My 2008 Mazda MX5 Miata is back on the road!I recently found myself in need of automotive assistance for my 2008 Mazda Miata's broken differential, and I couldn't have been luckier to stumble upon Automotive Specialist. From the outset, their dedication to exceptional customer service was evident, making my experience with them truly outstanding.As someone juggling a demanding work schedule, I deeply appreciated Automotive Specialist's responsiveness over the phone. They understood the value of my time and promptly addressed my concerns, making the scheduling process a breeze. Their willingness to accommodate my busy schedule set the tone for what was to be an exceptional customer service experience.What truly impressed me, however, was the lightning-fast turnaround time of the repairs. Despite the complexity of the issue, Automotive Specialist wasted no time in getting to work, demonstrating their efficiency and proficiency. Within no time, my Mazda Miata was back on the road, performing flawlessly thanks to their expert craftsmanship.If you find yourself in need of automotive assistance, look no further than Automotive Specialist they are a true gem in the industry.

I loved how thorough the shop was. I brought it in for my original concern (which they diagnosed) but mentioned some other issues. They told me it was not urgent to address the other issues but that they are coming up soon. I appreciated that they didn't tell me I had to fix everything immediately.Mike, at the desk, is amazing. Super friendly and awesome!I recommended the shop to my neighbor (who also had a great experience) and highly recommend it to everyone else.

These guys are the best bottom line. Most pleasurable customer service I ve ever experienced. They have gone above and beyond to work with me in Servicing my 2014 Ram 1500 and helping me tremendously in getting my 2005 WRX on the road. Top notch technicians that can practically work on anything! They even have an amazing shuttle service that you don t really hear of. Thanks again guys. I wouldn t bring my vehicles anywhere else!Services: Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Engine repair, Vehicle Inspection, Oil change

Worked with Jay. Very helpful and professional. He had his team diagnose my issues and reported back to me quickly. He ordered the parts I needed and got the job done. And got it done faster than I expected. I would highly recommend Auto-Spec for any future car repairs.

Prompt explanation of proposed work needed, good communication with the service manager and fair cost for the repairs and maintenance. The work is done well and they never try to push unnecessary additional work. The shop also provides a convenient shuttle service. I ve used Automotive Specialist over 15 years for all our vehicles.

I had to replace most of the exhaust system on my older vehicle. I visited two other shops before I found Mike with Automotive Specialists. He was straightforward, truthful, fair, and very thorough. I cannot recommend this shop enough, especially for older, classic, or harder repairs. Thanks again for all the great work!

This is one of the best auto mechanic shops in Austin. They are honest and reasonably priced. They identify problems and some that can wait. I like that honesty. Ray has been helping me with three cars for the last 12 years. I highly recommend this shop.Services: Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Steering & suspension replacement, Auto brake repair, Transmission replacement, A/C installation & repair, Vehicle safety inspection, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Oil changeServices: Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Steering & suspension replacement, Auto brake repair, Transmission replacement, A/C installation & repair, Vehicle safety inspection, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Oil change

My Check Engine light came on while I was driving. My normal auto shop was booked up for the whole week. I saw a post on People of Round Rock about the best automobile mechanics and Auto-Spec was the outstanding favorite. I called Auto-Spec and was able to bring in my car for a diagnostic test the same day. Communication was great along the way, and I was able to drop off and pick up my car the same day with the automotive work complete.

Shout out to Mike and Auto Spec Round Rock! They have done a great job in the past of installing aftermarket performance parts on my beloved sports car. Unfortunately in mid April I was involved in an accident and a national brand collision center could not figure out why my right wheel was rubbing after their repair. 3.5 months later the collision center finally took it to Auto Spec and Mike made it a priority to address the problem and get my car back on the road. A million thanks to Mike!!!

I give you 5 stars for being fast on diagnostics and courteous, however, overall 1 star. Yall came highly recommended by 2 long time customers and an old friend of John's. I was told yall were honest and fair. I was extremely disappointed when quoted almost what the dealership would charge to repair my car. Especially when 2 other local shops quoted me HALF of what you did! Price gouging is the way to lose a lot of business, and I will be taking mine elsewhere for this repair and any future repairs.

We have been working with Auto Specialists to replace our Ford F-150 dashboard that the emergency brake light kept staying on. They searched far and wide twice and those too ended up doing the same thing. We needed to try another time to find the needed dash but due to circumstances beyond our control we were unable to get in for quite awhile. They went above and beyond to help us and we are beyond thankful for Mike and Ray and their staff!

These folks are consistently excellent! They are straight shooters, no nonsense. I see many types of vehicles there, and they happen to have particularly skilled in Mazda Miatas, including those all the way back to 1990. They get our highest rating and many thanks.Services: Auto battery maintenance, A/C installation & repair, Auto maintenanceServices: Auto battery maintenance, A/C installation & repair, Auto maintenance

Auto Spec in round rock is absolutely the best and most honest mechanic shop that I have ever known. Been using them since I moved to Texas 6 yrs ago. I no longer live right around the corner but still make the trip(and pass 500 auto shops on the way) to see them when I need repairs. They have drummed up a lot of business and loyal customers like me over the years so be prepared to wait your turn in line. I don t take my car anywhere else unless I m traveling and absolutely have to !Service: General repairs & maintenance

I needed a second opinion for a problem I believed was caused by the dealership s service. Ray accepted the challenge, was timely with information, and told me exactly what I needed to know. (The dealership was responsible!) For any future service in my car, I will definitely return to Auto-Spec!

These guys are amazing, I've been taking all my cars to them for years. Now I drive a Tesla Model 3 and I still take my vehicle here for yearly inspections. It was crazy fast! They are the best. They are always busy which shows how good they are so make sure to make an appointment first and be early to find a parking spot.

For years I have used Automotive Specialist. They are honest, pretty quick with repairs and at a fair cost to do the work. I have been at other shops that tell me I need lots of work, but come here and it s usually a simple fix at a much lower cost because it s not multiple items being replaced. You will be highly satisfied with Automotive Specialist, guaranteed.Services: Transmission, Electrical repair

My clutch gave out and my friend recommended this shop. They were awesome! Mike explained what was wrong, what my options were and answered all my questions. He was patient, clear about costs, needed parts, and set clear timeline expectations. Excellent communication and they even have a shuttle that picked me up when my car was ready. They were friendly and professional but most important, I walked out of there trusting them. I highly recommend them!Service: Transmission
