    Great job by the team getting cars in and out with everything done right the first time. So glad to have people I can trust to take care of my vehicles!

    This was my first visit, and I was greeted with friendly customer service.The Auto technicians were informative about the problem with my vehicle and stayed after closing to complete the job with a positive attitude.Thank you all, great job on my little red car!I recommend and will return for future car maintenance 👌

    They did a good job on my bmw and got me back on the road with no problems, I will be seeing them again in the future for other work I will have done on my other cars.

    Foreign Auto Clinic completed all the repairs I requested on my 2004 Boxster in a timely manner. I highly recommend them.

    This is a first class company. Paula and Davin are genuine and very helpful in many ways. They have saved me money and time from the sharks at Mercedes Benz of Waco. It is so refreshing to bring my cars to them. Honesty is so rare in this industry. I am so great full. Thanks again

    I have nothing other than very nice things to say about this shop. Back in May, I had a coolant leak on my car, which was a plastic crossover pipe. I replaced it with aluminum and it was still leaking from a different spot. After putting my car back together, it was leaking at the very front of the engine. I decided to take my car over to Foreign Auto Clinic to help fix the issue, since I did not feel confident in tearing the car down a 3rd time.They were able to diagnose the vehicle, and fix whatever repairs I needed, and did it in a timely manner. I highly recommend this place for any Jaguar/Land Rover vehicle. As of writing this review, I did 2 launches from 0-75 with no weird noises, or coolant loss. Very very happy to get my car back up and running.

    When we couldnt get adequate service from the local Toyota dealer service department, we were referred here by another makers service depot. Foreign Auto Clinic scored high on all counts - great & knowledgeable customer service, fast turnaround, and acceptable costs. The physical building is clean and tidy. Were taking our Toyota here from now on.

    Solid and timely work on several of my foreign cars… Love FCA!

    Davin was wonderful helping me diagnose and repair a concealed washer fluid leak. He and his technicians expertly repaired the leak and even went thru the effort of drying my carpets. Highly Recommend !

    I took my 2016 Mini Cooper S in for repairs that were estimated by another service facility at 3 times higher than Foreign Auto Clinics estimate. They completed the work to my great satisfaction on time and on budget. I was very pleased with the professionalism and friendliness of the service advisors and the parts department specialist. The office looks to have been recently remodeled and is a pleasant place to conduct business. I highly recommend Foreign Auto Clinic for your foreign car repair needs.

  • Review 11 (2024-12-21 - Rating: 5)

    I had my 2008 Volvo C70 with nearly 190k miles towed to this shop for several problems: would not crank, needed a new timing belt, previous error code diagnostics indicated cam shaft/timing issues. Davin’s team installed my new (Volvo OEM spec) Continental timing belt and water pump, and they purchased a few extras (after confirming first with me: other engine drive and accessory belts, oil separator, spark plugs etc) and worked with me to source a few other higher ticket item parts (all Volvo OEM) ie timing belt sprockets and engine mount at the BEST price from Volvo OEM part retailers in the region and online.They also gave me a print out of the scanned error codes, and shared their diagnostic / troubleshooting plan.They were very fair, always communicated well, and served me well (didn’t double charge labor once deep in the engine). The cost of maintaining high mileage European cars (I’ve had 4 Volvos total, still have 2 of them) isn’t lost on me. Foreign Auto Clinic is fair in their service pricing (viz labor) and communicate well with their customers sourcing the best OEM parts (local parts stores are limited with European cars).I highly recommend Foreign Auto Clinic for any Volvo or European car owner in the Waco and surrounding area. Davin is an excellent manager and has an outstanding team. Well done folks.Update 19 Dec 24, Foreign Auto Clinic once again took nice care (diagnosis and repair) of my daughter’s 2006 BMW X5. They interpreted the error codes, and fixed what was most important to me. A great shop for the Waco area.

    Great communication and good pricing. Had my condenser replaced for the ac, and works awesome. Couldnt be happier. Will diffantly go back on any type of repairs.

  • Review 13 (2024-05-22 - Rating: 5)

    It was my first visit to the Foreign Auto Clinic……..it was an excellent experience. They looked my car over and gave me a few items that needed to be addressed. I received a call to go over the list and I picked the ones that I wanted taken care of that day. Service was quick and workers polite and helpful. I will be back!

  • Review 14 (2024-12-06 - Rating: 5)

    Outstanding service from the time you enter the office with great performance.They were the only ones I trusted with my Volvo and now with my E 350 Mercedes. A real comfortable atmosphere as well.

  • Review 15 (2025-02-02 - Rating: 5)

    They were honest and let me know the car wasnt worth the repairs it needed. They didnt charge a storage fee. Nice, polite people!

  • Review 16 (2024-12-06 - Rating: 5)

    Very pleased with efficiency and cost of repairs to our BMW x5.

  • Review 17 (2025-02-11 - Rating: 5)

    The only place I take my Mercedes to be repaired. A place where I don’t have to worry about being overcharged. They’re very personable and treat you like family.

  • Review 18 (2023-05-12 - Rating: 5)

    Save time and money. Take your vehicle with confidence to Central Texas’ home of the most honest, experienced, efficient and best value all around, service professionals in the industry. You will only pay for the services you need. I have my Mercedes serviced there, as for all of my vehicles, regardless of make and model. If you are in need of service, take advantage of the opportunity to do business with FAC. Waco is lucky to have these professionals.

  • Review 19 (2024-09-19 - Rating: 5)

    It didn’t take them long to change oil and check all other fluids.

  • Review 20 (2015-03-24 - Rating: 5)

    Had a great experience with Luikarts! I have a 2011 Volvo C30 with over 110K miles and one day the engine started whistling and vibrating badly. Took it over and Ken immediately knew what was wrong and did a great job repairing- no problems since. The price was very fair after a search online. The folks are very friendly as well- would highly recommend to anyone.

  • Review 21 (2020-12-10 - Rating: 5)

    I was honestly a bit concerned when my Lexus LS500 fsport water pump went out over the Thanksgiving holiday while in Waco. I called Luikarts after realizing there was no Lexus dealership close to me. Luikarts was very helpful, identified the problem, communicated well with me during the repair, and did an overall great job. I would trust them 100% with my vehicle again. Good people.

  • Review 22 (2025-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend! Friendly to the wallet and very professional.

  • Review 23 (2021-05-15 - Rating: 5)

    I completely trust Luikarts with my daughter’s car. They are transparent, responsive and provide amazing service. I do appreciate their honesty -hard to find nowadays. Cheers to the team.

  • Review 24 (2015-03-26 - Rating: 5)

    I love Luikarts. I have always trusted Kenny and his crew, and I havent been wrong. I drive a 2001 Ford Sport Track with 260,000 miles and still going strong. Sure, its a great truck, but Kennys service has had a lot to do with keeping it running smoothly and being fuel-efficient. Thanks guys!

  • Review 25 (2015-03-20 - Rating: 5)

    I have been TREMENDOUSLY pleased with Luikarts! I came to Waco, TX for Baylor University and wanted to find a trustworthy mechanic that I could rely on being so far from home. I certainly found that with Ken!I have taken my 04 Volvo to Ken for the past 3 years and my car is serviced quickly, the issue is always resolved, and it is for a reasonable price.Recently, I had an issue with my Volvo and Ken was very honest and said that I should take it to the Volvo dealership in Temple, TX, because they could get the part for cheaper than he was able to. He wanted to save me the extra money, instead of taking the business for himself.Then, while it was at the Volvo dealer, I asked those mechanics if they could check out the cars alignment. They drove the car and told me I needed a new power steering rack and that it would be about $4,000!I took it to Ken a few days later and I am SO glad that I did! Ken put the car up on an alignment machine (which Volvo did not do) and found that my control arm bushings were completely worn out on both sides of the car. This was causing the problem and my power steering was fine! He was able to replace the part incredibly quickly and for only $1,000! If I had stayed with the Garlyn Shelton Volvo dealership, I would have paid an obscene price and never resolved the problem!!Also, two years ago, I took my car to Kens and he found that I needed the left front axle replaced. He promptly fixed the problem and had my car returned within a few days. Several months later, I noticed my car was driving a little funny and brought it back to him. He diagnosed that the left front axle had been a faulty part and immediately offered to replace it immediately, completely for free!A previous customer commented that he was concerned with the guarantee of his services, because it is not in writing. Ken always stands by his word and his service! There was never a question whether he would make me pay or not. He immediately offered to fix it, even though it was the part manufacturers fault and not his.I 100% recommend Ken Luikart to anyone looking for a trustworthy mechanic!!!!!Also, Sandy, the woman that works in the front office, is LOVELY and a joy to see everytime I bring my car in! So, stop by and say hello :)

    Ken is great. I was out of town and Ken and his crew helped my wife with some engine oil viscosity issues (caused by me naturally) on our Audi A4 Avant. Cant thank these guys enough.

  • Review 27 (2018-12-28 - Rating: 5)

    Lifesaver! Visiting Waco for a wedding. Our 2011 Volvo started making a terrible noise and the Check Engine Light came on. Closest Volvo dealer in Temple. Found Luikarts with google and walked in when they opened. They were stacked up but offered to try to get to it in the afternoon. Recommended another service provider, but when I called them, they gave me the same story. They had cars lined up and probably could not get to it till afternoon and any repairs probably not till the next week. Called Luikarts back with that information, they said come back down and they would at least try to determine the problem. End result. They got it fixed by 4:00p at a reasonable cost. Highly recommend them.

  • Review 28 (2018-02-23 - Rating: 5)

    I can’t say enough good things about this place. The people at Luikarts are genuine and don’t try to upsell you. They get things done in a timely manner, they use OEM parts, and they are very patient and willing to answer all of your questions. I’ve gotten all of my spark plugs re done here as well as getting my low beam lights replaced and they have made it such a smooth process. HIGHLY RECCOMMEND.

  • Review 29 (2018-02-21 - Rating: 5)

    My daughter is a Baylor student and we always take her car to Luikarts for oil change and repairs. They are so friendly and make every effort to fix your car. If they can’t then they will tell you what you need and where to get it checked out.

  • Review 30 (2024-10-09 - Rating: 5)

    Always great to communicate with, friendly, and very informative staff.

  • Review 31 (2021-04-17 - Rating: 5)

    They seem to genuinelycare about your car problems. Call ahead of time to make sure they can assist you. If you have an import this is the place to go. Way better than any of the local dealerships.

  • Review 33 (2019-07-29 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent service! After going to several places they finally listened to me here and were able to figure out what was wrong with my car! And they didn’t recommend extra stuff just to make more money.
