Kiro is the man! I was on a roadtrip in my '69 911 and I needed a top off of Motul oil for Classics. He had some extra laying around that he gave to me. I got to hear a bit of his story and see the shop. If I was local, I'd trust my Porsche with him!

Kiro does excellent work, is 100% transparent and honest and offers a fair price. He’s an expert on all things German and has worked on two VW wagons for me quickly and efficiently. Definitely one of the best mechanics in town for your VW, BMW, Porsche, Audi service and repair. I can’t recommend this guy enough!

My Audi a4 broke down on the 154 and Kiro stayed open late to get my car into his shop. He diagnosed the issue realizing it was the spark plugs and fixed it the next day by 1pm. He is very knowledgeable and provides great customer service. He is very responsive and very flexible to fit the customers needs! He charges a very fair price. I will definently continue going to him for all my mechanical needs!

Best auto shop in town. If you want someone who is transparent, knowledgeable, and works efficiently, you have to come see Kiro. He’s been servicing my car for a while and I can’t not recommend him enough. 10 and of 10!

Kiro is very knowledgable about all cars. His passion is finding solution to problems that other auto shops refuse to do or quote crazy numbers. When I brought my car in, the service was exceptional and everything was done with high quality and honesty.

My car had some rodents that chewed up the wiring and I took it to Oren's Auto and they gave me a "We don't want to do it quote" which was more than the car was worth. Kiro Auto was able to cleaned it up and fixed within a day. I can not thank him enough.
