Campus Garage for oil change

Most reliable place on the planet, coolest people too.
Very good work.
I had a check engine light on my daughter‘s BMW X3 and dropped it off there. Diagnostics were free and they started with the simplest solution which was changing the oil and making sure it was full. I’m thankful for their honesty and this was a very reasonable repair.
I had a worsening cyclical thump in one of my tires, so I made an appointment to have it looked at, the same time as an oil change. I soon received a call from Campus Garage, saying my oil change was done. They had diagnosed the problem as a cupped tread on one tire. They had it ordered, balanced and mounted by the…
They took care of my daughter’s car (ISU student). We live 6 hours away. They called me to explain the issue and then offered to also show my daughter how to properly check her oil dipstick because apparently it is not clear on her particular model. Places like Campus Garage make it easier to have your kids far from home.
Outstanding and professional service. A Rae find in today’s works. I would recommend this workshop to anyone that really cares about how their vehicle is treated.
Yep, these guys are good. We brought in our old Kia Optima fearing the worst and were prepared to perform last rights on it. Campus Garage quickly diagnosed the problems and got back to me with what they had found. Problem solved. They finished the job at a price that I could live with. They are competent and friendly...I highly recommend them.
Those guys are great and fast. We highly recommend them!
Campus Garage does great work done on time at affordable rates. The staff and owner are helpful and responsive. Why go anywhere else?
High quality work. Honest and easy to work with. Very customer and quality oriented. Would strongly recommend them. This has been the case every time I have had work done by them. I would not go to any other garage.The last two days I had brake work done on both my cars. It was clearly explained what…
Had an urgent issue with my Porsche. They diagnosed the problem and fixed it for me. Very pleased.
We have used Campus Garage on two occasions now with a perfect outcome each time. My daughter is an ISU student with a crazy schedule. We live to hours away from Ames. We really like the after hours lock boxes for key pickup. Everything with Campus Garage has been excellent.
Great service. Honest and professional
We have had excellent service on 2 of our vehicles over many years.They get us on their schedule in a very reasonable time frame, and always get the job done on the same day. They have always gone the extra mile for us!
I’ve been going to Campus Garage for about 2 years now and they are the best mechanic experience I’ve had. They’ve always been able to fix my issue, perform the necessary service, inform me of costs beforehand, and have exceptional customer service. I have no plans to go anywhere else for my cars servicing needs.
The Campus Garage people are very personable and will work with you on scheduling and any other problems you have and I think they are very honest.
They never pressure to purchase unnecessary services. Very professional garage!
Excellent service! Brought my Porsche Cayenne in for an oil change and inspection. The team was professional, quick, and very reasonably priced. They took the time to check the car over thoroughly and provided great service without the high dealership costs. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend Campus Garage for Porsche service.
Great customer care!!
These guys are the best. I love that they always provide free estimates and that the work cost is consistently within 10% of that estimate. Beyond that, the work is completed on time with a professionalism resulting in success 100% of the time I have asked them to take on a project. I highly recommend these guys!!!!
