This week I took in my 2009 Mercedes Benz CLS550 due to a suspension issue. Alex diagnosed it as a failed right front air shock strut. There was a slight delay in getting the replacement because none were available locally. I used the time to my advantage to having them service my car. I picked up my car this morning and am very pleased with the results. Over the past ten years J have had owner Peter maintain two of my Range Rovers, and now they will maintain my Mercedes Benz! read more

British & German Autoworks - My immaculate CLS. - Auto Repair Near Me - San Diego, California

Driving back from San Diego my VW GTI started to make a high pitched screeching sound. I yelped up the closest mechanic, and came up with British & German Autoworks. Called to see if I could drop by, and they took me in near closing time. They quickly diagnosed the problem and had my car fixed by the next day. Updates were communicated in a timely manner, and everyone was super nice and professional! Would highly recommend! read more

Amaziing!!!!! Timely and efficient, as the owner of a vintage (old) Jaguar and a woman I am always fearful of getting gouged. I have never had that feeling here, and everyone is super nice too!!!! I have already referred another Jaguar owner to them......and I have no doubt they will feel the same way. read more

If a finger can remove dust. What keeps an object capable of penetrating clear coat, paint, primer, and metal. From removing dust. ? You cannot say from simply viewing these photos that there is "dust over the scratch" the particles that you see at the edge of scratch are displaced materials as listed above. I again reinforce the complete lack of accountability by this establishment. Future customers may way to take photos of their vehicles before risking service. Once again, the finger was ran over the scratch to show the employee that this was not a simple smudge. The presence of dust makes no sense unless you can prove that there is dust on the obviously fresh metal gouge. The employee took no photos for documentation while I was on site and immediately identified this when my vehicle was pulled out for me. (See business sign above my car). The only guidance from the employee upon this discovery was " we will have to wait until Monday to see the parking lot footage" There is zero expectation of reimbursement by this business judging by the interactions. My only hope is that this serves as a warning to potential future customers. read more

So my beloved 2006 LR3 Landrover HSE is 18 years young; her name is Olive. She has over 295,000 miles to date and has seen better days. When Olive starts to show her age, a quick call to British & German Autoworks (BGA) seems to be just the remedy. With high mileage older cars, sometimes it is hard to dial down what exactly a fault code could be. With their analytical approach and vast experience, the crew at BGA gets your diagnosis and options out quickly and back out on the road. Fair, honest, diligent, and trustworthy all come to mind. Do your self a favor and give them a try!!! read more

Outstanding service. Made an appointment with John for service for my 2021 Defender and was in and out in the stated time. Highly qualified and knowledgeable personnel and vehicle was in perfect order upon retrieval. This is an excellent choice for services for all our Land Rover vehicles, no upselling, quality work, careful inspection of all items, suggestions for future service, even photos taken of the tires to show wear and a slight scuffing that will need attention in the future with a rotate and balance. Very reasonable pricing for the high quality work as well. Taking 2021 Defender #2 back on Wednesday for it's 4 year checkup and service. British and German Autoworks is what dealers should have been, but are not. Thanks, John for the great experience. read more

We took our 2017 Range Rover to British Auto works based upon all the positive feedback for an oil and filter change. Diego recommended a firmware update as well. We paid them approximately 300 dollars for the service and drive away happy. One week later I noticed oil on my garage floor. Because the care is under warranty we took it to the dealer. The dealer found the source of the leak immediately, British Auto incorrectly installed the new filter which caused a lead and cover the motor with oil. In addition the firmware update was also incorrect and needed to be re done. $375 to Range Rover dealer plus a rental car for a week. Called British auto and owner said "sorry sometimes these things happen" no offer to refund or make things right in any way. STAY AWAY -IF THEY CANT PERFORM A SIMPLE OIL CHANGE I SURE WOULD NOT TRUST THEM DO DO ANYTHING EL Total liar. Your technology update was an old version and required dealer to fix. Additionally you did not stand behind your service you told me "sometimes things happen" lastly the O ring nor any oil leaks when I brought it to you. You failed to install the filter correctly. YOU ARE A CROOK. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE read more

Brought in my 2011 RR HSE for brake repair. There was a 'human error' while making the repair which caused some minor inconvenience as the car needed to be returned, but the garage owned up, fixed it at no cost and performed an additional complimentary service so that I walked away happy with the experience. The team is trustworthy, professional and thorough and I would come back here again. read more

my daughters brakes have been squealing for months. She has any Evoke Range rover 2018. They were extremely thorough and told me that replacing the brakes and rotor was truly optional that the brakes were fine. We did elect to replace the brakes and rotors no more squealing and my daughter says that the brakes are much smoother now as they used to be quite jerky and touchy, I really appreciated the honesty and thoroughness of the work read more

So happy I made the call and spoke with Diego. Local dealer was busy and Diego took care of us quickly. We will be taking our Velar here for regular maintenance. read more

My LR3 needed special attention after several years of getting worked on by a small town shop. The excellent B&G Autoworks experience begins as soon as you walk through the front door and speak with John. Everyone is knowledgable on import vehicles, do FAST work, and make great recommendations based on their experience. I feel the price was phenomenal for the work I had done. Could not recommend more. Thank you, B&G Autowirks. read more

I can always trust British Autoworks to maintain my Range Rover. My oil changes are always done promptly. I had an odd issue that was causing my engine to rev to 5,000 rpms. British Autoworks diagnosed and fixed it at a reasonable cost - much better than walking out the dealership each time with a hefty bill. read more

Good group Peter is great good service and great communication through the entire process of fixing my LR4

I have always taken my Land Rover to the dealership for regular service and maintenance. I was due for brakes and the dealership quoted me $2500. I had a friend refer me to British Autoworks. They gave me a much better price and and the service was amazing. I will continue to bring my Land Rover here for any repairs. read more

It's been almost a year since Peter fixed my LR3. I was getting a low voltage reading on my BANK 2 sensor and had already tried replacing the O2 sensor. Peter diagnosed the problem correctly and realized the ECU was not sending a ground signal to the sensor. A regular shop would say 'You need a new ECU'. A stand up mechanic like Peter would say 'You might need a new ECU, but let's try something first' He rewired the sensor to the contralateral port on the ECU and voila no CEL! He said this might be only a temporary fix but after 1 year and 15K miles still no CEL. Thanks Peter. I was this close to selling my LR3. I live in eastlake and will drive all the way to RB to have my car serviced here. read more

First off I'll say this is my first review ever. If you have the chance to do business with these guys know that you are working with the best people. Diego and Peter are class act good people. -- I've had work done on my Rover and recently Mercedes.. Peter specifically went out of his way to research the issue with my car finding out it was covered by manufacture... even though it was out of warranty. Instead of grabbing the business himself, he put me and my family first and helped direct me to the dealer with exactly what to say... I saved 3k+ and I want ppl to know that these people are worth doing business with. Thank you Peter and Diego. - Scott A read more

Finding an honest mechanic is difficult. We are very fortunate to have found Peter with British Autoworks. The times we have had our LR3 in the shop he has treated us fairly, given us honest advice, and done great work. He is very knowledgeable about all the Land Rover models. He never tries to upsell us on maintenance or service. When he recommends something he clearly outlines all the pros and cons of each option so that we may make an informed decision. No one else will touch our Land Rover. read more

Took my LR4 to Peter yesterday, and could not be happier. Peter not only completed the Suspension re-calibration for us, but also helped us with a seat we were having issues with. Peter is friendly, knowledgeable and thorough. It was easy to make the appointment, and service was quick. I own a Land Rover, so the fact of the matter is I need a reliable mechanic. British Autoworks is going to be my go-to for regular maintenance and specialty work.... read more

Lost the key to our Land Rover, and dealer quotes one at about $500. These professionals were able to get us a new working key for less than half of that, and I was in and out within an hour or so. read more

If you own a Range Rover, you probably already know that you'll need a good, affordable mechanic on speed dial. If you're still taking your rig to the dealership, you either love spending money, or haven't found a good Rover specialist. If the latter is your problem, then look no further. Peter specializes in Range Rover and makes owning these mobile money pits much more approachable. Oil changes and service at about 1/4 of the price of the dealership. read more

I've brought both of my Range Rover Sports (2006, 2014) in for repair and maintenance. I used to take them to the SD Land Rover dealership off Mira Mar. but thank god I found this place. Better service, better pricing, better convenience. Just better!! I highly recommend British Autoworks! They always deliver, and get things done right and in a very timely manor. Thanks Peter!! read more

Great work adding towing capacity for my Range Rover! Went out of their way to help me to understand the ins and outs of towing a travel trailer. Great service! read more

I can't say enough about British Autoworks. Peter and Diego are over the top when it comes to customer service. The engine blew up in my Range Rover (only 60k miles on it) and the warranty refused to cover it! After being quoted $47k by Land Rover, I decided to shop around. I'm so glad I was referred to British Autoworks. They replaced my engine at a FRACTION of the cost. They did it quickly and without any hidden costs. When my car was returned to me, it had even been detailed inside and out! I will never take my Range Rover anywhere else. They are fair, honest and make sure you leave as a happy customer. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. read more

Diego is a very knowledgeable, honest mechanic! I'd definitely recommend this shop to my family and friends.
