V-Tec Auto Repair

Needed a last-minute repair and found this shop on a Google search near the auto parts store I was grabbing a battery from. Turns out my alternator was bad and needed to have it swap immediately. Well taken care of and same day alternator swap on a saturday! Needed someone in a pinch and ended up finding my new go to mechanic.

V-Tec is the best! I went to them many years ago. As a single woman at the time, I got the run around from a couple of car repair places. Colin at V-Tec checked the problem, gave me a quote and time frame for the repair. They didn't try to sell me on more things to be done, the price was less than the other two places I went. Since then I have referred at lest 10 people, who thanked me for letting them know about V-Tec and their great experience with them.

91 Toyota MR2 turbo timing belt jumped and had the car towed here by suggestion of friend and I was worried with how unusual the car was that they would have trouble or outright deny the job, but they did a great job and kept in contact through the process. They even went out of their way to replace an incorrectly sized bolt they found that a previous owner had used for the water pump.

I’ve been going to these guys for almost 18 years. They are friendly and have fair prices. Their work is decent also. I only had one bad experience with my head gasket. They replaced the head gasket and my engine blew. It was going to do that anyway but I remember that I asked to replace the engine instead of fixing the head gasket. However, they were kind and replaced my engine at a reduced price. Again, not their fault the engine blew because I’ve been driving the car with a bad head gasket for years. As a matter of fact I have my car there now getting a couple of sensors replaced. I highly recommend these guys.
