Gresham Auto Wrecking

I’m working on a Mini Cabrio for fun. I saw a listing on Craigslist and gave them a call about an exhaust. When the man on the phone told me the price, I told him I would come get it the next morning. The part was listed at about $2k new from aftermarket dealers. The cheapest I had found after about a month of hunting around was $500, plus a lot of shipping from Texas. I got it for less than half of that, free pickup, and it’s in great condition. The only problem is that I hadn’t really prepared to separate the resonator pipe from the exhaust and took the Mini for a drive instead of a car big enough to carry any amount of cargo. Sergio helped me try to separate the pieces with PB blaster, an impact wrench, a prybar, and a lot of us playing tug of war. I finally told him I’d just come back with a more realistic car than a convertible and take the exhaust in one piece. He really went above and beyond to give me a hand to try to save me the trouble of making a return trip that afternoon. Merchandise at a wrecker is always going to be a gamble, but working with people who are genuinely helpful and willing to improvise a little goes a long way.

Want to give a shout to Gresham Auto Wrecking. These guys are awesome. I called about some parts I was needing for my Volvo Xc90. Mike took the time to answer all my questions & he found the parts at a fraction of the cost of new. He was helpful and very professional. If your looking for a replacement part, don’t go to the high priced auto dealers, call Mike over at Gresham Auto wreckers 1st. Maybe they have it, can’t hurt to call.

Drive a little & save a lot at Gresham Auto wreckers. Thx Guys.

I wanna give a shout out to the guys at Gresham auto wrecking… They are awesome. I called Saturday and talked to Fred about a drive line for my e46 coupe. He didn’t have one in stock, so I called back Monday to see I’d I could order one. He told me he’d already called a couple places and couldn’t find one. During chatting with him, I told him I was car sharing with my wife while my e46 was down, who works downtown portland while I work on the east end of Columbia blvd. He decided to call a couple more vendors and eventually found me one.

When I went after work to pick it up, I accidentally left my wallet on the counter. I called back after 5 (closing time) and he answered, expecting it to be me. The guys stayed almost an hour after closing time so I could get back across town to pick it up!

I can’t be happier with the service they provided, and the quality of the part. They are stand up guys. I will DEFINITELY be using them again!

I have a 2001 Volvo that seems to need another part on a regular basis! I discovered this location a few years back and I am constantly amazed by how efficient and accommodating they have been. Prices for all items have always been reasonable, and the questions I ask are always answered very honestly about whether they are the best solution.

EVERYTIME It has been mike who has helped me. And to be honest, I have never seen an employee anywhere who could provide the level of customer service he does, while balancing three phones ringing and working with the customers in the shop with kindness and super efficient service. Finally got around to writing this review because they, and especially mike, have been long deserving of recognition for the great work!

I love my car… and it got rear-ended on the interstate. Insurance took one look and totalled it. Car runs fine, back-end was beat up. I found Gresham, and they just happened to have the exact same car, and most of the parts I needed to get back on the road. Mike helped me out, and it was the best experience ever. They are definitely car people and understand the value in keeping a perfectly good vehicle on the road. I had my parts delivered to my driveway, and they’re perfect. I’d recommend Gresham to all my friends.
