Great experience with Tenleytown. Mike offered clear communication on the inspection, timing, work required, and pricing. I had previously taken the vehicle to a dealership who quoted me over 2x the cost. Beyond the price, the communication I received from Tenleytown throughout the service and commitment to…
Have been in DC for about one week so far on a short-term work assignment, and a few days into my arrival, my car started making a concerning noise. Mike and the team at Tenleytown went out of their way to help diagnose the noise and also identify another critical safety issue that I previously had no idea about.…
I had several things done over the past months for maintenance on my 2004 Lexus GS430. They are always professional and pleasant to deal with. What like is they inspect and provide information on things that need to be done soon, and also about things that may need work in the future, but they do not push you or try to upsell. It’s an honest shop.
I had a great experience with Mike at Tenleytown Automotive. He was straightforward and honest about the repairs I needed and why, explaining each part in an easy-to-follow way, and his whole team was friendly and professional. I will definitely be returning in the future - thankful to have a DC mechanic I trust!
Brought my 20 year old car to Tenleytown Automotive, they did a great job recommending work that should be done. I will continue to bring my cars here, knowledgeable and honest.
Everyone at Tenleytown Auto is so kind and helpful and they really take the time to thoroughly explain the services and repairs. They’re also so fast with their work and do an awesome job overall. Been going for over a year and have had nothing but exceptional experiences!
They were kind, communicative, and fast. I felt that every potential repair was outlined well and I wasn’t pressured to move forward with anything I wasn’t ready to.
I tried this place out, after getting tired of shlepping my 9-year old Subaru out to the Tysons Corner dealer for service. Proximity (less than a mile)and convenience were its main features to start. It’s unassuming, squeezed into an Exxon station, but surprisingly organized and professional. Computerized with…
Couldn't be more pleased - a relief to find Mike and his team at Tenleytown Automotive. I built and restored cars with my neighbor growing up, so know enough to feel when I'm being taken for a ride. After many states and cities, so happy to find a shop that has clear communication, fair and transparent prices, no…
Excellent car service. The work was done quickly and accurately. I will recommend to my friends! Thank you very much!
Highly recommend Tenleytown auto. I just bought a car and took it here because they had great reviews. They very quickly identified issues that needed to be fixed and some that were just recommendations. I really liked how I could approve work online in just a few clicks and the work was done in a day.
Honest, transparent, helpful and overall great car service experience. Highly recommend.
Great service and fast. Will go back again.
They were courteous and were able to fit me in before my trip. The work was done quickly and efficiently. They were very accommodating. 5 stars!
The quality of service and integrity of the service department is outstanding. My son’s car started to have issues and I needed to have his car repaired quickly before he left to head home at the end of the college semester. They not only diagnosed the mechanical issues but they included photos with diagnostic…
This is just the greatest garage. The guys do excellent work. They are so friendly. Their charges are very reasonable.
Did good work, were polite, on time, reliable.

I could not say enough amazing things about this shop. They are honest, professional and their actual job is top notch. They are extremely knowledgeable and you always feel comfortable with them. They are not there to break the bank but to really take care of the clients. I don't take my vehicles anywhere else and…
The service and communication was great!!! I got my car in time, pricing was great, the staff was friendly.
