I can not say enough about just how truly incredible and amazing Colin is! I called him about issues my daughter was having with her car and he was happy to take a look at it right away. He got her all fixed up the very next day and the car is driving better than ever! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Colin for getting her back on the road and giving me the peace of mind that she is safe now while driving! Customers for life!~Renee

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing exceptional service from Colin. My car's air conditioning was on the fritz, and after being disappointed by two other mechanics, I decided to give his shop a try. Not only was he able to fix the issue promptly, but he also did so with a level of politeness and courtesy that is hard to come by in the automotive industry. The prices were fair and transparent, and the quality of work surpassed my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend Colin to anyone in need of reliable car repairs.

Colin is amazing! He had all of my issues fixed in a few hours and my 2014 mustang is feeling brand new again! I asked Colin to give my car a full diagnostic and he was honest about what needed to be done to get her up and running since she had been sitting unused for about a year! Will never go anywhere else again! Support local!!!!

First time customer. Now a lifetime customer. Would like to say how wonderful an experience we had. My wife's car needed a blower motor. Colin had us bring it over. Was fixed in one day. Very reasonably priced as well. Love the fact that he answered the phone himself; got us the right price and did the job so fast. We will be back on all our cars. Thank you so much for such a great job.

Replaced rear brakes for me. I told Colin about some road noise I was hearing and he found a damaged wheel bearing while doing the brake job. This was a real good catch as a damaged wheel bearing is a big safety issue. He got me back on the road quickly for a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

Colin was amazing in getting my car fixed, my check engine light came on and he was able diagnose the problem, order the part, and fix my car in about an hour and the price was much less than I was expecting. I will definitely be using him again for any car issues.

So glad I found Colin. My Honda Pilot s transmission was slipping and shuddering (a known issue with the 2016-2017 model years) and I brought it to Thielman s. Colin triple flushed the transmission fluid and had me back up and running in the same day. Very pleased with the quality of service and the price!

Had a rusted out fuel tank bracket and rusted exhaust connections at the brackets. Colin was able to repair both in a time efficient window at a reasonable price. Thanks again for getting my 07 Tundra back on the road!!!

Had outrageous quotes from multiple shops to fix my TDI SportWagen before a buddy recommended Thielmans and I couldn't be happier with how my car came out! Colin and his guys worked around the clock on my car to get it back to me quick. Also had tons of communication along the way to keep me updated. I will definitely be taking all of my family's cars to him from now on!!

Colin ignored phone calls after being caught sabotaging transmission. Brought car in for engine misfire and Colin had disconnected a transmission fluid pressure sensor that wasn't anywhere near where the engine work was being completed. After talking with him about the transmission he said he would take a look and then ignored all phone calls. He is a shady mechanic and probably bought the reviews on Google. I would never recommend anybody to him.

Quick and efficient auto service! Had a check engine light on. Colin was able to schedule us within the week. Had our issue resolved by noon of the day we scheduled. Colin is very responsive via text. Give him a try the next time you are in need of a quality mechanic.

Talk about saving the day! I had been having issues with my car and couldn t put it off any longer so in a bind I reached out to Colin on a Saturday night. Not only did I receive a fast response, I was able to secure an appointment for a repair a few days later. He worked with my hectic schedule and literally had me on the road again in under an hour. I was pleasantly surprised and everything is still running smoothly weeks later. I m so happy I found an honest a trustworthy mechanic. I will be coming back that is for sure.

I reluctantly asked for help on my local community page. I was having trouble installing a radio. Colin Thielman, 1st to reply, offered to help me. Colin is a very intelligent, knowledgeable, responsible, mechanic /owner... hard to come by honest people these days. Colin went above and beyond helping me. Not only is my radio installed but I now found a local, honest mechanic... I can't thank you enough Colin.

As a owner of a 2010 Sierra truck I went to three different mechanics and i was told to get a new motor due to ticking ,which was a lifter problem. I saw all of Colins 5 star reviews, so i gave him a call and he diagnosed it as a lifter problem , but he could fix this. Don"t hesitate to call him . He is a , fair, timely, honest person. i have recommended him to many friends. My truck has been running likes its new. I found my new guy.

I sent my 2016 Nissan Rogue to shop and got it repaired (by the words of the mechanic) on March 12nd. The problem reported was the issue of the purge valve, which they did change for me. After I picked up the car, the engine light was on again when I was driving from NJ back to CT. I then texted the mechanic but did not receive any response.It was completely understandable if they were busy at the moment. However, I still did not get their responses after a few days, when I decided to send the car to a Nissan Dealership, who, reported the same issue of purge valve. This time, the Nissan Dealer got it right for me and informed me the purge valve Thielmans changed for me was a faulty one.Therefore, I texted and called them again to ask for communication. No one reached me back. While it is understandable that the repair they did is faulty, it is unacceptable they ignored their mistake and avoided my complains. I spent around 380 dollars not to get nothing; I asked either the repairing of my vehicle, or, at the least, since the first was not even accomplished, I asked they dealt the after-sale with attention and good will. Unfortunately, they did not show both.Given all the five stars comments on Google or Yelp, I chose to trust Thielmans. However, they made me deeply disappointed about their service. I have no idea why they treated me like this, but anyway, I am going to file a complaint to NJ government, and find my justice back.

This was the first time I've used Colin and I'm definitely going to keep him as my mechanic! I learned about Thielman's Auto Repair from positive reviews on Facebook and Google. I am here to say he is trustworthy, honest, kind, fair, and an excellent mechanic.

We need more mechanics like Thielmans! Life saver. Been trying to get the heat on my Jeep fixed for a while. Got a few ridiculous quotes and timelines.Thielmans were able to squeeze me in right away for a diagnosis, and more importantly was able to get me in the same day to fix my heat!! Decent place with very decent pricing too. I ll definitely be coming back to service my car and will be my first stop for anything else!

I couldn't be happier with the shop!We had an engine light pop on during a family vacation. It was late in the evening, and we weren't confident that there would be any shops open. This shop not only was open, they were willing to put our car's needs ahead of the other cars in the shop. We were back on the road a couple hours later and everything was back to normal!Very friendly! They knew their stuff! Honest and competent! The best!

I was truly in a horrible situation with being broken down and no car, but Colin was able to perform miracles and get me back up and running the same day. Excellent service, and very competitive pricing sets Colin apart from the others. I have already recommended him to others, and they have also had great experiences in dealing with Colin. Honest, fair and a overall nice guy is the best way to describe my interactions with him. I will be going back when needed...

I have so many good things to say about Colin and his excellent mechanical work! It is difficult to find an honest, reliable, and trustworthy mechanic and Colin meets all of those requirements. He has helped us numerous times with our cars, snow blower, and power washer. He treats our cars as if they are his and skips the unnecessary extra charges that you get anywhere else. I am so glad to support such a fantastic family owned business and you should too!Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Auto brake repair, Engine repair, Vehicle Inspection, Transmission repair, Auto emissions testing, Vehicle safety inspection, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Oil change

Fantastic auto shop! We ve brought our vehicle a couple of times for maintenance and repairs. He is honest and hardworking with very fair pricing. He won t try to sell you on extras or unnecessary work which we really appreciate. He makes himself available, and gets the work done in a timely manner. Highly recommend giving him a try!Services: Steering & suspension repair, Auto maintenance, Oil changeServices: Steering & suspension repair, Auto maintenance, Oil change

Colin was a lifesaver when the alternator on my van broke on the weekend. I called him as he was spending time with his family and he still got my car fixed within hours!!! It took longer for me to arrange a tow than it took Colin to get my much needed van back to me. If that's not enough he did it at an extremely fair price. He also gave me a break down of what should be fixed going forward and on what order with approximate pricing so I can prepare.I will be setting up appointments with Colin going forward for all my auto work and would highly recommend giving him a call for emergency repair and general maintenance. If you are looking for a reliable mechanic who is honest--Thielmans Auto is your place!!
