Best auto shop in the world I would highly recommend it
We broke down in Lafayette on our way to TN from Chicago to say goodbye to our dying grandmother (with a 1 year old on board). The guys at Elston were able to diagnose what was wrong with our car and didn't charge us a penny despite the fact that we were unable to have them do the repairs because of warranty coverage. We had a great experience with them and would recommend them highly to anyone having car troubles in the area!
Run! Hide your vehicle! Without getting into the long and boring details of my horrible experience with these "mechanics" (I put this in quotations because every time I actually showed up at the shop it was only staffed by some kid who was definitely not certified in anything) I can tell you that it involves a three week wait time for a job that involved a starter, flywheel, tapping a bell housing, and dropping a transmission twice. I had to fight tooth and nail to get them to return my truck four days after they said it wou... read more
Recently I noticed some drive belt noise when driving my car, and one of my friends told me this place where he got his alternator replaced and he thought it was reasonable priced. So I drove my car here. They checked it and quote me $400+ to fix the problem. This includes removing the tensioner, and they estimate to be 1 hour labor. Definitely crazy - everyone knows this would only take less than 30min. I said I need some time to make a decision; and when I checked out 30min later, they charged me for this 30min as labor.

Fair deal! Jay knows what he is doing. He never charges a penny more than fair price. He also let you know all the available option that are available rather than being greedy!
Will never go again – I strongly recommend that you do not go here. I had my car towed to their garage to have my starter fixed. My dad, a self-taught backyard mechanic who unfortunately lives in a different state, can replace a starter in 30 minutes or less. Elston Auto, a "professional" mechanic, charged me 1.2 hours in labor for replacing the starter. I am convinced that only someone reading step by step instructions from google would take that much time, not someone who repairs cars for a living. Not only did they take t... read more
Great service – I would go back again and would reccomend them to others. Very good work and honest!
Best auto repair shop in Lafayette! – I have to say, that I would take my vehicle back to Elston's over and over again. I have a discount at McCord's because of where I work and will never step foot in there ever again. They knew I had an issue with my ABS system when they replaced my brakes and they neglected to relay that information either because they caused the issue or didn't want to bother with replacing it. McCord's made me feel as if they were 'bothered' by me bringing in my vehicle for a simple brake job and tried ... read more
TRUSTED LAFAYETTE AUTO REPAIR!! – I'm a student at purdue away from home, and my car has broken down twice - Elston was able to repair it in a matter of days on both occasions. The service is friendly, quick, and reliable. They are better than my shop back home that I've trusted. They have state of the art technology for the electrical problems my car had. They also provided towing for a cheaper rate than the competition. Highly recommended!
