I brought mine 2015 Passat here when the dealer said there were no more DSD transmissions for sale anywhere in the world. Four other vw shops refuse to work on it. They fixed it for 1/3 the dealer cost. Every time I go there they do things right and for a reasonable price. read more

I found Michael to be the most honest business man who knows how to fix Volkswagens. It's my second Volkswagen he is working on. The dealership wasn't as honest as Michael. read more

AZ AutoBahn has great service, Technicians are very professional and knowledgeable. I've been a customer for a few years now and every time they have serviced my 99 VW Beetle, today was a battery swap out, the service was handled promptly and completed to the highest standards. Every reason to recommend. read more

HONEST! He found an issue that was covered under the Dieselgate VW warranty, and sent me to the dealership, where Camelback VW completely screwed me over, erased the codes, and claimed nothing was wrong. I ONLY TRUST THIS SHOP. No one else will touch my baby. (Jetta TDI manual sedan). If you love your car, take her here. read more

Great service. Awesome staff. Brought my older Audi A3 TDI in and my baby got great care. Very happy we found this place!

Honest quality work at an affordable price. I bring my Mk7.5 GTI here for things I don't want to do myself and don't want to pay the dealer service prices for. read more

I normally do all maintenance and repairs on my 2017 Audi A4, but anything that is too big of a job or puts me out of my comfort zone, I take it to Michael and his team at Autobanh Motorwerks. They are very knowledgeable and have great customer service. Their rate is very competitive to the dealer rates, and I'd rather support an independent shop like this. read more

Great service. Took the car in one day and got it back running like new on day 2. Price was very reasonable and their professionalism shined through. I took my girlfriend's VW Jetta there because they focus on German engineered cars. This will be our go to shop for future maintenence and repairs read more

Top notch Audi and VW specialists. Serviced our 2007 Audi A4 after a general check over and recommended service. No upsell at all, simply good experience in sound preventative maintenance for these high perf. machines. These guys know these cars!! Very reasonable prices vs. the dealer. read more

The real challenge is finding the place (drive slowly down Cheryl, it's tucked away). But if you have a VW, these guys are the best in town. They're honest, fast, and they know German cars. I had a bum regulator on my window, and they fixed it in three hours for a very reasonable price and as a bonus turned off my tire indicator without me even mentioning it. Not only that, they're super friendly and easy to deal with. Highly, highly recommended. read more

Very honest mechanic! Treats his customers like a good family friend and tries to help the best he can. Honest about the condition of the car and gives a fair price. read more

My final bill at Autobahn was 50% LESS for the EXACT same work the Audi dealer was going to $$$$ charge me. Yup, 50%!!! When I mentioned to Michael that I was thinking about selling my car in the Fall, he took the time to explain things to me so that I understood what work needed to be done and the things I could hold off on doing. Michael and his business partner chose to be honest and charge a fair price. A HUGE thank you to all the other Yelpers who gave Michael and his top notch technicians 5-stars. Without your reviews, I wouldn't have even considered going anywhere else for service other than the place where I bought my car. read more

I want to thank Michael for taking me in when they were technically supposed to be closed, the day before New Year's Eve. The ignition lock in my Jetta was shot and I couldn't turn my key and to start the car. I called and was able to get it fixed, same day! I am so glad I took it to Autobahn and not the dealership. The guys there were friendly and didn't try to overcharge or sell me on extra repairs, being that I'm a young female. I very much appreciate that, and will 100% be bringing my Jetta back in the future. Thanks again, Michael! read more

Amazing!!! I went back again to get my oil pan replaced as my friend hit something and cracked it :/ I also had them do a transmission flush :) I had it towed in on a Friday 30 mins before closing, it was ready Tuesday in the morning :) They fix things right! They are honest!! Great prices I will never ever ever go anywhere else or allow anyone else to work on my car besides these guys. Wilfred the bug thanks you guys :) read more

Instead of letting me know there was a recall for the emissions with Volkswagen. The man on the phone told me to bring it in and the job would cost me $650. This is before he looked at it. If they can't or won't take the time to at the very least have the decency to research my issue first, just seems to me this pandemic has made them thirsty for business. read more

This shop is very responsible, reliable, and a good value for the work they perform. It was easy making an appointment and car my car was complete by the end of the day as promised. Just be careful not to go by it too fast. It's a bit on the tricky side to find it because it's tucked away in the back. Talk to Michael when you schedule. read more

Best place in all of Phoenix to bring a VW or AUDI. Hands down no one else compares. Point blank period. Love these guys and they show love back with fixing your car the way it should be fixed and the way it should be fixed. read more

Called up to ask a question about getting a service repair done. The lady that answered the phone yawned when I began to speak. No problem...but after I asked the question she was extremely short with me, and came across as if I interrupted her nap or that I was bothering her by calling. Having a business of my own, I would never have an employee answering phones with this type of customer service habits. I take this as a reflection of the business. If the customer service is this way, I can only imagine how the rest of the shop functions. read more

Unfortunately, my last visit was so disappointing I am lowering my rating from 5 stars to 3 stars. Per Audi's maintenance schedule, the 115,000 service on my Audi Q5 TDI includes a refill of Ad Blue diesel emissions fluid. In each of the four prior 10,000 mile maintenance services provided by Autobahn Motorwerks, the Ad Blue refill was included. This time, it was not. I did not realize this until 12 days/450 miles after service when my Ad Blue Refill notification appeared on my MID. When I returned to the shop, I was told Ad Blue service was every 20,000 miles per the Mitchell maintenance schedule they use. They said they do not use the Audi maintenance schedule. This contradicts what I was first told when I started taking my car here nearly four years ago. At that time, I was told they perform the same scheduled maintenance that the dealer does. Regardless, their comment that the Ad Blue refill is every 20,000 contradicts the service they performed previously. I tried to show the Audi maintenance schedule that I brought up on my phone, but there was no interest by the shop in looking at it. Upon further questioning, I also learned they did not check the battery, despite Audi's maintenance schedule stating this should be done as well. This experience makes me wonder what other shortcuts were taken. I still give them three stars for the great service I was previously provided and low costs. They do seem to do good work. If I go back, I will have to make sure they follow the Audi schedule so my car can remain at tip top shape and the remaining emissions warranty does not get jeopardized. read more

I am very happy with the service I received from Autostaat, especially from Michael who is the owner of this fine establishment. I own a 2000 Audi S4 since 2002 and I've been deciding whether if it's worth keeping or not. I've had a handful of problems in the past, the S4 and I have a love and hate relationship. Before discovering Autostaat, I took the S4 to a previous euro repair shop. Long story short, I wasn't impressed with their service and what their estimates were, I might as well have taken my car to a dealership. What I should do is actually thank them, the situation forced me to search elsewhere on Yelp and I found Autostaat. I called and spoke with Michael over the phone and we began to exchange emails of what the S4 needed. I provided Michael with the document of the parts and labor estimates (via email), that the previous euro repair shop had documented (fully inspected). The next day he sent me an email with his labor estimates and I was impressed. I showed Michael what I was purchasing from an OEM/Performance German parts website. He confirmed the parts that I was planning to purchase and I finalized the order. I received my parts and scheduled a time to drop my car off to him. I work the daily grind hours from Monday through Fridays, so I asked if I can drop my car off on a Sunday morning. He met with me as scheduled at his shop (which I really appreciated) and he discussed the process of the installation and repair. Michael called me and informed me both Monday and Tuesday what he encountered, without me calling him with a status. He had my car for about two days and by Wednesday, Michael contacted me to let me know that my S4 was ready. I dropped by that evening and he explained in detail what he went through to repair my S4. He took the time to answer all the questions I had of my car and he was very patient with me. I definitely received a lot of insight from him and I respect what he and his shop are all about. Overall, the service, communication, and costs were the best I've ever received from a euro repair shop, since I've owned my S4. If you own a European vehicle and you've been searching for a reliable mechanic in the Glendale area, look no further because Autostaat is there to meet your needs. read more

I just bought a used 2013 VW Passat. It needed the 120k service. The VW dealer quoted double what Autobahn charged! I am so happy we found a reasonable, honest VW specialist. I depend on reviews when finding a new business, so I had to share my experience. So glad I found them read more

I have been taking my car here to Michael for about 3 years now. I completely trust Michael and his business. He has always been fair and always goes above and beyond the call of duty. He does amazing work at an affordable price. Thank you guys!! You have saved me thousands of dollars!! - I live in Chandler now... and i still take my car to this shop! read more

New to area! Had problem with my TTS and dropped in. Took care of issue as I waited. These guys know their stuff!!

Was looking for a less expensive option to the dealer prices on my 80k maintenance for my GTI. I came across this shop since it was nearby and quoted me hundreds of dollars less. Not only was the service cheaper, but it was fast-like done within 2-3 hours fast. The techs were also great. Derek was super personable and took the time to explain everything to me, even giving me advice on not servicing something, when he could have just as easily said "sure" and took my money for something I didn't need. I would happily return here for any future VW service I need. These guys rock and made me feel 100% confident that they were performing honest work, which I know is always a huge concern for car owners when shopping around for service. read more

Great VW Dealer Service Alternative " I have been going to Autobahn for a couple of years. They do an excellent job. They are reliable, honest and charge a fair price. Personalized service you just won't get a dealer. Highly recommended! read more

Awesome shop - highly recommend! I took my 2009 GTI in for a minor repair. The techs were knowledgeable and friendly. I appreciated the tour of the shop. I'll definitely bring my VWs back here for future service! read more

Disappointing experience. As an oblivious car owner, had turbo charger replaced for initially 2100$, jumping to 2400$, did not really ask for tune but was not clarified well enough about options either. Never physically shown problem with car. Bad communication, lack of organization. Did not receive loner car as advertised on web site. Attempting to bring car to shop first was first diverted and told Mondays where only for makeup work. Had to return car several times with more problems. Overall lack of respect. Shop was referred by my initial mechanic. Will never return. I'm a U.S. Navy veteran. If you have questions feel free to e-mail me. Winston.Brown25@yahoo.com read more

Autobahn went above and beyond! Autobahn is thousands less money and thousand times more honest than the Audi dealerships. I have never trusted my A6 Supercharged Sport Edition to anyone other than Audi until I went to this shop. Now I'm embarrassed to say I didn't discover them sooner. They don't have loaner cars, but who cares when they did my repairs for $1200 instead of the $6400 Audi had quoted. They get my highest possible review and recommendation!!! Debbie Cave Creek, AZ read more

Great guys they installed my 034 control arms on my audi for a great price. car feels so much better on the road, also showed me the old parts with great explanations on why they were duds. thanks for the great customer service! read more

Helped me get my VW GTI back on the road in a hurry. They did a great job explaining my options for replacing the clutch. They got the job done ahead of schedule and for a reasonable price. I would highly recommend Autobahn to anyone. read more

I took my VW EOS here because it had an oil leak. They fixed it at a reasonable price and took the time to explain the problem to me and gave me advice on things that are specific to my car. I will definitely be back for future maintenance needs as I feel they are honest, know what they are talking about, and don't overcharge. read more

Went out of their way to prevent a crisis! I was traveling through Phoenix on my way to the east coast when my VW developed an intermittent issue. These guys immediately went to work to figure out this tricky issue and get me back on the road by the next morning. Even followed up a couple of days later to make sure it was still behaving. I owe them much gratitude. Edit: The bill was very reasonable and they were awesome at effectively communicating with me about every aspect of the diagnosis and repair. read more

High integrity, knowledgable, solid work and great prices. I've had two repairs done by them on my 08 Jetta, vacuum pump replacement and gas tank replacement (due to an accident), both within the past few months. Because of my positive experience with them, they are now my go-to mechanic. I've worked with Derek, Michael and Chris there. Whenever I have questions, they take the time to thoroughly explain the work, which gives me pease of mind. All around, a great experience. I highly recommend them. read more

Thumbs up to Autostaat for having integrity and honesty!! The starter on my daughters car went out over the weekend and I had the car towed to Peoria VW. Peoria VW told me the starter needed to be replaced and recommended six other items to be repaired. TOTAL COST (without taxes included): $3760.00. I had the Rabbit towed to Autostaat and spoke with Mike about the condition of the Rabbit. Mike had his team look over the car and told me the starter and vacuum pump needed to be fixed. I told him to change the oil on top of repairing what had to be fixed. TOTAL COST: $719.73 out the door. My savings: $3040.27 Great shop that I will return to in the future. Thanks Autostaat German!!! read more

Autobahn Motorwerks should be a 5 Star rated shop. I was referred to Autobahn from a friend. I bought a vetta for my wife a couple years ago from a small dealer. This car is the definition of a lemon. This car has had major problems from day one. The first month we had the car the transmission went out. I took the car to five shops and Autobahn was the best price and did not try and sell me extras to make a buck. Micheal went out of his way to find me a used transmission and the repair was done fast with no issues. Next my motor ceased up. At the time i was living in Mesa so i had the car towed to two shops that both wanted to sell me a new or used engine for half of what the car was worth. Autobahn was the only shop that had the master technicians that could rebuild the motor. No other shop would touch it. Michael and his team took the car and had it back to me in 2 days. And the car runs Great. i have had the car in their shop a couple more times for small issues and i always get the best service. One of the best qualities that autobahn has is Honesty. Micheal will only take your car when he knows he has the time to work on it. A lot of shops will take your car and sit on it until they have time. Not Autobahn. I highly recommend this shop. i will never go to any other shop. Thanks Autobahn for caring for your customers and profession. KEEP IT UP!!! read more

I recently purchase my first Volkswagen Jetta TDI and I had lots of questions. The VW dealership service departments charge a fortune, so I decided on Autobahn MotorWerks as my son had taken his Jetta there two years ago - they were the ONLY ones who could diagnose and actually FIX the problem his car was having. I worked with Gary at the shop to get my DSG transmission fluid and filter serviced, he answered all of my questions I had about the vehicle. Very knowledgeable and patient, prices are very reasonable and I know they do great work. I think they live, eat and breathe Volkswagen and Audi. I highly recommend them. read more

Chris it's a very competent and meticulous mechanic and one of the few qualified to work on my Jeep Liberty diesel. I've had my vehicle at two other so called experts and have had issues after. Chris takes the time to do it right. Just bought a VW new Beetle and had Chris do the mechanical work. Running great. Highly recommended. read more

I was extremely impressed with the thoroughness and honesty of everyone at Autobahn Motorwerks. Michael was great to work with. I have a pre-owned 2011 Audi Q5 and this was its first service since purchased. I was on the fence of going to the dealership and paying an arm and a leg. Their prices were fair and I will continue to go to Autobahn for any future services:-) read more

Michael Benson and his staff of mechanics are absolutely the best. Michael has done a lot of work on my 1997 Ford Explorer - it has 230,000 mile on it. He put a rebuilt engine in it last fall. I had to have another repair recently to pass my inspection. The part I needed was on my old engine, which he stored in his shop. I ended up paying for less than an hour of labor and no cost for the part! Michael is honest, kind, and a man of true integrity. He will always be my mechanic. You'll be doing yourself a favor by taking you car, truck, or SUV to him for all of your repairs and service needs. read more

Chris tuned my TDI and it's amazing! I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner. Fast turn around, great price!
