Farshid is an honest mechanic. I brought my 2000 bmw 323i in because it was overheating. A different had told me that I needed a new water pump and a thermostat housing unit, so this is what I told Farshid to replace. He ran a few tests on my cooling system and immediately ruled out water pump and thermostat. Come to find out all I needed was a new radiator cap, which only costed $20. Very, very honest mechanic.

The owner of this place will only be after the customer as his money pit..... farshid offerred to replace my 95 oddysey engine for $1800 coz he said he can get a nice engine from virginia. it turned out that after one month that engine was like my old engine. it eats up 3 quartz of oild in 4 wks. he promised that he can fix it by changing the oil every month for the next few months since the engine was lying on... view more the junk yard for yrs and it needs some time to be repaired using some additives in the oil changes he will do. but after nine months of changing the oil as his solution, 2 valves died and told me that he can fix them for another $600. this guy should not be doing business anymore for the public coz he is just a liar. as a professional mechanic he should have known in a glance that the engine will not be last and yet he went ahead and installed it in my car. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNIVERSAL AUTO TO ANYBODY.

first, they are very slow; they said the job is only for one hour, however i waited there from 8am - 11:30am. If i know it was that long, i could have use that time to do something else. Second, dishonest; the parts from the dealer only about $60, however, they got it from non-dealer that cost $90. How can the parts from non-dealer could more expensive? Third, they broke some parts of my car while fixed my car. The... view morerefore, i spent money on fixing my car and spent additional money on fixing the part that they broke. I thought it cost only about $300, but end up $600. conclusion, i will never go back and i would not recommand to anyone.
