About the Business

LA's humble origin was my family's 2 car garage in Coeur d'Alene, North Idaho, shortly after my completion of NIC's Automotive Technology 2 year program. Before that, I credit my dad for planting the seeds of it in my head when I was a kid. He would jack up our old Subaru, pull out the wrinkled Chilton manual, and figure his way thru jobs like brakes, axles, spark plugs, etc. I didn't have any interest for it at 10 yrs old, but later in life, following his example, I found I had a knack for it, and enjoyed it. I took a leap and enrolled in technician school in 2012. 11 yrs later, I am still humble and always learning, but proudly one of the best options you will find for your automotive needs.

Established in 2014.

Specialties

Lifetime Automotive is a full-range professional mobile auto repair service, independently operated by myself: Tech-School-trained & certified Technician Adriel (or nickname Lucky). I operate on principles of education, transparency, practicality and mutual empowerment. I'm very good at what I do, but because of my minimalist business model (no shop rent, no employee payroll, etc), I can charge half of what you'd pay most shops. According to CARMD, the 2022 average hourly labor rate for shops is approx. $135-145/hr. My flat rate is $75/hr for most cases [American/Asian vehicles], and $85-$90/hr for certain European, diesel or electric vehicles. I usually perform repairs at the customer's home or workplace, or even road-side in some cases. I bring everything I'll need with me, (altho an electrical outlet within 50 ft is helpful). I usually supply parts, but you may buy them if you prefer. I've recently relocated to Austin TX from Charlotte NC, where I operated my business for the past 5 years and was privileged to build a large and loyal customer base. I look forward to building new relationships here in Texas. A diagnosis/initial appointment is generally $55-$70; however, if you just want the check engine light read, and you are able to drive it TO me, this can be less. I highly prefer texting for several reasons, not least of which is, convenient, redundant documentation. Cash is preferred. Other methods are accepted (VM, CA, PP, ZL, etc).
