My go-to auto repair in Seattle! David and his team are AMAZING - knowledgeable, friendly, and truly honest. They offer thorough diagnostics, clear communication, and multiple repair options based on your needs and budget. They handle everything from routine maintenance to major repairs. Solid work done in hours with no overcharging. Feel lucky to have found such an affordable and professional auto shop. They definitely deserve more recognition!!

Dave is a MECHANICAL GENIUS!! This is what he does and thank our lucky stars he is bringing it to the people. Absolutely trust him to look after my child! LOVE HIM. NO QUESTION. We have been using him for seriously, 17+ years. He services all our cars and there is no question I have that he can not answer. He's a straight no chaser. We have had him look after our 1997 Ford F250, ancient VW Jetta, 2004 Volvo XC90 etc. He knows when to call it quits and when to keep on fixing. A WEALTH of information is in his head regarding all makes and models when we are buying a new to us, used car. This guys is top notch. I got him off the Click and Clack web page of NPR a zillion years ago and have not looked back.....Seattle is a better place to live because we love and trust him so much. The entire community is oh so lucky to have him. PERIOD. Feel really lucky to have found someone this perfectly suited to his craft.

Great service, great people, very reasonably priced. I had an oil change on my Volkswagen by My Mechanic about six weeks ago. This morning my light came on saying to add oil. I gave My Mechanic a call, they told me to come in same day, spent close to two hours figuring out what the issue was, resolved it, and didn’t charge me a penny.

My Mechanic was recommended by another business, and at first I almost disregarded the place bc they were booked for almost a month. Instead I waited and set an appointment in advance and I'm very glad I did. David was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and most importantly he didn't talk down to you. He explained the fixes he did and he was upfront about the costs. I expected to leave my car for a few days, but David had it ready that evening. When I started my car and drove it home I was shocked. My car ran better than it has in at least three years. Unfortunately I'm moving otherwise I would bring my car to David for everything. Cannot recommend this shop enough, but schedule ahead if you can.

This is easily the best experience I've had with a mechanic and a shop's staff in general. I live in Anacortes, but am going to try to come here when I need work done in the future! Can't recommend enough.

Fantastic group to work with! I have used My Mechanic a few times now and I have been nothing but impressed with the customer service and quality of work done on my car. Services are reasonably priced and the front staff and mechanics are super nice. David is very knowledgeable and has been able to accurately diagnose my car problems based on his past experience and functioning knowledge of the systems. The parking lot is a bit small and can be difficult to park in, but it's worth the service you get!

We only worked with Dave a couple of times so far, but he surely has earned our trust. We have been trying out different mechanic shops in Seattle for more than a year, but no other place makes us feel more comfortable handing over our cars. Dave has always been honest and transparent about what needs to be fixed and what can wait. He talks straight, gets the job done well, with a reasonable price and no hidden fees. I'd recommend Dave to anyone who's looking for a reliable mechanic for their vehicles.

David is honest, knowledgeable, kind, and fair! Best mechanic I've ever had. On multiple occasions he's given me multiple options on how to handle a situation (quick & cheap fix that may not last, mid price fix that will take a while to complete, OEM that will be pricy but perfect). I will take all of my vehicles to David for as long as I am in Seattle.

Finding an honest mechanic is almost as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack! I have had my current car since 2006, brand new- Subaru Forester/ 4 door. To be fair , many of my car issues over the years have been outright weird... for a well maintained car. I have since found out that Subaru had " issues" with their 2006 Foresters. If my car hadn't been given to me by my father who had passed away, I would have gotten rid of this Subaru and gone with Toyota.. years ago. But, due to wise advice I have kept it and simply fixed the problems. I think I have had everything conceivably replaced or repaired since 2006. During this time I have hopped around to all kinds of mechanics from Seattle, Kirkland, Oahu, Bothell, Lake Forest Park back to Seattle, growing more and more discouraged with dishonest- incompetent ..over charging mechanics. I finally took it to the Dealer thinking their service department would at least be competent.... WRONG!! Especially the dealer I bought my Subaru from... they are overpriced and extremely dishonest!! One of my local Chevron dealers were able to fix one issue relatively inexpensively but, their service providers all charge differently and with unreasonable pricing. I recently was told by them that I had a strut leaking and I needed 2 even though only 1 was leaking... Their estimate was highly unreasonable so, I went shopping on google once again for a new mechanic... Alas!! My Mechanic was literally found! Great reviews and close by. I first spoke with Adam over the phone and he was so kind and mentioned - "IF I had one strut that was leaking, I didn't need 2!! " Go figure... He mentioned he would check out my car first and let me know exactly along with an estimate. I was impressed with the response and scheduled. I had to schedule out a week and take it in really early; before 8AM... But, I'm glad I did!! I met the Owner, David Deangelo- also very nice- experienced- informative and helpful!! I think I have finally found a good mechanic for my car to continue providing the best care for her!! Thank you My Mechanic!! Your customer for life...

Was recommended to this shop by D&D brakes across the street and was beyond satisfied with my experience. Took my Honda Accord to this shop for a transmission service and to inspect a “leak” in my power steering fluid another shop claimed to find. Paid 187 for the service, a full inspection, and a replacement to a O-distributer ring that was leaky and affecting my transmission. Job was done in about 2 hours! I have visited 2 major popular mechanics in downtown Seattle and U district, both of which were quoting me thousands of dollars of work for repairs I’ve had done in the past 2-3 years that they could not “verify” due to it not being updated on the carfax (Michigan autoshops don’t often upload their work to carfax!). David and his team did a complimentary inspection and affirmed that nothing was wrong with my vehicle that I was being told by a different shop was present, and well as some assistance with timeline on my transmission. Will be bringing my car here from now on for honest accurate pricing and quality repairs.

I was brought here by a couple that were buying my used car and was so impressed with the service! They gave my car a total look-over, took it for a drive, and were very thorough. The staff was all very friendly. I interacted with three of them and they were all fantastic. Definitely going to switch and have them be my mechanic (aptly named) from now on!

These guys are great at what they do. I have a 96 Chevy impala ss, and the work they did on it was superb. Ty Dan and crew. I will definitely be a repeat customer, I luv great work and better professionalism. All the details were explained in my final bill and sent it to me thru my email Addy.

These guys are the most honorable, service-oriented crew I have ever come across in all my years of car ownership and maintenance. I've brought them a couple quirky problems and in each instance they went out of their way to fix the issue quickly with great service and a fair price. When their schedule was too full for a last minute repair, they've made solid recommendations without fear. It's also worth noting that the handful of bad reviews here have been responded to promptly, and indicate the reviewer was mistaken in the business they reviewed. Certainly my own experience has been worthy of the five stars and is totally in keeping with every other glistening review here.

Great experience. Went on for a tune up and was e-mailed a detailed list of assessments, recommendations, and prices. The work was timely. The price was fair and affordable. David was so nice. It felt like a small town interaction in the city. Highly recommend.

I recently went there after a co-worker had recommended them. I had my regular mechanic before and I thought he was good but these people are superb! I had issues with my brakes ever since my old mechanic replaced them and a couple of calipers. Dave, Caleb and their team are amazing. They tore my brakes apart and discovered the last guy had not greased anything! My brakes are super smooth now and no noise. I recently took my girlfriends car there too. They found some things that were causing issues and they fixed them all for a great price. They are honest and trustworthy...period!

Office owner and Brandon are both super nice and friendly. I stopped in their office in rain with a piece of rubber underneath my car drops off on ground on one side, Brandon helped to fix it, and checked every fluid and made sure my car is in a good condition to go. He also recommended good place for burger. I feel very welcomed and love the people in this place. Highly recommend to people in Seattle.
