I trust this mechanic like I would trust my dad! Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff. They don’t try to get you to do stuff you don’t need. They’re just all-around the best!!

Honest, knowledgeable, hardworking. Ive brought 6 cars here, for various maintenance and repairs. They send me info and photos during the job, to ensure I am making informed decisions. Great people, great service, great communication.

Love Mike n the crew. I travel a long way and I ONLY take my vehicles there!!

I made my way over to Wintrrgardena Smog & Tune to get my truck smog done snd that went perfectly. The owner is a guy named Mark and he was very professional and also competent.Another really cool and locally owned Lakeside business that is exceptional.

Thank you so much for such prompt excellent service. I appreciate the courtesy.thank you

I love these guys. I have been going there for a while. They have always done exceptional work on my car when needed and are knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to smogging and different options one may have. I highly recommend these guys. I always leave happy.

Check on some car problems, place was closed.

The service at Mikes shop is absolutely top notch. From smog testing to service and maintenance Mike and his crew have kept 3 generations of my families vehicles running strong, including this guys Ford 150 with over 250,000 miles on it.Highly recommend

These guys are just the best. Personal service. Its almost a throwback to how business used to be done. Reasonable prices.

They are a great shop. Family has used them for years. They have done multiple of our families cars and trucks. Wouldnt go anywhere else

Always down to earth and helpful. Mike is a very competent owner who never sells you things you dont need. The price is always reasonable, affordable and fair. I will be a customer for life. They do all sorts of car repair, maintenance and as a bonus they do all things smog related. P.S. Justin is so helpful and help makes the process virtually painless. Thanks guys

This is a really good automotive repair shop. Nice people that care about doing good work at a fair price. Ive had them do smog checks and AC work and I have friends that have had them do diagnostics and all sorts of repairs. Theyre good guys and I would recommend them to anyone.

Mike and co have been taking care of my vehicles for 30yrs. Great service, very knowledgeable mechanics, fair prices. Everyone I recommend to them come away satisfied. Hard to find honest people like these guys today!

Winter Gardens Auto, its not often that you hear the words ((Honest Mechanic)) in the same sentence!!!. Im telling you thats exactly what they are. Theyre honest, good-hearted, hard-working, pillars, of the community. Im not sure exactly how many years theyve been in business, they have been here the entire time Ive lived here. Winter Gardens Auto was very highly recommended to me, I am passing that high recommendation on to whomever is reading this. I guarantee you Justin and Mike are honest and if they can help you they will. What I mean by that is some things just have to go back to the dealership and thats life but theyll tell you theyre not going to take your money and not fix it for you if it needs to go to the dealer and theyll tell you it needs to go to the dealer.

I had a great experience today..nice guys ..got me in and out. I would recommend to everone

Mike and Justin @ Wintergardens Smog & Tune are always looking out for me and my family (3 generations). They fair, honest, and reliable. Their mechanics do exceptional work and communicate what is needed and things that need to be done on next visit.

Always honest and fair. Not trying to upsell unnecessary service. Fully trusted.

Walked in needing a smog, they had just gone on their lunch break, but the tech said to bring it on in, and they got it done right then for me. Friendly and professional. Definitely going back for any shop work my Prius may need.

Great place !! Me and wife have been going here for years!! They always treat us good!! Mike and justin are very honest and professional !! We give them 5 STAR PLUS!!!

Received great customer service from Justin. Mike the owner thoroughly explained my vehicle’s service findings. I was extremely pleased no high pressure to unnecessarily spend money on repairs. I will definitely continue to do business with them.

The most honest mechanics Ive ever gone to. My entire family (including parents, sibling, cousins etc) has been going to Wintergardens Smog for about 10 years now. Have never had a bad experience.

All good work great

Quick, caring service at a great price. What could be better? Mike and Justin will bend over backward to help out.

What can I say but highly recommend them. Know their stuff, are quick and priced right. Been going here for a couple years and they get it done right the first time. Just awesome.

The best shop ever, I always recommend this place to everyone I know. Justin and Mike are legit, very honest guys and charge very reasonable rates.

Best mechanics around. Theyre know what theyre doing and prices are very reasonable. i would recommend them to anyone in need of their services

Fantastic experience everytime I go in. Theyre amazing and very honest, and charge a very good rate.

This is the BEST Vehicle Repair Facility in East County. I am a mechanic and choose to have them do my cars and trucks. They have serviced my mothers and mother in laws cars for years also. Whenever someone asks about a Quality Repair Shop, these are the guys I recommend.

Another great visit with Winter Gardens Smog and Tune! Thanks Mike and Justin for taking such great care of my car babies!I have trusted Mike and his staff with my cars since 1997! He does an excellent job and is reasonably priced which is a bonus! :)

I highly recommend these guys at Wintergardens Smog and Tune. Theyve always been up front about the work Ive needed on all cars in my family. I looked high and low for mechanics I could trust after mine had retired. These guys are Great!! Please check them out if you want honesty, and good work.

It is always a pleasure to take my vehicles to Mike and the guys. I know that they will take the time to go the extra mile to make sure everything is in good working order. Thanks Guys

No nonsense mechanic. Does everything, even electrical, project cars. Advised me about a vehicle I was buying, and saved me a ton of trouble.

9/18 called and spoke to Mike got price and found out if they could do smog.. Called back and made appt but mike said had to be following week cause he said sometimes machine he needs for older cars doesnt alwayswork so appt for 10am Tues 9/24...took car in this morning and he REFUSED towork on it said he doesnt work on older cars.. Explained he knew it was a 1999when appt was made..finally said he only smogs previous customers cars. Had I known that I wouldnt have wasted my time. Also he took another customer that arrived after us first saying they were in a hurry (the guy said he wasnt) even though we had an appointment! Plus after still refusing to smog car told us we could go down the street to a different smogstation. Called BAR when got home and was told a star station shouldnt pick and choose what cars he works on. Im new to the area looking for a shop and now you couldnt pay me to take my car there!!! BEWARE!

Took my Jag in for a Smog and Oil change and they took excellent care of my vehicle and had it done quickly and professionally. Im going back whenever my car needs anything. Thanks Mike and Justin appreciate your work!

I took my car in for a 2nd opinion; now theyre my Go-To! Great experience, very helpful.

These guys are the best! we take both our cars there and recommend them to all our family and friends!

These guys are great. I have taken all of my cars there for years now. Very honest. They have done everything from breaks, smogs, and the dreaded check engine light issues. They have a customer for life.

Great service, honest work, fair prices and very convenient.

Great knowledge guys who charge very reasonably.

Fast service. Friendly staff.

Best service in East county!

Mark is the most thoughtful technician and I will take my cars no where else to get smogged.

Took truck in told them the problem they figured it out told me and got it done and the truck runs great now thanks guys great job

Excellent as always !!!

Soooo I went to take my jeep in for major oil leak in front of engine block, $740 later it needed new seal at front of engine block. Drive away and 2 days later Im having the same problem. Take it back to them and they say theres too much play in the crank so you need a new engine block... $3600. I say ok, can you refund some of the $740 since you basically didnt do your job as a mechanic. He said nope! Ridiculous, go to a mechanic who knows what hes doing.

Great staff and always eager to please especially Big Mike

Cant say enough good things about this Wintergardens Smog & Tune. They do *great work at a *fair price and they stand behind their work. I have 3 vehicles serviced at this place. They have a customer for life.
