Went in for an oil change, and ended up with an issue that was on hold, being repaired at the same time! Nate noticed the seriousness of this repair, and in spite of their already full schedule, they accommodated me then and there. I wouldnt expect this anywhere, so a huge THANK YOU! for taking care of this issue and saving me another visit. ELITE is and always has been a complete pleasure to do business with. No one enjoys going in for car repairs and/ or maintenance, but somehow this place makes it all seem a-ok! True professionals and friendly staff. Again, my thanks to Nate, Carlo, Sam and Mike as well as anyone else who worked on my car. You guys are GREAT!

Michael, thank you for the fantastic review! We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience with our team. It is truly rewarding to know that our dedication to customer satisfaction and expert car care is recognized. We will make sure to pass on your kind words to Nate, Carlo, Sam, and Mike, as they will be delighted to hear about your appreciation. Thank you for choosing ELITE, and we look forward to serving you again!

I started coming to Elite about a year ago and have been extremely impressed with how thorough their inspections and work is. They have been nothing but transparent in what my car needs 'today' vs in 6 months. You can tell they want to form a long term customer relationships. They are, by a country mile, the best mechanics I've worked with in Rhode Island. Recently I took my old car (20yrs old) in and I could tell they were implying it might be time for a new car, which admittedly it was. Its that kind of honesty that will mean I'll be a customer there as long as I have a car.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Dana! We truly appreciate your loyalty and are thrilled to hear about your positive experiences at Elite. It's always our goal to provide transparent and honest service to our customers. We're here for you whenever you need us, whether it's for repairs or advice. Thanks again for choosing us as your go-to mechanics, and we look forward to serving you for years to come!

Great service and excellent communication. I struggled with a highway shimmer above 68MPH for a year in my 2025 VW Atlas. The dealer changed tires, road force balanced with no luck. Elite performed their road force balance and the shimmer is gone!!! Great work!

Thank you Justin for the great review! We are glad to hear that you had an excellent experience with us and that the issue with your car was resolved. We look forward to seeing you and servicing your Volkswagen in the future!

Price compared. We took our Porsche Macan to ELITE because it was out of warranty and we thought we could save a bit. Their quote seemed high so we got a second quote from Porsche. You be the judge. Replace control panel: ELITE $3,353 Porsche $2,697 Brake fluid flush: ELITE $237 Porsche told us the fluid was clear and was changed only a year earlier. This is very troubling!!! Tire plug: ELITE $55 Actually $10 ELITE quoted us $292 for a analysis. The actual charge $308. Porsche quoted $250 for an analysis, and charged us $250. ELITE wanted $950 over what Porsche did the job. If you're going to charge shop fees with an analysis, then you should include it in your quote. It's only $16 so why would you not disclose that.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Susan. Regarding the control panel replacement, this can be a complex repair. A portion of the original estimate included programming that we were not certain would be required. That should have been clearly communicated during the initial discussion, and I sincerely apologize if that was not explained thoroughly. We appreciate you pointing this out, and we will be improving how we communicate these details moving forward. For transparency, remote programming is $300, and the part itself must be sourced directly from Porsche, which contributes to the overall cost. In reference to the brake fluid flush, you are correct that the fluid appeared clear. However, brake fluid service is not based on appearance alone. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture over time. Our testing showed a moisture content of 4%, which is at the upper limit of the tester and indicates the fluid is due for replacement to maintain proper braking performance and safety. For the tire repair, our $55 service includes dismounting the tire and performing an internal patch. This method allows us to inspect the inside of the tire for any additional damage and provides a more reliable, long-term repair. External plugs are considered a temporary solution and are not something we offer due to safety and liability concerns. Regarding the diagnostic and shop fees, you are absolutely right. These should have been clearly disclosed upfront, and I apologize that this was not the case. We are addressing this internally to ensure better communication with all future clients. We truly value your feedback and the opportunity to improve. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact us at 401-736-8942 and ask for Sam Paiva. I would be happy to speak with you directly.
