Independent Specialists of Reno

Took my 2010 Honda Accord V6 here to fix an oil leak, as I saw on Reddit that this was the place to go. The shop owner is one of the most professional people I've ever met, full stop. Steve was level-headed, respectful, and a great listener. After a day at the shop, Steve informed me that my coolant needed to be replaced, and my timing belt was long overdue for service. Once I gave the go-ahead, the team went right to work for a couple of days, keeping me informed of when they needed more time. In the end, the repair was thorough (including an engine steam clean), the leak was completely fixed, belt replaced and coolant flushed, all for a very fair price. This spot will definitely be my go-to repair place for all my Japanese cars.

Independent specialist is trustworthy and experienced and provide honest and reliable service. They take the time to explain what’s needed and never push unnecessary work. The pricing is fair. I would highly recommend them to any of my friends overall, they will save you money by not going to a tire center for car maintenance

Independent Specialists of Reno – Absolute HEMI Saviors I brought my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT to Independent Specialists of Reno with 99k miles on it and a very real fear that the motor was done for. The car had a misfire on cylinder 3, oil in the coolant, failed motor mounts, and all the warning signs of the notorious 6.4L HEMI lifter failure that so many SRT owners dread. To the point where I just wanted to sell it. I was honest with them. I run this car as it's meant to be driven. "Spirited", but it has always been meticulously maintained. I asked them one thing: save it if it’s possible. They didn’t hesitate. They told me it could be done, and then they delivered. They pulled the motor, tore it down properly, and did it right. The camshaft was toast, so it was replaced. New lift

I was recommended to come to Independent Specialists. I brought in an older vehicle I had just purchased to have it looked over. They were very communicative and thorough. When it came time for me to pick up the vehicle, Steve was nice enough to come out and help me code my radio with only two minutes left till closing. Great place!

The customer service of this shop is phenomenal! They know what they are talking about, yet will still take what you say you have experienced very seriously! Amazing shop! I will be using this shop again!!!
