AC TECH Auto Repair & Service

I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with AC Tech Auto Repair. After taking my G-Wagon G550 to a car wash, the engine stalled and would not restart. I initially had the vehicle towed to Keyes Mercedes-Benz, where, after a week and a half, they informed me that the repair would require replacing three computers and the complete wiring harness, totaling an estimated $17,650. Seeking a second opinion, my brother-in-law recommended AC Tech Auto Repair. I spoke with the owner, Emiliano, who invited me to bring the vehicle in for a proper diagnostic. Within just two days, Emiliano identified the actual issue: the SAM module had sustained water damage and required replacement. He replaced and programmed the component, while taking the time to thoroughly explain the issue to me. The total cost for the repair was $1,693. I am incredibly impressed by the professional, reliable, and honest service I received. I will no longer be returning to the dealership for repairs, as I have found an excellent mechanic. Thank you, Emiliano, for getting my vehicle back on the road; you have earned a loyal new customer.

I couldn't recommend Emiliano and the team at AC TECH more highly. They have taken care of my car for everything from routine oil changes and brake service to more involved maintenance like transmission fluid and filter changes. Every job is done with skill and care. Emiliano is honest, efficient, and truly knowledgeable. You never have that uneasy feeling of being overcharged or sold services you don't need. His entire staff is friendly and professional, and the shop itself is always impressively clean and well-kept. Finding a mechanic you can trust completely is rare. I'm so glad I found AC TECH. If you want great work and honest service from genuinely good people, this is the place.

I went to Emiliano's shop to get a few routine maintenance items completed for my Alfa Romeo Giulia. He did a great job and took much less time than I would've spent at the dealer. I fully trust this shop with my vehicle!

I've recently had a major transmission issue on my Honda Clarity Plug in. Long story short I've had the whole thing replaced and I have only positive things to say about this shop. I can highly recommend this place, Emiliano's professionalism and approach is top class. Their pricing is very fair and the work was done in an efficient manner. I only regret is taking my car previously to a local Honda dealership instead of here. Anyways thanks again guys I'll be coming back (in case of needing repairs), your dedication is highly appreciated!

I'm notoriously annoying about my cars and the only shop I will let go anywhere near my car is AC Tech Auto. Quality: The techs are overqualified and very much knowledgeable about any and all makes. Foreign or domestic isn't a problem for them. I've wandered in on them working on Mazda rotary 13B rotary engines from a formula Mazda. I can't think of many mechanics in LA today even willing to attempt that. You've got a prius? They can fix it. You've got a V12 mercedes S-class from the mid 90s? They can fix it. Pricing and fairness: For perspective, at the time of this review I am 21 years old. As a 21 year old unfortunately, I'm not rolling in money. I also drive a 16 year old BMW and prefer to keep it in good shape. That doesn't scream financially affordable. Luckily they've always been straight with me on what is an absolute necessity and what can wait (They have no problem explaining why on a mechanical level). Every time I've needed something done, they've made it work. Mind you that doesn't mean they cheap out on parts either, they're eager to give you the choice of what goes in your car and the prices they offer are genuinely cheaper compared to other shops. I'm saying that from experience calling and comparing. AC Tech Auto is a shop for enthusiasts and the everyday driver. (this is actually my second time reviewing them, I saw for some reason the original Google listing for the shop was taken down, but I will vouch they've always maintained a perfect 5 stars and unsurprisingly so.)
