Auto repair and tune-ups on Venice Blvd
Auto Repair Tune-Up is a full-service shop at 10881 Venice Blvd in Los Angeles. We handle the work that keeps a car dependable — tune-ups, oil changes, brakes, diagnostics, air conditioning and smog-check repairs — and we explain what we found before we touch anything.
Los Angeles is hard on cars in specific ways. Stop-and-go traffic wears brakes and transmissions faster than open-road miles. Summer heat is brutal on batteries, coolant and air conditioning. And California’s biennial smog check turns a small emissions fault into a registration problem. Most of what we see is one of those three things.
What to do when something feels wrong
You do not need to know what is broken to call us. Describe what changed — a noise, a smell, a warning light, a drop in fuel economy — and we will tell you whether it needs looking at now or whether it can wait until your next service.
- Check engine light on — we read the codes and find the actual cause, not just the code
- Rough idle, hesitation or misfire — usually ignition, fuel delivery or a sensor
- Grinding or squealing when braking — stop driving on it and call us
- Failed a smog check — bring us the report and we will work from it
- Air conditioning blowing warm — leak testing before recharging, every time
Getting here
We are open Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Saturday 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Closed Sunday. Saturday hours exist because most people cannot leave a car during the working week. Call (310) 202-0047 and we will tell you what the day looks like.
