Garagista Auto Service

Victor is the man! He replaced my evaporator coil (had to removed entire dash) on my 2017 BMW 540 very professionally and at a good price. I was nervous about my entire dash and console being put back with no shakes or rattles...but when he was complete, the car felt just as solid as the day I bought it. Will definitely take ALL my car repairs there.

As of the past two years this is the only place I trust my vehicles to be serviced with the care and knowledge that would be expected from a dealership mechanic servicing his own mother's car.

Victor is a gem of a mechanic! His honesty, professionalism, and speedy work truly impressed us. He kept us well-informed throughout the entire process, and the results are nothing short of amazing. Our vintage Piaggio Ape is now fixed, all thanks to Victor's fantastic skills. Recommending him is a pleasure – five stars without a doubt!

Victor was absolutely amazing! He was a lifesaver. We own a Piaggio Ape that we converted into a cute mobile bar, and unfortunately, the engine was dead. We took our little bar to his shop, and he fixed it! We can't thank you enough, Victor. We are so happy with the results. You brought our little Ape to life, and we will be forever grateful!

Timing chain slipped on my Mercedes and bent 8 valves. Victor repaired the head and replaced the timing chain. Two months and 2000 miles later and it still runs great. Fair price and I couldn't be happier.

Very knowledgeable guy! I’m glad I came here. My AC in my car stopped working and he had my car good and ready to go in less than an hour. Very reasonable pricing too. He has a lot of experience and is very nice.

After having had my car repaired at a place of my insurance company's choosing, there were some issues. I tried one shop in the area that wanted WAY too much. After a short search in the area, I found Garagista. Victor listened as I let him know what had been done on my car in the past and the diagnosis from the other shop that was too expensive. Not only was Victor's price MUCH better, we were able to set a tentative time to have the car repaired when the parts came in. I put half down to cover the parts and the other half was due on receipt of the car. He not only solved the problem that I was having, but replaced the parts and even stayed later after closing to complete the job and give the car a test drive. Garagista is now my #1 choice when it comes to car repair. Victor is kind, and straightforward, and also very responsive when you have questions. This is an A+ shop! Thank you, Victor!

I almost gave up on my older model vehicle but a great friend recommended Victor to me. My Transmission was blown and I needed a new one along with other things to help my car run safely. He was kind and patient with me and reassured me that he could get it back to running again. I got my car back in 2 weeks and it runs great. I am so happy to have found him. Will definitely recommend to my family and friends. 🤗🔧🔩

I went there yesterday afternoon because my car door latch broke. I got there after 5:30pm when they were about to close but received a warm welcome. He inspected the vehicle and told me to leave it behind that he would take care of it. Indeed he did just that, he did some research and found out that there was a recall on on the car for the problem to be solved for free. Honestly it could have went differently. Honest people are hard to find and I am grateful I found my mechanic. L Compaore

Vic knows his stuff and gives great service and advice. Good guy all around.

Victor is an extremely knowledgeable tech. He was able to reset the ECU on my 2017 LR Range Rover TD6 after cleaning the DEF valve which the dealership wanted $2600 to do. He is super personable and and willing to help without question. I highly recommend his service.

Victor was literally an angel for me! He fixed my ac quickly and efficiently costing Hundreds of dollars less than any other shops! I am so pleased with the work and customer service I received here. The only shop I will ever take my car to. HIGHLY Recommended

Absolutely top-notch paint and body work from Victor. This man cares about his work and takes the time to do it right. People trust him with high caliber vehicles, and after seeing the work he has done for me and others I can see why.

Muy buen servicio.

The shop is owned and operated by Victor. I like to have a personal bond with my mechanic, that's why I chose a smaller shop and I definitely found that communication with Victor. I asked to be there under the car with him and he explained throughout the process. He is neat, will be visiting him whenever I'm in Houston.

Victor has provided me great automotive services for many years. His integrity and honesty are excellent. Highly recommend his services.

Victor is very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained so clearly what the problem was with my vehicle. I'll for sure come back for any maintenance or future repairs.

Nov 27, 2020

I’m so glad i found this place! Victor is very helpful and reliable. Just tell him what you need, and he will help you. Excellent customer service, honest and professional work. Leave a missed call and he will even take the time to call you back. Highly recommend!

Excellent service! I came in for an oil change and was very pleased. Victor is a very knowledgeable and experienced mechanic. I will definitely use him again. He is personable and professional and his prices are honest and affordable. I highly recommend Victor!

I have an older BMW and It needed work on the suspension, driver side door, motor mounts and help figuring out some very loud vibrations during idle and at certain speeds. It took Victor very little time to figure it out and inform me what was happening and the repairs did not take long. He also showed me all the old parts he replaced and why it was important to do so. I had been looking for awhile to get these repairs done and I am certain I would have ended up paying a lot more had I gone somewhere else. Victor has been very reasonable each time I've gone to him, he's answered my questions and I trust what he says.

Nov 27, 2019

I was referred here by a friend. The mechanic, Victor, was extremely knowledgeable about what was happening with my car. He worked with me to obtain the right part for my 10 year old car and was able to quickly remedy the issue at a very reasonable cost. I also thought Victor did an excellent job of explaining each step of the process to me in a way that I understood (as I am not a car person), he was kind and very personable. I will now use this app exclusively for all of my repairs and have already referred a customer to him within one day of picking my car up!

The guys at Garagista did an amazing job with my 2016 Range Rover. He did the 35k mile service at great price with fast service, better than the dealer! He is very professional and treats his customers and their cars with respect! Definitely recommend!

Nov 27, 2018

A friend recommended I take my VW Toureg to Victor at Garagista Auto Service, and I am so happy that I did. He did a great job, and has a high attention to detail. In addition to doing mechanical work, he painted my hood, and it looks like new! Truly a great find for people that love their car!

Nov 27, 2018

Amazing service, really takes care of the customer. Honest and trustworthy mechanic, ask for Victor.

Nov 27, 2018
