Sid's Auto Repair Inc

As a woman, I always feel a bit nervous about going to a new mechanic because I am worried about being scammed (it's happened before). However, my friend recommended Sid's and I am SO grateful that I trusted their recommendation. The guys are very considerate and kind, and the prices are more than fair! They have CONSISTENTLY gone above and beyond to help me with my car. If you need a mechanic, go to Sid's!

I was looking for a place to put air in my tires (long story) & I made an appointment for an estimate on my muffler & possibly, another problem. I read reviews about Sids, so hopefully, after my car goes in, I won't faint! I believe his name was Chris, at the counter, he was very understanding & great customer service!

As someone said 5 months ago. Same for us. We were quoted a number.brought vehicle in. They did the work then the price was jumped up by 100$ then argued about it. Not professional. Will never do business there again.

I made the huge mistake of leaving my family, friends and home here in Bay View to buy north of here move my kids to the country after the death of their sweet uncle to the first batch of fentanyl laced heroin in 2006. You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone After 17 years we are fleeing the grossly corrupt small town politics to get back home to Bay View with my tail between my legs. I needed help getting a trailer hitch assembly installed onto my van so I can rent a trailer immediately! Who can afford $1 a mile for a U-Haul truck on top of all the other fees? The quotes we got were all over the place so out of desperation I had the parts delivered directly and my boys and I spent hours trying to install it myself. Embarrassingly realizing Wisconsin’s salty roads had messed up the pre-made holes in the frame and there was zero chance I could do this without much better tools and knowledge I started frantically calling around racing against the clock. It’s not easy to get in somewhere fast with a botched job. I was so lucky to find Sids place on KK. Having known the family that built this place decades ago the location caught my eye. Im so glad I called them. Legit the best mechanic Ive dealt with in years! They treated me and the family I brought with me like we’d known them for decades. Chris, the front desk guy grabbed the mechanic who was thoughtful enough to call me back so I wouldn’t be stuck there waiting for him to have time after his current job. Not only did we have a great time once there chatting with all the staff, but they even started trouble shooting how to help our friend with a totally off topic issue. I noticed Chris knew every client that walked in that door by name AND treated them just as considerately. And Adam—great handshake and did such a great job with this task! He made sure to explain things to me (not mansplaining either!)and charged a very fair price…which I really appreciate because I talked enough about my life they could have seen a chance to up charge rather than use their own reasoning to underhand how broke I now actually am! I truly don’t know what I would have done without these guys and will be back for sure!! When leaving I noticed a novelty item I had in my childhood in their office and Chris must have seen my jaw drop because he gave it to me!! He couldn’t have known what this meant to me and why. There are few towns in this county with people like us, folks. Having true character and skill like these guys have is what has made this area so amazing. Im so glad I saw the review about Adam rushing to help rescue a toddler locked in someone’s car and called these guys right away. Hopefully this review also opens the path for more people to find their way into this shop. They deserve your business!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

My truck needed work. I dropped it off and was quoted 550. I went to pick it up and they told me 750. I told him about my original quote. Then he said he'd re-crunch the numbers and said 650. Sure, that's fine. I asked, what happened to cause the increase in price?, he didn't have an answer. He "crunched" the numbers again and said 600. This guy was making up numbers right in front of me. Zero merit. Just wanted to see how much he could get out of me. I don't trust this place. Never went back.

Came in unexpectedly due break and my muffler decided to dangle while I was out driving. Service was excellent and was in a timely manner even if it was at a last minute notice. Couldn't recommend them enough for their honesty and assistance! Thank you!

Honest fast and fair! Sid’s is a great place to have your vehicle worked on. Friendly and knowledgeable staff that won’t try and make you do things you might not need to do right away. If you live in the area definitely take your car here and if you don’t live around here you should consider it!

Jan 07, 2024

Someone stole the wheel off my car (yes really- didn't even know this was a thing) and I had heard good things about Sid's from several friends and thought I'd give them a try. I'm satisfied with the service and price- THANK you. Chris is is an exceptionally kind service coordinator. Thanks for the good vibes through a stressful situation! Would definitely return to Sid's for service.

This is the place I go to when I need my car fixed. They have been fair and honest with me every time.

Did repair on car but didn't fix the main problem

Dec 07, 2023

Gave me a ride home in the 99 degree weather.

I took my car in for an alignment, they said they couldn’t do it until I replace my control arm( which was a month old) 6 mos later. I bought the part and asked them if they could put them in, they called me and said it’s not necessary right now to replace the control arm, however they suggested replacing a different sway bar link and bushing this time.(which was also just replaced!) so I told them to just do the alignment, since that is no longer a problem. When I picked up my car I immediately noticed my my wipers and blinkers no longer worked! I went back inside and with a smirk Sid told me he had nothing to do with it, and there was a problem with my blinkers blinking funny! Oh so he must have seen the blinker working, but now they do not! they do nothing! This happened while in his shop.

They do great work and are always honest about the process. You can trust this place.

We have been going to the same mechanic for over 15. When our vehicle recently broke down he wasn't available. I googled mechanics near m ed and saw this one, read reviews and saw he was in business for over 10 years. So we called him, he got us in fairly quickly. Fixed our vehicle sooner than expected. Very nice man. I think we will start going here for future repairs. Seems like someone we can really trust which is hard to find these days.

$95 to put on ONE new tire. That's not including the tire, only to put it on the rim. That's more than the dealership pricing. Sid's said they were having trouble getting it on and were just glad they didn't break it. Brett's in wauwatosa charged half that price for the exact same service last time I had a flat on the same car. Ask for upfront pricing.

2nd time I brought my vehicle to Sid's. Both experiencing have been great! They are knowledgeable, friendly, fast and all around good people. I had my ball bearings replaced, front alignment, oil change and AC check / fill up. My car is running good a new again :) I would recommend them to everyone!

Dec 07, 2023

Can't say enough about Sid's auto repair! My dealer said I needed brakes right away amd gave me a price quote. The team at Sid's had 2 mechanics check my car and said brakes could wait a few oil changes. I was blown away with the service!

Dec 07, 2023

Get your emissions checked here! Really nice people!

Dec 07, 2023

Dec 07, 2023

They were nice and honest :)

Went to Sid’s to get a car I recently purchased checked out. I knew it was a rough car, and just wanted to get some stuff squared away. Chris Z. who works here really helped me out. He told me straight up how the car was honestly too rough to repair anything and it would be unsafe to drive. It was nice to hear this info with no sugar coating and with honest regret to inform me how bad it was. Chris also was real kind and personable and stated he would be more than happy to help me find a car that was actually safe to drive in the future. It’s always great to have honest, kind, and personable people who ease your worry and will actually provide useful help for the future. Highly recommend Sid’s for anyone in BV and MKE looking for a local mechanic with great service!

I was out of town and stopped at Sid's for a concern with my tires. I didn't expect to be taken care of right away and I'm sure that's not always the case but the repairman did. Very helpful and I really appreciated it.

My headlight bulb went out last night, and the auto parts store was unable to change it for me. Three mechanics later, because they didn't have an opening, Sids was recommended, and they were awesome. Got the new bulb replaced in a few minutes, and didn't even charge me. Also noticed I had a low tire pressure light on, and filled those up for free as well. If this is how they treat new walk-in guests I definitely think I've found a new mechanic! Thanks so much!

Dec 07, 2022

No emission test

Dec 07, 2022

Sids is the best. Had my brakes checked and they are honest enough not to sell me brakes I didn’t need.

Dec 07, 2022

The mechanic explains in detail, without me having to ask, exactly what is going on with my car and what my options are. I am never pressured to have work done that isn't necessary and I feel like I get an accurate assessment and very fair prices. Everyone there is friendly and easy to talk to.
