Reasonably priced. Straightforward. Good service My only complaint is theyre not great at answering their phone. Despite that, I take my car there time and time again

Finally found a great mechanic who is also extremely Honest and Fair! I thought it wasn’t possible!!

I have fixed my car here many times. He is always really on point, honest and prices are also affordable.

Best mechanic shop Ive ever visited. Just honest people doing their best to get your car fix, no up sales or funny business. Always are packed with vehicles because of the quality of service. Ino the owner is the best!

I’m a first time car owner and it’s my first time bringing a car in. The owner spoke English fluently and was to the point. No upselling and he leaves you alone after the initial diagnosis. He seems to be well loved in the community as others dropped by to say hello. Was in and out pretty quickly and the price was less than I expected. The battery was a good brand and I appreciate a no frills approach. Will be coming back here!

Octanes has been my go to shop for several cars (5), for over 2 years. Repairs done right the first time, at a good price. The shop is always busy. They are in high demand.

I am a former engineer and a DIY mechanic opting to do my car repairs myself to save money. These repairs include replacing engine mounts, oil changes, CV axles, brakes, driver-side window repair, radiator, emission systems, hoses, belts, headlights, plugs, wires, ignition coils, door handles, seat belts, and more.That said, Octane Auto Repair is my Goto Shop when I need help. This shop has highly-qualified, certified, and experienced mechanics. They even work on Postal vehicles.In contrast, many consumer experiences with auto shops have often been negative. These are the shops with incompetent mechanics who do not troubleshoot replacing parts which are not defective, or charge extra labor hours not required.Octane Auto provides quality service at the best price of any auto shop I have ever worked with. You will always be accommodated fairly and their turn around time is fast considering the volume of repairs they do.

Fantastic service, affordable prices, very much no nonsense. They will not upsell you on stuff you dont need, they know what they are doing. As a result they are very busy, try to call ahead to make sure their garage has room!

Excellent service!!! extremely hard to find a honest skilled mechanic nowadays but Ino definitely surpassed that bar! great prices!! and the most important thing honest assessments! I brought my f150 like 4 times already and will keep bringing it!! highly recommend this place!

Best Auto shop in the area. Great customer service.

Best mechanic in Annandale.

While I rarely post reviews, I feel compelled to post my experience with Octane Auto. I had a different service provider change the oil in my Highlander. Driving away I noted a clicking sound coming from the engine, returned to the provider, but unfortunately they were unable to find the cause. Fortunately he recommended I go to Octane. In 5 minutes the mechanic at Octane diagnosed the problem and quickly fixed it, yet refused payment to repair the prior provider’s error. As an engineer I was impressed by his ability to quickly diagnose a hard to identify symptom, and as a customer I was impressed by his ethic. I think I found a new mechanic.

Great Service. I came here for an A/C evacuate and recharge because my A/C wasnt blowing cold.The bottles they sell at the store are not always going to fix your A/C problems and may make your A/C worse or even ruin your A/C system.I was charge $95 for an evacuate and recharge which is much cheaper than other places in the northern VA area. My A/C is super cold now. The Auto Service only took about 2 hours with no appointment.There are things you can do at home to save money and do a good job like an oil change, but leave the A/C evacuate and recharge for the professionals. For $95 it was worth it to fix the A/C the right way.

A week after an oil change, my car made strange noises when Im driving. I thought something terribly went wrong and I contacted this mechanic; he took the car and told me theres not enough oil in the car. I paid $5 to top up the low engine oil; the problem was resolved. Others may have taken advantage of my lack of knowledge and said something else to collect 100 bucks or so. I could have given $100 easily without question because I thought something was wrong terribly but it wasnt so and he was honest enough to tell me hes just going to take $5 from me. This is why I recommend this place as the right spot to come.

Excellent quality in a timely manner! I love Octane Auto Care.

10/10 for this place. Inhoe is amazing, kind, professional, and trustworthy. I am happy to say that my husband and I have been loyal customers for 4 years. If you want a good mechanic, go here.

Great place to take your car, have been going here for several years and never had a problem with the service, good prices

Great service, fair prices, great customer service, honest car repairs. Overall best experience with a car repair shop in a long time. Highly recommend.

This is the best auto shop I have come across in the DMV area, Honesty and experience is hard to find and this place is awesome!

Fast, honest, and thorough work. Unlike dealership vibes of overselling and under-providing, Octane Auto is authentic about their work. A family friend recommend them to me years ago and they have kept my cars going since.

Friendly staff and fast service. I went for my car VA safety inspection and they were able to work on my car very quickly.

Honest, reliable, and repair costs are good. Can be really busy and tight to drop off your car for service.

They do all the necessary work no extras. Also they can provide the needed parts for a good price. I would definitely recommend them for sure.

We take 3 cars there for service, and have done so for over a year. They consistently meet or exceed our expectations. They are honest, reasonably priced and highly competent. They are usually very busy, but if you are patient, they will come through for you.

Fairly priced auto services compared to dealership prices. They are usually busy so you do want to plan ahead

Great service, great prices, and they only quote you for the time that they need to do the job. Honest place that I will take my car to everytime!

I have never met a more honest, competent, and professional team that the one at Octane Auto.

Do Go to this garage, but, expect a first come first served experience because this garage is the best kept secret in Annandale VA. Busy for a good reason!!! Referrals!

Fair pricing and honest mechanics but be prepared to wait a long time for the work to be done

The best auto care service ever I have received. Inho and his papa, they are the great and honest people in auto service business.

Very professional, excellent price and amazing service.

Fair, honest and reliable. Mr. Kim is a solid guy and will take good care of your vehicle.

Best Mecanic in nova. Honest and fixes the issue the first time and very reasonable cost. What a gem

I do not believe you will find a more honest repair shop in Northern Virginia. They do a good job and stand behind their work while charging some of the most reasonable prices you will find.

Mount and balanced tires for me last minute! ♡ great people !

INHO of OCTANE AUTO CARE was Fast, Friendly Good Service, Straight to the point and done on time.

Fair price and quick. Very friendly ppl.

Fast, great service, great prices, no pushy upsales either. Will definitely go back.

This place is great; I found them because they were local, but Ill keep going there if I move out of the area.

The best price in town. A few place to trust. Check it out. Highly recomanded.

Is this guy for real? When I first started going here I wasnt sure what to think. This guy fixes everything right the first time. I dont know how he keeps track of the keys. I used to worry about it, but now I just tossed em on the pile and walk out. Fix whats wrong and call me. Inho for President!!!!

Very honest, thorough and stands behind work. After several misses with area mechanics, this one is a sure win!

Good work, reasonable prices, honest.

Cheap, efficient, reliable car experience!

I came here to get my throttle position sensor replaced and now my car accelerates better than before.
