Orlando, FL · Kennedy Blvd · Since 2015

Nobody could find the fault.

Claudio Canete has been finding what other shops give up on since 1999. Electrical gremlins, CAN network faults, phantom coolant loss, check engine lights that keep coming back. Diagnosis first, then the repair.

How it works

Find it first.
Fix it second.

Plenty of shops replace parts until the symptom goes away. That is your money paying for their guesses. Here the order is reversed.

STEP 01

You call

407-790-4417. Tell us the vehicle and what it is doing. Bring it to the shop on W Kennedy Blvd, Monday through Friday.

STEP 02

We find it

Scan, test and trace until the actual fault is identified. Then we explain what is wrong and why, in plain language, before any work starts.

STEP 03

You approve

Price quoted up front. Nothing gets replaced on a hunch and nothing gets touched until you say yes.

About the shop

Run by Claudio.
Since 1999.

Claudio Canete has been repairing vehicles since 1999 and has run Claudio Mobile Auto Repairs in Orlando since 2015. He and his team diagnose the fault properly before any parts go on, then explain exactly what is wrong and why, in plain language. You deal with the people actually working on your car, not a front desk reading off a screen.

  • Diagnosis before parts. Always in that order.
  • You get told what is wrong and why, not just what it costs.
  • Comfortable with European, CAN network and new-tech electrical work others turn away.
  • Se habla español. Explain the problem in whichever language is easier.

Dozens of reviews on Google, and more arriving. They are worth reading in full, on Google, where you can see they are real and current.

★★★★★

Found what others missed

The theme that comes up most. Customers describe arriving after two or three other shops had already tried and failed, on everything from a mis-wired sensor to an electrical fault behind a dead A/C.

01Most mentionedOn Google reviews
★★★★★

Explained, not just fixed

The second recurring note. People mention being walked through what was actually wrong and how it would be repaired, before the work started rather than after the invoice.

02Second most mentionedOn Google reviews
★★★★★

Fair on labor

Repeatedly called out by owners of European cars who had been quoted dealer prices elsewhere. Several reviews come from people who had been considering replacing the vehicle entirely.

EVERY JOB IS QUOTED BEFORE ANY WORK BEGINS. CALL 407-790-4417 FOR A QUOTE. NOTHING IS REPLACED WITHOUT YOUR APPROVAL.

Q1Do you come to me?

No. The business name has said mobile since 2015 and it has not changed, but the work happens at the shop at 870 W Kennedy Blvd in Orlando. Bring the vehicle in during shop hours.

If it will not start or is not safe to drive, call first and we will tell you whether it is worth towing in.

Q2What does the diagnosis cover?

A full scan, live data and the circuit testing needed to find the actual fault rather than the most likely one, including sensor, emissions and fuel and exhaust faults that set a check engine light.

The diagnosis is charged as its own line, because that is the work. Call 407-790-4417 for the current fee and a quote. You get told exactly what is wrong either way, whether or not you have the repair done here.

Q3Do you work on European cars?

Yes. BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Jaguar and Land Rover electrical, cooling and electronics work show up repeatedly in customer reviews, including cars other shops had already given up on.

Most makes and model years are welcome, from those European brands to the major Japanese and domestic ones. Call with the year, make and model before driving over so nobody wastes a trip.

Q4Do you warranty the work?

6 months on parts and labor for completed repairs.

It covers the repair we performed. It does not cover a different fault that turns up later on the same vehicle, which is why the diagnosis is done properly the first time.

Q5When are you open?

Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Closed Saturday and Sunday. Call 407-790-4417 during those hours.

Q6¿Hablan español?

Sí. Puede explicar el problema en español o en inglés, lo que le resulte más cómodo. Llame al 407-790-4417.

Before you come by

  • 01Write down when it happensCold start, after twenty minutes, only in the rain. When a fault appears narrows it faster than any scanner.
  • 02Bring what the last shop told youOld invoices and part receipts save diagnostic time, and time is what you are paying for.
  • 03Do not clear the codesIf a warning light is on, leave it on. A cleared code erases the freeze frame data that shows what the car was doing when it faulted.
