Been my go-to shop for almost a decade! The staff is excellent at helping me keep the car in top shape and helping me schedule out bigger jobs/goals. Thank you read more

Update 2/12/2025: Yes, you can do overnight or after-hours drop off. I work during the regular work hours through the week so for those that are in town and too busy to drop off, you can do an overnight/after-hours drop off! Of course, you still need to pay and pickup during regular hours, so keep this in mind. Replacing front struts (I provided struts, no warranty!) cost me $850 in labor and extra parts. My struts were leaking and I wanted an OEM strut back on, these guys did it in about half a day. Struts can easily be a 1-2 job, forgetting extra parts and having to do everything over if you're can't do em. Remember you're paying for time, experience, and warranty. I'll say it again, these guys are worth the price for quality service and work. Original: The guys at BME took care of me and gave me reassurance that the car is still good to go. Took my BMW Z3 and it's good to have a shop that will take care of the work that I can't do. They are worth the cost, took care of my safety when I totally forgot about it and gave me reccs based on what i wanted to do with the car. read more

Bavarian Motor Experts - Reception area - Auto Repair Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The service is utmost at this place. (Unfortunately) Tried cutting corners and went to a local oil change place who couldn't reset my service notifications. They said no problem and to come in whenever and they'll do it for free. That small gesture definitely got me as a customer for all my future services. Thank you BME and looking forward to seeing you guys again! read more

These guys truly are the best. Have been coming here for a few years and every experience has been great. It's nice to have a mechanic shop you can trust! read more

Asked if they could replace the hydraulic unit for the rear wing on my Porsche turbo S and they weren't even interested in looking at it.

I know service should be scheduled but I called day of and these guys were able to squeeze me in. They were very informative and thorough. I'm happy with the service and will be returning. I had my oil change done on my BMW, here and I'm glad I found this place. Price is a little more than I wanted to pay but it's not too bad, especially for the service provided. It's worth it. read more

- high standards - good workmanship - solid and warranted reputation for same - very helpful and informative read more

This was my first time here. Went to take my daughter's car for oil change and break fluid flush and fill. Awesome customer service with friendly and helpful employees!! My car was done fast!! The property is very clean and secure. The waiting area is really nice too with all the windows looking out to the street. I was very impressed! Definitely becoming a loyal customer here. read more

I have been a BME customer since it opened many, many years ago. It is excellent in every way. BMWs are a focus. BMWs are sophisticated cars. Not everyone can service them. BME can. The mechanics are excellent. Their philosophy is that the care of your car is their responsibility. And they mean it. The pricing is fair, particularly given the quality of the work, and, critically, the sense of responsibility they take for your car. They are very easy to work with and really nice people as well. read more

Bavarian motor experts is AWESOME!! Fast, friendly service that is fairly priced. SO MUCH BETTER THAN GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP!! They have a customer for life with me. read more

Leif and the crew provided excellent service at.a fair price. I would recommend them to a friend

Very helpful and accommodating staff. Good mechanic. Everything done perfectly. Thank you gentlemen.

Bavarian Motor has been taking care of my Mini for a couple of years now and they have always gone beyond what I would receive from other auto service centers. On this recent drop-off, I had my brakes serviced and I am very happy with their information and attentiveness. They are a company that I can trust! Mahalo Bavarian Motor Experts for your care of my Mini. read more

I got an old BMW and this is the only place I would ever take it. The work is always good and I don't feel taken.

Well! They Only specialize in high end sporty cars and not your common every day run of the mill cheap cars? lol! But if I had a Lambo G. I would Surely take it to them and Trust them with the service of it as they Really Do know their Richy Rich cars. And they Do have Great Professional Auto Integrity! Thank you! read more

We started with trying to find out a battery issue in addition to needed overdue maintenance They were sensationally accommodating and even scheduled repairs around our pay dates. It took months but we finally drove home in it today. Mahalo Rick ,Laydon , and all the mechanics. Highly recommend 5 stars read more

Bavarian Motor Experts - It drove back steady but needs to return for the parts ordered to be replaced. - Auto Repair Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Very knowledgeable, professional, and prompt. I will be bringing my bimmer there again.

We've been going to the dealership for over 20 years to service our cars, but the customer service and experience has become so poor, we decided to look for other options. Rick and the team at BME did a great job - they are communicative, responsive to questions, proactive in providing solutions, and are fairly priced. At the dealership, I used to see the same service advisor for many years - it felt like he took care of us and our vehicles. It is nowhere near that today. Rick and BME bring a personalized aspect to their service which is no longer exists at the dealership. read more

Best BMW repair and service in town! Call Rick or use the online form for an honest estimate. Quality, efficient and friendly service, I wouldn't trust my BMW with anyone else. Get 10% off labor with a Yelp check-in or military ID. Best place for your BMW, Mini, Mercedes or Porsche! read more

Came to get a reoccurring check engine light assessed after having spark plugs, valve cover, water pump, MAF sensor, smoke test, and more done at a different mechanic. BME did extensive testing on my MINI Cooper S Countryman 2012 and provided me with updates throughout the process. I ultimately took my car back before they could get to the bottom of the issue, as after all the diagnostics they did, they explained it may have been due to a faulty DME which is very expensive to replace. I was told they spent 7 hours working to figure out the problem and they were extremely kind to charge me for only a fraction of the labor. I will come back next time. read more

Awesome is all I have to say!! Did my "A" service on my 2021 GLA 250. Great customer service!! Yes they have all the equipment to do the required services and yes reset the maintenance indicator. My new go to shop. Highly recommend!! read more

Just traded my car for BMW, and was looking for a place for service. A good friend of mine recommended this place over the dealership. Now that I experienced this place I see why. I called this place to schedule an appointment, and with ease to do. I pulled to this place in front of the red cone area to drop off my car. They worked in my car, and did great job. I will bring my car here for normal maintenance check service intervals instead of the dealership. There Ate reasonably priced, and fair. Why go to a fancy dealership, when your going in for service intervals. They do have the fancy show rooms and nice waiting area, but I why pay for something you don't need. read more

Extremely reasonable pricing for German car service. First time I went was for a bmw oil change. Oil and filter was in the $160 price range. Quick and easy. The second time, I was having a few issues with my car and took it in for multiple things. Was concerned it was going to cost multiple thousands... the guys there are so nice and called me with a price estimate the same day. They had to order parts (some from the dealer, some not) and were still able to get my car back to me within 5 days. For reference, I had work done on the convertible top because it was out of alignment due to a broken piece, suspension bushings, and drain holes for a water sloshing sound. My total was around $1600. Very honest and trustworthy business. read more

What does "BMW" stand for?* Unexpected car repairs, especially during the holidays, is no fun at all. If the anxiety from not knowing how much the repairs will set you back is not enough, the uncertainty of getting an appointment is sure to send you into stress eating mode. Worry not. BME Hawaii is here to provide an elevated experience. My car issue arose over the weekend preceding Thanksgiving and my usual go-to BMW specialist was booked solid for over two weeks. I needed my car back before then in order to avoid public transportation and ride sharing to minimize my exposure to the viral invaders. I sent an e-mail to BME inquiring about their availability and was pleasantly surprised to receive a response on Monday morning a little before their business hours. Shortly thereafter, I brought my car in and met with Rick. His clear communication and prompt updates kept me informed throughout the experience. No guess work. This experience has led me to seriously consider taking my BMW in to BME for servicing and future repairs. The 10% Yelp promotion was a very nice bonus to have, especially with the cost of routine repairs for BMWs. *BMW = Bring Mom's Wallet read more

I came here to say if you can shit Cash and take shit talk then this is the place for you. But If you work hard for the money you make and wanted to be respected avoid this place. I came here for a simple ( bmw ) fix for my exhaust and radiator and I was told I had to pay 6k before they actually pooped the hood. I drove 10 ft away and a nearby shop had given me a temporary fix for my exhaust for free. The owner was so disrespectful about the car and me that I already knew what I was dealing with. I wouldn't bother coming to this place . If you come by to change a light bulb he'll probably charge you to replace the transmission. -*-The owner might respond to this review because I gave him one star but there is nothing false with the statement I said read more

My car had been leaking coolant and oil for a while. It overheated, and they were able to look at it when I brought it in the next day. They checked everything out and did a great job replacing the radiator, hoses, cause of the oil leak, window regulator, etc. They checked everything over and advised on a couple of other possible repairs it might need. It wasn't cheap (normal for any BMW), but I got it back a day and a half later. Layden was super friendly, corteous, and helpful. Great job! Thanks! read more

Got me in quickly and got the work done fast! The timing alone is worth giving them a shot over BMW dealership. Will recommend to all other bimmers out there read more

Brought my older BMW in for a checkup and some work and they gave up after a stripped oil pan drain plug..basic. All the manager Rick did was rag on my car. Total jerk They actually put this plug back in and let me drive home. Parked car for the day and the next morning my carport was covered in oil. read more

Bavarian Motor Experts - This is what they left in there as a drain plug. I parked the car and the next morning there were at least 4 qts. of oil on the concrete. - Auto Repair Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Can I give these guys 10 stars? I've been coming here for years and I totally forgot to give them a 5 star review prior. But this past week, my water pump went out and they immediately called me back and told me to bring the car down and they did it for free. Thx! read more

BME has my trust and business for maintenance on my 2014 Mini. Price of service was 1/3 less than Mini. Customer service at BME was friendly. After two less than excellent experiences at Mini and BMW I visited BME. BME is everything I was hoping for. I will be returning for all future maintenance on my car. Thanks BME. read more

Routine service of my Mini Cooper. Their shop is clean and sitting area is very nice. Courteous and Professional. They even clean your car exterior . Prices are good,and I feel fair with transparency on what is needed Shout out to Layden in Service Office. Roland the mechanic. I highly recommend. Thanks read more

Excellent customer service! Took our X3 for service after our maintenance contract expired with the dealer. They received the car early and completed the maintenance and even addressed a couple of worn items all on time. They communicated extremely well even with informing me of the additional unexpectedly worn items. Appreciate the great service. read more

They were very upfront and honest with their suggestions for my Mercedes C230. They let me know the different options available and the cost, as well as letting me know what could wait to be fixed. I appreciated their honesty. read more

I didn't even get to first base with this shop. Called Rick for an estimate and an awkward conversation ended up being creepy. After entering in my car's info and describing the work I needed done, Rick told me replacing the rear air shocks in my Mercedes is a "Nasty Job" Although not easy, it's actually fairly simple job that can be done in 4 hours by a qualified mechanic. I've seen it done on YouTube. I would do it myself, if I had the means to. I already had a few estimates from other shops and Rick quoted a sky high estimate, even though I was supplying my own parts. I asked what the hourly rate was and how many hours they were estimating. He averted the question by saying "This is the number you need." Really??? What a creep! I can't stand peeple who aren't straight forward and honest with their business. read more

First time tried this place for my Porsche annual maintenance service. Easy to schedule appointment. Very nice staff and service. Good price read more

I had a great experience getting my M3 serviced at BME. They completed service within time estimate and price estimate. Staff was friendly and helpful read more

Took my 528i Sedan in for oil and filter replacement and was a reasonable price!Honest and informative team!Detailed explanation of service and needed service in the future.Highly recommended and reliable service! read more

Had extensive front suspension repair and replacement. Had transmission serviced requiring removal of transmission, parts replacement and reverse clutches replaced. Rick took the time to keep me informed, and even put the car on the lift when I picked it up to show me all the work done to the car from the differential to the front suspension. It's a 31 year old car and it is very difficult now a days to find a place that can work on it and that actually cares! read more

Bavarian Motor Experts - 1990 Mercedes Benz 560sec - Auto Repair Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Affordable, quick, and excellent customer service. Went in for an oil change here rather than the dealership because someone actually left me a business card snugged into my car's door jam when i was at ala moana. I went online and checked out their website and what really caught my attention is that they pride themselves in using authenthic BMW parts and specializes on working on European vehicles. I spent less than half the amount of what I use to pay at the dealership and the only difference is that you don't get a courtesy car and they don't have a waiting room. read more
