Berkeley Auto Repair

I have a healthy fear of auto repair shops after a handful of bad experiences. Oceanworks completely changed my outlook. They were professional and courteous, making the entire process painless. I will never use another shop.

This is a great shop!! Honest assessments and the team works hard to diagnose issues. We have now used them twice and have very please with our experience they went above and beyond to get to the problem. Highly recommend!

I was satisfied with the service and surprisingly impressed that when paying for the bill, one of the service reps at the desk noticed an issue that part number was transposed causing an increase in cost to my bill and saved me quite a bit of money. That alone has cleared any doubt and I will come back to Oceanworks for any future oil changes and other auto maintenance for my car.

I have been going to Oceanworks since before 2000. Angus, Natalie and crew kept my 1997 Acura TL going for more than 260,000 miles and 20 years. It was by far, my favorite car! (The person I sold it to says it runs remarkably well and is still driving it . ) Brian is now the new owner and I just had my 2007 TL serviced at Oceanworks. He and his team, comprised of Billy and Rich (superstar mechanic) had to do a major service to it and the car runs like it's brand new. I'll miss Angus, Natalie and Mikey, but I am happy that Oceanworks has found a new crew that will allow me to drive my 2007 to 2027. Thank you, Brian and team, for maintaining the quality I've come to expect and appreciate at Oceanworks!

Oceanworks is the place you can trust with your vehicle. My partner wouldn't let me buy a vehicle that they don't service. I had my pre purchase inspections done by them. They were very thorough with the inspections and honest about the condition of the cars. I brought my Forester in for an oil change and they had me out in just one hour

Great, honest, timely service!

Best automotive repair shop in the east bay!

I took my car here twice, first time to repair brakes there were rusted up from the decade of winters and seasons in Chicago. Job well done. This last time was another thing entirely, since it was a story of revival, or more aptly in October, resurrection. Basically, some components of the engine assembly were rusted and worn out and failing. Car was dead. Won't start. It happens. Some of them were overdue for inspection and replacement, my bad. It required only a few parts to replace and tune up for the fix. I took it another place I shall not name down the street where I was told the engine is "dead, it won't turn. It is an older engine and not a very common car thus is $3k plus labor it would be $4k total. or. we can buy it for $200." Dead. Silence. I knew something was up, had it towed here to get it checked out, professionally, and so glad I did. The engine does turn now. Turns out is was mainly the A/C compressor being frozen, not allowing the engine to turn over. Also, the acc belt tensioner assy. Either way, whatever it was, they did it, worked fast, and accommodated the tow truck, ordering parts to ship is to the shop and constant communication throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend Oceanworks for any auto, mechanical, electrical, tuning up, whatever your needs are, this is the auto shop!
