Best Subaru mechanics to keep your beloved Subaru running on down the road

I want to give a "re-up" good review for Superior Repair in Burien after I had my oil changed there this morning. We've been dealing with Superior since they did the gaskets and seals on a used Legacy we bought about 5 years ago. I am not necessarily brand loyal to Subaru but would make my next car one simply for the sake of having Superior be our mechanic. I've dealt with dealerships and other make-specific shops with other cars and the difference is clear. They're ready when they say , they're nice and helpful when you arrive and even go so far as to do things like test drive after an oil change to make sure everything's good to go. They always do a little check of the car for other issues when it's in and then clearly explain why they recommend any repairs they do. I've never felt as if they're trying to talk me into unnecessary work and they've actually talked me out of work that I thought I needed. They also are very reasonably priced and will use the most cost efficient parts that they can stand behind. If you live anywhere in the vicinity it's worth taking your Subaru to them.

When it comes to Subaru specialist mechanics, Superior Repair is the best of the best. Honest, competent, dependable, and fair. I first discovered Steve years ago when I was driving an old Subaru with more than 200K miles on it. The manual transmission didn't like shifting into 2nd. Steve knows these cars well enough that he actually was able upgrade it to a used transmission from a newer model year. Although I drive a Tesla today, I was Steve's customer for a decade and a half of Subaru driving and I can recommend his business without reservation. Don't let the location deter you: I took my car here even when I lived on the North End. If you work in Downtown Seattle, it's easy to get to work from here on the bus. Or, if you're headed out on a midweek business trip, you can drop off your car on the way to the airport and have it done when you're back. Seriously, Steve is a gentleman and a saint among mechanics. If you drive a Subaru, he's your guy.Services: Air & cabin filter replacement

Brought my Forester in for it's 105k service here on recommendation from a friend. They completed everything way quicker and less expensive than expected. I also really appreciated their no B.S. and honest feedback on what does and doesn't need to be done in the near future. Based on my first experience here I'll definitely be back in the future.Service: Oil change

Honest mechanics. They don’t try to get you to have work you don’t need done to make a buck. I took my car here after the dealer recommended some repairs and after they looked at my car, they said those things could wait except for something small I was already going to do myself. They also replaced a brake light during the inspection and didn’t charge anything for it. I’ll be back when it’s actually time to do the work I thought I needed now.

Above and beyond expectations! I brought in a 1991 Legacy which they went thru very carefully, correcting my issues, alerting me to safety issues, and giving me a heads up of what to expect in the next year or so. I couldn't ask for better service! Thank you so much, Steve & Rob!

If I could give this place negative stars I would. I called to make an appointment a week ago. The guy said over the phone they open at 830 so come in anytime after that (for an oil change, basic service) I showed up the following Monday for my so called appointment at 915am. Not even a hi , how are you or how can I help you. Just a "You're supposed to be here at 830 we blew past you". I look around and there's nobody there. I was so confused as to what he was trying to say but his expression and body language said it all. The man wasn't even wearing a mask while he was talking to me nor did he try to put a mask on as there were none in sight. I guess my money wasn't good enough for him because he didn't even offer to reschedule with me. I'd rather pay extra money to go anywhere else for car servicing than to be treated like ****

Best of the best! Really wish I had come the Superior Repair sooner.I had gotten a comprehensive inspection with Tom's Automotive. It was a popular and highly recommended shop on the West Seattle Connection group on FB. And I could see how folks would recommend it - the people were kind and I got a professional breakdown of repairs, etc. That being said, after the inspection I received a list of items that needed to be repaired that totaled up to $10k, and they tried upselling me on at least getting $2k worth of repairs at a bare minimum and said the others could wait. I ended up spending $600 on a repair that they said was necessary to get the car safely out of the lot, and then took it to Superior Repair a shop that specializes in Subarus to get a second opinion on the rest.Rob at Superior Repair was kind, professional, humble, and after a few hours of me dropping the car off, went over the list in detail on why each item was an issue, items in my car that had been incorrectly installed in the past, and told me honestly what repairs were needed and what repairs would only last me until the next thing broke. He came to the conclusion that it wasn't worth me putting more money into the car as certain repairs wouldn't outlast, the other more expensive ones and the costs to fix all the issues were more than the amount that the car was worth. So glad I didn't listen to Tom's Automotive to invest in repairs that would only go to waste in a couple months and wish I would've gone to Superior Repair to begin with. They really know Subarus inside and out, and are good-hearted honest guys that won't take your money for the sake of it and will give you a straight answer.If you have a Subaru, I highly recommend taking it to Superior Repair. They pride themselves on being Subaru experts and the conversations I had between them and the other repair shop were night and day and confirmed this. If I get another Subaru - I wouldn't trust it with another else.

First time I went here I had a problem where my engine was eating oil. Instead of offering to do the job themselves, they informed me that there was a known fault and that the dealership was obligated to fix it for free saving me thousands. These guys are really honest and will have my business for as long as I can offer it
