I'm 32 y/o professional who drives daily. I'm not a 'car person' my driving is usually hard on a vehicle.\r
So I had taken my cars to many mechanics before and had different experiences - some better and some worse. In every case I felt like I didn't know exactly what was going on, and if I was charged fairly. I was never in control.\r
\r
Until I met this guy. A friend of mine referred me to this auto mechanic. He was very religious about using only his services and told me that he was the most knowledgeable and honest mechanic in town.\r
\r
I'm full of gratitude for this referral. And this is the only reason I'm writing this review - people should know about REAL and HONEST service providers.\r
\r
Anyhow, the owner of the business turned out to have a great attitude. He impressed me with his knowledge. He explained all options not just from technical perspective, but from financial one. I knew exactly what I was offered, why I needed that service, what would happen if I chose a different option, etc. etc.\r
He offered me different options as to purchasing the spare parts, including used ones or new, branded ones. \r
I felt like he was my buddy, who was trying to help by offering the best work and charging fairly. \r
The work was done fast and excellent. It still lasts.\r
It wasn't an easy task too. He repaired the engine for a very and rare Toyota Van. He also helped me to prepare the previous car for sale, by fixing very specific and complex problem.\r
I was impressed with the range of his knowledge and asked him how he ended up being so qualified.\r
His story was actually quite interesting - he had gotten a University degree in mechanical engineering in Russia and then tons of education in the US.\r
He is basically a brain surgeon when it comes to cars. And he is affordable.\r
\r
So I feel like this is a great chance for me to thank him for his professionalism, honesty. and consistency. I actually learned something from him about life and integrity. \r
