Coeur d'Alene Auto Repair

Service, expertise, location, friendliness - these are all just some of the things that describe Silverlake Automotive. These guys really know their stuff, and you can rest easy knowing that your vehicle will be very well taken care of when you bring it to them.

So I've had my used van for 2 1/2 years, and thought I was pretty lucky that she hadn't seemed to have 'too many' issues in that time. Still, I knew something had been up, and just didn't have the funds to take care of it. Unfortunately, I did notice something recently that had me worried enough to take it into a shop. For some reason, my usual place no longer exists (YIKES!), and so I went with the highest rated shop in the area. Yep, that'd be Silverlake Automotive. Sadly f...or me autoshops aren't open on the weekends, meaning that I was without my car for five days total.. Still, I've got to say these are the friendliest guys in an auto-shop that I've EVER met. Seriously, I wish I would have used them sooner! $3250 later (yes, that many repairs, and of course labor was a chunk of that), my car was ready. But it wasn't, because suddenly the check engine light was on. They checked that issue, fixed it, but... oh.. that look on Steve's face. I just knew that there was something else wrong. So back in the following morning (this morning, as I just got home) to get the yet another issue fixed. My van practically purrs now, which for that price it darn well better all things considered. Hah! All around, I am very pleased with the quality of work as well as the friendliness of the staff that I've encountered. :) I'll see you guys in a few months for my oil change!

Its never easy to trust a shop you don't know via long distance. My son recently broke down in Coeur D'Alene with an overheating truck and no experience to know how to troubleshoot or fix it. My son called me, I started looking up mechanics near his location and came up with Silverlake Automotive. They had pretty good reviews, and I decided to give them a shot. Glad I did. They reassured me from the get go that they would get to looking at the car as quick as they could, which they did. I got a call the next morning advising me of the problem, and how they would go about fixing it. All their pricing was quite reasonable, and I am grateful for how quickly and efficiently they got the car back to running well. They probably could have given me a story about how it needed this and that to correct a problem, charged me a fortune, and I never would have been the wiser. Instead they found the problem fixed it easily, and got us on our way with the truck within 24 hours with a very reasonable price. In my mind, thats a top notch shop.Thank you Silverlake Automotive for everything you did over the last 24 hours, it is very much appreciated. Sincerely,Eric Tandberg

These guys are great, they always take care of me and have a shuttle so you don't have to wait around for your car.

These guys are awesome. We were on a road trip driving a Vanagon and broke down. They were able to help us out in a pinch and got us back on the road so we were able to make it home. Their customer service is excellent and their mechanics are professional and thorough. Highly recommend this shop!

Top-notch customer service. Went above and beyond what I asked for, free of charge. Explained everything they did and why they did it. I will return, and recommend Silver Lake Automotive to all my friends and family.

My brakes froze up so I had my car towed to Silverlake Automotive in Coeur d'Alene on Hanley Avenue. The brakes loosened up when it was towed. They checked out my car and said it was fine. The guys there didn't charge me anything to check it out! They just said it needs to be driven more as it is my second car. I appreciated their honesty and great service. I usually don't spend my time on reviews unless some place does an exceptional or horrible job. From now on I will definately take both my cars there for service.....

Silverlake Automotive is a great place for total car care! They have an extremely knowledgeable, friendly, honest staff that has provided great service each and every time I go there! The guys at the front desk are always so wonderful, greeting me with a smile, making sure I am informed on any situation with my vehicle and answering any questions I may have in a very professional manner! The mechanics have always done a great job getting my car in at the time of appointment and being honest with any car issues that they may find. I would highly recommend Silverlake Automotive to anyone looking for something as small as an oil change to a new set of brakes! These guys are great! Not to mention, they always have great drinks in their waiting area! :)

Silverlake Automotive has always taken care of my car and the team always breaks down all services in a way that even I can understand. :) Fred always has a smile on his face and is always willing to go the extra mile and the Techs always have a great attitude. I recommend this shop for locals, or folks just passing through town! Thanks Silverlake Automotive!
