Been taking my cars here since we moved to the Bay 5 years ago. Yao has always done things right. He’s always transparent and honest. Recently, the local dealer was gonna charge $4400 for a lower control arm bushing replacement (yes, I know, insane). Texted Yao, he said initially he could do it for $850, but then updated me promptly saying the job was easier than the manual suggested, revising his price to $250. Just got the car back and it drives great. This example really shows his integrity and honesty, and it’s why I’ll keep taking my cars to him!

Shady and untrustworthy shop owner. He Charges more than the dealer for brake fluid change and when I asked if he bleeds the valve at each wheel he said that he only bleeds just one and when I told him that the proper way is to bleed all 4 he acknowledge that this is the right way to do the job but he said that I have to pay an additional $80 for him to bleed the other 3 valves. Stay away from this dishonest and bad shop.
