Disappointed. Won't be going back. – See my review for "John & Corky's"--not sure why this business has two names. In my situation, they failed to fix a "check engine" light, gave me a new battery I didn't need, failed to reset the car's computer properly and let me drive off anyway, and then failed to honor the warranty on the battery. I feel like the warranty was misrepresented to me. The rest of it isn't so much any type of dishonesty as much as it was much a lack of diagnostic skill. I still give them an overall average,... read more

A word of thanks – When I first moved to Austin a couple of years ago my daughter told me about J&C. At first I thought that she had to be exaggerating until I actually put them to the test. My brakes were making noise so I took my Avalon in to have them replaced and get an oil change. They immediately pulled the wheels and called me into the shop. They showed me that my brakes still had plenty of life left and the noise was not uncommon on Toyotas. Now, about the oil change. They didn't realize that I brought my own oil (Mo... read more

Choose alternate Automotive Mechanic – Upon research of Automotive Techs, I chose this business to install an AEM Cold Air Intake in my 350z. I called to ask how much it would cost and was given an estimated price. I decided to think about it for a couple of days and then called back to set up an appointment. The gentleman on the phone set up an appointment for me at 1:00 for the next day. I drove from South Austin to Round Rock to have them install it on my lunch break, and to my amazement was told that they couldn't get to... read more

Won't take my car anywhere else. – I am a mechanic working in a dealership and I bring my car to JC Auto Spec. Basically, I won't let anyone but these guys touch my FD! Finding parts for my car isn't always easy, especially since I like to keep it as stock as possible. Dan always seems to find parts for my car, and tries to get me the best value for my buck. John does exceptional work, and leaves no evidence under the hood. Thanks for years of excellent service, guys. :) <name withheld so I don't get in trouble with my boss!... read more

Honest and Experts on Rotaries – I was trying to get my 1984 RX-7 to pass emissions inspection (It had failed twice as I was following advice from other "mechanics"). I had been asking around but did not trust anyone playing with my baby (The guys where I did the inspection were charging me about $100 just to tell me what the problem was - but they were not even sure). I went to the mazda dealer and asked for guidance - again dealers don't believe in helping you unless you pay upfront... I was told by the local RX-7 club abo... read more

Good old-fashioned service – We've been taking our cars to John for years. Now that he has launched into his own shop, and brought in Dan to handle the "front of house", we give JC Auto Specialists all our work and recomend them to anyone who is looking for a friendly, honest, and - how can I put it - "good old-fashioned" mechanic. But old-fashioned only in the work ethic - all the shop equipment is extremely modern and up-to-date. These are guys you can trust to do the right thing. We recently had some work done on our agin... read more

High quality work, at prices way below the dealerships. The best place to go for non-warranty work. The best Miata mechanics in the area.

It's rare to find a honest auto-shop, but I did! – I'm glad I got a second opinion. It saved me hundreds of dollars and unnecessary work on my car. Thanks to Dan, who offered trustworthy advice and knowledge. I'm grateful that can officially say, I will be back ........and I will tell everyone there is a HONEST auto-shop that offers clear explanations and great customer service. Thank you again JC automotive

Great knowlege on car and great service – Recently I took my car to JC based on excellent reviews. The car would start but die immediately. JC had it fixed for less than $100 for diagnosis, parts and labor, a job would easily cost $200 - $300 else where.
