I found this shop after I lost a CV Joint on a 84 VW Rabbit. I also found out that he was the manager of the Autohaus in Herndon, but was asked to leave this position, for a Son-In-Law replacement. He started his own shop and has had nothing but success. Dan takes the time to explain everything, and even tells you what you can get by with if you are having cash flow difficulties. He has a strong background with foreign cars, but have had no difficulties with any vehicle that comes to his door. He will make suggestions and always wait for you to make a decision of your with no pressures what-so-ever.... Please call him, tell him Randy Smith sent you.

About 3 years ago, this shop was rated very highly by
consumer Checkbook Magazine. Find a good, reliable
technician that you can trust is rare. To find one within a
10 minute drive from my home was a real surprise.
Our daughters car, a Nissan Sentra, has had numerous
"growing old" problems and Dan and his team has always been
extremely helpful getting her car back on the road.
I cannot recommend his shop highly enough. His easy going
manner, honesty and his genuine desire to have a happy
customer is commendable.
If there were one thing I'd change with his shop, it would
be his hours. It would really be nice if he were open on
Saturdays, but I guess business is good and he doesn't need to!

They were the reason my Honda went to 275,000 miles. Dan has a very easy
going manner -- almost family. I know the mechanics, and they are good.
Now I take my wife's car there as well as my new car.

I have used your website to find a competent and honest
mechanic for my daughter in Denver and now she has moved to
Sterling, Va. So, I found Absolut Autoworks on your site.
Yesterday, my daughter was experiencing a squealing brake
problem and took her vehicle to Meineke to have it looked at
(advertised free brake check). I warned her about the
possibility that they would find a "dangerous problem" to
fix, and they did not disappoint. They found she needed ball
joints for $400 and said it would be "dangerous" to be
driving the car. Since the car had been inspected in NYS
three months prior, I suspected that the ball joints were OK
and I recommended that she seek a second opinion. She
stopped at Absolut Autoworks on her way home from Meineke,
and a mechanic there checked her ball joints on the spot,
for free and told her that they were fine. She took their
business card and told them that they would, from now on, be
her mechanic of choice. As the father of a daughter who
lives 300 miles away, I am very grateful for honest
mechanics like Absolut.

Washington Checkbook highly recommended Absolut Autoworks
in 2003 when I first moved to Sterling, VA. It's 2010, and
they're still my repair shop and my #1 recommendation to
others who are in need of one.
