Mechanix Autoworks

Mark Levatino, the sole proprietor, is the most knowlegable repair person I have ever met. I brought my sons 2005 BMW 330 with 95,000 miles to him, after another repair show said I needed a new tranny at approx $5-$6,000...He had the car for three weeks pouring over internet sites and blogs, trying to see if, in fact, this was the case. He networks with others who may have a bit more expertise in a certain make or model car. After consulting his network, what they found was that there was an outstanding TSB (technical services bulletin), which for those not privy, is basically a step down from a recall where the consumer is notified..The TSB is only distributed to authorized repair facilities, as it is not a "dangerous" or safety concern. The kit the TSB recommended was $150.00, and it cost me $1,000 out the door for 3 weeks of Mark's time. The car has 120,000 miles on it now, and runs unbelievable. You may not be impressed with where the business is, or the cleanliness of the place, but please dont judge a book by its cover... Mark knows his stuff better than the technicians who work at the dealerships.

Proprietor Mark Valetino is perfectly credible, confident and competent. He did a great job rebuilding and setting up the Carter 2-bbl carburetor on my '77 Plymouth slant-six engine.
