Default Looking for cheap/fair good mechanic in Oakland

Looking for a cheap/fair priced mechanic who knows what theyre doing in Oakland. Just want to have a mechanic who I can go to when I need work on some of the cars in my household. Ie. Timing belts, valve adjustments, brake flushes, diagnostic etc.

I've been to Oriental Auto on 5th Ave before a few times, they're alright, but just seeing if anyone has a mechanic in the town that they use or recommend.

I went to JSR Performance to mount some tires before, young guys, real nice, but haven't looked into their mechanic work yet as I think they're mostly a wheel/tire shop.


I really like the reviews and prices of The Shop in San Bruno, but that's just too far for me.
