The folks at Luckys are experienced and knowledgeable around the 7.3 diesel that I drive...and in the 6 years I have known them, they have always been fair and honest in their work. A great group of mechanics!

Hands down best shop around!Ever since day one of my ownership of my Ford Powerstroke these guys have been a huge help - even via the phone. We are a full time RV family (originally from CO) and use our F-450 as our tow rig. On a recent trip we landed in Montana with a crank-no-start situation. After $2k and a month and a half of dealing with shops up there where I was not a priority I personally hauled the truck back to Luckeys to get us back on the road again. We were up and running in about a week. They will not stop until they find out whats wrong with your rig. Either location Longmont or Loveland these guys are awesome.

After spending hundreds on towing, and not getting answers from another mechanic, we took our truck to Luckys and they found the issue immediately. They are honest, have fair pricing, quick turn around for the job and are clearly experts. We were so thankful to have answers after months of not knowing. Highly recommend!

Took my 2001 7.3 here for a diagnostic and Im glad I did. A previous mechanic quoted me at $8k dollars in repairs, but Luckys found it to be substantially cheaper. They took their time and they are extremely honest with fair prices. If you have a powerstroke, these are the boys. Best powerstroke mechanics in Colorado, hands down.

Driving across country from Georgia. Came into Colorado to see some friends in Longmont. Woke up next morning to my fuel bowl leaking on my 7.3l. Very simple fix but I did not have a place to properly work on it. Plus I hate diesel fuel on me. My friends recommend luckys in town. Called them up and spoke with Kyle on the phone. Was interested and intrigued in fixing my problem for me.. He told me he could have the parts here next day and I could come by and get it done anytime. I dropped my truck off and figured about 2hrs. Left nut brewery is just down the street👍. Apon further disassembly of my fuel bowl. Justin called me to inform The filter was very dirty and asked whether I wanted a new one or to keep the old one. Appreciated the call to ask me. The filter was recently new but I didnt doubt the judgement. New o ring kit and filter in my truck. Little more than I would have like to pay but you cant beat peace of mind. When Im in the area and around Colorado. I wont hesitate to call Luckys diesel shop with any issues may have. Greatly appreciate the work done and in the timely manner. Thanks Kyle and Justin!!

I was in a tough spot and luckys was honest and to the point. Honesty has been a real issue with shops to me so I appreciated their service. They know their stuff and was able to take care of my needs.

Best place Ive ever used for my Ford diesel van. Incredibly knowledgeable and have a great attention to detail. Cant recommend them enough. If you have a Ford diesel you should be using Luckys for all your maintenance and repairs.

This is the only shop I trust working on my truck. I work on vehicles as a hobby but when the time came to pull the heads, oil cooler, and install studs on my 6.0 I turned to these guys. Im not permitted to leave disassembled vehicles in my driveway due to HOA rules. Because of this I called up Luckys and talked to Cody about my truck and what I wanted to do. Cody was great setting things up over the phone and it didnt bother the guys that I had specific heads and studs that I wanted to use. Kyle was the awesome, highly knowledgeable mechanic that was tasked with the work.I wanted a mechanic that had a passion for doing good work and was proud of the final product. After meeting Kyle a few times before and during the job I realized he was the right person for the job. He found a few small issues after pulling the heads. Instead of just sending me a massive bill, he called to let me know what the issue was and we discussed ways to address it properly. While putting everything back together, Kyle found one of my rocker boxes was cracked. When I picked up the truck he let me know that he had a spare one lying around the shop so he replaced it - no charge to me. Prior to installing the o-ringed cylinder heads, Kyle checked them over and noted that one had an issue. He contacted the vendor and arranged to have a new head shipped to the shop. Kyle called me after the fact and let me know what the problem was - and that he was already working on a resolution. I could give several more scenarios where Kyle and Cody took care of me and, more importantly, my truck.Now my 2005 Harley Davidson Edition 6.0 runs better than ever. She doesnt leak coolant or oil, the headgaskets are sealed tight, and my oil & coolant temps are perfect. The guys also recommended a few aftermarket parts for me. I gave the parts a try and Im glad I did! I have no regrets using Luckys and is the only shop I recommend Powerstroke owners use.

Review №12

At $130 an hour & all the great reviews, I was really expecting to get a diagnosis of what was wrong with my truck. I instead got told they couldnt do any tests without me paying $3000 for new fuel injectors. That could be destroyed by running the truck & wouldnt be warrantied if they were destroyed. This place might be great if you have tens of thousands of dollars to throw away, but if you have a budget, I recommend going somewhere that will actually find, then fix your problem.They tell a great story, thats partly why I took my truck there. What it boils down to is theyd rather not do the hard tests that take time. Pressure test the motor thru the IPR to see if the block is cracked, which they told me it could be & would cost over $14,000 to replace the motor.A compression test to check for head problems. Im not a mechanic but I know that tests can be done on non running motors to find out why it doesnt run. Dont charge people $130/hr & tell them the problem is going to cost somewhere between$1,500 & $15,000. Do your job, find the problem.

Review №16

Reaching the end of my luck with my 6.0 Powerstroke and time for some service. Went to Luckys to give them an informal interview on their knowledge and philosophy of service. Very impressed. Took the truck in for a diagnostic analysis on the engine and got full details of what was going on with recommendations for the engine that didnt push for the works. They looked over the entire truck and identified some much needed work I had overlooked - very thorough inspection! Will report back after a semi-bulletproofing - leaving on a 5000 mile trip in a few weeks.

Awesome Powerstroke diesel shop! Had a lot going on with my 2006 F-350 and had it towed in. The guys had it diagnosed the next day, gave me a whole run-down on what needed to be done with cost estimates and gave me a chance to review everything before we moved forward with the repairs. When they had the truck tore down, they found a few other things and called me with my options before doing anything. Very good communication compared to other shops Ive worked with. The best part is my truck was done in three days and its like having a new truck again - its running great! All the parts came in super fast. Thanks Luckys - really appreciate the help last week.

This shop takes care of its customers and they helped by F350 run way better down the road. Great service and communication. If you have a Ford, this is the place to drive it. Thanks Luckys.

I took my truck in to Luckys after not being satisfied with the quality of work at a diesel shop near my house.I was thoroughly satisfied with my experience. They got my truck in and out. And did quality work.This is the only place I will take my powerstroke from now on.

Sean and John are great. I have a 2001 F-350 that just went over 300,000 miles. There have been times that my final bill has been lower than what they estimated it would be. I am not a mechanic, I am in construction and I make my living using my truck. They have done a great job keeping it on the road. I heard about them from a colleague and he has nothing but great things to say as well. Another friend of mine does some work on his own truck (he has quite a bit of experience working on cars and trucks.) and Sean and John are always very helpful giving him advice. I highly recommend Luckys Diesel Shop.

My experience is just like the other 5 star folks. I had an injector that was frying my FICM and they went above and beyond to troubleshoot and repair this extremely rare and random problem.They also installed an EGR Undelete, a new turbo and few other parts on my other truck and everything was top notch. Its also worth mentioning that they are super thorough in doing overall diagnostics and checking the soundness of the base machine so that you dont get your truck back only to have another issue pop up.

Fast turnaround! Reasonable price!! Excellent work!!! My 06 6.0 had gotten very sluggish and didnt have much power. Sean and his team worked their magic on it. Im very happy with the service and highly recommend them.

I really like Jon over at Luckys. These guys are fluent in 6.0, which can be hard to find these days. If it is a repair over my head, I will always skip the dealer and have it over at Luckys. Thanks guys!

So far so good. They did a diagnostic for loose steering and explained which parts were worn and how to proceed.

Our 2006 F350 broke down. We live in New Mexico and were on our way to Estes Park. We thought it was the injectors. Sean and John correctly diagnosed it as the main fuel tank delaminating (!) and gumming up the fuel pump and filters. They checked the smaller tank for us too. Even though they were busy, they had it diagnosed and fixed in three days. It ran great all the way home. I am especially appreciative that they didnt gouge us even though we were from out of town and at their mercy. If we lived there, I would definitely use them again. The other thing that was nice was to not get a lecture about the 6.0 engine and its failings. Some people cant afford brand new trucks and we like ours fine.

Great guys, great job. I took my truck in initially for a diagnostic knowing that there was a lot wrong with it. Once I scheduled for service, there was a slight hiccup with scheduling, but unlike other shops they took responsibility For it and didn’t make excuses.They are amazingly helpful and walk me through everything that needed to be done. To save a little bit of money there were some things I wanted to do myself, and they were great in helping me understand what needed to be done and what made the most sense for me to do.They are super fair with their pricing and their estimates are concise clear and easy to read.You can definitely trust your truck with Luckys !

I have an 05 f250, and I heard great things about luckys from many people. I had some issues with it starting and had it brought to luckys and they had it diagnosed and fixed really fast. John and Sean are super cool and good to work with. I will not bring my 6.0 to anywhere else period.

All the crew at Luckys hands down some of the most honest and best mechanics I’ve dealt with!! I have 2 diesels with a 6.0 that had been a thorn in my side for years with multiple other shops screwing me over! Not Luckys! They had it figured out quick and fixed it up. Runs great! If you have a diesel take it to Luckys hands down best shop in Colorado! Thanks again Luckys crew.

If you own a diesel truck, Luckys Diesel should be on the top of your list. Sean and his shop do great work, are thorough in their diagnostics and provide you with options and costs, so you can make the best decision for your circumstances. He has done a lot of smaller work on my truck and most recently installed the BulletProof EGR, Oil Pump and Oil Cooler and it runs great.I highly recommend Sean and his shop, Luckys Diesel Shop.

Review №46

Wow! What amazing service. I had my VW towed to this shop in the middle of the night thinking they handle all diesels but it turns out they didnt. My bad. BUT, instead of just turning me away, John took his time for FREE, to look things over just in case he could work on it. When he found out he couldnt do it, he called around all of Longmont looking for shops to take care of it. When he finally found one, he even arranged the tow! I know, unbelievable, right!? Its true. The level of customer service to me when I wasnt even a customer is off the charts! If you are looking for a company to take care of your Power Stroke, Look no further. Thank you John for your diligence and genuine concern for me and my situation.

Review №48

Luckys is by far the best mechanic experience I have ever had. I was traveling across country with my work truck and broke down in CO. I was given quotes by other mechanics in town that were clearly trying to take advantage of me and the fact that I was desperate because I was traveling. Finally I found Luckys and they took me right in. They were honest about the work that needed to be done along with fair rates for their services. Shaun took lots of his time on top of the labor to teach me about my truck and how to take care of it. I am so thankful for their knowledge and guidance. I cant say enough good things about Luckys. I wish there was a place like this close to where I live. They are truly power stroke specialists and their knowledge has exceeded any other mechanics that I have had work on my trucks including the dealership. I highly recommend their services!

They dont work on anything older like 1999 down, they make too much money. Or claim to be too busy. Whats more is they didnt even entertain a question or point me to a good shop. Highly dissatisfying.

Took my new (used) 2004 6.0l to Sean and asked him what it needed...he checked it out and said everything was in good shape and just said to keep up on routine maintenance. If he had wanted to screw me over he could have tried to sell me a lot of crap. Since then Ive taken my truck back a couple of times and the cost is often less than quoted. The guy who pissed about the missed diagnosis is a moron - I always want to know the worst case cost before someone rips my vehicle apart, then charge me for the actual repair was...which is what Sean has always done. I trust Sean and will continue to take my 6.0l powerstroke to Luckys!
