What a great place to work on your vehicle. I have used them twice in the past two years and both experiences were flawless. They have mechanics on duty to help you with repairs if needed or just to show you the ropes. Their selection of tools is just the best. I’ve never wanted for nothing while wrenching on my truck. As long as I live in the area, they will be my go to place for doing my own maintenance.

If you like working on your vehicle yourself “and trust yourself” this is the place to go. I’ve been here countless times for maintenance and modifications on my car over the years and have never been disappointed, except with myself like the time I dropped my brand new $800 intercooler. I like the new location as it’s easier to pull into the lifts but do miss the drive on lift. The new location is within a few minutes walk of auto parts stores which is great if your car is all in pieces and you need something. Edit. Yay there is a drive on!

Awesome place with incredible owner and staff. It’s a blessing that this place exists and is so available and accommodating to those who want to do their own work and don’t have access to a lift, air tools or fluid disposal. Five stars and will definitely be back.

Updated regarding oil change rates still being around (sorry owner). btw, I've been there at least two dozen times with a number of different cars and projects. I am a "real customer". This place is great. It's a great idea and the staff is mostly pretty awesome. Unfortunately, they changed the pricing to a two hour min of $60ish. If you need to do a quick job, it doesn't make sense to come here anymore. Seems like the owner wanted to shift the focus of the shop to larger, project jobs, not sure. Oh well, guess it's time to break out the ol' jack and stands.

excellent place, looks like a garage that has been in use for a while, but they had all the tools I needed and friendly employees who are willing to help. We took my son's 2016 Mustang, we did the front and rear brakes, manual transmission fluid change, and differential fluid change. Much better than crawling under the car, and being on your knees, very worth it.

Great guy, you’ll know who the owner is. He didn’t scam me or try to mess with me. Doesn’t lie, doesn’t overcharge. Dirt cheap in my opinion, one shop quoted me $12,500. He did it for $9800 out the door. I also got another brake repair that was extensive that I was quoted $1650. This guy did it for $850. Dirt Cheap, good guy. The area is a little bit urban, however I don’t trust anyone else with my vehicle. Come to this shop, don’t give anyone else your time, money, or business. He’ll do you right.

I needed a lift to do an oil change on my car and found Austin DIY on Google after a quick search. Took a chance and will most definitely be coming back. They have everything you need, staff is amazingly helpful and friendly plus you'll meet a bunch of people also wrenching together that are eager to just talk about DIY car stuff :) Omar was the mechanic helping me out today and he was awesome! Can't recommend this place enough, will be back for sure!

Needed to change the transmission fluid and front & rear Diff fluid on my car. Dealer says transmission fluid is "lifetime". Sorry, no such thing as lifetime fluid if you want your car to keep running. The shop was the perfect place to do the job. Available tools and all....

Can't speak highly enough of this shop. Owner and employees really are some of the most down-to-earth, honest people I've ever met. The shop was just what I needed for a multiday project, but I would also be great just to avoid the hassle of jackstands and the like while doing some maintenance. Would recommend this place for any sort of work you need done

Good shop to go to with knowledgeable mechanics. Most important owner of the shop gives excellent customer service. Highly recommended!!!

I needed to change out the transmission fluid and filter on my car and did an oil change at the same time. This was a perfect place to do both at once. I normally do my oil changes at home but didn't want to tackle the transmission service at home. They had all the equipment to capture all the old fluid and dispose of it. They also had containers to dispose of the old filters. The price is very reasonable to get access to a lift which made this job way easier and a major plus was not putting old oil/fluid in my car to take to the local auto parts store for disposal. If I have to do any other jobs like a brake fluid exchange or a coolant fluid exchange which would be easier on a lift, I will for sure come back. They also had spring compressors for suspension work, 2 post lifts and fans to help make the work on hot days a bit more bearable.

Down to earth, hard working people here. Won't go anywhere else from now on. All the tools you need, they won't try to up sale you, and straight to the point. Will be back!

Great staff

Really friendly staff. Helped me setup and gave me tips. As a complete mechanical novice, I felt comfortable working and fixing my car. The satisfaction of doing it yourself is definitely worth it

Great place to do some DIY work on your vehicle! Several lifts to use. All indoors and out of the rain! All of the tools are included in the $30 bay rental.

Xavier was the best. He was so kind and took the time out of his busy schedule to help my son and I. His honesty meant so much to me. He immediately was like oh somethings hanging down underneath the car and he fixed it for us. I told my son this is what you want from a mechanic. He even gave advice to my 20 year old son to prevent it from happening again. Xavier is the reason we're a new customer. I've had bad experiences with mechanics in the past so I don't trust easily but with Xavier I could see right from the jump he was honest and a good person. Thank you for making our day easier.
