"I can’t speak highly enough of the quality of service, honesty, and pure professionalism the guys at OTS provide"
"I chose to use OTS for a 30,000 maintenance check after being referred by my son, who got to know the folks at OTS as part of his auto parts route"

Good mechanics are hard to come by, and when you drive your car like its the last lap of the indie 500 like me and your auto repairs tools consist of zip ties duck tape and a hammer, then you'll certainly need one. Now while those tools are certainly adequate, some things require a more, professional touch. Enter OTS, these guys now what they are doing, and for me thats golden. The prices are good, they are crystal clear on what they are doing and they never try to up-sell you, they diagnose accurately and fix the issue plain and simple. They have been around a while, and after seeing the work and the result its obvious they will be around for many years to come. My car at the time of this review in for a new transmission, i called them explained my cars F#$%&@ and the issues it was having, they found me a good used transmission and quoted me FAR less than i was expecting. I will be using them again in the future for sure.
I can’t speak highly enough of the quality of service, honesty, and pure professionalism the guys at OTS provide. What’s great about OTS is they will tell you what’s going on and give you options, and tell you straight up if you don’t really need to get it repaired right away, and if you can let it go. They don’t push customers into getting something fixed. On top of providing quality guidance, their prices are far lower than any other shop around. They worked on both my vehicles for the last decade, from tune ups, to air conditioners, to fuel tanks / injection systems. Recently I had an issue where my transmission fluid leaked out after a change, took it back to them, they fixed it at no extra charge. And, for the record, that’s the only time I’ve ever had an issue following them working on my vehicle after a full decade of service. Seriously, these are mechanics and business owners you can honestly trust.
I chose to use OTS for a 30,000 maintenance check after being referred by my son, who got to know the folks at OTS as part of his auto parts route. I was very pleased with their work. I was even more pleased that I didn't have to endure a call from some service advisor trying to sell me a bunch of stuff I didn't need. James , the owner, was very straightforward, and there were no surprises. It's hard to find people you can trust in any industry these days, but the automotive sector is notorious for working customers over, and after meeting James and Rob at OTS, I had absolutely no concerns. Thanks to everyone at OTS for restoring my faith in the automotive maintenance industry and more so in humanity.
As always it was a pleasure to have an appointment at OTS. While the mechanic was changing my oil he noticed a gasket ( I'm not using the right wording here) is wearing on my transmission. James checked it out and let me know it will need to be replaced in about 9 months. I feel so secure in my 2005 Nisson because I know the experts at OTS are doing their best to keep it up and running safely. Its always fun chatting with James, Bob and anyone else available. We discussed health and exercise this time! I love the Experts at OTS!! Plus the oil change took about 10 minutes.
Have been a many time repeat customer and will continue to come back. We have an older vehicle that is just in one of those places in it's life that it needs a good part replacement once or twice a year as a new part breaks. These guys have been honest, upfront, and straight forward with me since day one - and it's been over 5 years. Never had any issues with them or the work they have done on any car. Really couldn't be happier with the work that they have done and how well they have taken care of all of our cars. Highly recommended.
I never write reviews, but the guys at this shop are awesome so I had to! When my car suddenly stopped, I wasn't really sure what was going on. And as a woman, anytime I have car troubles I have some concern about if I'm getting a fair price or, if the information I'm receiving at an auto shop is correct. And at OTS I never felt uncomfortable or like they were trying to "pull one over" on me. The work was fast and effective, the pricing was more than fair, and the customer service was amazing! 10/10 recommend!
☆James and his crew at OTS Auto Repair is a top notch, honest and knowledgeable auto repair shop. James is straight up and will tell you what needs to be fixed and he will price the repairs fairly. The shop and the yard in front is always full of vehicles and they fix them quickly. They work on all makes and models, foreign or domestic and luxury cars as well. They are one of the most dependable shops that I have found in or around Austin, Texas. Five stars for James and his rock star team ! ☆☆☆☆☆ WB
from scheduling to completed repairs, OTS is a 10. They replaced my catalytic converter. Prompt service and a fair price. They provided diagnostic proof that the converter was failing. OTS also take the time to provide real usable advice. OTS also did an overall check of my vehicle (not requested by me), found a couple of non critical items that could be repaired but indicated "if it does not need fixing, don't" unless it is critical. It is hard to find honest businesses, this one is a keeper !
Im not usually one to write reviews, but I have to say these guys were outstanding. I was running into issues with a dealer I was purchasing a used car from, but these guys took care of the vehicle and worked with me to achieve the best possible outcome. Super strong customer service and communication, willingness to work with me on timeframe, and very knowledgeable about my BMW. I would recommend them to anyone that needs a solid mechanic. Will definitely use them again.
OTS hasn't done me wrong yet! My only real issue is that everywhere is so busy nowadays, it is hard to get an appointment sometimes and of course I moved here from Nashville, where all my labor was free! So, the retail side hit me kind of hard but I feel their pricing is fair and I haven't had any issues with the quality thus far, and I have had A LOT of work done! Until they do me wrong, I plan on returning with more future work for my 1993 Chevy S-10.
Thanks again to all the masters at OTS auto repair, they recently finished helping me build my race car, going from 300 horsepower stock to over 600whp. All in the time of about a week total. Nothing but exceptional customer service and always doing top of the line work. I wouldn't take my vehicles to any other shop. I reccomend them to family friends and aquantinces in a heart beat. Thanks for your great service and customer support.
WE ARE FROM TEXAS AUTOPLEX HERE IN AUSTIN TEXAS, AND WE DO MOSTLY ALL OF OUR WORK WITH THESE GUYS. FROM OUR MERCEDES AND BMW TO OUR CLASSIC CARS TO OUR NORMAL CARS. THESE GUYS ARE MASTER MECHANICS AND WELL GET THE JOB DONE RIGHT THE FIRST TIME. NEVER THINK TWICE ABOUT GOING TO OTS, JAMES,ROBERT AND THE WHOLE CREW ARE ALL GREAT PEOPLE AND GET YOUR CAR FIXED RIGHT. BY FAR WE BELIEVE THE BEST IN AUSTIN TEXAS IS OTS AUTO REPAIR.
Can't rave enough about these dudes. I shop around a lot since I drive an old beater. Every person I've talked to here has been nothing but honest and they have no qualms about sending you to another business if they can do a better job at specific things. When they work on your car, they do it right the first time. I always come here first and will do so for all of my cars. Such a breath of fresh air in the industry!
Desperate to fix the AC to my vehicle I came upon OTS after contacting several auto shops. The were able to squeeze me in and fixed my AC as well as a windshield wiper fluid leak. James was awesome with communicating with me in a breakdown text of the issues and cost. Had my vehicle back in two days. I can't thank them enough for helping me out. I'll definitely recommend this shop to anyone.
This is a really awesome Repair Shop. They will not charge you for unnecessary repairs. They would instead help and guide you. They would try to give you the optimum solution even if it means they are not making money by helping you. This the best Auto Repair shop to take one's car to if you value your car and want honest diagnosis and service. Kudos, guys.
Affordable, honest, friendly and fast. This is my third time back to this place and they’ve done a good job so far, no complaints. I’ve called many other mechanics and they’ll just try to take you for a joyride, but OTS won’t. I’ve had my sway bar bushings and spark plugs replaced and very satisfied. Thanks again!
Have always brought my cars here for repairs. Cant say how nice the crew is there. Brian the service Advisor was very polite and kept me updated on the status of my vehicle. James and Robert are both honest and very fair on their rates. Best place ever for automotive repairs!!
This is a wonderful shop, everyone that works there is super friendly and incredibly helpful. Reasonable rates and tremendous work, anytime I bring my vehicle in they never disappoint. The best shop in Austin, hands down. Recommending whoever I can to these guys.
This shop is the bees knees. James is cool and his technician was cool too! They fixed the problem with my car in one go when the other big name shop couldn’t in two. They also did it for $200 cheaper than what the other shop quoted. My new mechanic for sure
The only repair shop I’ll ever use in Austin! Top notch and efficient service all the way. I have an older jeep with a bit of wear and tear and they have managed to have me fixed up and on the road in less than 24 hours both times I’ve need something fixed!
Honest, reliable, very knowledgeable and timely. My 2005 Nissan Sentra is still trucking along due to the excellent diagnosticians and repairs she has had done at OTS. I just cannot say enough of awesome each repair has been. Great Raves to ya'll at OTS!!
Sadly service has diminished from the previous time using OTS. Cannot even get a reasonable valid quote without being given a hard time by someone who appears to have animosity at needing to give a customer a call back. That's the point of voice mail...
OTS is the best place I've ever been to have my truck worked on. They will not do you wrong and try to get you to pay for things that really don't need to be done. Friendliest guys. I've been going to them for a long time.
OTS was really amazing! My friend referred them to me and they were honest and was able to fix my car in a day. They even went the extra mile fixing the cable to open the hood for no extra charge. I HIGHLY recommend them.
This time it was an oil change for my 2015 Mercedes, but I have had used them exclusively for the last 5 years for multiple cars. They are honest, trustworthy, knowledgable, and provide great service at great prices.
Great little place! And super affordable oil change and quick too. I paid less than 30 dollars for my car which requires extra oil and an XL filter. Definitely coming back. oh yeah and they have a shop pig.
Pre-trip inspection was a total bust. Not 24 hours later my battery died. They did a great job with my oil change and the owner was easy to speak with but with the issues, I’ll not be going back. …
This is the only place in Austin where I'll take my car. The mechanics here are knowledgeable, friendly, fast and fair. The waiting room is clean (wiped down during COVID, too) and cozy.
Outrageous prices, quoted me $350+ (3 hours) for a simple resonator delete. Everywhere else is less than an hour and under $100. Save yourself some time and money and go somewhere else.
James and the guys at OTS are the best! Fair, honest, and they stand behind their work. I have been using them for years. I have always been satisfied. Can't say enough good about them.
Best In The Business! The BEST HONEST MECHANICS YOU WILL FIND IN TEXAS! James and his team are beyond reproach in all categories! Especially integrity HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
I have a tip for anyone reading this feedback: Always go with professionals. These guys are awesome. James and Robert are 2 of the best vehicle experts I’ve ever seen.
Best auto repair shop that we have ever been to. James and his crew are honest, knowledgable and just plain great people. We will be going to them for years to come!
I never have had a problem.. I go with their recommendations .. they stand behind there work and have always worked with me ..very simply put I trust them .
My sister's and I broke down and had it towed to James on Monday and he fixed the truck by the next day. Thank you James for saving our vacation to Austin.
Great service! They really care about the customer!!! GREAT SERVICE LIKE THIS IS VERY HARD TO FIND NOW DAYS. They just got a customer for life. THE BEST!!!
Wife's car has a bent lug nut stud, they had the car in and out in a timely manner. Staff was all very friendly and the place looked neat and professional
James and his team helped me quickly check out my car and were very accommodating and helpful. We would definitely go here again if we have an auto issue!
Great service at a very fair price. These days it is hard to find an honest mechanic OTS is honest and very transparent about work that needs to be done.
*Spoiler Alert: DOES NOT DO MOTORCYCLE OR SCOOTER TIRE REPAIR....!!!!!! Google Maps sent me this location as an option too... Have a great day... …
Great service. The mechanics work cheaply and do good work. As long as I am In Austin I will go here for my repairs and maintenance. James is awesome.
They have always informed me of everything that is needed, provided what was critical to complete and a plan on when i should have things repaired.
They were fast, had amazing communication, identified the problems with my car and everything is running great now. Will def use them again.
This is the only place I trust and constantly recommend. And, I'm not just saying that because I'm bringing my truck in in the monring.
I have these guys work on my truck and they do a great job! I've got 275k and counting, brakes, suspension, motor, AC, they do it all
OTS Auto Repair is honest, kind, thorough, and very reasonably priced. I trust him with any recommendation he makes for my car.
They could have taken me for a ride, but were honest instead. If I ever need anything repaired, I'm going straight to them.
These guys are totally awesome! Honest and fair pricing. Get a number cause they are very busy because of their reputation.
Best shop I’ve EVER dealt with. Honest and reasonable every time I’ve been there. Can’t say enough good things about them.
