What We Do
Service, without the runaround.
From a quick oil change to a full engine job, every visit starts with the same thing: a careful diagnosis and a clear conversation before any work begins.
-
Engine Diagnostics & Repair
Check-engine lights, misfires, leaks, timing — diagnosed first, repaired only after we explain what's needed and why.
-
Brakes & Suspension
Pads, rotors, calipers, struts and shocks. Quiet, confident stopping power and a ride that feels right again.
-
Transmission Service
Fluid services, leak repairs and full diagnostics. Honest assessments instead of a rushed rebuild quote.
-
Oil & Routine Maintenance
Conventional, synthetic blend or full synthetic — plus filters, fluids and a multi-point inspection on every visit.
-
Electrical & Battery
Starting, charging and electrical gremlins traced to the source. No guesswork, no parts-cannon repairs.
-
Tires & Alignment
Mounting, balancing, rotations and alignments — so your tires last and the steering tracks straight.
About the Shop
A small shop with a long memory for cars.
D's Auto Repair is an independent, family-run shop on East 7th Avenue in Tampa. We work on daily drivers, work vehicles and the occasional project car, and we treat every one of them like it has to make it home tonight.
We diagnose first, talk it through, then quote it. No upsells, no scare tactics, no surprise add-ons on the invoice. That approach is why most of our customers keep coming back — and why a lot of them now bring their kids' cars in too.

Broke down two hours from home right across from his shop. A few hours and three engine parts later, I was on the road again — and the bill was completely fair. The car runs better now than it did that morning. Thank you, David.

I cannot recommend D's enough. I'd struggled with a transmission leak for three months while another shop kept brushing it off. They actually listened, found the issue, and fixed it cleanly. That's how it should work.
-
Had an emergency with our van and they evaluated it immediately, then worked around our schedule to get it fixed. Honest business, honest price. We'll be bringing all of our equipment here whenever we're near Tampa.
-
Great service, great price. They've brought several of my cars back to life over the years and never tried to sell me on work I didn't need.
