San Carlos Auto Works

Brought my car in for an oil change. Price was reasonable and service was great. Quick, friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. They let me know a few things I should keep an eye on, but didn’t upsell me.

Went in for an oil change today, it was quick and reasonably priced. The owner found out a few issues with the car and explain pretty well about the next steps. Will definitely come back!

Two professional mechanics run this legitimate business. Highly recommended quality service. I was very pleased with the friendly, and courteous experience. Brought my c300 Benz in for an oil change, filter change and wiring issue and was satisfied with the work done and reasonably priced as well. I will definitely continue to bring my vehicle here. Thank you Sam and Thomas!

As the other reviews raved...an excellent shop of professional mechanics. Knowing almost nothing about cars, I was worried about taking my car in for the first time. They were honest, friendly, and did an excellent job. They described things in words I could understand and did not try to upsell me. I have no worries going there again for anything car related.

First time getting oil change done in 35mins, which is amazing considering I used to spend 1.5-2 hrs for that in other places, even with appointments. This place is by appointment only so make sure you call. I called a day ahead. Owner was very friendly and not trying to sell any products, which is also rare🤣standard checkups were included as well. Price was also very good. Highly recommend!

These guys are the best. I've worked them through 2 cars. An old 2003 BMW and a 2011 Lexus. They've been extremely transparent, kind, and flexible. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking.

Awesome guys, theybdo great work and they have reasonable prices.

5 Star. Best shop I've been to. Came in upset bc of Honda prices and Sam (owner) put me at ease. Really really took care of me. I will be back for Everything in the future! Thank you Sam!!

I recently changed my engine oil at a decent price here. The owner(*I’m not sure whether he was a owner or a mechanic who works there tho) was super kind and did not try to up-sell anything. I really liked his attitude. The car runs really well now without any problem. Highly recommended!

Got my oil changed here for my Hyundai sonata and the team did a great job and it was done in about 20 minutes!

Excellent customer service! They are so professional and helped me fixed my car w/ price weigh below the other 3 auto shops that I had asked the estimate for. Will definitely come back in the future!

Lixin (Sam) was very receptive on the phone and in person. He slotted me for an appointment and took my car in exactly on time. Prices are reasonable. The storefront is a bit tucked away behind other auto repair shops in a dead-end driveway so drive slowly.

Great service! In and out quickly! No hidden fees like precision tune auto in San Mateo charges. Definitely recommend San Carlos!!!😁 I know my boyfriend and I will definitely be back!!

This is the best experience I have ever had getting my oil changed. The guys were kind and professional, and I was out the door in 23 minutes. I will definitely come back.

Brought the car in because I heard a rattling upon starting it. Was a little over a $100 to do the diagnostic which required taking apart the engine to get to the source. Was worried the charge was going to be much more once they were finished but it wasn't. They also quoted me a price to do some other work on the car as well and it was about half the price I'd received from another shop.

Loved the deal on my full synthetic oil change and they offered to keep giving it to me at that special price...I don't live in the area, but this is my GO-TO spot for oil changes.

Very nice and honest practice. My car only need a oil change and that’s the only thing being done and recommended there.

Went for a full synthetic oil change. Very fast and quality service. Price very competitive. Owners also speak Cantonese.

Been there for leaked oil and regular maintenance. Great service and competitive pricing

I came here for an oil change. By the time I finished my lunch nearby my car was done. Perfect timing.
