Another shop quoted a $2,500 catalytic converter. We found a loose exhaust and fixed it for under $100.

That is the whole idea. A straight diagnosis, a fair price, and a shop that would rather keep you for twenty years than upsell you once.

Under one roof

Everything from a muffler to a tune-up

We are a muffler and exhaust shop at heart, but the bays handle the whole car, brakes, alignment, A/C, diagnostics and the mileage services in between.

Mufflers & Custom Exhaust

Our specialty. Repairs, replacements and performance exhaust, from a quiet daily driver to a Flowmaster growl.

Brakes & ABS

Free brake and exhaust inspection, then pads, rotors and ABS work done right. You will know what is worn before we touch it.

Computerized Alignment

2-wheel and 4-wheel alignment on Hunter HawkEye equipment. Stops the pull and saves your tires.

Air Conditioning

A/C service and recharge for R12 and R134A systems, so a Southern California summer stays bearable.

Engine Diagnostics

Check-engine code scans and scope tests to find the real fault, not a guess and a parts cannon.

Oil, Tune-Ups & Mileage Service

Oil changes, full tune-ups and 30k, 60k and 90k mile services that keep the miles adding up.

Batteries & Charging

Battery load testing, alternators and starting systems, so a dead battery never leaves you stranded.

Cooling & Radiators

Radiators, water pumps and cooling-system work that keeps the temperature gauge where it belongs.

Suspension & Front End

Struts, shocks, CV boots, drive axles and front-end repairs for a ride that feels planted again.

Polished stainless exhaust and mufflers on display

Came here for a second opinion after another shop told me I needed a $2,500 catalytic converter. These guys took a look, found it was just a loose exhaust issue, and fixed it for under $100. Huge difference. They honestly saved me a ton of money. Super straightforward and honest. Definitely recommend if you want a shop that does not try to oversell you.

Came in to see why my check engine was on. Left with it off. Carson is a great guy, super informative. Told me what was happening and got the part within an hour. Great service great prices. In and out fast.

Super grateful for this shop. After calling about options for my car post catalytic-converter theft, I came in and was met with empathy, support, and practical steps forward. After learning I had ordered the incompatible after-market parts, they also helped me save a lot of time by researching exact part numbers. I never felt like I was being upsold.
