I recently visited Toymasters due to a coolant leakage issue with my BMW, and Virgil promptly identified the problem. He efficiently addressed the issue, and as promised, I was able to retrieve my vehicle the following day. I am thoroughly impressed with Virgil's expertise and service, and I highly recommend this mechanic shop.

I brought my Jeep in, even though it's not a Toyota...and Virgil and the whole team were super helpful! My car wouldn't start and I thought it was the alternator but luckily they thouroughly checked my battery and everything and found out it was the wiring. They replaced my electrical system for my battery and it looked so much better! The old wires were fraying and barely looked like they were holding on. The new wires are wrapped neatly and have brand new hardware secured to the battery. They also changed my front brakes and flushed my brake fluid system. 10/10 customer service and care. These guys care about you and your car, not just your money. If you're looking for a fix, this is the place!

Virgil truly is the Toymaster! If you own a new or old school Toyota or Lexus and you need it serviced, Toymasters are professional, reasonable and prompt. I own a 2014 Lexus GX 460, 1988 Toyota Land Cruiser and a 1993 Toyota truck, Toymasters have kept them running like Swiss watches for years. I’ve been a customer for nearly 30 years. I highly recommend. Happy Trails!

Looking for a trusted honest Toyota mechanic can always be a daunting task. I have nothing but positive things to say about the work that I have had completed in the Toymasters shop. Virgil has always been truthful and honest about urgent and non-urgent repairs on my 96 Toyota 4Runner. I highly recommend Virgil and his team for any complex or simple repairs needed.

After a disastrous experience at the Toyota Service Center, I found Virgil. He fixed the problem Toyota had created and did it for about a third of the cost I was quoted at Toyota. Virgil cares about his customers and actually listened to me, what I wanted, and I left feeling really confident in the work. thank you!!

I've known Virgil since ages and this guy is the real deal. Nothing gets out of this shop unresolved.. that includes any brand including the flat six Porsche motors to souped up 2JZGTE's.. and of course the 3SGTE's. Quality shop with reasonable prices. Stock or modified, whatever you want...

Excellent work and attention to detail. Inspects and goes through every part. Today I went in for an oil change and Virgil made sure I was aware of important maintenance that needed to be done that I wasn’t aware of. After completing the work, he personally test drove my truck and made sure it was running as well as he knows it should, like he does every time. I feel confident when I leave Toymasters.

Virgil is amazing, he’s incredibly knowledgeable and willing to teach you about your car. He’s honest and straightforward, and doesn’t recommend anything you don’t need or want. He’s my go-to for my Toyota.

Hands down THE BEST Toyota mechanic/shop in Southern California. Virgil is such a great guy and is a Master in all things Toyota, I've been going there for over 15 years and Virgil and crew, have consistently provided expert, timely and reasonably priced service for my Toyota Tundra. Look no further for simply the best Toyota service in the San Fernando Valley and surrounding areas.

Virgil is the most knowledgeable Toyota mechanic I have ever met and I take all 5 of my cars to him. Toymasters does excellent work and their pricing is great. Highly recommend this shop to everyone with a Toyota or Lexus.

Virgil and his crew are absolutely brilliant mechanics. I truly believe they could fix any problem. I have taken my 1989 Toyota pickup to them 3 times now, and they have done a perfect job every time. They repaired the EGR system when Chk Eng light came on, fixed the throttle position sensor when truck was running rough, and installed new timing chain set. Virgil knows Toyotas inside and out, 30+ yrs of experience, and you will not find a more honest, hardworking and knowledgeable guy. He's a nice guy to talk to too. Do yourself a favor, go here. You won't regret it

Virgil ensures my ride is always in prime condition, making recommendations only when necessary. To those griping about labor and material costs, running a business isn't child's play. Trust me; Virgil beats any dealer in Southern California hands down.

Virgil at Toymasters did an excellent job troubleshooting my Prius-c and completed repairs on time and at a good price. It’s great piece of mind to have a trustworthy and capable mechanic when you need one. Highly recommended!

Virgil, and his team at Toymasters are the ABSOLUTE BEST! They've taken such good care of my vintage Toyota truck, and are just a total pleasure to work with! Virgil really knows his stuff, and has deep knowledge of anything to do with a Toyota vehicle. I wouldn't trust my truck with any other shop, and I actually look forward to bringing it in for fixes and sometimes just for upgrades. Every single bit of work preformed so far has been completed to my 100% satisfaction, and the personal interactions have always been super-friendly and pleasant. This is THE BEST shop!

If you want your car to turn out better than at the dealer, Toymasters is the place to go. A friend with a Previa recommended them when I needed to replace my clutch after a bad installation. I dropped it off at Toymasters and left it in Virgil’s hands. After getting my car back, here’s what I learned: Virgil really is the Toyota master. He cared for my car better than the dealer and used genuine dealer parts. My Celica has around 260,000 miles, but it feels like new, which I honestly didn’t think was possible for a 2001 model with so many miles and track use. My clutch felt like it had vibrations, and I kept wondering if it was just me or if the clutch was off balance. Talking with Virgil, he suggested the dealer flywheel and clutch. They then removed the poorly installed clutch that had thrown off all the harmonics and after driving with the new setup, everything is balanced and there’s no shaking. Now the clutch is smooth as butter, and the car feels brand new. Toymasters also replaced missing clutch parts, a leaking rear main seal which was just installed a year ago, sanded away scuffs from the misaligned throwout bearing, and even cleaned the bell housing. Virgil went above and beyond and he treated my car like it was his own. I truly appreciate that level of high quality care. The failed installation from the previous shop cost me a pretty penny, but you live and learn which then brought me to Toymasters. Now I know exactly what I’ll get when I bring my car to Virgil’s and that is top quality care from highly skilled Toyota Masters. That’s all I need for peace of mind, knowing the job will be done right. Thanks again for everything Toymasters so happy to have my car back running in tip top shape!

Highly recommend Virgil and the team at Toymasters. I needed some parts installed on my Gen 2 Prius and after some searching online decided to come into Toymasters. Best decision. Typically I try to do work myself but this job was beyond me. Virgil was honest, transparent, and had a obvious passion for cars of all kinds, not just Toyota. Their shop name is very fitting and I am appreciative of the swiftness and quality of the work. I will be back to these masters if I ever need anything in future. Thank you.

Virgil is the absolute best. I have been bringing my cars to him for 26 years. There is absolutely no one I trust more with my car. He is straightforward, tells you exactly what is going on, how much it will cost and whether the repair is vital or if it can wait a while. I actually found him because the independent car dealer I bought my used car from in 1998 used Virgil exclusively for his own personal cars. If that isn’t the highest recommendation for a mechanic, I don’t know what is. Virgil has never let me down and I know from experience he is much more thorough, honest and less expensive than any dealership repair shop.
