Always grateful for the honest, reliable help of the team and Otto's Tire and European Auto Repair, who aren't intimated by an older vehicle that might require creative sourcing of parts and always fair in their estimates. Plus, get the job done quickly. Highly recommend!

Took my Audi R8 here to get new rotors, brakepads, and tires. Otto's did fantastic work and he beats competitor's pricing. He even threw in some extra work I requested for no charge. My car is super low and he's one of the only places that has a low enough lift to do all the necessary repairs. I'd highly recommend him for your service needs!

I first moved to LA in the summer of 22' and my Audi started giving me issues, navigating the mechanic shop scene and finding a great one is throwing a needle in a hay stack. But I took it to Otto's and I've never looked back, EVER. Now that I moved away from Downtown area I will still come to Otto's even thought…

Vicente and his crew have been taking care of my 86 Westfalia for years. It’s a great shop and I always feel taken care of. They keep it nice and clean for a mechanic shop… Vicente explains things well and is reasonably priced. They also work on my 2001 4Runner. Since my cars are older- they need special attention…

First met Otto and Randy eleven years back when they were working for someone else. Now they still working together but for themselves and there is nobody else I trust my car business but to them. Friendly environment, honest and hardworking people that live to meet the expectations that their work and customers…

Used to always take my Q5 to the dealership for service, where they charge 2x the rate for labor and seemingly 3x the price for parts. Otto's got my brakes replaced same day, offered a complimentary inspection that was super detailed and helpful, and everyone was friendly and communicative the whole time. Cannot recommend enough!
