“went to this shop after extensive internet research on why my car wouldn't pass smog.”
“Thank you ray for the great service”
“this is an unbiased opinion that although the young man was quick his welds were extremely bad i needed show qaulity and i did not get that.”
I really don't know what getting "hit on" by someone has to do with the quality & expertise of a business. You can't blame a guy for trying. Maybe you should just take that as a compliment, & be thankful. As for another complaint I read here, if you are a perfectionist & want that level of welding, maybe you should have gone to a super-expensive expert welder, then maybe, just maybe...you wouldn't bitch (or do it yourself, then you can't complain). These are simply my impressions & I personally am not associated with this business in any way.
OVERALL a great expierience. Took my classic 302 Falcon down to Ray and got true duals all the way back with the copy flow's, and now she runs better than ever. Trust me, I went to MANY east county muffler shops and found no one who knew instantly how to do a PROPER exhaust system on a falcon like Ray did. No one was even near the initial quote price that Ray gave me, and I was looking to go out in front of the rear wheels with the other shops. You cant beat Rays price for a quality full exhaust system. He got it done in about a work days time, but Im not afraid afraid of giving people time to do a job right. Looks great, sounds even better, I'm thoroughly pleased with the results. Ray knows his stuff and seems like a pretty cool guy, I would definitely reccomend his work.
I am very pleased with the quality of the work done on my car at Valley Muffler, at an affordable price as well. The owner, Raymond Miera was very helpful, quickly figured out the problem with my car and fixed not only what I brought it in for but also fixed my trunk latch at no extra charge.
I've been to Valley Muffler twice, and
both times I left feeling as though I had spoken to a genuine, HONEST, and respectable (not mention knowledgeable) mechanic. Raymond Miera is a complete gem of a guy and has no ulterior motives when it comes to helping you with your car issues/add-ons.
The first time I came in I wanted to have an exhaust leak welded, but Raymond told me that the leak was so tiny that it was practically sealing itself as the metal would heat up after a couple minutes of driving and wasn't necessary to have work done on. This guy is so honest that he even turns down your money!
Time number two: I had multiple leaks in both my driver's-side and passenger side exhaust manifolds, and not only did Ray fix them to perfection, but he even agreed to do it for me when it meant he'd have to stay 2-3 hours after work to get the job done. Oh and he also gave me his CD consisting of awesome fingerstyle guitar tracks to listen to (and even take home and burn) while I waited for the work on my car to be finished. And not only did he complete the job in a timely manner, but he completed it to perfection.
If you're looking for an intelligent, hard-working and honest person to do work on your car, bring it to Valley Muffler in West Covina.

our review.
We had an unexpected out of town trip and needed to get an bad exhaust leak fixed before hand. I talked to Mr mira
on the phone on Monday evening and he told me to bring it by the next morning at 8am and he would make it his first car and i would be out of there in a few minutes. since he had already put his welder and tools away I agreed to come back at 8am. I arrived at 8 am and he was not there in fact he did not arrive until almost 9am and then was in a surly mood . by the time he opened up and got all his equipment set up and got my leak fixed it was 10:45 am. he charged me 25.00 more than he quoted me as well. the weld was fine cant mess up a small weld too badly I guess.
Stop the bashing. This has done nothing but good work for many family and friends. Military and seniors.with over 25 yrs. In this line of work I guess one person upset isn't to bad. Thank you all for the support and know if there is ever an issue with are you can count on us to correct the problem.
