?! I’ve never heard of such a thing before… As good as it gets, really.
Called in around 3 in the afternoon and they said they were able to take me within 30 minutes. We came in 30 minutes later, just as a car as leaving and he took us in right away. The alignment took no more than 20 minutes and we were sent on our way!
Actually, we had to go get cash for a local liquor store because it was CASH OR CHECK ONLY.

these guys are the best in the west.

Quick and efficient service. The owner is straight forward and very honest. If you haven’t found a auto repair shop yet then I strongly recommend giving this place a shot.

They don’t align lowered cars :(but if you have a regular car it’s hella cheap, only $ 40!

$ 40 for wheels alignment. No appointment. Done in 30 mins with a car before me! What can you say ?
It probably is one of the best quote around the area to be honest. Quick and fast service and friendly to the pocket.
The only cons is there is nothing in area to explore and walk around if you are doing any type of long hour services, but Andy usually is very fast so waiting is not a problem.
Also, they don’t accept cards! So bring your cash/​checks guys!

The best mechanic in San Jose! I’ve tried several places in San Jose, but they alll give you that «creepy sleazy» vibe. Gives you his honest opinion and advice to make the repairs as reasonable as possible. Most guys stetch the truth on what you need fixed, but not them

my go to mechanic, i always ask for his advice and he gives his honest opinion… i have been recommending all my friends and family for years. i take all my cars and my girlfriends

I have known about T@L for some time. I have a older Acura the factory alarm wouldn’t turn off I knew to get going again it was going to coast $$$$ I came back the car was fix the best thing about it all I knew it was going to get fix for under bill thanks T@L

Andy and his brother are absolutely on the most honest auto mechanics I have ever run across. Before I was recommended to them I took my Denali to another shop, they told me that the car needed both front pitman and idler arms. I took my car to Andy and within 3 minutes they found that I did not need any parts only a front end alignment. They performed the work and the car ran great. There prices are great and service even better. Stop looking and try them out, you will not be disappointed!
And no, I am not related or personal friends; they are just a great team of mechanics to work with.

great service good people, vietnamese speaking people will def help u in need

take your imports here… the coolest mechanic ever!!!

JD has given these guys a bad face on here.
I’ve come to T&L for YEARS for auto repair, in fact I’ve referred family and friends as well and we NEVER had issues.
I usually get the part and they throw it on and just charge me a very reasonable labor rate.
Not to mention they pull my engine codes for, ahem, free, and dont screw me in diagnosis fees.
I’ll keep going to these guys because its hard to find an auto shop
thats trustworthy.
I’ve had 16 vehicles myself including 4 motorcycles, I’ve worked on all of them, so knowing that, just imagine the kind of service I expect and the level of scrutiny I go to ANY auto shop with. Think about that.
Go see for yourself. Don’t always trust someone’s review, especially
a person who only went once and left his cat in the car.
These guys ROCK.

Major dissappointment. For those of you who are looking for a reliable body shop; well this place isn’t the one. I came in one afternoon with my fiancé hoping to get my car looked at since my engine light was on and one of their mechanics (not the owner I might add), some asian dude said no problem and to give him a couple hours to look at it. Thinking that everything was going to be OK, my fiancée and I decided to take his car and grab a bite to eat while we wait. Makes sense to kill some time right? Well I wish I hadn’t done that. Leaving my cat there was a damn mistake. My fiancée and I decided to head back to the auto body shop early after being gone for about an hour just to see whats going on. To my surprise my car wasn’t there and I was fuckin pissed. Not only the fact that I noticed my car missing for a good 20 minutes, I wasn’t even asked for permission to take my car out for a test drive. As we waited for quite some time I finally saw my car pull up back into the front of their shop. The guy came out of my car and said that in order to find out whats wrong with my car he would need to look into the problem more,(meaning that he would need more time with my vehicle and suggested I leave it overnight). I was a feeling quite hesistant since this is my only car and before I could even make a decision, the mechanic starts walking back to my car and pops open my trunk from the inside of my driver’s side; in my head I was thinking what the hell is he doing. And what do you fuckin know. he take out a huge white plastic bag full of to-​go food and a case of beer. He says, «Oh I just went to the market down the street.» I mean who the fuck does that! Umm yah someone who’s probably uneducated! Idiot I say!.. I mean don’t you have your own car? or perhaps the other three mechanics sitting behing you that you could borrow? I obviously have no intention to ever go back here nor do I recommend this place to anyone. Although my fiancée did end up speaking to his manager on this incident and even though he did apologize to us, there is no way in hell we would ever do business with such unprofessionals nor should anyone else for that matter. Unless you want your car ending up smelling like food, possibly getting stains for those who newly vacuumed or are easily grossed out and have a sensitive sense to certain smells. I suggest you keep away from this place.

I’ve been going to this auto repair shop for 6 years. Andy (the owner) is so nice and easy to work with. He knows all about cars, any car. He is honest, straight forward and his prices are the cheapest around. My entire family goes to him with any problems with their cars. From Acura’s to SUV’s, to sports cars, he has proven all these years to be the most reliable. He’s great for women since he won’t treat you like you don’t know what your talking about or try to overcharge you.
I did not want to post him on here because he truly is a gem and I know that he will get tons of business! I wanted to keep him all to myself but to tell you the truth he is too good and I hope his business grows by posting him here.
If you want a great mechanic who you can count on for ANYTHING, give Andy a call and tell him you found him on Unilocal
