Eddie is the best of the best. A down to earth, real person who very much cares about his customers and does the best work. Three generations of my family go there and that will continue into the future. I recommend Eddies automotive to everyone.
The guys at Eddies are awesome, honest and fast. There wasnt any b.s. like Ive had with other mechanics. They did what I wanted done and told me about issues I may have in the future. I highly recommend them.
Best place to get your Subaru worked on.Eddie and his crew are Great!!!
Best mechanic I have ever been to
Great shop and friendly service. Family business. Good work at a good price worth a little wait.
Eddie and his crew are knowledgeable and honest, and work hard to get you the best (and most appropriate) deal possible. Id recommend them to everyone. Been going there for 12+ years.
I had a tricky mechanical issue with my Subaru and a friend recommended Eddie. He diagnosed, found a great deal on a part, kept me updated along the way, and delivered a repair for well under the expected price. The service was outstanding! I will definitely be back if needed.
The best experience I have had with a mechanic. Very knowledgeable and professional. They were able to get me in very quickly, and were honest and straightforward about the issues with my car. 10/10 will return for any Subaru related needs.
TL;DR professional, personable, and good pricing. If I ever have issues, Im bringing my car back to Eddie.I had no experience with shops in the area, I knew I didnt want to take my car to a dealership though.Google reviews told me this shop was among the best so I went with it.My 2012 WRX hatch was having fueling issues. I called the shop to let them know Id be dropping the car off after hours and left a note describing the issue, what I had done to troubleshoot, and what aftermarket parts I installed.When I called the following day, it was apparent that hed read the note, as we discussed the issue.Instead of trying to sell me a new fuel pump, he was willing to install a different aftermarket pump that I had on hand.While that did fix the issue, he also let me know what the probable culprit was (busted o ring) and that the pump was probably still good, saving me the $130 for a new pump.Everyone at the shop was personable and professional, Eddie went above and beyond whats become the new standard for mechanics, and they didnt try to nickle and dime me.The next time my car needs more expertise than I possess, Im bringing it back here
Fair prices and friendly staff. I go here for oil changes and maintenance. I cant comment on their repair services, but I would trust them.
Eddie and his team are wonderful- theyre honest, and you can always count on them. There has been several times they helped me out, AND they went the extra mile. They have proven to be nothing but great over, and over!!
Best shop in town. Completely honest.
I brought my car to Eddies Subaru Service & Repair after an unfortunate experience with Hanson Motors. I suspected that my engine might be overheating as a result of work that was done by Hanson for a recall. I brought my car to Eddies for a second opinion after Hanson was not able to diagnose the problem and recommended an expensive engine tear down. Boy, am I glad I brought my car to Eddies! Eddies Subaru found a coolant plug in the lower radiator hose of my car which had caused the overheating. They took pictures of the plug in the hose and wrote clear notes in their invoice describing their work; they even gave me back the plug to return to the Hanson tech who left it there.While my car was at Eddies, I called twice for an update and did not hear back; however, when I came in, Eddie was more than happy to discuss the diagnosis hed done so far. I think waiting for a call back is a small tradeoff for being able to talk directly to the person doing the work on the car. Communication was prompt once they were able to determine the issue. All in all, I have been very impressed with the transparency, honesty, and reasonable rates at Eddies Subaru and look forward to taking my car there again in the future.
Excellent service, excellent prices and a quick return on my car. Ive never regretted going to Eddies for any service options
Eddie and his techs are great folks. I have had them do everything from engine swaps to oil changes. Eddie is knowledgeable and straightforward. Great technician that will take care of your maintenance requirements for a lot less than the dealership. Two thumbs up!
Ed Blood has been called a Subaru Wizard. Id say he IS the Subaru Wizard. Thats because he loves Subaru, drives them and races them. If your Subaru needs some love Eddies Automotive Service and Repair is the place. Took my 2001 Forester somewhere else because I had a certificate for an oil change and inspection. They told me about a couple things I knew were needing attention and quoted me a price. Out of curiosity, I called another place. Meh. Then I called Eddies. I used to speak car fairly fluently but the newer ones baffle me, still I gave them as many details as possible and got a quote about half the price of the others. Eddies also found something major the others missed. Even after fixing that, Im still in for less than the other guys! Paying more does not insure quality or honesty, especially when you are a woman. I swear, when a woman walks in the shop, the price goes up, but not at Eddies. The shop is fully and professionally equipped, tidy, and organized. Even the bathroom is clean!!!!! Thats a rare thing in most auto shops. Subaru Wizards they are, they work their magic on most Japanese cars and occasionally on American. If they dont, or cant fit you in, they will refer you to someone they trust and respect. Good, honest mechanics are hard come by. Been with Eddies Automotive for six or seven years. Will never think about cheating on Ed and his crew again. Nope. Not never.
They are the best here! Super knowledgeable, helpful and very fast to repair.
Had an excellent experience having my gen 1 outback repaired here. Very knowledgeable and they take the time to explain what needs to be done and why. Service was done expediently and to a high standard of quality.
Great customer service. Good mechanics who know what theyre doing, even if you dont have a Subaru. I had my Corolla serviced there several times in the last 10 years & always happy with the results.
Awesome people, reasonable prices, solid work.
Its hard to find a good trustworthy mechanic. Eddie is as good as they get. Wont do unnecessary work. Even though I moved away. I still try to use Eddie when Im home visiting
If you need work on a Subaru, then Eddie is your best option. This is not an opinion, it’s a fact.I have an outback that started making a small knocking sound deep in the engine. We took it to the local Subaru dealer thinking that they’d have the best mechanic for a “Subaru problem”. After about $800 of B.S. guessing and replacing pieces, and fluids, etc., they still had no idea what was causing the knocking sounds.I took the car to Eddie. After simply describing the problem (not even telling him what work had previously been done), Eddie correctly guessed what was wrong. This several months ago so I don’t exactly remember what I paid, but I don’t think he charged more than 1 hour of labor and materials ($200 – $230 or so dollars), and the problem was fixed.The only problem with Eddie is that I think he’s starting to build up a little following. His weekly schedule seems to fill up fast. But he’s worth waiting a day or two.
Loved going to Eddies but the last two were poor. Dropped the car off after problem. He forgot it after a week and than said he had no idea. Work is good but communication is very poor.
Been my family machanic for years. Reccomend for sure.
Eddie is very professional and does great work! He is honest and if he doesnt think he can do it he tells you. I trust his judgement and his work. I would recommend him to anyone with a Subaru.
Very friendly, good service.
A good old-fashioned mechanic that does great work at a fair price. The best Subaru mechanic Ive dealt with.
They did a great job of trouble shooting all the problems I had with my 01 Forester. They are truly experts at these cars. I am positive I would have paid double what I paid them elsewhere.
Best Subaru shop in Olympia. Great place to take your Subaru they go the extra mile in there work. You will never go to anyone else.
They did great work on my daughters suby
Only place to bring a Subaru in this county. If you love your Subaru and want to keep it going bring it here
Excellent, knowledgeable mechanics who dont give you the run-around. The quality of work is good and the prices are fair.
Best subaru shop in olympia. Did my valve gaskets and fixed and oil leak for very reasonable prices. Very knowledgeable staff and reasonable prices.
Eddie is a knowledgeable and honest mechanic!I am a DYI mechanic and subaru enthusiast, however working and traveling a lot I cannot spend the time to work on my car anymore.I set out to find and competent mechanic to work on my baby (price not a factor), I had a failing wheel bearing and axle(CV joint). The axle can be replaced by disconnecting the ball joint. This way of doing the repair cuts the hours down significantly and does not require an alignment, and its simply the best way to repair it.After many many calls to local mechanics Eddie is the only one I called that suggested the correct solution, and suggested the correct parts (reman over aftermarket) he did nothing to squeeze out another cent in fact did the opposite and did everything to cut costs below the original quote. I wanted to pay him more, but would not accept over payment.
I have a 2003 Subaru Outback that my husband and I knew the left control arm was failing in. We anticipated having to replace both arms while it was in the shop and Eddie quoted a very reasonable price for the work.Once we arrived Eddie himself drove our vehicle and after raising it determined that the wheel baring on the left side and the left control arm were after market parts and had both gone bad.Ultimately we loved our experience at Eddies. After receiving the part it took the mechanic a mere 2hours to finish our repairs. Eddie talked us through what he himself had seen that needed repairing and did not perform any unnecessary labor or try and talk us into paying for something we didnt feel needed doing. He explained that he uses as many OEM parts as he can which made me feel like I was getting the most out of my vehicle repair. On top if that when the work was finished, Eddie test drove the vehicle and personnally signed off on his mechanics good work.My husband and I both decided that Eddies shop is the only place we want working on our Subaru. A word to the repair hunters out there he primary works on Subarus and I am not sure his shop works on any other make.
This is the kind of shop you call and you get Eddie himself half the time you calI. will only come here with my Subaru, or other cars even. Eddie is an incredibly genuine and nice guy. His prices are cheaper than other shops Ive priced and his appointments are pretty relaxed so if you are a little late they dont sweat it. Very straightforward with prices and what you ACTUALLY need! Dont look anywhere else.
I brought my 2006 sti in and I couldnt be happier. Quick, fair, and incredibly kind.
Eddie and crew are very knowledgeable and honest.
Awesome
Eddie and his crew are awesome! Quality work and I always get a fair deal.
Fantastic, honest and has never done us wrong. Been going to him for years and wouldn’t go any where else.
We have been taking our Subaru to Eddie for about 6 years. We have always received honest quotes and exceptional service!
Eddie is awesome! Fantastic work.
Love this shop!
Eddie the Subaru wizzard
