Turchi Enterprises

I highly recommend this place. Very honest, knowledgeable, and professional.

I have been taking my cars here for over 30 years. I would not go anywhere else.
Unfortunately Tony passed away and he will be missed because he was a great person.
His longtime partner has taken over. His name is Nas. He is just like Tony very customer service focused and extremely honest. Nas is certified by BMW, Mercedes and Audi

I think Turchi is the only mechanic I fully trust. My father would recommend this place all of the time. When I had my jeep, the horrible jeep dealership couldn’t fix an broken hose issue. I brought my car to Turchi and they fixed my car for free. They looked at it, put a hose clamp on and wouldn’t take my money. They had no idea who I was or that my dad gave them so much business. I didn’t name drop and they didn’t ask. They just helped someone in need.
Bonnie, in the front is so helpful too. I’ve known people who thought they were getting ripped off by Turchi, but that wasn’t the case. The suggestions made by Turchi are necessary.

Hands down best place to take you car. This place is a Lafayette Hill institution. Been around over 40 years! Everyone knows Tony. He will take care if you and has been voted «most honest car mechanic» by Philadelphia Magazine.

My family has been a patron of Tony’s for decades and I would recommend their services to anyone. I can’t even begin to the list the number of services they’ve provided but new transmission was amongst them.
A trust worthy automotive repair shop that does quality work.
Tony, the mechanics and Bonnie are all really great to work with.

I don’t know why he has so many good reviews… Turchi scammed me and did unnecessary, and faulty, repairs to my car. A stalling issue was to be «fixed» by a new rack and pinion? I didn’t know better at the time, but that did not help (as you can imagine). Not only did they remove my perfectly functioning rack and pinion, the new part was defective and the power steering ceased to function for the remaining life of the car at low speeds.
They put me in a dangerous situation by letting me drive a stalling car and telling me it was fixed multiple times, when they were simply doing expensive repairs. He adjusted the idle of the car, when it was controlled by the computer and should never have been touched. This resulted in an unexpected revving of the RPMs to 6500, a TERRIFYING experience.
What the car really needed after *thousands* of dollars in repairs? They had failed to notice that the car hadn’t had a tuneup in its lifetime, approximately 13 years. Once it had a tuneup it never stalled again. I will never return here, ever.

the only person better than Tony himself is Bonnie. A true gem of a manager.

My family and I have been going to Tony’s since the early 70’s.We trust Tony and his mechanics to fix/​inspect the car right the first time. We have never been disappointed. He tells it like it is (for example, you won’t have to replace those tires this year but you will next). I trust them implicitely to do me, my budget, and my car right. I have lived in Center City for 25 years, and I still take my car to Tony’s for everything.
I’ve read people complain about his location. A couple of buses stop right across the street; they can take you east or west. If you are industrious (and I have done this in the nice weather) you can pack a bicycle and ride the bike path home.

Everyone here is AMAZING. I bought a used volvo and brought it in to make sure everything was kosher. They explained all the issues to me in a way I could understand and took the time to talk through issues I needed to fix now and issues that could wait. The guy who did the labor on my car actually called me right away when something else came up and seemed super apologetic to me that it was so unexpected. Bonnie is wonderful! She was super great on the phone about everything.
I am NEVER taking my car ANYWHERE else!

I have been going to Tony’s for a few years now and they have always taken great care of me (and my car). They have been very honest about problems which come up and the cost of their repairs has been very reasonable. I even had to do a complete engine replacement earlier this year and after I shipped the new engine to them they did the swap in a few days and had everything working perfectly. They are always happy to take some time to answer questions about your car or break down what has been done.
As another reviewer mentioned the location is a bit isolated (no train station nearby) but there are restaurants if you want to wait for them to work on your car. They also have a small selection of books that you can look through while in the waiting room.

Once you find a good mechanic you hold on tight like a starved boa constrictor. Tony, Bonnie, and the gang took great care of my car and my wallet; quick, honest, and friendly. Finding a decent mechanic in the area has been a chore so finding a great little shop like this is a real score. The sign out front says Tony’s (Turchi Enterprises is the parent company) and they’re right next to the Persian restaurant and the fire station. These guys were recommended to me by family and I mistakenly went to outfit across the street so don’t be confused by the multiple shops in the area. They don’t have a TV or vast magazine catalogue so bring your own entertainment. Walking distance from a couple of restaurants and the General Lafayette (don’t have too many before picking up your car) but nowhere near a train station so arrange for a ride or hop on the bus if you’re leaving your car for extended periods. My cars will be happy and well-​maintained for years to come.
