“Fares did some major repairs on my GTI, including brakes, rear main seal and transmission fluid change. He is professional, capable and courteous. Despite the terrible weather he persevered, and got the job done. Very happy with his work.”Google review, five stars, August 2026
“Fares came by and did the brakes on my 2021 Lexus RX350. I got quoted way more at a shop so I decided to try a mobile mechanic instead. He showed up on time, did the work in my driveway, and everything went smoothly.”Google review, five stars, 2021 Lexus RX350
“Wonderful and quick experience, charged me way less than the dealer and he did the work in my driveway in the cold. I really appreciate all the hard work.”Google review, five stars

The check engine light could mean a $50 sensor or a $3,000 problem. I show up with professional diagnostic tools, read the codes, trace the actual root cause, and fix it. Not guess and replace parts until something works.
Most engine work I do doesn't require pulling the engine out. Oil leaks, sensor replacements, valve covers, ignition work, all doable in your driveway with the right knowledge and tools.
The most common oil leak on aging engines. BMW N54/N55 engines are notorious for this, the valve cover warps and leaks onto hot exhaust components. I clean, reseal, and torque to spec.
$200–$500Oil pan gasket, rear main seal, cam seals, timing cover. I trace the actual source. Honda K-series engines commonly leak from the VTEC solenoid gasket. I find it, I fix it.
$150–$800Stretched chains, worn tensioners, overdue belts. Preventive replacement before it snaps and destroys your engine. GM 5.3L AFM lifter issues often show up with timing symptoms first.
$400–$1,200Misfires, rough idle, poor fuel economy, plugs, coils, and wires done on-site. Often cheaper than a shop quotes, because I don't charge shop labour rates.
$100–$400Vacuum leaks, coolant intrusion, rough running. Diagnosed with a smoke machine and repaired properly.
$250–$700Full OBD-II scan plus hands-on diagnosis. I check live data, not just codes. Pending codes and freeze frame data included.
$80–$150Most engine issues don't require pulling the engine. Oil leaks, sensor replacements, valve cover jobs, timing work, all doable in your driveway with the right tools. I bring a full diagnostic kit and the knowledge to use it properly.
The biggest waste of money I see is people paying for full diagnostics at a dealer, getting a code read, and getting quoted $1,200 for a repair that costs $300 in parts and an hour of work. Dealers charge for the name on the sign.
BMW N54 and N55 engines almost always have a valve cover gasket leak by 100,000 km. It's a design issue, not a failure, just normal maintenance the dealer charges $800 for. Honda K-series VTEC solenoid gaskets are a $30 part and 45-minute job that shops charge $300 for. GM 5.3L AFM lifter problems are serious, if you have a GM truck with that engine and you're hearing a tick, don't wait.
A flashing check engine light means stop driving immediately. A steady light is less urgent but still needs attention. Don't drive for months on a steady light, the underlying issue can get worse and damage other components.
