These guys totally rock. They not only fixed my car and it's issues, they also cleaned it. Their customer service is the best. Very Attentive and very honest. You don't find many mechanics like these. I am definitely going here for all of my auto needs in the future.

Let’s tell it like it is. Car services are all about trust. Would or could you trust your second most important purchase of your life, to a complete stranger? Of course not. Most people treat their cars like family members and can you trust family to just any auto repair service? Well, you don’t have to worry about trusting these guys, they are the best. Whatever your car problem, CarScience can handle it. Great customer service, no bs, and nothing sold to you that you don’t need. Quick professional service, smog checks and even tires. CarScience is the place to take your car. No worries or hassles. Finally, a car repair, you can trust. Give David a call. He’s a great listener, and Mar is one of the worlds best automotive technicians. CarScience, the ONLY place to take your car. Auto service you can TRUST.

I have been coming to CSAR for years: repairs and SMOG services! From Honda, Fords and Volvos. Mar has always been professional and clear with repairs. Mar has also been servicing all my SMOG needs for all my cars. Drop in or by appointment Mar was always available. Looking for an honest shop, Car Science Auto Repair is your spot! Ask for Mar!!!

Since moving to California, we have used David's workshops a few times already. Very easy to work with and gives you very fair pricing upfront and goes out of his way to save you money on parts. Very trust worthy and we hope to use his workshop for all our services going forward.

I went here with no real expectations, I just needed someone to change the oil in my Macan because I didn't have the time to do it. Looking from the outside, it just looks like a beat up smog station, but to my surprise, the inside was actually cushy. Usually, when I let other mechanics do the oil change for my cars, I always worry that they just dump all of the oil that I hand to them into the engine (worse when there's no oil dipstick in the car). Luckily, this did not happen here, the engine was not overfilled. I also got my smog check done at the same time, since I needed one. Everything was done pretty quickly, without an appointment, I just drove over during my lunch break. Will definitely be back.

I LOVE CAR SCIENCE, DAVE AND HIS TEAM. Finding a good mechanic is hard, so to find a great team of mechanics is awesome. And best of all Dave the shop's owner is friendly, and HONEST, YES!! I SAID HONEST. I know that sounds too good to be true, but I swear it's true!! Make an appointment and find out for yourself, you won't be sorry

It went like this for me. I had taken the car to someone else for a sound in the car. They told me it was a loose engine mount and that i didn't need to fix it right away. Well, I can tell you that wasn't the case when I was on the side of the road 10 min from home. The car had overheated, blown hose and waterpump. I called Car Science like 2 min before close and David said he'd look at it first thing in the morning. He called me first thing in the morning and gave me the diagnosis. The fix was affordable compared to other places, but it was the attention to detail and follow up that made the difference. Now I go for everything, my vehicles are in good hands with David and his team! Plus the shop is the first I've been to where buy the chairs in the waiting room are really nice.

Dave and his team of mechanics at car science know their stuff. Friendly informative and always great service. Had these guys replace my clutch and they did a great job. Even recommended what should be done next. They’re usually pretty busy and I think that speaks for itself. Thanks to the team at car science for all they do.

I took my Land Rover Discovery there for inspection and I was very happy with the work that they did, Mar who was the tech, was very helpful and educated me on what I needed to have done for my vehicle. The customer service was great and I will definitely use this company again.

Place is awesome. Took my dad's Honda Odyssey last year to get smogged. Mar was great, easy to talk to and made quick work with my smog check. I'll be sure to come back when I need my other cars smog checks done.

I'm excited to express my satisfaction with Car Science. Right from the initial visit, their team demonstrated trustworthiness and honesty, maintaining transparent communication throughout. The outstanding customer service made me feel genuinely valued. The consistently high-quality workmanship has impressed me so much that even my initially skeptical husband now entrusts his car to them. We exclusively bring all our cars to this shop and happily recommend it to everyone. Keep up the fantastic work!

Was having issues with our CRV, other places were charging too much and had a long wait time just to diagnose a check engine light. A family member recommended this place. When I arrived, was greeted by Mar. He took a quick look at the car and figured out the issue. I was in and out and wasn't charged an arm and a leg for a simple diagnostic and quick fix.

David at CarScience was great. Stopped in while I was waiting to get my car washed next door and they were able to accommodate me for a Star Certified Smog check without any appointment. Very nice, air conditioned waiting room as well where I could sit and see when my car was done being washed. Price seems to also be way cheaper than other shops in the area. Paid around $63 including them sending in the certificate. I would definitely recommend!

David and his crew at Car Science always make time for me and my vehicles no matter what the problem might be! They are just a super shop and have been helping me for many years! David recently made a suggestion that critically involve my safety. I am so thankful to him for that! Go and see David and his team at Car Science in Fremont for excellent service!

Have been here multiple times for minor auto repairs, so far good experience. Also, this auto service is right across Fremont DMV, so good for quick fixes like replace break lights or indicators. They will do it in 5-10 minutes. First time I visited because of a faulty break light , DMV instructor asked me to get the break light fixed and come back, these guys replaced the break light in ~10 minutes. Haven’t done the vehicle service yet, will try next time. I do recommend this place for auto repairs.

This is now my place to get any work on both my truck n car done. Excellent job on both my vehicles, just had oil changes done on both , they did it fast on both and did a clean job on both. All the guys and the wonderful lady at the counter are very friendly and really listen if you have any problems when you bring in your car. Can't say that I can't wait to go again , LOL, but if I need work done , I won't be gritting my teeth , as I know where TO GO. Thanks guys for making it a easy choice.
