I'm in Santa Monica. Reasonably priced independent auto repair is fast disappearing from this side of town due to gentrification and high commercial rents.
For big (= expensive) jobs, I recommend K+H Import Repair** in Canoga Park. I had them do the timing belt/WP/valve cover gaskets recently and am quite pleased.
But Canoga Park is too far to go for small jobs.
The only local shop I have used, that I like, (but only for brake/suspension service) is Samo Wheel and Brake (see Howard) in Santa Monica. But it's not 'cheap'...just good, IMO.
** EDIT(2022 October): There appears to have been an ownership change at K+H--went by and all new people working there.
