This has got to be the best automotive mechanic experience I've ever had.

The shop is owned by a man named Master Wong.  Yes, Master Wong.  Not Mister Wong.  If you call him Master Wong, I believe things will go much more smoothly for you.

I had to have my IACV taken out, deep cleaned and reinstalled.  Granted this is a procedure I could have done myself, but it's one that takes many hours as well as the know-how to remove components in your car that you may not be willing to take out by yourself.

In the end, it cost me $100.  Try going to a Midas and my estimate was over $300.

Master Wong also informed me of other things he noticed with my car that may cause problems.  He gave me the most cost effective and safe solutions possible (I checked with other mechanics of the same problem to see).

I'd totally recommend going here to get your car fixed.

Just a note, I spoke Mandarin with him and it does help out a bit.  Just a tidbit of information for you.

Awesome service. The owner, Ken, is really funny and very nice. I think he runs this shop with his family, or more like his two sons (?). I came here to get my car tuned up and get a coolant flush and Ken took care of everything to perfection. The only downside is Ken speaks little English so majority of the time his sons are always translating, but hey it's cool since he seems to know his stuff on mechanics :) Definitely a place to keep in mind and come to.
