Since 1988, our ASE-certified technicians have provided complete auto maintenance and repair for drivers throughout Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks, and the surrounding Conejo Valley.

Whether your vehicle is due for scheduled maintenance, needs a repair, has a warning light, or simply isn't driving the way it normally does, we'll take the time to determine what it needs and explain our recommendations.

Because we specialize in Japanese vehicles, we're familiar with the maintenance requirements, systems, and common concerns found in the makes we work on every day.

Preventive Maintenance

Regular maintenance is one of the best ways to protect your vehicle and help prevent unexpected problems. Rather than relying on generic mileage intervals, we consider your vehicle's manufacturer recommendations, mileage, service history, and current condition when helping you determine what maintenance is due.

Depending on your vehicle, maintenance may include oil and filter services, fluid services, filters, spark plugs, belts, brakes, tires, and other scheduled items.

Our goal is to help you stay on top of the maintenance your vehicle actually needs and plan ahead for services that may be coming up.

Auto Repair and Diagnostics

When your vehicle has a problem, properly identifying the cause is an important part of repairing it correctly.

Our technicians diagnose and repair a wide range of mechanical and electrical concerns, including Check Engine Lights, starting and charging problems, drivability concerns, brake problems, steering and suspension issues, cooling system problems, electrical concerns, and other mechanical issues.

We use diagnostic equipment, hands-on testing, technical information, and our experience with Japanese vehicles to determine what's causing the problem before recommending a repair.

Thorough Digital Vehicle Inspections

An important part of taking care of your vehicle is knowing its overall condition, not just addressing the reason it came into the shop.

Our digital vehicle inspections document what our technicians find with photos, notes, measurements, and recommendations. Your inspection is emailed and/or texted directly to you, allowing you to see much of what we're seeing in the shop.

The inspection helps identify what's in good condition, what may need attention in the future, and what needs attention now. Just as importantly, it helps us keep track of your vehicle over time so you can prioritize maintenance and repairs and plan ahead.
