I have been going to this garage since Annesley Motors in Fairview closed their doors, so all in all about 9 / 10 years . I had a nightmare of a VW Fox and Gerry ( the owner ) and his team at Autopoint were absolutely first class in dealing with its many , many problems over the years . I bought a new Hyundai in 2017 and even though it has a five year warranty which is not worth the paper it is written on I continued to have my services done at Autopoint rather than pay inflated prices with the Hyundai dealer . I recently had an engine problem and as usual Gerry was honest and upfront about cost and outcomes and solved the problem without financial gain to himself . He is honest and fair and I would recommend his services to everyone . The fact that he is always fully booked speaks volumes about this business . Happy New Year to Gerry and the team at Autopoint .

Mixed feelings here, these are a trusted mechanic of Cameron Cars in which I bought my car. I had a squeaky water pump since I got the car, brought it here twice, first time told they couldn't make it happen. Second time told it's a characteristic of the engine (it's not!) Third time they finally replaced the pump and (so far) the noise is gone. This was all under warranty so I can't speak about price. But three visits to get honest work done was a bit much for me. I'll update this if the squeak returns. I've no proof they actually replaced it.

Brilliant place, we got a flat tyre on the way home from work had to be drove on, my boyfriend went to work the next day and I couldn't drive one of the guys went across the road and drove the car to the shop changed the tyre in seconds I thought I was going to be late for work but I wasn't so I got the wipers replaced also, they also drove the car back to where it was parked. Bare in mind I didn't book anything I asked could it be done and the gentleman said yes. Will definitely be back as I just got my first car. Thanks so much guys

This mechanic shop is a disgrace and robbers. I had a problem with my brake pump and he got quoted €500 to replace it, parts not included the quote. I refused. Then he charged me €100 for identify the problem that it was so obvious, when I wanted to take my car from shop. Parked outside the shop for 2 days for nothing. (wasted my time). I did it myself with few euro sockets and got the problem fixed for €15 at all of problem. Not to be trusted. Don’t waste your time. Better avoid!

  • felix lin

  • Emma Dillon

Excellent service. Left the car in on Saturday for a full service, break repair and a rear tyre puncture along with a few minor tweaks to be done. Federico was amazing, kept me well informed of everything that needed to be done, the cost and the time frame. Picked the car up on the Monday and the car's driving better than when I bought it. 10/10 would definitely recommend and will be going back here for my annual service! (2008 Kia Rio)

  • Felipe Munhos

I went to this mechanic because I was in a hurry to fix my car wingmirror, they couldn't fix it, they charged me 50 euros for the hour of work for nothing, and on top of that they broke another part in the car, when I spoke about the loose part they told me that they didn't have the tape to glue the piece! Therefore.. I will never go back to that place!, I do not recommend to anyone! Bad job! Lack of professionalism.

  • Maire

The day before my NCT a light came up on my dashboard, I brought it to two other mechanics who could not fix the problem. No word of a lie , Fred is an unbelievable mechanic and a life saver ! within 10 mins he had diagnosed the problem and fit my car in that day for the repairs. It meant so much as I had taken the day off work to be able to go for the test which passed thanks to all in Auto care !

  • Marissa O'B

10/10 for service, got a blow out in the middle of town and of course I didn't know how to change a tyre. The owner couldn't have been more helpful, he put my spair on as he didn't have the exact tyre I needed he also changed two lights for me. Very reasonable price too. I live in clondalkin so this place is quite out of the way but I will definitely go back if I run in to any issues. Thanks again.

  • Gajendra Shrestha

On the website they said they charge best and fairest price possible. The guy charged me 20 euro for changing parking bulb which cost less then 1 euro and cost him less than 2 minute to replace. I wonder was that a fair price? Should have done myself but won't be back for any kind of motor needs even its in my way to work.

  • Stephen Corbally

  • Darren Whelan

I havent been here, but I called ahead to have some parts fitted (self supplied parts) which was reasonably-ish priced but they are out the door with work, cant look at my car until next week. No good for me as I have my test next week. Ah well onto the next one :) thankyou for your time.

  • Will Casey

Aligned and fixed my cinquecento headlights that were lhd and it passed nct first time. Mechanic Fred from Milan is a magician as I went to two other places around the corner and they told me they couldn't help me. This place is defo my go to for ncts pretest service. Thank you Fred.

  • macdara ó béarra

This mechanic is a disgrace. I had a problem with my exhaust and got quoted €530 to fix it. Also he charged me €80 to put it up on a ramp. I went to my local mechanic and got the problem fixed for €40. Not to be trusted. Don’t waste your time going. Absolute disgrace! Cowboys

  • Fergus McCafferty

I called here yesterday morning as the car needed an oil change. Despite not having an appointment it was done same day. The price quoted was the price charged. Owner couldn't have been better to deal with. Will definitely be going back and would definitely recommend.

  • Ailish O'C

Really nice guys! Broke down going on for 6pm so thought it might be hard to find a place. They took it in (no problem at all) overnight and was ready to go by lunchtime the following day. Called to agree price before work completed. I will be back!

Expert Staff. Went there for headlight alignment and got if done for €20 where other shops couldn't do what needed to be done and suggesting that I replace the lights quoting me €100 in labour only. 5 stars

Very good experience with this Garage. Had a flat tyre and called in to have it sorted. Did the job in less than 30 mins. Reasonable price too. It's a plus that they open until 9pm. Would highly recommend.
