Daniel and his staff are the best people, mechanics and all around good guys you'll find anywhere! I have been going to "By the Book" for over 13 years. We've never had a complaint with the work they perform. I've recommended to many friends and family the shop and they have been loyal customers also. I can't say enough about this place. Daniel makes you feel like a family member whenever we have any work done, and the thing is he is sincere about his caring for his customers. Can't say enough good things about "By the Book".

This company has never failed me. ALWAYS has been honest and straightforward good or bad news. Daniel has serviced our vehicles for about 3 years now. Great feeling of confidence knowing my vehicle is road trip ready and worthy. I recommend him to all my friends and family.

Very trustworthy and exceptional people. Provide quality work that you can be confident in. I would recommend them to anyone and will continue to use them for my auto needs as they occur. A+ recommendation

After 2 misdiagnoses from two other area mechanics, my auto repair journey led me to this shop. I cannot recommend these guys enough. Staff was knowledgeable and inclusive with their knowledge, fixed issues the previous mechanics contributed to, and kept me informed throughout the process. The best part was that the price was right. Is it wrong to say I can't wait for car repairs so I can come back to this place?! My car runs reliably for the first time in weeks so hopefully it's a long while before I troubles again, but should repairs need to be made, I'm returning here without hesitation.

These guys bailed me out of a bad situation. I was traveling through ABQ and my truck died on I-25 last Monday. Other shops were a month out on repairs and said to call By The Book Diesel. I got Brandon on the phone and he said to bring it over, they would get it in for me that evening or the next morning. I got lucky and AAA got to me in 20 min - I know, amazing. We dropped the truck off and they got it in the next morning, diagnosed it and got the new pump ordered. I had them do expedited shipping - which really wasn’t expensive at all. The pump came in Wednesday mid morning and they had my truck back together that afternoon by 4:00. Brandon kept me in the loop on everything. Everyone I met was upright and friendly. I can’t say enough good about this shop. I have been a mechanic myself for close to 35 years and was amazed at how well set up and clean their shop is. You can’t go wrong with these guys! This is what a CP3 looks like after it has rattled 4 of the 6 assembly bolts out.

I'm so happy with the major work that I had done. One ton dodge dually needed some loving. By the book installed a whole new rear axles and several items in the engine compartment. My first test drive was 917 miles pulling a trailer the truck performed flawlessly.

Brandon and the team at By the Book Diesal are professional and experienced. After being turned away from Mercedes Benz of Albq. W my 2010 sprinter……. (After 40 years of owning Mercedes, it was the worst experience w a Mercedes Benz dealership ever.) …..Brandon, Dallas and the rest of the the team had me going with little or no problem. If you have a sprinter, you know how hard it is to find techs other than the shlops at MBZ of ALBQ. DO NOT believe the dealership for the required service times. Experienced techs at By the Book (like Dallas) will tell you that this van needs more attention than the dealer claims. Let By the Book service/repair your sprinter, and you will have a much better experience, pay less and have better techs working on your van. Thanks again guys. You are my ‘go to’ for this van.

Daniel and his team are great to work with. They took the time to diagnose and properly repair my Dodge"s transmission. Daniel is honest, pricing of work is a bargain for their quality of work is the best. I totally recommend "BY the Book Transmissions" for they have service for their clients down solid.

For the most part got done what I requested. Truck not smoking and has more power but is still experiencing what feels like lugging? Took it to a couple other places. Found a broken stand pipe. Was throwing a high pressure oil code. Got that repaired and is now throwing a low oil pressure code.

I gave them a call today about an exhaust leak. Turns out my vehicle was still under warranty which they found out for me rather than the dealer. They saved me some time and help direct me in the appropriate direction. Thanks "By the Book Diesel and Auto Repair"!

It's hard to find good experienced technicians who will not only tell you, but also send you the images from the issue they find. Glad to have come across his suggestion onYelp Review.

Love this place, staff, and their professionalism. I drive 40 miles just to get my vehicles fixed here! Thank you Daniel, Brandon, Dallas, and other staff for being my ride or die.

Dec 07, 2023

My experience with By The Book was the best. Not only do they fix any immediate problem but they include preventative maintenance which prolonged the service life of my vehicle. Incredibly persistant in diagnosing and correcting my vehicle problem. Done right the first time!

They've worked on my 2001 F350 7.3L and my 2001 F150. They're fast, honest, priced right and they tell you everything you need to know. They've always done a great job of walking me thru my options and giving me good advice, even when it doesn't benefit them. They're honest AND good at their job.

We were in Albuquerque on Vacation, for a week. Before heading back my engine light came on. I called dealerships on Monday, they were booked for weeks. When I called By The Book Auto Repair. They were able to work me in, with their busy schedule. They got my Rig up and running. Very honest and professional to say the least. Took the time to explain how to keep my F250 Superduty up and running. I would highly recommend this Garage to anyone in Albuquerque. Thanks again By The Book Auto and Diesel Repair.

Dealership failed to fix my Duramax Diesel properly, this caused my family and I to be stranded twice while traveling. I researched diesel repair shops in Albuquerque and was impressed by reviews for BY THE BOOK diesel and auto repair. I contacted Daniel and explained the situation, Daniel asked to keep the truck for 2 day so his team could thoroughly diagnose. Two days later I was contacted and told the truck was ready. The dealership replaced the incorrect part for the failure mode we experienced. Daniel and his team said the 9th injector was the root cause, I approved the repair and have delayed this review intentionally so I may tally some miles on the truck to verify operation.. 3,000 miles later my truck is still running like a champ. Thank you Daniel and your team of awesome diesel mechanics, you have earned a new customer not only for my diesel truck but also for my gasser daily drivers.
