This place is amazing, gave me a great price for my alternator, were on time with the ETA of my service and Dennis is absolutely amazing . I would recommend calling about an estimate so you know what youll be spending cause they do great work. My car is running no indicator lights on dashboard anymore. I am beyond thrilled to have my car back so quickly.

Dennis provided straight forward and honest service to my old Nissan 300ZX. I couldnt pass smog and he completely inspected and diagnosed my car. He helped tune up my car and was able to pass. Pay this shop a visit before you spend money elsewhere.

I highly recommend this place. Very friendly and professional. I’ve been here twice and every time I go, I’m never upset . They always go above and beyond for me. That’s why I will never look elsewhere. They are super close to me, walking distance. From now on, they will be my only go to (Mechanic) P&W Auto service and smog you guys are the best .We all know, it’s really hard to trust mechanics, because all they want is money . Not this company, they are all about honesty and perseverance. They are here for us to help us out. Specially in this pandemic we are all going through. (Dennis) is the best mechanic ever. Love you guys….

I discovered P&W through positive reviews via Google and Yelp. I was searching for a new mechanic for my 15yr old car that needed some TLC. As an Alhambra native I found P&W and from the very first visit, Dennis and his team were professional, honest and direct. Everything I was looking for in an auto shop. They guarantee all their work and are very fair in their pricing for the excellent work they do.I highly recommend! Keep up the great work P&W!!!!

I was referred to Dennis by a coworker and thought I would give him a try. I am so glad I did! He was able to assess what was wrong with my truck and he was very reasonable with the price. I’m very pleased with his work and my truck hasn’t run this good since the first day I drove it off the lot. Thank you Dennis!

Dennis, the owner and his crew are excellent. I took my 1994 Chevy c2500 to them because I needed my ball joints, oil pan gasket, power steering hose, and gear box worked on. I was also on a very tight schedule and Dennis assured me that my truck will be ready in a timely manner. Not only did he keep his word, my truck drives great again! I was struggling to find a trustworthy mechanic Shop, but I finally found it. If you’re looking for great customer service and honest work, P&W Auto Services is the spot!

Always a pleasure when you can go to an automotive service and be treated with RESPECT. This establishment is a jewel for the automotive business.Thank you GentlemenGeorge C

Nice and friendly. BUT dropped off 1984 mustang. He parked it in the back and did nothing to it. If you have a BMW Take it to As garage in Monterey Park Alvin is the best in the San Gabriel Valley

Dennis the owner is amazing, sincere service and humble. Great work and great price. Being a single father is not cheap and I needed to get my brakes and rotors done and could only afford so much, he was able to help me. From now on, Im getting all my car work done here and recommend him to everyone. My girlfriend will also start taking her car here too. Hes awesome!!!!

Update 5/5/2021 - went to get my car fixed because my engine light and other light went off. As usual, explained to me thoroughly what happened and what needed to be done. Thank you!!Usually my car has a little fixing to do once a year. Dennis is so kind, communicative through his platforms whether it be yelp or Facebook, honest and trustworthy. I needed to get my sunvisor fixed since it popped out completely (even my friend who popped it back in couldnt make it last for a while) as well as the under car shield. Lo’ and behold, it was all tightly fixed and perfect. They do such and amazing job here

Dennis always helps me out. Very knowledgeable and trustworthy. Will always come here for repairs and smog. The smog process is very quick and lets you know whats going on. He will answer any questions you will have about it too.

P&W is one of the best mechanic shops I can recommend to everyone for great service. Dennis will take care of you 100% he will tell you with details what the problem is. In the process, he will send you progress pictures. He already worked on my BMW and my sisters Toyota and we are extremely thankful for his service. Dont let some of those negative reviews stop you from coming here, those our customers that are lying about this place especially the guy complaining about his bmw being damage. Please give them a chance you wont regret it, I know I will be coming soon for my other car in the next couple of weeks. Thank you Dennis for all your help may God bless you, your family, and your business 👍👍

Excellent experience looking for Quality Parts an excellent service stop by this shop

This is an updated review as to now I have a Pathfinder that even though had low mileage had some issues underneath... bad catalytic converter upon other things that needed repair because of normal wear and tear. Dennis provides great information and always willing to go the extra step. I really trust his work and will keep coming back. I support local family owned business and have referred him to family and friends. Thanks again for your hard work Dennis-----I have been dealing with bad breaks on my 2015 Jeep since it pretty much left the dealership. Not even the Jeep dealership or corporate could fix my break issue. I took my car to P& W Auto Service and smog test and right away Dennis helped me out. We discussed the history of the car and he gave his best recommendation. My parts were replaced with performance parts and now my Jeep drives with no scratchy breaks! Dennis also did a thorough inspection on my car and recommended on other parts getting fixed. P & W Auto Service will be my forever go to spot for my car issues. Your work speaks for itself and I will definitely be coming back for car services.We also took my sisters car for inspection and Dennis was straight forward and shared his professional recommendations. Gave my sister advise and we will follow through with it.Thank you for helping us out!I will continue to recommend friends and family. Thank you!

Me and my husband have been bringing our cars there for some years now. Family feeling with the best service and the best price always. Once our kids are driving theyll be taking there cars in when needed. Simple, Best Service Best Price, professional but Super friendly. Our Fmily will keep Going to for all Auto need, we even stop by for advice on little fixes and upgrades and we re never railroaded into some big expensive fix. Dennis thank you!

Been coming to Dennis for years every time he has been very helpful. I would take my cars nowhere else to get a smog check done. They have seating outside or inside with a/c. Great service, awesome personality. Will continue to bring him my business for years to come.

When I first purchased my truck, I went here to get my SMOG test. I now live further away from Alhambra and refuse to go anywhere else. Customer service goes a long a long way and he provides top of line service. Hes my new go to mechanic! Awesome service!

I’ve been a returning customer here for the past six months. Each visit has been honest, efficient, and skillfully done. The work done on my car holds great and there has been no need for re-repairs. I have an old car with a good amount of problems but Dennis has guided me through the options for my process, always with the freedom to choose how I go about my next step. They offer professional quality work for a great price.

Great services....very honest mechanic...will definitely refer all my peeps...good job Dennis..

When I first moved back to LA from the Bay Area, I had some car troubles and scrambled looking for a mechanic. I came across a couple highly rated mechanics in Alhambra and took a chance on P&W. I have never looked back since. Dennis does a tremendous job with my vehicle and I have never worried about being offered mechanical work I didn’t need or being overcharged. He shows you exactly whats wrong with your car and even offers to give you the old parts after he’s done if you even feel the need to investigate further.I wouldn’t recommend any other mechanic and this is coming from someone whose had it towed from as far as Santa Monica just to ensure quality, trustworthy work. 5 stars all around!

I would like to thank P&W Auto Services for the oil change I took my car in for earlier today. Feels good to drive a car knowing it has clean oil and no maintenance lights on. Also fixed my tire pressure issue and informed me to have my back breaks looked at, which I most likely will be taking it there for service again. Might I mention in this heat they have a well air conditioned office to wait in. Phew thanks once again to everyone there at P&W Auto Service and Smog Test. 🙌🏼👨🏽‍🔧

Searched for a shop near where I lived and found this place.First, before even going, I called and talked to Dennis and asked for a quote. He gave the most reasonable and affordable price after hours of browsing for other places. Then, instead of calling, I texted him on their facebook page and guess what? I was so surprised that someone actually replied me there and he replied the moment he read the text. I wanna say that this place communicates with you very well.Then when I took my car there, not just Dennis greeted me, his Family was there too and they were super nice and friendly.Another thing what I liked about this place is that they actually inform you on what other problems your car has and will provide pictures of the damaged stuff if you request for it. They will recommend to you on what needs to be worked on and will give you affordable prices. Not like other places, they dont even force you to do the recommended if you don;t want to.List of things I did:Water PumpTiming BeltFront brakesOil PanTransmission PanRadiator hoseOil ChangeBrake Switch (Dennis was nice enough to not even charge me on this one)Dropped my car off on Friday evening then got it back ready Tuesday morning. They did the job really well and super fast. Just to point out, my car was not moving for like a year and was in a very bad condition. After taking it to this place, it was running again smooth like a champ.To finalize, I would highly recommend this place to everyone. They are super nice, honest, communicate with you well, affordable, reasonable, and the quality of their work is is the best I have ever experienced.Stop wasting time browsing for other places. THIS IS WHERE YOU GUYS WANNA TAKE YOUR CAR TO GET WORKED ON OR EVEN FOR SMOG....!!!!!!!!

Great service 👍

Fast, easy, and at a great price!! By far the best and easiest smog Ive had done, I definitely recommend it 👍🏼

This is one of the best auto electric shop. Dennis is very kind and the price is razonable... I recommend this place a lot... great service and knowledge from the people who work there

Great service every time. Thanks Dennis

Wow. Where do I start? Dennis and his dad are simply the best in every way. I have a 1988 grand Wagoneer. I called dozens of places and literally everyone I talked to had a bad attitude or didnt want to work on it because it is carbureted and so old. Finally, I simply said to myself that if I came across anyone who was simply polite, Id go with them. Dennis was cool from the very beginning, so I gave them a shot. I knew the repairs would be extensive and I couldnt believe so many mechanics didnt want thousands of dollars of business. They got to work right away, but they gave me some bad news... the car was missing almost the entire emissions system! Not only were they going to have to work on the car for weeks, but they were going to have to work on locating rare parts on Ebay. After informing me of this, Im expecting to hear sorry, we cant work on the car. I was completely wrong. Dennis spent the time to do the tedious job of finding parts on Ebay and specialty shops. And they kept the car in their shop this entire time. It took almost a month (and I dont know how many hours of extra work they DIDNT charge me for, like looking up old jeep manuals, reading online forums, etc.) and now I can finally drive this classic. They gave me a great price and to be honest, I dont know how many mechanics anywhere would have undertaken this project knowing what they were ultimately going to make off of it. Dennis was awesome the entire time, they walked me through everything they were doing, and he never once rushed through a conversation or a visit. I never felt like I was bothering him. In fact, he and his dad were very proud of all the work they did and were happy to show me all the repairs and old parts they replaced. And again, this is on a 30 year old classic car that no one else wanted to touch.Dennis and his dad earned a customer for life. Now I can cruise around in the car from Narcos, and I didnt need to spend money like a narco to do it. I wont go anywhere else and neither should you!

Super friendly, honest and approachable guy! Brought my 85 VW Cabrio in for smog work and got everything sorted out in a timely fashion, highly recommend!

Best service, best price. 🤱, My husband and I have taken 3 different cars there for numerous reasons and all have come back excellent, plus, Weve gotten advice from staff there that has saved us money and helped us avoid unnecessary repairs. I was there yesterday with one of my cars we have 2 used for uber hevy. We will continue to bring our cars there and once the kids are driving they will do the same. Hey Dennis thank you guys!!!! Family feeling at P&W #1 in town hands down.

Needed a serious change on my breaks. My rotors where damaged. Dennis immediately assisted me and got them done in no time!! Pricing is great 👍🏼. Customer service is amazing. Was greeted as soon as I pulled up. Need your breaks or smog check Dennis is seriously the person to go too! Definitely will be going back for any other services I need!

Good honest work, able to finish my car in a timely manner. I take both my family Honda and Camaro for services.

Dennis got my car working back to normal when it was running sluggish.Did my tune up,adjusted my power steering,changed my lower controll arms and also my oxygen sensor,thank u soo much

My wife’s 2011 Sonata had check engine light on and it needed smog to get tags. Use to work in the automotive industry and took her car to a couple mechanics that use to work at my stores. They would get light off tell me it’s good for smog then bing lights back on. Finally I remembered Dennis not only does smog but repairs as well. So I called him up and he told me to bring it over. He fit her car right in his schedule and repaired the car correctly and was very affordable!!! He got the PERMANENT light off that was deep inside the cars ECU. Car is driving like a champ up and down the cajon pass daily. We live in Hesperia and any issues with Wifes car, my truck or suburban goes down to Alhambra to the MAN!!!I HIGHLY recomend you take your car to Dennis if you need anything. Dennis takes pride in what he does on a daily. When he got the problem fixed correctly on my wife’s car, I honestly don’t know who was happier him or my wife LOL. You don’t get that joy from someone that hates working on cars. Take your vehicles to Dennis he loves his job and it shows thru his work.

So 2day I was looking for a great place to Take my vehicle to get a smog check . I Google Search and brought me to this great place ! .. great and fast costumer service . . Please ask for Dennis . And people ! Only 45 bucks !!!

Came in for a smog check and it failed due to a evap leak. Dennis diagnose the problem and fixed the leak and it passed the smog check. The price is reasonable and the technicians are friendly and will do their best to help you out. If youre in the area, you should give this shop a try. I will be coming back for my next smog check.

Dennis is the Man.. No payment required until you Pass! He also runs engine fault codes with a full out garage if you need it. ...Just moved to Alhambra and used another guy that charged $50 pass or fail with no other help what-so-ever. Dennis @ P&W Auto Service all the way...

Was happy with my work that needed to be done done on my vehicle..Dennis is a great mechanic and timing was perfect. If you need services for your vehicle I highly recomend. P&w for sure.

Left my car for repairs claiming he could fix my hardtop convertible install a molding and he caused more damage to my convertible top. I needed to take it to BMW dealer so they can repair all his damages. Plus my doors were all banged up and scratched + my hood and my front bumper and he couldnt man up to the damages. It cost more out of my pocket to repair his damages to my BMW. Very dishonest person Al. If you do decide to take your vehicle there take pictures and video of your vehicle but with my experience I suggest you go somewhere else. Al wont admit to any damages to your car if being left over inside his shop. A very dishonest shop to take your vehicle to get repaired he also did a friend of mine wrong. Pathetic & Wicked Auto Service. He did say he was pleasing and impressing me.... WOW.... REALLY!!!! AL....

Great service low price in town I’ve looked around and I’m not disappointed.

Very good service. Mr. Al and the mechanics knows about cars. Recommended

Came for a smog check. Great service for a reasonable price. Quick and efficient!

P&W is your 1 stop shop for your car. From Smog Checks.tune-ups to overhauling engines they are a family owned business that are honest people show you all the old parts that were changed & give you All the advise to keep your car running 🍒. Ask for Dennis & he’ll take care of you 💯%!!!

I drive from the 405 all the way to alhambra for Dennis once I found out how great he is, when I swung nearby for a doctor’s appointment. You can tell he’s an honest person and he shows you what parts of the car needs fixing and explains it to you. And I never need a followup (ie. i’ve been to other mechanics before and a problem usually arises from my car a few weeks later so who knows what they really did). I got my Toyota tuned up thanks to him!!

Dennis was great, very friendly great customer service I was in and out in no time. Besides being quick very affordable and great customer service with a big smile

Dennis is honest and fair very professional. Unlike other local smog shops P&W did not try and sell us a muffler, catalytic converter. Long time Alhambra Resident do yourself a favor dont waste your MONEY elsewhere!

I live in Alhambra but whether you live nearby or not to get your work done By honest mechanic is absolutely worth putting this review up so someone else can benefit from P&W. Theyve Fixed to of my vehicles and have them running strong and quiet. Super Exited to continue to take my XB back for more up grades🏆. YOU WONT FIND A BETTER DEAL FOR THIS KIND OF EXCELLENT WORK AND SERVICE! You will see the fix, what was broken or replaced on your car you can see after. Its just a great feeling driving of, you got best price and your car is right! I work full time at a hospital and also drive uber in my 2009 XB. My car is tight now. TRD! Thank you Dennis and staff. See you soon for more up upgrades.

Very professional, check them out if u want top quality work, much easier and faster then the dealership.

Dennis will get your vehicle smogged. Appointments are recommended. Prices are reasonable.

Love this place they do great haircuts

Sorry how the service was real good but I forgot it was another place that I was talking about earlierwell

Great service, called one afternoon for a smog check and was done in under a hr 👍

Al is goodThe car car part was $ 100 cheaper at AutoZoneLabour charge was not badAlways do research before committing to what the mechanic tells you

This review is for the U-Haul store they have.This location closes on weekends (open Saturdays 9am to 1pm only). We found out when we got there to pick up the truck, if I knew this I wouldnt have reserved it in the first place. My mistake was assuming it will be open for the busiest time of the month for renting trucks, which is the last and first day of the month, silly me. If you dont got there on time to return the truck you have to park it on the street but Alhambra have restrictions to park overnight. Especially for new people moving to the area that dont know the city parking rules.I have a disabled placard but the city has restrictions for commercial trucks to park overnight also, so I got a ticket overnight. The employee didnt warned us specifically for the commercial truck restrictions either.They had a parking lot but it is gated and locked, they should provide a key to their customers to drop off the U-Haul truck after hours due to their lazy business hours.

Came here for a smog check. They are very friendly. The service was excellent and prompt.

Dennis took care of my problem on my 98 camry !! Good service

Thank you so much for the service and for a great customer service.

Al is great! Turkey wants to help without ripping you off.

When my car wouldnt start this morning I knew there was only one place to go and I was back on the road before dinner

Left my car in their lot while utilizing a uhaul rented there. Came back and the right side if my car is all banged up

Great place and fast too.

Great work and excellent service.

Needed a smog check in the area and found P&W at the top of Yelp’s list. Called and got Dennis who said It would only be a ten minute wait. $46 after a yelp review. Was done in fifteen minutes.
