They fixed my Isuzu Rodeo not once, not twice, but three times! I appreciate this business for their fast service, reliable diagnostics, and for their honesty. They will lift the car, make a true mechanic's assessment, then recommend what your vehicle really needs immediately, as well as what it needs not necessarily immediately. This is a valuable kind of diagnostics and advice my friends. Take your car troubles here and you won't be let down.

They fixed my Isuzu Rodeo not once, but twice! My truck broke down, i usually fix it myself when I am knowledgeable enough and if I have the necessary tools. But this time I just didn't have the time really. I knew my alternator was bad, but it would take me at least 2 days, maybe more like 4 days to actually do the job by myself. So my resolve? I brought it to Mr Lorne. He fixed it the same day, and I was back to work and making money again. Thank you Advance Auto Repair & A/C!

They fixed my Isuzu Rodeo once. I was in the ditch early one morning. Truck shut off while my girlfriend was driving it. Wouldn't start back uo for her. Mr Lorne driving by in his tow truck saw me trying to get it going. He offered to pull it out the ditch just being a courteous kind of guy. I told him it actually isn't starting that's the real problem. So he towed it out the ditch and over to his shop to diagnose the problem. All of this was just a courtesy to a member of the community who broke down not far from his shop. Turned out to be the fuel pump. My luck couldn't have been any better that morning... So I always thought the place probably had a long waitline to look at cars that's why I never inquired here before, but no not at all. Mr Lorne proceeded to replace the fuel pump for me, and he did it all in that same day. Sheila who speaks mostly with the customers, is a wonderful lady as well. This business is honest, helpful, and valuable in our community. This is the place to go for your car troubles. I highly recommend them.

Needed A/C work on our 2015 Sienna, and knew it would be a costly repair. Called around for a few quotes and decided to go with Sheila and Lorne. Best decision I could’ve made. From the initial contact for a quote, to picking up the van, Sheila was extremely friendly and responsive to all of my calls. Our van was ready when promised, and the blast of cold air for the first time in several months was amazing 🥶. I will not hesitate to bring our vehicles here again.

This amazing, family owned, business has been a God send for me and my own small business. I have a food truck and it’s been very hard to find a shop that is both reliable and honest….this shop has both in spades and I don’t know what id do without them. Thankyou Loren and Shelia for your expertise, honesty and kindness. You just know when you have the right people on the job and I can confidently say Advanced Auto Repair WILL treat you like family. Mahalo!

I’ve been checking out auto shops in Gainesville, FL, and Advanced Auto Repair at 1224 E University Avenue stands out with its calm, reliable approach. It’s a solid place that gets the job done right.
They cover all the bases—tune-ups, brakes, oil changes, A/C work, whatever your car needs, foreign or domestic. I drop by when something’s off, and the team handles it with a steady, no-nonsense touch. Being near UF is a bonus for convenience.
Their $19.95 oil change intro deal hooked me—quick, budget-friendly, and fits my packed schedule (open Monday through Saturday). They give straight-up estimates and keep things moving without any hassle.
Advanced Auto Repair Gainesville is my spot for car fixes. It’s got a friendly, down-to-earth vibe—everyone’s there to help and get you back on the road. Easily the best place in town to keep your car running smooth.

What a wonderful experience! Mr. Green not only diagnosed the issue quickly, but was always smiling and happy to answer any questions. His wife was gracious and sweet as can be. What a great couple these genuinely nice folks are. Came across a couple of angels masquerading around as humans. Can not recommend enough, great work, great prices and what a pleasure to be in the company of such amazing people.
