I am the type who does as much of the work to my own vehicles as possible, however, for the few things I do require a shop for, I will continue returning to M E in Kyle. I have come to this location two times now. Each time they provided exactly what I asked and they did it in a very timely fashion too. Techs, Receptionist and Owner are all very nice and the communication is great. Highly recommended and will be back myself. Thank you! -Jackson

Another 5 stars for Jonathan and his crew at M.E. Automotive (formerly known as Hilltop automotive) Yesterday, I'm at work when my wife sends me a pic of what appears to be our suv suffering from a blown radiator. Panic mode kicks in because I'm thinking my wife and kids are stranded. Luckily they were at home. I call Jonathan and without hesitation, he calls a tow truck to head to my home and pick up my wife's suv. Jonathan and his crew inspect the suv and quickly provide me the details of what is wrong. Due to issues out of his control, he has to overnight the part that failed due to old age. (SUV is 10 years old) Picked up my wife's SUV today and all was fixed. Price was extremely fair and Jonathan had wiped the tow and diagnostic fee from the final price tag. I can not thank Jonathan and his crew enough. They do an amazing job and continuously impress me. Keep up the darn good job guys!!! Comment from Jonathan P. of M.E. Automotive Repair Business Manager 3/22/2017Thank you Domingo you know how we do it. Read more These guys don't disappoint. Went here again today. Once again, was greeted by Jonathan. 4 months since I had been here, and he knew me by name. Wow!! Needed brakes on my wife's Explorer this time. His crew quickly inspected her car and was given a fair quote for rear pads and rotors. When it was time to pay, I was greeted by Oscar. Another great guy. Then I was presented the final price tag. $80 cheaper then I had been quoted. AWESOME!!!! Will definitely keep going to these guys!!!! Read more Everyone knows that finding a good mechanic is a very hard thing to do. I have lived in Kyle since 2006 and till now, have utilized 2 different mechanics. When all else fails, go to Yelp for advise. That is what I did to find my 3rd mechanic, and hopefully my last. Here is my story: I own a 2005 Honda Civic. I bought it used in 2008 and it has done me well. I now have 128k on the odometer. Honda is known for making cars that take a licking and keep on ticking. Back in 11.14, I took my Honda to my previous mechanic for a brake job. Told him that something sounded loose on the front right portion of the engine. Mechanic said he would take a look at it when they were done with the brakes. Later that day, mechanic calls me and says that my motor requires an engine rebuild at about a cost of 3k. Mechanic says that a bearing within the piston was loose and was causing the rattle. I asked the mechanic how he came to his conclusion without opening the engine. He stated that he removed coils 1 & 2 and could hear the rattle. I'm not a mechanic so I trusted in him and took his word. Figuring that my Honda had bought the farm, I decided to park it and get me another car. Was not happy about getting into debt all over again, but figured I had no other choice. Due to current Cancer treatments on my son, I was never able to take my Honda to be sold. Fast forward to 01.27.15. I was home for a week from Houston due to my boy being between treatments. Looked on Yelp and found Hill Top automotive. Decided to take my Honda for a second opinion. Was greeted by Jonathan and explained to him what was going on. I left my car there for the day and waited for a phone call. At the end of business day, Jonathan called me and said that they had taken a brief look at my car, but that from what they could quickly gather, it sounded like the rattle was coming from the timing belt / water pump area, but would need more time to make sure. The next day, Jonathan calls me again and confirms that the tensioners on the timing belt had come loose, thus causing the rattle. Jonathan advises that the timing belt and the water pump need to be replaced at a cost of 599.19. I ask Jonathan if he is certain about this due to the previous diagnosis given to me by my previous mechanic. Jonathan laughed and said that my Honda did not require an engine rebuild, and that he was very certain that the issue was in fact what he was describing to me. Jonathan and his crew fixed my car and it is running smooth. I can not thank Hill top automotive enough for having found the true problem of my car. They have definately earned themselves a new customer. As for my previous mechanic, F-off for having made me get into debt with a new car payment and for being totally wrong on your diagnosis.

Very professional and always great service. They provide you feedback as to the progress of work being done if it is taking longer than normal.

Great communication, speedy service, polite and friendly. Could not have asked for more!

Great local mechanic. Trustworthy and well priced repairs.

First, their customer service is amazing. I dropped my car off around 4. They appeared to be pretty busy. They close at six, yet I still received a phone call after they had closed to inform me what needed to be done to my car. They finished the work in one day. They even offer a 1 year or 15,000 mile warranty on the parts they replace. I highly recommend this place. As long as I live in this area, I will never take my car to another location!

Since I've moved from NY to Texas recently, I didn't know of a good mechanic here in Kyle. I took a chance and went to M.E. Auto for an oil change and inspection. I won't go anywhere else! Jonathan is a real sweetheart, his smile always makes my day. I would trust them with my car for any service I might need.

What can I say that hasn't already been said about this shop! They're awesome!! In Feb they repaired my rear axel seals on my Titan on budget and on time. I just picked up my truck from them again and they replaced my exhaust manifold no easy task on a 04 Nissan Titan, but yet again on time and on budget. I would recommend this shop to anybody who values honesty and customer service they really go above and beyond here!

As always, fantastic customer service and pricing. Been here about a dozen times when I have something on the cars that I either don't want to do myself, or don't have time to. Most recently my car I use for a 100 mile round trip daily to work AC started blowing not so cold. Figured it had been two years since the last evac and charge, better bring it in. Called ahead and they said to swing by and they would jump on it. Pulled in and away they went. Pulled the 134 out and it was an oz low. Charged it, paid, and I'm rolling in ice cold AC. Said they couldn't find any leaks and I confirmed that with a UV light and a sniffer. Not sure where the slow leak is at. But at these prices I can afford every two years to drop in and get it fixed. Thanks ME Auto! Comment from Jonathan P. of M.E. Automotive Repair Business Manager 3/22/2017Thank you Chris for your feedback. Read more
