Bryan's Garage

My wife went to Bryan's Garage for an oil change before our summer trip this past year. She has a 2012 Rav4 that burns oil, an endemic problem to that model. Mechanics generally agree that little can be done aside from rebuilding the engine with new piston gaskets (just search YouTube for "2012 toyota rav4 burning oil"). Nonetheless, some mechanics periodically propose expensive repairs that they claim "might reduce the oil consumption". When probed as to the probability of any repair short of rebuilding eliminating the oil burn completely, they immediately admit that it may somewhat reduce, but will very likely not eliminate the oil burn. Unfortunately, I was away in Europe during this oil change when Bryan's Garage recommended a $500+ repair that *might* reduce the oil consumption. The garage was optimistic about the repair's success and my wife did not think to question them as to the exact probability of the repair succeeding, given the long history of this model. As we were going on a long road trip, she opted for the repair. During our road trip, the oil consumption was, if anything, higher than before the expensive repair. My wife explained that she had had it repaired pri

Super friendly auto shop. Barb is very welcoming over the phone and was able to get my car in on the same day when I had an emergency. Within a few hours, the issue was diagnosed and I was given a reasonable quote. They had my car back to me and fully running by 5pm. Brenton even took the time to show me what had gone wrong and showed me the car parts that had broken down. I won’t go anywhere else!

We love Bryan's Garage and have been clients for 10+ years. They are absolutely amazing. They will tell you when something isn't needed yet, but to be aware. Great quality. Their whole team is personable and helpful. For emissions testing they will even fix it and get it tested for you to make sure it passes.

Bryan's has been a huge help to me more than once. My catalytic converter was stolen, and they were able to get the new part, a shield to keep it from being stolen again, and some other much-needed repairs done in three days, while also helping me get the best possible deal from my insurance. I've been there a couple of times, and they've always gotten the job done quickly for great price. I want to specifically thank Brenton, who has helped me each time I've come, and been a patient and welcoming mechanic :) They've definitely got that down-to-Earth local feel that's very rare these days.
