Studio City Auto Repair

I met up with the guy I was trying to purchase my first car from. I showed up at Funk Brothers and they gave me an honest assessment of the car and what was wrong with it. The mechanic who helped me was the son of the man who owned the place and he was awesome. He ran checks on the car to make sure everything was in top shape and pointed out several areas where the car might need work. I highly recommend going to Funk Bros for any auto help. Very helpful/nice staff and they seem to be one of the only honest mechanics in LA.

I literally gave these guys multiple opportunities to charge me extra and each time they did the right thing and just did the work that was needed. First my engine light has been going on and off for a few months...which a few other places told me was the O2 Sensor that needing replacing. Well I'm finally ready to get it done and I go to these guys to do it and they said no need yet. Not worth spending the money until the light is on all the time and their diagnostic test says there is absolutely something wrong with the sensor. Well that was, uh, nice. Then I said go ahead and look under the hood and tell me what work needs to be done cause I'm over 80,000 miles and on the road a lot. "Nothing needs to be done." Sorry, you're a mechanic telling me not ONE THING needs to be done? Ooooookay. So then how much are you charging me for an oil change, fluid fill up and tire rotation? "$26 sir." Funk Brothers it is from now on...

Searching back on my long and storied past that includes many, many dealerships, auto repair stores, brake shops...you name it, I can't recall a single time I was more pleased with price or service. I'll be back here for sure.

I give Funk Brothers and specifically Jovig a BIG five stars. I had to repair the bumper of my ex-boyfriend's truck and not only did Jovig do a superb job with the repairs, he was incredibly kind, understanding and sensitive about the situation. Funk Brothers went above and beyond all expectations and made what could have been a stressful and financially tough situation very smooth, fair and pleasant experience.

These guys came highly recommended and now I know why. I've been taking my car to them for almost a year. Reasonable prices, honest assesments and great service. They even checked my "check engine" light for free and reset it (turns out gas cap was loose).

I've only been here for oil and filter changes, but the guys have always been more than helpful and never pushy on trying to sell me on stuff I don't need for my car! As a young woman I always feel like car shops are trying to take advantage of me because I don't know what I'm talking about, but unbeknownst to them my grandfather owned an auto repair shop my whole life and I know more about cars then most women! The price, friendliness and honesty keeps me coming back to Funk Brothers! I'd recommend them to any of my friends!

I have been going to Funk Brothers for 7 years now. They have always gone out of their way to save me money. I owned a Porsche that was extremely expensive to maintain and Funk Brothers always manged to repair any problems at a price that always made me smile. Not only that, but they truly show customer loyalty and would always go out of their way to see me as soon as possible and have me back in my car in no time at all. My girl friend was worried that her breaks were bad on her Chrysler and we took it in to have the breaks done. We left the car with Hovig at F.B. and 30 minutes later i received a phone call that there was nothing wrong with the breaks and they still had quite a bit of life in them. Unfortunately I am moving out of state soon and one of the things I am worried about is being able to find a new mechanic that is as honest and fantastic as Funk Brothers has been.

Trusted these guys for 12 years with multiple vehicles; vintage, Euro and Asian. They know the WRX inside and out. Always upfront and reliable. Have referred at least a dozen folks who have been completely satisfied. If you don't want to pay for labor people then do it yourself!

I will never go anywhere else. They've been my mechanics for over a decade since I first move to LA. I could give you anecdote after anecdote about how they took great care of me, but I won't. What I will tell you is that they have tried, every time I've been in, to save me money. I go in, they diagnose the problem. Then we talk about all the options for fixing it. "We can get the dealer part, or I can get an aftermarket for less... or let me see if we can get a part from a junk yard... ok, so here are the options, the junkyard part is X, the dealer part is Y, there are two aftermarket parts that cost Z and A... If it were my money, I'd go with the aftermarket Z because they give a longer warranty than the aftermarket A, and it's basically the same as the dealer part... comes from the same factory. The junkyard part is too risky with this repair..." And it's the phrase "If it were my money," that makes all the difference. They don't want to repair your car in a cheapo way, nor do they want you to always go with the most expensive option. They repair your car like they would repair their own. What more needs to be said?

Funk Bros. is a great place. I took my car there for an oil change and they took care of it right away. I went to the 99 cent store across the street and when I came back my car was waiting for me all ready to go. The prices are great too.
