B Town Auto Repair Owner Operator Dave Zimmer

Greetings!

Greetings! I am Dave, owner/operator of B Town Auto Repair and I am here to help folks in Bloomington and the surrounding areas with their automotive repair and maintenance needs.

With my 20+ years of repair experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge that I draw from to help diagnose and repair your vehicle with speed, accuracy and professionalism that many other shops simply don't have. This includes brakes, starters, alternators, timing belts, tuneups, air conditioning systems and so much more.

My philosophy in business is to provide good, competent, and friendly service at a reasonable price. I take the time to explain the hows and whys of needed repairs, as well as visually show the problems to the customer so they can see for themselves what the problem is. Building customer trust is important to me. If the most appropriate service for your vehicle is a funeral service, I will tell you up front rather than waste your money. Trust is a bit of a lost virtue in our time but I have made it the foundation stone of my business.

It is my hope that the next time you require service or repairs on your vehicle, you will consider B Town Auto Repair over one of the big chain auto repair shops.

Call, text, email or stop by today.
Dave

Customer Reviews

Local Dealer told me the work I needed done on my car was going to be $3k. My Brother In Laws both recommended Dave. He had my car back up and running the next day and so far has saved me well over $700 compared to the dealer. He just did new front brakes and an Oil change today on my vehicle. My 2010 Honda Pilot with 150k miles will be in his hands anytime I need work done in the future. Not only is he a Nice and Honest person, he stands behind his work.

I HIGHLY recommend him and I already have to all my co-workers.

I have a 16 year old Acura and someone told me about Dave about the time I started needing belts and engine coils replaced. That was about 5 years ago and no one else will ever touch my car.

Knowledgeable. HONEST. Efficient. And no one's ever come close to his prices. More than once I've asked him if there was anything he could foresee me needing to take care of in the near future... "No - just call me if you need me". He could have easily taken advantage of me because I don't know squat about cars (and he knows it).

I could go on, but I won't.

Call Dave.

Called Dave and he got to me the next day. He was awesome to work with and he knows exactly what he is doing. He even let me and my dad watch the process and showed us each step. I called around to local shops and they all wanted a minimum and that did not even include the back brakes so I got all the brakes down for $75-100 less than the others wanted for just the front!  I will be calling Dave for all my car maintenance needs. Thanks again for an unbelievable job!

If I could give him 10 stars I would! Dave is the absolute best and is the first mechanic that I 100% trust. Not only is he professional, courteous, prompt, customer service oriented, and friendly but he is such an honest and trustworthy guy. His prices are the BEST around and he is the only mechanic I will ever let perform brake services on any of my vehicles. Dave, you have a lifetime customer here (even though you already know it) and I appreciate your professional services!

Dave seriously saved me!  Don't know how I just discovered him and I'll never use anyone else!

He is extremely knowledgeable and does not just work on brakes. He fixed a coworker's brakes and I asked if he could by any chance look at a squealing belt in my car.  He fixed it the next week and turns out the squealy belt was attached to my alternator and A/C compressor (I've been without AC for a year+ now and assumed it was a lost cause as I've had it "fixed" twice now and paid exorbitant amounts - my last quote was close to $1K)  so I now have ice cold AC back - my belts are no longer squealing and he even polished my headlights for free and topped off my coolant.  His workmanship is top notch, but the best part about Dave is his honesty.  He did not try to oversell or take advantage of my lack of knowledge regarding car parts.  He was open about my alternator needing to be fixed, though he said it should last me a few more months if I needed to wait on it.  He got me the best deals and his quote was exact - there were no hidden fees or an extra hundred or two tacked on.
