Our 2004 Jetta 2.0 had a catastrophic failure when the engine mounts broke and, in the process, cracked the transmission casing. The car had to be towed to Zbylut's and Luke found us a transmission with only 44,000 miles on it. He replaced the transmission and we also had him replace the timing belt and water pump at the same time. The car was misfiring and Luke picked up on that and repaired it as well. The car runs like the day we bought and is as quiet as when it rolled off the showroom floor. All of this took less than 1 week!
Luke's attention to detail and knowledge of cars is phenomenal. You know your mechanic looked over your car thoroughly when he let's you know the license plate light is out and the cabin air filter is dirty even though the problem that brought the car to him in the first place was 100% in the engine compartment.
Finally, the prices are far less than what a dealer would charge. No dealer will ever match Luke's attention to detail and passion for cars, so getting his service at a lower price is a bonus. Some people point out that Zbylut is likely to repair things that "they didn't bring the car in for." In truth, they repair what needs to be repaired to keep your car in top shape. I like the attention to detail and the fact that they catch things that need to be addressed. The only reason things like that don't happen at other mechanic shops is because other people just don't care.
I feel my car is in great hands with Zbylut Motor Works and Luke's attention to detail gives me confidence that I can keep this car forever if I choose to. This was our first trip to Zbylut as we are new to the area, but we will be going back for all of our maintenance and repair needs. Take your car to Zbylut if you care about its performance, maintenance and longevity. You won't be disappointed.
