“Griff and Max are amazing mechanics. Honest and hard working. Prices are fair and competitive. They let me know if it's a job I can do, as well. That's an honesty you don't find often anymore. I would recommend them any day of the week. Plus they come to YOU.”

“He showed up quickly, checked out my car, and figured out the problem right away. It turned out to be a throttle body issue, and he explained everything clearly and shared a detailed report with fair, reasonable pricing.”

“Courteous, professional, timely, conscientious, and highly skilled. He did work on both a Ford F150 raptor and a Mercedes E450 and both cars were tuned up extraordinarily well!”

“I have an older model European sports car that every mechanic told me couldn't be fixed. Griff from ACME researched the problem with incredible patience and FIXED IT!!”

“If there was an award for Best Mechanic in Austin, Griff would win every year! I cannot say enough about Griff. He is an absolute lifesaver and legend of a guy.”

“My check engine light was on, my car was in limp mode, and it was overheating. He took his time to figure out what was actually wrong instead of just guessing or trying to sell me extra work. He explained why certain parts needed to be replaced and made sure I understood everything. After he fixed it, my car was running great, the overheating was gone, and all the warning lights were off. His prices are very reasonable too. It's hard to find someone who's honest, takes their time, and actually cares about getting the job done right. I definitely recommend!”

“Griff is awesome, easy to work with an excellent at what he does. Knows and explains the likely part to repair (trouble shooting steps to understand costs in advance). As someone who works from home, having him able to just come to the house and get the work done is amazing!”

“Griff was kind enough to come to my apartment and fix my car after 5 pm. He took roughly an hour to get the work done and did it very professionally and methodically. His skills are unmatched! I'd highly recommend his services.”

“Engine not running at idle. At my request replaced plugs and fuel filter with no improvement. Max started diagnostic search and found it was the fuel pressure valve and not the pump as I had suspected saving me a considerable amount of money. The whole team at Acme was professional, courteous and on time.”

“The team does quality work. They came out to my house and were very professional. I had three other mechanics look at my truck and no one could figure it out except these guys!”

“Cannot recommend them enough! Griff was able to work on my car while I was at work and completed the job in less than an hour. Took the time to explain exactly what was done and took extra precautions to make sure the problem stayed fixed! Also super wallet friendly! Big fan of this guy”

“Griff went above and beyond to take care of an issue I had been having stemming from poor service at a brick and mortar facility. He sourced OEM parts, did things the right way and ended up saving me money in the long run. He'll be my first call for any future auto issues as he's earned my trust. Highly recommend!”

“Had to get my Gaskets redone on my Mitsubishi Montero and Acme Autoworks helped me out with this problem. He was super reliable, honest, very efficient, and meticulous. Throughout the whole process he explained to me what he was doing and why. And the fact that he was able to come to our home to fix the car was a big plus.”

“Griff has fixed my starter, wheel bearings, and has even helped me get into my car when I locked myself out (which I really appreciated 😅). They're quick, creative with solutions, fair with pricing, and genuinely personable. On top of that, they'll drive right to you and make stressful car problems feel way less stressful.”

“What a gift to find a mechanic that is dependable and trustworthy. He did an excellent job on my repair and also let me know what to keep an eye on down the road as I have an older car. He was very easy to communicate with and enjoyable to work with. From now on I will call Griffin when I need anything done on my car!”

“Took the time to come and check out what my issues were with my lifted 4Runner. We got under the car and he showed me what he believed the issue was - cracked bushing on my LCA's. Week later he was over fixing it all. Now it rides great and quiet!! No other mechanic could find these issues, and he instantly knew and showed me. Super convenient having it done at your house. No leaving your ride at a shop for days and dealing with Ubers. 10/10 would recommend.”

“I can't say enough about the great service that Max did on my car. He replaced my alternator in just a couple hours, and it's great that he came right to my apartment, as my car wasn't running.”

“Griff and Max were fantastic. They helped with my daughter's car and searched until the part was found. Great communication and prices are very reasonable. Totally trustworthy and highly recommend if you need a mechanic.”

“The AC on my Acura stopped working and I had held off fixing it because it was so expensive. Griff gave me a fair price and kept me filled in during the whole process. I was part of all of the decision making when it came to parts being used, giving me both a high and low price point option for those parts. Every conversation felt like I was just chatting to a friend about cars and he made everything easy to understand. If you want fair, friendly and professional service, Griff is your guy.”

“He went above and beyond fixing my radiator, and finding me the best possible price and was so thorough while also being efficient. I knew from the second i talked to him he was an honest and reliable man. I felt so safe and so taken care of the entire time and he was such a pleasant energy throughout the whole process.”

“I had a broken CV axle that I desperately needed fixed before I headed out of town for a trip. Griff at Acme Autoworks went above and beyond the definition of customer service to help me out. Because I have modifications on my truck, he had to put several days of time and effort scouring around town to find specialized parts and tools to get the job done. Any other mechanic would probably have canceled and moved on to something else, but Griff stuck to his word and made sure I was taken care of. Not to mention his pricing and turnaround time are excellent.”

“I thought my 2005 used Matrix was done for at this point when it kept stalling and the breaks became unreliable and let's face it - it's 20 years old 💀. I took it to Acme thinking I'd be saying goodbye to my little car, but Griff was a miracle worker! Not only did he fix the problems, but he was so friendly and honest and the prices were so reasonable that I knew I wasn't getting ripped off.”

“Griff is one of the best and most honest person to work on my car EVER. He is so helpful at explaining what is wrong with your car and what ACTUALLY needs to be done. He never tries to run up any cost. Would recommend him to anyone!!”

“My girlfriend had a brake problem on her car while I was out of town. I spoke to Griff and he took it from there. He came out, evaluated the problem, found and priced the parts, got the parts and fixed the problem. And he kept me informed at every step. I can't recommend Griff highly enough.”

“My alternator needed to be replaced, and I'm really glad I met them. They were professional, easy to talk to, and clearly knew what they were doing. The job was done quickly and everything's been running great since. You can tell they take pride in their work. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy mechanic!”

“Finding a reliable and affordable local mechanic can be a challenge. Griff, at Acme Autoworks, was referred by a friend and has already worked on 2 of my family vehicles. His focus on diagnosing the problem, rather than just replacing parts, has saved significant time and money. If that wasn't enough, he does the work at my location.”
