Oliver Automotive is the best!! We've been going to Mike Oliver's shop for years and each time he is thorough in explaining the problem and equally as thorough in doing the repair work.  Not only does he and his mechanics provide excellent service, but he also is reasonably priced.  My husband and I highly recommend Oliver Automotive and the owner, Mike, is AWESOME!!   Your car is in excellent hands at Oliver Automotive. – Diane R (5 star review found on Yelp)

This place is great.  The guys didn't try and sell me unnecessary services.  They diagnose and fix what is needed.  What else could you ask for?  It is nice to support local business and not a chain.  I know my car is in good hands here. – Kevin M (5 star review found on Yelp)

Mike was amazing in his work on my boyfriend's car.  I was so worried when the problem persisted after his original diagnosis (it was actually something else that was causing the system to short) but after spending an extra two days on the car, he only charged an additional $50 dollars for the new part.  He was honest, quick, polite and easy to work with.  It is so nice to have an honest mechanic in town! – Jessica W (5 star review found on Yelp)

After 15 years of living in California, I've FINALLY found "My Mechanic".  Hands down, the best service I've ever had.  That's coming from someone that has family members and friends that are mechanics.  I have 4 cars and I've had them all at Oliver's over the last 4 months for various reasons and they have been flawless each and every time.  It's nice when you can get the right diagnosis of a problem after less than a minute of talking to your mechanic.  The best thing about this place is that they are just trying to fix your car.  They are not trying to gouge you like the dealerships.  They do everything needed to get your car going and don't try to hunt for things to fix.  And if something is not right, Mike is ON it immediately.  Very easy to talk to, flexible, affordable, accountable, and organized.  Most importantly, fair and honest.  I would (and have) recommend these guys to EVERYONE. – Shawn L (5 star review found on Yelp)

I've owned seven cars and blown through several mechanics over the years but Mike and his team are the only guys that I trust my business with now.  In the last six months, we've taken three cars to him and he has provided exceptional service and terrific value.  Even when I was out of town and my wife had a concern, he serviced the vehicle on the spot.  The best! – Robb D (5 star review found on Yelp)

Mike was SO nice and very professional. He was honest and helped me right away. I would recommend this automotive shop to all of my friends and family. – Michelle D (5 star review found on Yelp)

Mike is the best Novato has to offer for automotive repair, my catalytic converter went out on my 2005 Mustang, he had it fixed in a day at way less the dealership wanted. He's just the man. Do yourself a favor, go Oliver Automotive for all your Automotive Repairs. – Judy G (5 star review found on Yelp)

Personable service, quick turnaround, fair rates.  I'm very happy with the repairs to my van from past visits.  Today they fixed a different repair issue for me, which I needed to have my van towed to their shop for.  It turned out to be something minor that caused a major problem of me not driving (power steering went out).  They fixed the problem in about a minute and checked a couple of other things for me too.  And didn't charge me anything!  My van arrived on a tow truck, and I drove it home within minutes, and wasn't charged anything.  Oliver's is totally trustworthy and honest.  At another shop, my situation today could have been easily exploited and I could easily have been taken advantage of.  THANK YOU SO MUCH Oliver's! – Jan S (5 star review found on Yelp)
