I would give them 10 stars if I could. Simply the best!
Finest Mechanics in the Greater Baltimore Area. They treat everyone like family.
I wish I could give AYDs more than 5 stars. Will (owner) & his gang are honest/responsive, affordable, and will not try to to sell you on unnecessary repairs. This is the first experience Ive had with a mechanic that Ive completely trusted, and have never once felt taken advantage of. I have a 1970 VW Westfalia Bus, and it doesnt matter what the problem was, they were able to fix the issue in less than a week.Will, Alex, and Kenny - I want to thank you for being so gracious over the past year, theres no one better than you guys. Thanks again for all that youve done.
Great experience taking my car there. I drive a 25 year Oldsmobile - not only can I count on Ayd to fix her up as needed, but they also recognize shes an old girl and dont try to sell me unnecessary things.
Prompt. Good communication. Honest about what problems needed fixing and which werent critical. Reasonably priced.
I have nothing but good things to say about this shop. People still appreciate good quality service along with honesty, and I feel they deliver that every time. I never second guess the recommendations that I have received from the owner. He has helped nurse my almost 200,000 mile car back to life!!! When others told me to trash the car, AYD said that wasn’t necessary. I just had a few small issues that needed to be addressed and so far my choice to listen to that advice has paid off. I am so glad that my father told me to go to this shop, it has been a lifesaver.
Will and his team were great. Fast, friendly service at a great price. Already recommended Ayd Auto to friends. Thanks!
After 19 with the same shop and mechanics, I was looking for the next reliable, honest and fair-priced shop. FOUND IT! Took vehicle in for Check Engine light and owner told me what was existing with my exhaust system and what he recommended providing me with two options and an estimate. Also, mentioned that I had an oil leak and did not pressure me to get that service done that day. Receptionist nice and friendly. I went in on a recommendation and now recommend the place myself. If you need to wait there is a place to sit or walk around. Lunch places with walking distances. Sometimes you have to go out of your way to find a good thing... and thats just what I did.
Completely genuine and honest. Was told from another mechanic that it would cost $1700 for repairs, Will at Ayd Automotive did the job for $68
So grateful to have a mechanic that is genuinely interested in doing the best thing for his customers! Excellent service!
I had to get new tires and Willie recommended where to buy them from so I saved a lot of money right off the bat. Installation was quick. I needed new wiper blades and the brand they recommended and ordered for me are very nice and quiet as they glide across. I can tell its a quality product. My car drives smooth like new now with the new tires. Ayd Automotive is very professional, they know cars, all makes and models, inside and out and they wont give you the run around on pricing. Definitely recommend them for your car repairs.
AYD works on almost every car. Their specialty is foreign cars. They are great with Porsche and jaguars. I would recommend this shop to everyone, but dont be surprised. It is a small shop hidden away in Dundalk. I drove by it for years and never knew it was there.
Very knowledgeable and honest.
Awesome independent shop. Great personnel, work performed correctly the first time. Highly recommend
I live in Harford county but take my old Chevrolets to Ayd Automotive. Ive had only positive experiences with Ayd.
We live in Hunt Valley and have been taking our cars to Ayd since we started buying Audis. Ayd is very diligent, service oriented and fair. They have the technology to work on German vechilces and lot of other brands. Mr. Ayd is honest and a very reputable mechanic, his sister Dolly will make you feel like family!
Very honest shop. I definitely recommend co.ing here for your auto needs.
Ayd has been our go to for over 10 years now. We learned the hard way like most and it took a solid year to find a reliable and trustworthy mechanic. He doesnt waste your time and is able to fix and diagnose rather quickly. Its nice to feel like you have a friend in the business and the family owned feel is extremely welcoming and often overlooked. Ayd is extremely knowledgeable with the ability to work on German cars without overcharging because of it. We were actually recommended by an audi dealerships mechanic that felt bad about the ripping off that had happened to us. He suggested Ayd as he used him for his and his wifes cars. We have had a BMW and Volks as well as our trucks and Mazda worked on by ayd. He is a great mechanic that is honest, professional, knowledgeable and affordable. We will continue doing business and recommending Ayd .
After a long search for an auto body shop other than the dealer, a friend suggested AYD Automotive. I took my 2004 Mercedes Kompressor to have the Power Steering Pump replaced also a air pressure hose. Well let me tell you the service was impeccable, they went way far and beyond the standard customer service I wont get into to much detail, but I was very impressed with the HONESTY and understanding of my issues. I highly recommend taking your car there, I PLAN TO AGAIN! Thanks Will and Dolly
The best mechanic a guy could know...👌
Ayd is like family they are great people. Very honest and they dont try ti rip you off. He has worked on my german cars since i been buying them. Hr doesnt try and squeeze every dollar out if you. Dolly is a sweetheart anf Willie knows his cars.
Will is friendly and fair on his prices. He stands behind his work.
