Automotive Specialists
We have a night drop box. Feel free to drop off whenever it's convenient. Need a tow? We can help you. If you are in Georgetown area call Tip Tow @ 512-863-7300 and for the Round Rock area call Finger Towing @ 512-832-0877. OUR MISSION: To Return the Trust Originally Instilled by the Family Mechanic Through Honest, Ethical and Thorough Workmanship.

So we opened a small garage in Pflugerville in the late 90's. From a hole in the wall in the early 2000's into two beautiful businesses we run with integrity. John and Jeana Long own John and Corky's Automotive Specialist in Round Rock and in Georgetown. Also known as AUTOMOTIVE SPECIALIST, AUTO-SPEC, JCAS and JC AUTO SPEC, we are currently trying to simplify the business name to just AUTO-SPEC.

You are required to have a state inspection performed on your vehicle if you are planning on registering it in the state of Texas. We can perform this state inspection and provide you with the needed paper work to register your vehicle. You will need to show proof of insurance at the time of the inspection.
If you are looking to purchase a used car and would like to know what condition the vehicle is in before you invest your money in it. We offer a bumper to bumper inspection. The technician will spend an hour assessing the condition of the vehicle. We will give you written estimate on any repairs or services the vehicle will need and prioritize the repairs for you.
The technical requirements for the HPDE are just common sense checks to make sure your vehicle is in good, safe working order. It is important for you to check out your car before trying to get it inspected. You and the shop only want to do it once per event. Here I will go over the different categories of the technical form with some short explanations.
Maintaining proper alignment is fundamental to preserving both your car's safety and its tread life. Wheel alignments ensure that all four wheels are consistent with each other and are optimized for maximum contact with the surface of the road. The way a wheel is oriented on your car is broken down to three major components; camber, caster, and toe.
Auto-Spec provides a complete range of auto repair services for all types of brake systems at our shop. Each technician knows the importance of your understanding how the brake system in your vehicle plays a vital role in keeping you and your loved ones safe. The parts in the brake system aren't designed to for the life of your vehicle.

Automotive Specialist has been one of the best finds since we moved to Texas 6 years ago. They go above and beyond to make sure our vehicles are serviced without adding unnecessary repairs or costs. They are honest, hard-working, great at getting us in as needed and have provided the best maintenance and repair on our vehicles that we’ve experienced. They explain things well, will show the condition of a part they recommend changing, and never make you feel pressured or belittle you for rudimentary knowledge. Give them a try, you’ll be thankful you did!

We've been taking our cars here for many years. They always do an excellent job. It's one of the few mechanics I trust. I'm confident when they tell me what really needs to be fixed and what can wait. Thanks for taking such good care of us all these years, Ray and Mike and all the guys there!

We have taken our cars to Auto Spec for the past 14 years and have had great, honest and affordable service every time. They recently fixed 2 of my doors that would not open. I highly recommend them.

Extremely happy with Auto Spec! I've gone to them for all maintenance and repairs over four years. Mike and Ray are great at explaining what's wrong, what the options are, and what to be aware of in the future. They seem to genuinely care about keeping my costs low, in both the short term and the long run. They offer an ad-hoc shuttle service and send follow-up text messages to ensure I'm satisfied. No BS. Great work.

Everything you want from your mechanic it’s to be honest, trustworthy, right advice without any extras, fast and quality work with fair prices. Thanks to Mike and his team from Automotive specialists me and my wife (we have 2 cars) getting all of that during 9 years of experience with them. Those guys taking care of our cars like it’s their own! Thank you Mike! Thank you team! Keep going like you are doing, we are very happy from your service!! Highly recommended!!!

Over priced and not happy with work preformed.... they left parts off the vehicle and I could barely make it around the block , limped it back ... they installed the part they failed to put back on ... Yet when I 1st went in to pay they said it was good to go & the they test drove it after all Work was performed..... that was obviously a lie...

Excellent service, fair pricing, extremely trustworthy! They will never try to sell you something you don’t need, and they are very thorough in evaluating your vehicle for needed repairs or upcoming maintenance. I’ve been a customer for about 10 years, have no plans to change, I’ve always received excellent service.
