Canbeq Auto Service

This is by far the best mechanic Iv ever been too. Gary is so sweet and puts things in terms I can understand. Having car trouble can be the worst and he makes it somewhat enjoyable. I am so glad I found this place. Finding a good, trustworthy mechanic is hard but I feel so safe bringing my car here. I only wish I found it sooner.

This is a great place to take your car if you need work. My sister and I have both brought our cars there and Gary has always been very nice and honest with us. I would highly recommend his business!

All I can say is, my husband has never raved more about any car-​related business — EVER!
I’ve never met Gary personally, but based on all the positive, amazing things that my husband has said about him, I feel like I already have. He was able to fix up our little Lexus at an honest, great rate, and even fixed it up in a few hours, despite having only a moment’s notice.
My husband says he has never had such great customer service in any trade, and has already been telling all of his friends about this place because he wants everyone to meet Gary so that they can experience the same positive time that he did.
Gary, THANK YOU, from both of us! You have gained at least two more customers for life. =)

We are so lucky to have a car repair shop that is friendly, affordable and knowledgeable about how to fix and maintain European cars. Gary, the owner of the shop, charged us an extremely reasonable fee for changing the front brakes and rotors on our Audi Q5 with OEM parts. If you live anywhere near Sierra Madre, this is the shop for you and your European vehicle.

I have a 2003 VW station wagon, 100k miles. The coolant started disappearing weekly since a couple months ago. I brought to several nearby auto shops for a diagnostic, couldn’t find the answer. Then I was referred to see Gary, the owner of Canbeq. He outlined the problems, solutions and costs in details. He also worked out a fixing schedule according to my budget. I brought my car in the next morning, and he has completed loads of work, I mean $ 1k worth of the work, in the late afternoon. I test-​drove the car on 110 fwy, it was a super smooth ride, like Gary said:” your car is flying”. I highly recommend Gary if you own a VW, because he is a pro. BTW, he gives warranty on his work.

Very honest mechanic… the guy did a job for me almost a year ago and no problems… very nice to find a mechanic I can trust!!!

I am so glad I found Canbeq. Gary and the service he provides is excellent. There are other auto repair shops I thought were fine. But, from now on, Canbeq is the only place I will go for auto servicing. I just had my BMW 330i serviced there and Gary worked with me and my schedule to get everything taken care of. More importantly, his advice was completely straightforward and his prices were very reasonable. Now, my car runs great.
I feel more people should know about Canbeq. I wish Gary and his family a long and prosperous life because I do not know where I would go if he retired. I finally found a mechanic I trust and have no reservations recommending to everyone. If you live in the area and need a mechanic, you really are lucky to have such a great garage nearby.

Came to this place for a head light that was out, Gary was very helpful and quick with the replacement! Reasonable in price as well. He even gave me a replacement radiator cap for free cause mine was broken as a Christmas gift, I would recommend and will be coming back for quick fixes in the future.

Excellent service, skilled mechanic and at a very fair rate. Gary will treat you right and will give you honest straightforward advice. Go Bruins!

Having a father who owned a mechanics shop makes finding a great mechanic difficult. There is usually something that I would find needs improvement. However, once you find that great mechanic you can trust, you stay with them for as long as you can. I found that with Gary. He’s trustworthy, does great work, and is just great to be around. I truly look forward to needing work on my vehicles now knowing that I have a person that will help me when I need it. Highly recommend.

Gary was very helpful and courteous. Typo me on last minute and couldn’t have been more reasonably priced.

Gary was a pleasure to do business with. He explained all repairs, was efficient, and even offered ice cold water. Will bring back for any future repairs. Thanks Gary!

I have never worked with a mechanic like Gary! He is honest, thorough, timely and knowledgable. I have a 2002 Silver Arrow Edition SL 500 with a check engine light on. Gary took all the stress out of this issue for me and solved it and then charged me a very fair price. I know other places would have taken full advantage of me with this issue and way over charged me. Thank you Gary! You have a new loyal customer in me.

So I recently bought a new car, and Gary was super helpful with knowing exactly what to check and making sure that everything ran as suppose to. It’s comforting to know there are still trust worthy mechanics out there!

Gary is the best of the best. You won’t meet a more diligent, careful, and skilled mechanic. We trust him completely with both of our vehicles and we trust him because he’s an honest guy — full of integrity. His prices are fair, his service is great, and we always enjoy chatting with him when we get the chance. Good mechanics are hard to find, but Gary is amazing. Thank you Canbeq Auto!!!

Gary is MORE than 5 stars!
But he has 5 for a reason: He’s great. He’s honest, he’s friendly, he’s considerate, he’s smart, most of all he does amazing job. Taking your car to him is a decision you’ll never regret.

Gary is a super guy and an excellent mechanic. He communicates well and explains everything related to the repair in detail. His prices are very fair and his service is
great! We highly recommend Gary, he’s a friend and a great mechanic.
Our cars are happy! Thank you Gary!

Excellent Service! Excellent Price!
I took my Mercedes to Gary today. He was able to fix the problem ASAP.

I was recommended to Gary by Hrant at Hrant Auto Service. I was a little nervous because I hadn’t been to another mechanic for years, but I was soon to discover that Gary was one of the most considerate and knowledgeable mechanics I have ever met.
I told him that I had a shoot the following morning and that I wasn’t sure how else I would be able to get out to it without my car. He explained that he will try his best, but he will have to wait for the part and there were also several cars ahead of mine.
The following morning he called me, explaining that my car was ready. He said that he didn’t want me to have to cancel my shoot so as soon as got the parts, he began working on my car.
Thanks to Gary I was able to make it to work on time, which is incredible! And when I got the bill, it was far less than I expected. It was one of the few times I wished I could have paid for the services I received. I now live a little out of the ways, but I plan to go back if needs be; Gary is definitely worth the trip.

Gary is by far the most honest, straight-​forward and accommodating mechanic I’ve ever dealt with. We have a 2013 GTI that we’ve been taking to Gary and he’s been extremely helpful in maintaining. Even when going back to the dealer has been an option (which is painful and our last resort), he has been honest and open with our options.
Trust Gary and Canbeq Auto Service. He will be clear with what you need, what you can do to fix it and most importantly not cut any corners or give you any misinformation on diagnosing your vehicle.
Thanks for all the help you’ve given us Gary!
