My 17' Golf R was in desperate need of carbon cleaning. (The misfires, loss of power was killin' me.) I've called everywhere and got 5 quotes and 2 different ways of cleaning this carbon issue. Enter Autowerkz, they was highly recommended from my coworker. (He's a "car guy" so I trust his opinion.) I spoke to Steve on the phone for a while, asked a bunch of question and made my appointment. Steve's price came in the middle of the pack and was also the closest to my house. I dropped off my sluggish Golf R at the shop and hoped for the best... let me tell you, my car felt like the day I brought it home. No more misfires and sluggishness. Steve is a honest person that does GREAT work and doesn't try to sell you services you don't need. (Like many stealerships, I mean dealerships.) Anyways, long story short. If u need anything done with your Audi, VW THIS IS THE GO-TO PLACE!! Steve will take care of you! read more

These people know what they're doing I trust them because they know exactly what they're doing with German cars

This is the best VW/Audi shop. Steve the (owner) took my Audi Q3 for a test drive on freeway & checked it out all for free. The issues I thought were bad were not. Finally a honest professional technician you can trust. They saved me a lot of money. I'm now able to do other needed repairs on my VW. This is the best shop around. If you need high quality work at at a great price this is the shop. I will not be going to any other shop from here on out. Highly recommend this shop. Thanks again... read more

I've been taking my 2007 Eos to Steve for the last 10 years or so. I trust him completely. He gives you the unvarnished truth and charges fair prices. What I really appreciate is that he doesn't fake it. If he can't work on something due to knowledge or equipment, Steve will tell you straight up and then provide suggestions. Trust the reviews here; Autobahn is the real deal, and I only wish they worked on Mercedes-Benz. read more

Great first experience. They were very accommodating and got my beloved B6 S4 in, diagnosed the issue and had me back on the road in just a few hours. They took the time to answer my questions, set expectations and seem to really know their stuff. They had been recommended on a popular Audi website, and their reputation seems well deserved. Their prices seemed pretty fair as well. Will definitely go back read more

This garage is a nice find! Brought my old Audi in to catch up on previous maintenance neglected by the previous owner. I spent a lot, but the prices weren't outrageous, especially compared to Audi dealers. Steve is great and very communicative. They definitely have a lifelong customer... or atleast until this car dies read more

Best VW/Audi shop in the area. Honest and competitively priced shop. You will not find another shop that knows more about VW/Audi automobiles. read more

I live in Lynnwood and drive all the way down just go to go Steve's shop at Autobahn Autowerkz. It's not as fancy as bringing it to Audi Seattle or Bellevue, but Steve and his team get the job done, and at way more affordable prices. Just driving onto the lot, all you see are Audis and VWs so you know they know what they're doing. He's never tried to upsell me on anything, and he let's me know what things might be coming up for maintenance to be ready next time. I went in for a brake job cause I got an alert on my car, and right from the first phone call he told me that he'll check how bad the rears are and if I don't have to replace them, then we can save it for next time. Ended up doing it anyways and he told me there's some oil leaking from a head gasket issue. Told me it's okay for now but eventually I'm going to want to get it replaced. Considering the age of my car, I already knew things like this was going to come up so I'm prepared. Either way, I'm only bringing my Audi here and nowhere else. read more

After years of taking my car to the Audi service center, and now that it's over 10 years old, I decided to try something different to save money. After doing lots of research, I landed at Steve's garage. He is on top of everything, knows the cars pretty well, and provides excellent advice on what needs to be done. The work is always on time and within budget. I've even started bringing my newer car for oil changes, and he's doing a great job keeping my older Q5 alive. I really appreciate his help and work, and I will continue to bring my cars to him for excellent service. read more

This past week my 2010 A3 started leaking coolant & I found myself with a $4700 quote from a local European shop claiming I need a water pump replacement, radiator hoses, an oil pan, sensor, oil change, spark plugs, ignition coils and a carbon cleaning. I've maintained this car on a 5k schedule for the 7 years I've owned it and had it serviced recently, so that didn't sound right to me. In pursuit of a new shop & a second opinion, I came across Autobahn Autowerkz. Gave Steve a call, quote was VERY fair, it was immediately apparent that Steve knows what he's talking about but he let me know upfront that they don't have spots available for the next few weeks. Contacted ~6 others shops hoping for availability or closer proximity to my house, but I personally believe that it pays to have my car serviced by Audi/VW people and not "European" folks (this experience proved my point!) and ultimately ended up reaching out to Steve again, assuming I'd have to wait to bring the car by. Instead, he told me that if I tow it over and don't need it for a few days they'll try to squeeze it into their schedule between cars. Had the car towed from Seattle midday Thursday and within the hour he'd taken a look, given me a call and let me know that the initial repairs I had him quote me for weren't necessary and diagnosed a leaky upper radiator hose due to a broken off plastic nipple. Steve and his team fixed me up by Friday afternoon, saved me $4000+ and got back to me with a very detailed invoice + service description. Truly, truly, I cannot say enough good things but the ones that matter most are the quality work, fair prices & honest diagnoses. No wonder they're busy! If you drive an Audi, this should be your shop. read more

Worst place I've taken my VW Gti . They tackled a job on my car to replace the water pump and thermostat , yet 9 months later the parts failed and started leaking. The owner gives the rant about how busy he is all the time and won't be able to see my vehicle for weeks , sometimes claims the entire month, always a sob story with this dude. I never questioned initial pricing quotes and yet the owner fails to recognize good customers who don't question the price or ask for a lower rate . read more

Such a great experience, same day service and great value. Will always go back to Steve for any work on my Jetta!

Steve and his team are the best! I've never met professionals that are so passionate about Audis. Highly recommended and will use their shop for life! read more

Steve and Autobahn Autowerkz is an excellent, honest, and trustworthy shop. I would not trust anyone else with my Audi.

Excellent service, great communication! Steve, the Owner always very honest, will explain all things that were done and will show you the old parts. He'll go the extra mile for his costumers. Awesome place. 100% recommended read more

Autobahn Autowerkz - Auto Repair Near Me - Seatac, Washington

Steve is the consummate mechanic, knowledgeable, reliable and friendly. Goes the extra mile for his customers.

I am new to the area and needed to find a place for my Volkswagen Passat. I tried calling a few places and ended up deciding to go with Steve because of the amazing reviews. Let me just say that the reviews are true! I came in because I had an EPC light coming on intermittently. The reasons this light could come on were scary (thank you google). After a throughout inspection, Steve let me know it was the level of oil. He told me what to watch out for in the future to make sure that doesn't happen again. His prices are fair and he is honest, which is rare to find! Also, support your local mom/pop shops! If you have a Volkswagen or Audi this is THE PLACE TO GO! Don't wait, make an appointment now! Thank you Steve! read more

Explanation are always clear and honest to work needed. Prices are reasonable and attention to detail is top notch. Best of the best in the PNW hands down. read more

This place is amazing and I am so happy to have found them. I'm new to the area and was worried leaving my old Indy shop in my hometown. Luckily I was referred to here. The quality of the service is impeccable and their prices are more then reasonable. They have meet my needs as a customer every time I visit. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and answer all my questions. read more

Autobahn Autowerkz - Audi R8 4.2L - Auto Repair Near Me - Seatac, Washington

2013 Audi S4. 75K maintenance + brake pads and rotors swapped + brake fluid flush Lucked out and Steve was able to put me in Friday morning when he had a cancellation Hooked me up with the maintenance and brake service at a much better cost than the dealership and he walked me through some additional items he saw and addressed. I appreciate his straightforward communication and so happy that there's a shop nearby I can trust. read more

I love local small business and these guys are great I took my Audi q3 and they are honest and work on the car really quick read more

Excellent service, communication and explanation of all work done. Highly recommend to all Audi owners.

BL;UF Steve is awesome. Definitely a must see if you have a VW or Audi. Any other car, still come here for oil changes, brake work, etc. I called Steve to take a look at an oil leak I'd been having. Since it persisted after I changed the oil pan, I became concerned that the source was some crazy place a normal mechanic wouldn't know about. Steve responded right away to my Yelp message, and I was able to set up an appointment the next morning to have him take a look at my car. I made the long drive from Port Orchard, (no way I was going to the dealer out here after looking at their terrible reviews) and showed up around 0930. He took the car for a quick drive around the block and put it up on the rack. Looking around with a flashlight, he couldn't see any other source for the oil. He explained the integrated washer on the plug was the problem, and basically all I needed was a proper crush washer for the drain plug bolt. He drained the oil, cut off the crappy washer, put the new crush washer on, and refilled the oil. He also cleaned up the gunk and stuff that had been collecting on my engine since I last cleaned it the whole while. He topped off my oil, sold me a few extra washers to last me down the road, and charged me for a half hour of labor. It's been a few days and still no oil seeping from my pan. The shop is immaculate, and Steve's tool drawers are meticulously organized. If I ever have any need for work on my car in the future, I will be making the trip here. read more

Autobahn Autowerkz - ... Plus now my car looks cooler - Auto Repair Near Me - Seatac, Washington

I had a seemingly major oil leak that popped up and expected to pay an arm and a leg. The guys were totally cool, let me leave my car a few extra days to make it convenient for me, and were totally honest when they found out that it was a super cheap part. They fixed the part for next to nothing and recommended I bleed the brakes which made a huge difference but I hadn't even noticed was a problem until I saw the difference when I got the car back. They also cleaned out my sunroof drains to stop a leak. They definitely earned my business from now on and I hope to have continued positive interactions. read more

I just can't say enough Good things about Steve at Autobahn Autowerkz!!! My 2005 VW Passat has her own special set of issues and Steve has worked on my car and it now drives better than ever! I am very confident in referring everyone to Steve and will always be taking my current VW and any future VW or Audi I may own. Thanks Steve, you are a RockStar! read more

Awesome place. Setup an appointment for my girlfriend here to assess some issues with her 2007 Volkswagon. There was an almost two week wait to bring her car in which is not much of a complaint but a possible issue for someone with need for urgent repair. Rather than encourage repairs that could cost more than the value of the vehicle (200k miles / bad chassis) Steve recommended fixing the starting issue, some faulty lights, and the hanging bumper. The car has delayed shifting but dealing with this rather than doing a transmission overhaul was the advice Steve gave. All was fixed without issue and at a more than amazing price. (I really feel like the labor rate should be higher) Anyways, being from out of state and working intensively in the automotive performance & repair industry, I know a couple of bad things to look for with a shop(I don't mean to sound like an ass in saying this!). I took a chance with Autobahn Autowerkz and was impressed. If I'm still in WA when my Volvo is out of warranty, I will definitely be bringing it here. P.S - I hope business keeps up and these guys are able to move to a bigger shop space! Having to make an appointment is simply because people know they do an awesome job here ! read more

Steve, the owner, is absolutely amazing. Such a great, honest human! We took an old Jetta we bought for our 17 y/o daughter which need a ton of work. He help me sort out 3 different tiers of work that should be done. He was not pushy/salesman at all, he knew I did not want to put more money into this car than the actual value of the car. When the repairs where complete, he explains everything that was done & shows you the old parts! I feel safe & confident with he work. He is NEVER taking advantage of you- truly helping you make the best, financial and safe decisions on your car. Thank you Steve & team! We greatly appreciate you! read more

Steve came highly recommended from a car group I belonged to. Super happy with my experience. Great follow up, service and smooth install of my catback exhaust for my Audi C7 S6 all for a very reasonable price (saved $400 over the stealer). I'm a happy customer and will be back for any Audi needs in the future! read more

Autobahn Autowerkz - Auto Repair Near Me - Seatac, Washington

I called Steve on a recommendation from a fellow Audi enthusiast and was very pleasantly surprised with the experience. He installed an exhaust system for me within the quoted amount of hours even though he had to spend a bit of extra time finishing the job. I typically do my own work when time/skill permits, and have a good idea when I am being bamboozled. Steve is a stand up guy that won't b.s. you like some shops may. It is hard to find a trustworthy mechanic; especially one that does good work and is so personable. I have no doubt that he will definitely beat any stealership's quote. Give him a call. You won't be disappointed! read more

Nothing but good things to say about Steve and the way he does business. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable, but he was very helpful in relaying the information at hand. He gave us a thorough diagnosis of the work that needed to be done and then organized it so we could see what was most important/what it would cost. Steve is honest and cares about what he does which is exactly why we will be using him from now on! read more

Steve is great. I took my A4 in, and they were able to get all of the work needed way quicker than I expected. Steve also gave me great recommendations when it came to what was needed to be taken care of now, and what could wait for another time. I've never had a mechanic be so honest about details. Definitely bring my car back to them. Thank you!!!! read more

This place is great! I originally found this place on Yelp and so happy I did! Steve is so kind and knowledgeable and gives you a great diagnostic without being pushy. I started with a simple oil change to check this place out, it was great and I went back a few months later to replace my battery (2012 A4). This is my go-to now! read more

Finally found my shop! Steve is always straight up and honest with extremely fair pricing. You can tell within seconds of talking to him that he really knows his stuff. He squeezed me in today when I just stopped by to schedule with him. He diagnosed a pretty difficult situation and had my car back to me in about an hour. DO NOT GO TO THE DEALER WITHOUT GOING HERE FIRST! read more

Steven fit my Audi Avant in quick and got me fixed up. Highly recommended! Go see them today!

When I first bought my Audi A4, I brought it straight to Steve at Autobahn Autowerkz. I knew that he would give it a thorough look over and provide any insight of future problems. And he did just that. At that initial inspection, I was told that my passenger side intercooler was cracked. Got it fixed, no problem after. I appreciate the way he approaches the issues your car has. I cannot say enough good things about him and the business model he runs. If you have an Audi or Volkswagen, I highly suggest giving Steve a call. read more

Excellent service. Professional in everyway. So knowledgeable which means less time wasted. Very affordable. Our Audi USED to be a problem. Not since Autobauhn Autowerkz worked on it. Highly recommended to Any Audi owner. read more

After going to chain mechanics for little things and outlandish quotes for big things, I finally checked out Autobahn Autowerkz and have dubbed them responsibility of keeping my car running ever since. He works fast, knowledgeable, takes time to explain how things work, more than reasonable pricing on labor...and parts are parts, but he's upfront. Good dude. So, you always know what you're getting. read more

Alternator puked on way back to Portland, stranded near airport, gave Steve a call after trying 2 other places. Great listener on the phone as I explained my situation, rare these days. Wrecker got it over there, he fixed what was needed, discussed a few immediate needs on my 250K-mile A4, and explained critical things to fix and those that could wait. Another rarity. Fair price, went above & beyond service-wise. I may consider planning my work schedule to drive from Portland to get some things done. That good, that honest. The kind of place you hang on to and appreciate. Thanks again Steve! read more

Steve and the rest of the crew at Autobahn Autowerkz is an awesome find. Even though there are a ton of things my A4 could get fixed Steve listened carefully, understood my goals, and then did only made sense. Then he provided great feedback about what I should consider next without being pushy or alarming. Solid shop, solid crew, trustworthy service, and at the right price. I highly recommend them and will definitely get my future work done there. read more

I got a hold of Steve the day of for quick oil change, break flush, and filters. Really cool guy, got me in and out at a very reasonable price. I'll be stopping by next time for sure! Thanks man read more
