In from out of town I woke up to a flat on New Years Day. Tow trucks were hours out so they came to my truck to help me. Incredible service that went above and beyond, and on a holiday. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Communication was really good. And appreciated. I wasn't able to get my car to the shop for service. They came, and towed my car to the shop to fix it! Would recommend to anyone. Thank you again

Stop guessing, start fixing

Symptom, finding, fix

No “parts cannon” at El Mecanico. Every job starts with what the car is doing, then what we actually find, then the fix. Here are real ones, from customers and from the work we do every week.

Symptom

Rattling and low on oil, far from home on a Saturday

Finding

Valentin met the car with the tow truck and listened to it in the parking lot. Nothing concerning.

Fix

Top off the oil, get an oil change, drive home. He wouldn't take cash for his time.

Symptom

A flat on New Year's Day, tow trucks hours out

They came to the truck instead of leaving it to wait on a tow.

Fix

Helped at the roadside, on a holiday.

Ben Carpenter, Google reviewTowing

A check engine light that keeps coming back

A worn front suspension part, found on the lift: spring, strut, control arm or tie rod.

Quotes, tows and payment

We don't price a repair before we've looked at the car. Bring it to 1644 Main St or call (920) 217-5911, we assess it, and you get a detailed quote once the assessment is complete, before any work starts.

Yes. Every repair is done in our shop on Main St in Green Bay. Engines, brakes, suspension, cooling, AC and transmission work all happen in our own bays.

Yes. Call (920) 217-5911 and we'll come to the car. Sometimes the fix is simple enough to sort out on the spot; if it needs the bay, we tow it straight to the shop for diagnosis and repair. We handle local and long-distance tows.

Slipping or hesitation when the gears change, fluid leaks, strange noises or vibration, or a loss of power. Any of those is worth an inspection before it gets worse.

It can be either. Pulling, drifting or nose-diving under braking often points to a worn suspension or steering part. We put the car on the lift and find the exact component before replacing anything.
