Tell us what's going on
Request a time online or call (952) 432-2112. Tell us what you are noticing and we will call to confirm the right visit.
We diagnose, you decide
We run the tests, then walk you through what we found. You'll know what needs fixing now and what can wait. No pressure, just options.
Done efficiently. No surprises.
Most jobs wrap up when we said they would. If a repair turns into a bigger job once we are in there, we stop and call you with what we found and what it costs before doing more. Then we road-test it and hand you the keys.
What we fix
Brakes squealing? Check engine light on? A/C blowing warm? We handle all of it. Every make and model.
Diagnostics
Check engine light? Weird noise? We trace it to the source instead of guessing. Battery and charging issues too.
Brakes & repair
Brakes, transmission, A/C and heating, exhaust, suspension and alignment. If it's broken, we fix it.
Same family. Same shop. Since 1997.
In Apple Valley since 1997 and on 147th Street since 2001. The name changed to Apple Valley Car Clinic in 2012, but the family and the work ethic didn't. Justin, who grew up in the shop, owns it today.

★★★★★
"The technician took his time and found the main leak that was causing the problem, saved me $2800. Now to be honest, yes, there are other leaks on the truck, but that is to be expected with a 25+ year old diesel truck with 135,000 miles on it."
★★★★★
"I only take my cars to Apple Valley Car Clinic. Even for oil changes. They are on top of everything, give fantastic advice, and always take care of their customers. You will be happy with their service!"
