I had a fantastic experience at Five Speed Motors Auto Repair! The staff were extremely professional and friendly. They not only completed my oil change efficiently, but also took the initiative to inspect my brakes and advise on any potential tune-up needs. Thankfully, my vehicle didn't require any additional work at this time. I'm thoroughly impressed with their exceptional service and would highly recommend them to anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy car maintenance.
I really love this shop. They are so kind and so helpful. Today I overslept for my appointment and Rubin who usually answers the phone was so kind and understanding and let me still come in where they fixed a small wiring problem for free. They truly are the best and so kind. 10/10
They did a wonderful job with fixing my 2015 Toyota Prius’s steering wheel cover that had loosened and kept continuously honking whilst steering and wouldn’t stop honking like at all. The whole process took several days to complete. They’d had to order parts that took a couple of days to get delivered, but were capable of getting the parts in I believe 2 days sooner than predicted, which was fabulous and a very pleasant surprise when they’d called to let me know that they were finished operating. Very friendly service from the employees, and they’d also been very helpful and thorough with answering my questions with the payment, which ended up being $900, which was $100 less than a different place that had quoted me before. Thanks so much, 5 Speed!
I had an excellent experience at 5-Speed motors! I initially went in for an oil change, and the team went above and beyond by also replacing my washer without me even asking. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction were evident throughout the visit. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, getting the job done quickly while ensuring everything was done right.
Brought my 2019 Lexus UX F-Sport in today for routine maintenance (oil change, filter, etc.) and had a great experience! Reached out to them via Yelp and they responded within hours with a quote. They offered the best prices around so it was a no brainer to go with them. Was super easy to schedule an appointment. Day of, they worked on my car immediately unlike some shops who take forever to actually work on your car. They also did a full inspection to make sure everything else was working as it shoul d be. All was good, and I appreciated how they didn't upsell any additional services that I didn't need like some other auto shops. I was in and out within the hour, and spent *significantly* less than what I've paid in the past — what more can you ask for, right? Please note that the getting in / out of the shop can be tricky, but they helped pull my car out of the lot — which they didn't have to do at all (but shows that they go above and beyond) — which was the cherry on top of an already 5-star experience. Will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend this place to others!
The guys at 5 speeds have helped me out 3 times now. Each time i called ahead and they had me bring my car same-day. They make every effort to get things repaired that day, too. On the latest occasion, they ordered a part locally and fixed the issue within a few hours; the same problem took my prior mechanic days. Prices are more than fair from what I can tell. I am so relieved to have a shop I can trust!
I got a full synthetic oil change here. Good prices, did have to pay an extra $7 beyond the Groupon but it was a good service. I’m going to try them for repairs in the future and update later.
This review is long overdue. Not only is everyone here super friendly and honest, but they do incredible work for a great price ! I get my oil changed here regularly and just about anything I need for my car, they can do! I recommend them to all of my friends and they even took my old car headlights and made them look amazing! Highly recommend 5 Speed Motors for oil changes,auto repairs, car maintenance and everything in between! They are great!
Great service for a great price! Really happy with the work on my car!
Real men are working over there! Especially Armen , he has golden hands . Quick . Excellent job. Good price.
Had an oil change and service tires, they were quick and responsive.
5 speed is fast, honest, affordable, and does quality work. For some reason places like this are impossible to find in the car service/repair industry but if you re looking for the perfect auto shop then I d like to be the first to congratulate you. Your search is over.
serving our community with reasonable prices and good sevice thank you
These guys are great. You don t need an appointment to drop off a vehicle! I still can t get over that, I m used to Firestone making me wait days just to look at my car. They were so fast and still had time to do some maintenance I had put off. Very affordable too. I highly recommend.
Youll get honest diagnoses here at a fair price.
Five Speed Auto Repair offers exceptional service, thanks to its standout mechanics, Amer and Yazen. Their professionalism and attention to detail ensure your car is in excellent hands. The shop is well-maintained and equipped with modern technology, highlighting their commitment to quality. For reliable and meticulous car care, Amer and Yazen at Five Speed are highly recommended
Been coming here for years, fast and professional every time
I have been coming to this shop for the past three years. Very honest and nice guys. Their services are also reasonably priced.
Great job! Great price
They were very attentive to my concerns and carried out my service in a timely manner. I highly recommend!
Great spot for brakes!
I was here on vacation and ran over something that flattened my tire. Thankfully, I was able to actually drive it to 5 speed motors. I called and they got me right in. The guy told me right away that they found the leak but it was close to wall so they weren t for sure if it could be repaired and if not, I would need a new tire. But they fixed it!! And it was very inexpensive. The driveway/parking is a tight squeeze so the guy helped me drive it in and out (since I m not from here, I was super nervous about the traffic). Anyway, I was having a very frustrating and upsetting day and these guys were awesome! Would use them again. Thank you!
Ive been coming here for years. They are very efficient and knowledgeable. They also make sure that the job is done correctly. Last time they even called me to ask me to go back because they noticed some oil where my car was parked. They wanted to make sure my car wasnt leaking. Everything turned out to be fine but that shows how much they care about what theyre doing. I recommend this place to everyone I know and they are now loyal customers too.
Good fast and reliable service
Got the buy 2 get 2 free tire deal, and a Groupon for a synthetic oil change. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous, and the prices seemed very reasonable and fair after doing an online check for each part/tire. They also helped me reset my tire pressure afterwards. Will definitely be coming back for future maintenance.
I just had both front and back brakes done on my vehicle. I first came to 5 Speed Motors on a Groupon for an oil change and tire rotation, and then I returned for a front axle. They always get me back on the road as quickly as possible. The place may look shabby and unkempt to some, look past that, youll be glad you did. 5 Speed does good work, and their prices are reasonable. Theyre trustworthy, plus Nick communicates quickly and openly. I highly recommend you give them a try.
Good job!
They have always taken care of me when it comes to the brakes on my car. This time I needed a CAI installed and they gave me a very reasonable price. They had me in and out in under an hour and did not charge me anywhere near what the dealer wanted. They dont mind of you bring your own parts which is a rarity these days.
Been going to this shop for 3 years and they are very honest If work doesnt need to be done they dont quote it Simple and straightforward you will not be disappointed using them Services Air and cabin filter replacement, Battery, Oil change, Service not listed
This place is amazing, they have helped me so much with my troublesome 2002 Honda where other mechanics were really struggling. They are also super fast and communicative! Highly recommend.
This place is the Best. Came here with a Groupon years ago for an oil change and have been coming ever since and they never try to upsale me unneeded junk. Last time i came in, they told me I needed my brakes done, and I trusted them as I was at 80,000 miles. They quoted me a rate better than any other place I could find.. They even had a better rate than anything I could find on Groupon for a brake job. They are quick and easy and no bull.
I had a mobile mechanic diagnose my car because it was immobile sitting in a parking garage. I had a major leak because a new motor was put in before I bought it. Whoever put it in did not put it in right and it was sitting heavy on everything to the point the mounts cracked and the fuel pump busted. In a nutshell I bought a fuel pump and took it to 5 speed motors...I told them exactly what wa wrong and they still demanded to do their own diagnosis..which was fine. They called me a day later and said my car was just out of gas. I told them AGAIN that there is a leak and that the motor is to heavy and busted the fuel pump open. They said ok and looked at it again. Called me back again and confirmed what I already told them twice and said that it would be to expensive to lift the motor up yet They never even gave me a quote. When I picked the car up I paid $320. The $20 was for putting gas in my car..the $300 was for a diagnosis which I told them about twice. Also when I got in my car it wouldnt start and they has to jump it and on top of that my fuses went our lol...I paid to tow it there and left with an extra problem and paid for .....I got ripped off basically. Never gonna go here again.
We had a nail in our tire and Nick and team really took care of us. Same day service and was in and out within 25 minutes. I really appreciate this local Silverlake auto repair business. Thanks again!
Stopped in for a slow leak in my tire. They were super quick (in and out in 15 minutes), honest, and had really great pricing. Gonna come back here in the future for tire service and oil changes for sure.
I brought my car in after being out town for a couple of weeks and saw that the check engine light was on. The guys here are super nice and very helpful :) they were able to fix the issue in less than an hour
Back in 2018, the help repair my Toyota Corolla s head gasket. Very good service.
Today was my first time at 5 Speed Motors, and gotta say they got great service and reasonable prices. I got a full synthetic oil change and tire rotation all under a $100 which I gotta say surprised me! Im definitely coming back and recommend this place
Amazing guys, Amazing service, affordable + honest. Ask for Chris or Nick
Number 1!
I got my Honda Accord fixed very quickly thanks to the owner of the shop and Sean, the customer representative. I highly recommended this place for staff friendliness and great customer service.
Super friendly, family owned, very good work, affordable, Shaun is the best !
This shop was fast, professional and the price was great. They also showed me that I had a bald tire that I didnt know about, so I got that replaced and avoided a blowout. Thats a big blessing! They also advised me on some information for bodywork that I need. Above & beyond!
They were very professional and patient. They stuck to the price they quoted me for the repair. I ve also stopped in to have a tail light bulb replaced and they fixed it for free! Great mechanics
I like the guys here so much, the price is great, the people here are so friendly. I get replacement for my brakes and it feels so good. At the time when I want to drive away after the fixing, they noticed my left brake light is not working, they fix it within 2 minutes without charging any fee. Thanks so much or I may get a pull-over by police.
Awesome service, great pricing, for once a mechanic shop that I dont have to feel like they are ripping me off because I am a girl! Definitely coming back here!
I am glad I chose this location to drop my car off. The gentleman that assisted me made me feel confident that he will take care of my car. I already trust that staff and will be updating my comment once I pick up my car.
Highly recommend! Very attentive staff, hard working, really enjoyed my experience. Sean and everyone else were amazing!
Great customer service, found the issue and was able to give the best solution to do so
Was referred to them by a friend. I had a screw in my tire and long term mold for like four months in my car. The first place I went to told me they had to replace tire, these guys repaired it for a fair price! They also found the real reason for the mold when other mechanics kept telling me they didn t know or don t deal with it. They were friendly, professional and organized! You don t find that often in a mechanic shop. I always pay attention to how people run their business bc I ve been a business organizer for a long time. Super super grateful for these guys!! They eliminated a lot of stress that was on my mind.
They have a fantastic team working at 5 Speed Motors! We bought a new set of 5 tires had them balanced and mounted for a very reasonable price. They also offer other automotive repair and maintenance services for the Silver Lake area.
They were kind and attentive. I had rear brakes and filters changed in 2 hour at less than a quarter of the dealers cost.
In town from Reno/Lake Tahoe area and these guys checked our 4WD truck for free. It gave us peace of mind knowing nothing was urgent so we could make the drive back safely. Really appreciate it thanks so much.
Found these guys via Groupon,got a full synthetic oil change and got free rotation of my tires for under 50 bucks,the place is located across from King Jr high school, parking is tricky cause they are always busy with multiple cars but their service is 5 stars and they do free checkups on just about anything,these guys are the most honest people,no bs,no upsales just good advice and the cost for repairs is very affordable,just about all repairs can be done here including rebuilds and body work u highly recommend these guys for all mechanical work
Nick and his team are awesome! Trustworthy & professional. They wont do you dirty.
I have always been the type of guy who does three quotations and checks reviews before deciding where to bring my car for services. I tried a few body shops for small things and I always felt they wanted to push me to do things that werent really necessary at the time. Sometimes, I would be concerned about possible maintenance my car needed, and after showing it to Chris or Nick, they would dismiss it! Even after liking their services, I would get other quotations just to see if they would rip me off, and their prices were always the best or very close to it. I do trust and recommend them to everyone in LA. Give them a try! :)
Great service and very trustworthy.
In and out. Honest and no gouging. Always surprised by how little I am charged. Just a bunch of guys getting stuff done.
CUSTOMERS BEWARE!!!!! DO NOT DO BUSINESS HERE!!! Unbelievably HORRIBLE experience!!!!! Nick SOLD a car that we had already committed to buying , had the financing in place and a down payment ready to hand him. My husband had flown out to LA to help our daughter find a car and had to extend his stay due to the incompetence of Nick. He apparently was not knowledgeable enough in dealing with an out of state lender and the process of financing. The California DMV representative that I spoke to told me that he shouldve known the answers to the questions that he asked us to find out. It seemed he was too lazy and did not want to put forth any effort to sell this car. He ONLY WANTS CASH SALES! Nick is incompetent, dishonest and untrustworthy......the WORST traits for a person in the line of work he is in. I would not recommend him or this establishment to my worst enemy! It doesnt even deserve the 1 star that I HAD to rate it in order to be able to post this comment...
bad service didnt repair anything, charge too much. also engine oil is soooo bad
Fast friendly and the best service Ive ever experienced at an oil change spot
Dependable. Fast service.
Great customer service! Got a oil change in record time. No up selling and they are thorough. These guys know what theyve doing!
First time there. They will be my maintenance guys from now on.
Chris and his crew are very nice, professional and their services are reasonably priced!! They even found the real problem with my A/C after Pep Boys gave me the wrong information, went and got the part needed, and installed it the same day-for 1/2 of what Pep Boys wouldve charged! These guys rock!!
I purchased the groupon deal with wheel alignment. When I first arrived, the gentleman said groupons had to be scheduled in advance. So basically Groupons are second to walk ins ok no biggie. I returned 4 days later and everything was groovy until he tried to upsell me on tires and an axle assembly but his quote was steep. The problem is that when I checked my oil a few days later, I noticed that my oil was really dark. It was as if I didnt get an oil change which by default means the filter was not changed. Ive gone to jiffy lub in the past and my oil is always clean/clear after an oil change hence oil change. I called the office and the gentleman said that its probably my transmission but I told him my transmission oil was changed a month ago so it absolutely can not be that. I will not recommend this place at all bc not only was my filter not changed but I went to another mechanic and was told that I didnt need a new axle assembly and I purchased 2 new tires for literally half the price. No thanks.
They seem to always do a good job. It s frustrating when there s more things wrong that u find out about after getting there, but I don t feel they take advantage of the customer for it. They seem like nice guys who like to fix cars lol
Check out their Groupon. Super helpful.
This place did not screw on my oil cap after the job was done and I realized this after my engine entire car started to smell like oil. Now I need to clean my engine and possibly get a new oil change for my vehicle because I am unsure how much oil came out of the engine.
I go here for all my oil changes, great Groupon
Very nice service indeed! I will be back. He told me that there was something else wrong with my car that I wasnt prepared to pay for but there was absolutely no pressure. I loooooved that! But what needs to be done I will get done by 5 Speed Motors. Thank you guys for being professional. Very grateful for the good service
Oil change. Overall good service. They also patched my tire. Place was really dirty. Its just an indicator of professionalism. I might go back as the price was good.
Wasnt acknowledged and I stood there several mins until I finally asked for help. I needed an change as I am driving up north. They were unprofessional in the sense that they werent nice. I had an appointment and just wanted good service. I wont return.
Do not recommend. Asked if they would be able to check my Audi, I thought I was experiencing issues with low transmission fluid, and they told me to bring it in. Told me I had a broken engine mount, and a transmission issue they could not diagnose. Something didn t feel right, they mentioned that it sounds like something is banging around inside, that s your broken engine mount . No - that wasn t something I was experiencing. Took it to another shop who confirmed my engine mounts were fine, fixed my transmission fluid and reset my computer.
This is the best mechanic shop in Los Angeles Hands Down. The people who run it are extremely professional yet friendly. Whatever job needs to be done gets done with timeliness and top notch service. I honestly cannot recommend a better place to take your car.
These guys are the best and saying that about any mechanic means something. My car has never run better. Honest and trustworthy
They were honest in identifying and correcting an issue that was caused by another local body shop. The other shop is good too but they forgot to connect some wires after they completed the work. I was not misled by 5 speed nor was i over charged by them. Good on them
Twice now I have used this company and will not again. Both times they did not rotate tires which was a featurepaid for on my Groupon. . Saving them time on servicing my vehicle. Both times they tried to up sell me on new tires. I have taken my car to a few different tire places who has both confirmed there is nothing wrong with them. Since they did not do a service that had been purchased you eould thing they would wave the service fee they charged me after the service was done.
Did my brakes a week ago and was on the freeway my back brake caliper was about to fall off. Had to stop at a shop by my girlfriends house to get calipers put on right. Scratched my caliper up. Bad break services!
Great customer service
I always come here for my oil change. Theyre professional, fast and friendly! Highly recommend.
Horrible service. Very disrespectful and pushy. Im an African American male and i heard alex call me the N word.
Great service
I was having a terrible morning my engine started over heating. I called several mechanics who were no help at all. Then I called 5 Speed Auto Repair Chris answered and was lovely on the phone said they could fit me right in (it was 1pm on a saturday) and it was no problem. As soon as i arrived they looked at the car and said it was the water pump 4hrs later it was fixed. NO DRAMA NO HASSLE. They also changed the conector on my battery as it was lose and the timming belt as it was cracked. Chris and his team are now my go to mechanics. Love them such nice guys great service amdnd top quality repairs at fair prices.
Even though I had a feeling that it was a very small mom and pop shop I had no issues with the garage and I was so relaxed and pleased with the experience of the ease of use of my Groupon as I had hoped for the best time for me to get served with my change.
Yes, I love them. Very knowledgeable Mechanics.
Very nice place and they have a special but two tires get two free. I do recommend them
Discovered them on Groupon and so glad I did. I don t know many people in this city enough to know a guy that knows a guy but I feel really lucky to have found these guys! They do excellent work at excellent prices and are very kind, upfront, and honest. Just read other reviews! This will definitely be my go-to place from now on.
They do a good job in changing oil and rotating tires if you buy theiur Groupon voucher. Other jobs that they recommend you to do, you should double check or seek a second opinion first before authorizing any extra work.
Very helpful, straight shooters, they only charge you for what your need
Love this place
Found them on Groupon and came for a oil change. Not only were the workers extremely friendly and good at communicating, they finished my oil change in maybe 15-20 mins and i wish i was exaggerating when I say that I left the lot and it felt like a I was driving an entirely new car. Definitely worth it and so glad I discovered them on Groupon because I will definitely be back!!!!!
Very honest mechanics here. And the best rates in all of Los Angeles Ca. If you want to get your car fixed and not stress on being taken advantage of, this is the place! I wouldnt take my car anywhere else.
Best oil service
These guys are great! They always give great reliable timely service and awesome competitive pricing! Ive been going here for tune ups, oil changes and any major fixes for the past 3 years!
This guys are the best, good price, great and fast customer service but most important exellent job. I love when I take my car and not just one but 2 or 3 guys come and check and talk about what needs to be done.
They are okay, it seems like they are missing something though, I wish the location was in a safer place and they did more cool deals or car wraps or something.
Excellent Service Guys!! Atte: Luis Del Cid
Great service, better than pep boys, better than jiffy lube. Took my 2006 Cadillac CTS there today 11-13-2019, and the service was great, great employee s. People go here. They also do other auto repairs and also sells tires. Check it out you want be disappointed.
Helpful!
Chris is the man! He works with ya. Solid shop. Would recommend!
Quick and easy oil change. Took 30 minutes. Friendly guys. Made recommendations for upcoming maintenance.
Product: brake service both axles Great customer service!
The staff here was friendly, efficient and a great job. I can in for a an oil change and they gave me a deal that was online and had my oil changed in under an hour. Definitely recommend!
Great friendly fast service I been here many time always great experience
Trust worthy mechanics
They were supposed to rotate the tires along with the oil change. They didnt rotate the tires. Update: the shop made good and rotated the tires . Thanks
I got new brakes and an oil change yesterday. The guys at the shop actually seem like they care about you and your car. They even inspected and tightened a few things for free. They really go above and beyond. And they are funny too! I recommend this place to everyone.
I just got my oil changed here because there was a groupon for a significant discount. I also asked them to check my breaks because what I believed was the break light was on. They men were all very nice, and took my car right away without an appointment, which I was super grateful for. However, they called to tell me that my break pads were worn down to nothing and I needed to replace all four breaks for about $500. I told them I wanted to hold off for money purposes. After I picked up the car I took it to my usual mechanic who told me that my break pads still have quite a bit of life in them, they can go until at least my next oil change. He also said that when that happens Im looking at about $200 tops. Turns out the light on my dash was actually a tire pressure light, and my break warning lights werent on at all. 5 Speed Motors was trying to overcharge me for a service I didnt even need. I highly advise getting a second opinion before working with them, or better yet, just go to Silverlake Automotive for a true honest mechanic.
I just came from my second oil change and tire rotation. This time i m also changing the air filter. Chris is so nice, and very reasonably priced. Very established business with this being his new second location. Check them out!
Very fast and friendly, I will strongly recommend.
