  "Have used J Car Service twice now, the second time was due to a failed warrant of fitness and needing some minor fixes. I took the car in at 9:30am, no booking. Car was repaired same day and the WOF had been rechecked and passed. I was running late from work but after phoning to say how long I was going to be they offered to stay and wait for me to pick the car up. Very satisfied customer. Great service, quality work, good bunch of people."

  "Fantastic service - Took my car in for a full service, they discovered cracks in the alternator and power steering belts then called me before doing anything and quoted the cost to replace them. Having had bad experience with mechanics, I inspected the belts myself - true to their word they needed replacing!

  Very honest, professional, reliable and they really went the extra mile - they even cleaned my car for free!! Highly recommended."

  "I have had terrible luck with mechanics in the past (as I'm sure most have), but after viewing the remarks on this site I decided to give them a go. 100% satisfied, because they did a great job, have the best customer service for mechanics I have ever seen, and their prices are very good. In fact taking my car in this week to have a noise looked at, not sure whats causing it."

  "These guys are BRILLIANT. I can not recommend them highly enough!
  I'd heard about them for the first time through the no cowboys site and thought I'd give them a go. I'd had my car serviced within the last 2 months with a different mechanic but wasn't super enthused with the end result so I popped along to Js for a cambelt replacement. Not only did they call me up and advise me of what exactly needed to be done and the costs BEFORE starting, they also identified a cracked water pump which… hadn't been picked up by the other mechanic. When I went to pick my car up at the end of the day, the car was working better than I EVER remember and was in IMMACULATE condition.
  
  Takashi also went to great lengths to explain what was done and also show me the cracked and worn parts - even though it was the end of the day, I got there later than I said I would and pouring with rain. I am definitely going back for all my repair work =)"

  "Great Service - I was most impressed! The whole experience was made quick and easy for me, which was really appreciated. They gave me a loan car while they worked on mine and even cleaned mine for me while they had it! They explained to me the problem and showed me the worn parts etc... Awesome customer service and at a good price, highly reccomend these guys!!

  "Recently had my car fixed at J Car, I have been truly impressed their service. All of my questions were clearly answered over the phone. I was also provided with a decent courtesy car. My car was professionally serviced and jobs done listed on the paperwork. I was quite skeptical about its central-locking issue at first, but to my surprise they quickly found the problem and fixed it efficiently at a very reasonable price. And even though it was Friday evening, they still patiently explained to… me the cause of the issue and still managed to return my car spotless!"

  Takashi responded:

  "Thanks very much Don. For anyone viewing this page we\'d like to mention that Don found us on No Cowboys and decided to bring his car to us as a \'first time customer\'. We know its difficult to find a mechanic to trust if you don\'t know one. Its great to know we met your expectations Don and we appreciate your feedback."

  "Have been going to J Rental Cars for all my Mechanical services for about 4 years now. Have always been impressed with the service I have receive from Grant (owner) and his colleagues. Everytime I have picked up the car it has been cleaned for me free of charge as well. The paperwork is clearly setout and easy to follow, showing me that everything has been checked, and if there are any faults.
  Excellent service, honest pricing, and very good knowledge of their job. Highly recommended to… anyone in the Auckland area."

  "Overall impression of J Car Services is that this is an efficent, trustworthy work shop. I went away feeling satisfied all was in order & my Pajero 4x4 was once again in tip top condition. So I wouldn't hesitate recommening J Cars to anyone needing routine maintance to major mechanical repair work. "

  "I have never know a mechanic to take as much time and effort to firstly explain what and why something needs doing but Grant and his team also go out of their way to get the best prices for parts etc . I highly recommend J Car Service both for Business to Business customers and especially for normal lay-people that don't want to be spoken down too or ripped off !! these guys know their stuff and deliver great service !"

  "Grant and Takashi are both awesome! I have always been very cautious bout mechanics and prices vs quality of work..There is no problem with that here!
  The team here go the extra mile, courtesy calls, after service follow ups, they even went as far as washing my sisters car before I went back to pick it up!
  Based on the work they completed on her car I then took my car in and was again very happy with the outcome! I even left the workshop being able to see out of my previously dirty windows!… Thanks Takashi for the extra effort!
  
  Need I say more..hard to find some might say but totally woth the effort!"

  "Grant's listening skills are exceptional, not only did he make my BMW purr like a kitten; it now flies like a Tomcat. At last a kiwi mechanic who is honest, reliable and worthy of my trust and I know has my safety in mind. The fact that his prices are very competitive was just a welcome bonus."

  "Highly recommended. I found J Car Service via the No Cowboys site, and decided to give them a try - as did not know any mechanics in the area. Normally I go to the franchise mechanics, but always have some vague feeling that I am being ripped off by them.

  However I could not be happier with J Car. Thorough and honest and very flexible. Suggested to me that alternator could do with replacing as had a few cracks, and kept it to show it to me. My car had even been washed and the tires blacked… when I arrived to pick it up. Definitely recommend, and will certainly go again. Thanks very much. Tom"
