Preventative Maintenance

Booked at your address across San Diego and the nearby cities — home or work, with our own equipment.

Engine bay of a car after mobile service work

What it is

Routine service is the cheapest work a car ever needs, and the easiest to put off when it means giving up a morning at a shop. We bring the oil change, the spark plugs or the tune-up to wherever the car is parked.

It is also when small problems get caught early. While the hood is up, anything that looks worn or is leaking gets pointed out, so it can be dealt with before it leaves you stranded.

  • Oil changes
  • Spark plugs
  • Tune-ups
  • Battery replacement
  • Check engine diagnostic

Paula N. — I highly recommend both the mobile mechanic and detailing services. Carly and Geoffrey are professional, honest and detail oriented. They go above and beyond in the services they offer. Highly recommend.

Laura Z. — 100000% recommend ! I went through so many mechanics & these guys are the BEST! Super affordable & honest! MOST IMPORTANTLY RELIABLE!! straightforward with everything , respectful and clean work!

Susan H. — My 10 year old car looks like new! C & G Mobile were professional, on time, and did a fabulous job. I highly recommend them to anyone who appreciates attention detail. Thank you, C&G!!!

Adam H. — They have detailed both my cars several times, and each time I’m blown away with how great the cars look when they are done! We have a big family so sometimes the inside can get pretty bad, but once they detail it everything is feeling brand new. They are friendly and courteous as well, and come out to us to do the work, which is really convenient.
