At Calderon Auto Repair, we skip the upsells and the jargon. You bring the car — we bring honest diagnoses, fair prices, and the kind of craftsmanship that keeps Austin drivers on the road for years.
ASE-Certified Techs
Trained & experiencedSqueaking, grinding, or soft pedals? We inspect, resurface, and replace brakes with quality parts — so you stop with confidence every time.
Check engine light on? We use advanced scan tools to pinpoint the problem fast — no guesswork, no unnecessary parts swaps.
From conventional to full synthetic — we keep your engine clean and running smooth, with transparent service records you can trust.
Slipping gears, delayed shifts, or fluid leaks? Our transmission specialists diagnose and repair both automatic and manual systems.
Bumpy rides, pulling to one side, or noisy suspensions — we restore your car's handling so it feels solid and safe on every road.
Austin heat is no joke. We recharge, repair, and replace your climate control system so you stay comfortable year-round.
Calderon Auto Repair has been a fixture on South Congress Ave since 1953. What started as a one-bay garage has grown into one of Austin's most trusted full-service auto repair shops — and we're proud of that.
Our philosophy is simple: treat every customer's car like it's our own, explain every repair in plain English, and never charge for something the vehicle doesn't actually need. That's how we've kept families and businesses coming back for generations.
We give you a detailed estimate before any work begins — no surprise charges, no hidden fees. If the scope changes, we call you first. Your trust matters more than a quick dollar.
Our team holds ASE certifications and trains continuously on the latest vehicle systems. From classic cars to the newest EVs, we have the tools and knowledge to get it right.
Every repair comes with our 24-month / 24,000-mile warranty. If something isn't right after we fix it, bring it back — we'll make it right at no extra cost to you.
"I've been bringing my cars here for over ten years. They've never once tried to upsell me on something I didn't need. That kind of honesty is impossible to find — and I won't go anywhere else."
"My check engine light came on right before a road trip to the Hill Country. Calderon diagnosed it the same day, had me back on the road by evening, and the price was exactly what they quoted — not a cent more."
"As a single mom, I was worried about getting ripped off. The team at Calderon explained everything in a way I could actually understand, and they even pointed out a minor issue they could fix for free. Genuine people."
Give us a call or stop by our South Congress shop. We'll figure out what your vehicle needs — and only what it needs.
