Stay away if you have a BMW! I had my car service here to get my valve cover gasket replaced on my BMW 335i and it was a nightmare. My engine malfunction light turned on and never ran the same after they worked on it. Missing bolts, the mechanic lied to me after I found a torx bolt on the floor that was not put back! The mechanic does not very good English and I doubt has proper training to work on bmw or any car! I've asked for a invoice work order receipt and the owner refuses to give me one saying they do not provide it because I only had labor done. This is against BAR policy! This is a new owner and they do not specialize in bmw! They are clueless and will ruin your car! The owner sounds friendly but after he takes your money he will treat you different. I will report this shop to the bureau of automotive repair for what they did to my car! read more

They seem like cool guys at first, obviously very knowledgeable about bmw's, but MAKE SURE you get some type of INVOICE or WRITTEN GUARANTEE of repair if the SAME PROBLEM OCCURS, which I regret I didn't request for before you get work done by these crooks! First of all, the negotiations were all verbal and Dovlet said it'll be $190 for 1.5 hrs of work plus the clips to fix my window that wouldn't go back up. I said cool sounds good went to lunch came back in LESS than an hour and walked in on Dovlet and his assistant PLAYING ON THEIR PHONES in their little office...I asked if it was done cuz I didn't get a call like he said he would, and they both look flustered and said "Ohh yea we just finished". That was already sketch to me like whatever ok I'll just pay the $190. When I ask if there is any type of paperwork about the work done I gotta sign he says, "Yea here sign this" and it was the little receipt that you sign for when you slide your debit card from a reader and THATS IT! NO INVOICE NO NOTHING! I said sooo if I have the same problem I can just come back and you'll fix it right? He said yea just come back.... ONE WEEK LATER. Rolled window all the way down and won't go back up! Called Dovlet, told him, he said "ohh now that might be the regulator that's gonna cost $480-$500" RIDICULOUS. If i come in and PAY for something to get repaired and it fails again after 1 week, I expect the mechanic to repair it at NO CHARGE. DO NOT COME HERE, IF YOU DO, GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING read more

I know Dovlet, the owner of "D&A Autobahn" for few years, when he was a technician in Peter Pan BMW and DINAN Performance. He always was wery accurate in his job. Always said what to do first and save me a lot of money. Now he has his own shop and this is only place to fix my BMW for now. Hi has latest computers for diagnistics and repair. I know he is very good in any BMW, especially in M Series! Highly recommend! read more

Dovlet is a super nice guy and someone I trust. I have been here a couple of times and he has done a great job every time. Just like a doctor you want to make sure that you have a reliable and trustworthy mechanic and I have found mine. read more

After the service warranty ran out on my brother's X5, we were looking for an alternative to the more expensive BMW dealerships and came across D&A and ended up paying almost half the price of a dealership. It also turns out that it was the same guy who fixed his car at Peter Pan is the one who owns and operates D&A. Couldn't be happier with the continued quality service and saving money too! read more

It was my first year in US. I bought a 2007 Toyota and I had an emergency repair already so I was expecting the worst. I found the light of my car was on. Other auto repair wanted all diagnostic check before fix. I didn't have money and time. A friend recommended me Dovlet. I called him at 8.40 p.m. and asked when I can bring my car. He was very friendly and patient. My explanations were awful. Dovlet asked me make pictures and send them on the phone. Immediately he gave me some suggestion without any charge! And I fixed my car myself! It was a lucky day for me! When my car needs work done again, I'll be coming back to Dovlet to have it done! Definitely I recommend D&A Autobahn! read more

Highly recommended shop for your BMW! If you don't care about all the frills and fanciness of the BMW dealership, but care more about great service at a reasonable price, this is the place for you. I've been there twice already and have been happy with the service, prices, and timeliness of repairs. Dovelet Babayev is an expert certified BMW mechanic, very knowledgeable and helpful. Seems like he can do all types of BMW service and has access to BMW recall info. Doesn't try to hard sell you on repairs that you don't need right away. Two thumbs up and I'll be bringing my BMW here from now on! read more

I went to Davlet and Atajan on an AAA's driver's recommendation for a minor repair. I was so impressed with his knowledge and no-nonsense approach to car repair - and I trusted them - I have continually returned. When he completed a full 90K tune-up for half the dealer's quote on my 2005 BMW M5, he won my loyalty. He has since kept my car in excellent shape and I will continue to go to him. I would recommend him to anyone with a BMW or Mini. Good job, guys! read more

D&A Autobahn - Auto Repair Near Me

We called D&A about my 2008 BMW cluster display which it had stopped working. Dovlet answered the phone and said that we can bring in the car the same day. We went to D&A since it is close to where we live. As soon as we arrived they hooked up the car to a computer to diagnose the issue and right away they knew what the issue was. Dovlet worked on the car and in minutes it was fixed. The price couldn't be more awesome and cheaper than anyone we contacted. BMW of Fremont quoted us $286 just to diagnose the problem and another place was similar in price. I use to always take my car to the BMW dealership but now I will take it to D&A. Dovlet is an honest man and explains what is wrong with your BMW. BMW had recommended repairs that was not needed such as the tensioner. Dovlet examined the tensioner and said there is no need to replace it. He has a customer for the life of my car. I would recommend D&A to anyone. Thank you D&A read more

Hello Everyone, I dont normally post, but this Garage deserves an excellent Review. So, I was selling my BMW M3 and a buyer had one of his BMW mechanic friends look at the car. Everything was exceptional on my car, but the BMW guy found a small leak in the DCT transmission. He said that it was leaking from the TOP (which means dropping the Tranny), and that it would cost 3.5k to 4k to fix. The Buyer, then was trying to lower this amount off of my asking price. I wanted a second opinion and found DnaAutobahn on yelp. I emailed Dovlet (Cool Head Guy) and he was quick to respond to my emails and gave me a nice email estimate based on the information I gave him. When I got to the shop and explained it better, however, he quoted me a higher price because my emails werent very clear with a TOP leak. He thought I was saying it was a SIDE OR BOTTOM LEAK (doesnt require dropping the tranny). Either way, he quoted me about $1800 or so for the labor and parts for a TOP leak. I left the car with him and told him to move forward. The next day, Dovlet called and let me know that the leak was actually a SIDE leak and that it did not require dropping the tranny. His estimate went down to only $1340!!! I was so excited that he was going to do it for even cheaper and he was very forthcoming with everything. When I came to pick up the car, he showed me the old parts that he took out and took time to explain exactly what he did. He also checked my brakes and reset the computer for FREE! Dovlet is respectful and a gentleman as well. I will be recommending his shop to all my BMW friends and will be returning. This shop is honest, efficient, reliable and has excellent customer Service! Thank you for reading this and have a great day! read more

Great customer service! Knowledgeable, reasonably prices, adheres to quotes and does excellent work! Found a great mechanic, he even works on domestic cars too! read more

It has not come in to my mind for a long while that a review is missing here, finally, here I am now. Believe me when I say I carpet bombed the entire area within 10 miles of my zip: bimmer owner forum, craigslist, Angie's list, yp, google, yahoo, facebook, adoptapet.com, yelp, and any other means you can name--D&A Autobahn topped the list of "who offers dealership class service yet cares about the fitness of your wallet?". Despite his dazzling silver trophy, Dovlet, the shop owner, is actually pretty cool (; Most importantly, the quality of their work really makes that Silver Trophy shines, to top off the fraction-of- what-dealership-is-charging price, Dovlet gave me coupons specifically for the upcoming service needed for my 328Xi. As a result, I am about to use those coupons now, just keep in mind that D & A Autobahn opens to you as well. Peace~ read more

Just like everyone else, after the warranty and optional maintenance ran out in our x3 we were looking to save a little money. Unfortunately we first went with someone else, and he had none of the equipment or knowledge to work on our car, so we went searching again. Found D&A on bimmershops.com and the reviews sounded promising. We were not disappointed in the least. Not only does Dovlet seem to have a ton of experience with BMW's unconventional configurations, he's incredibly nice and makes us really comfortable with what he's doing. On top of that, his prices are even lower than the less-experienced mechanic we went to first! read more

Honest and reliable BMW technicians. I could not ask for more when they took care of my E60 M5. They do a great job and prices are a fraction of the dealership prices. Thanks Dovlet! read more

At first I was skeptical about this place. I drive a 428i and that's like my baby. I felt that dealerships were over charging me and I heard a about this place through my friend who gets his 6 series done here so I checked them out on yelp and I said why not give it a shot. I can say that they did not disappoint they did all the maintenance needed on my car oil change and my front and rear brakes. They also gave me a very good price as well! It is owned by 2 brothers who do an outstanding job for the right amount and give you the proper service your car need. I highly recommend this place to anyone with a BMW or Mini Cooper! read more

D & A Autobahn has surpassed all of my expectations. Time after time, they get me in same day and give my BMW the service and care that it needs. Your loyal customer, Justin read more

Review based on purchasing car via craigslist - seller used this address/company. I KNOW BUYER BEWARE IS REAL. and i'm quite aware that when purchasing a car without any peace of mind knowing really what state it's in...is a risk! However, the person that i bought this car from - he was all about selling the car. i asked about the plates (none). told us it was an out of state vehicle. and didn't say anything else. said that once we transfer the title over, we'll receive the plates... upon going to the DMV, i ended up paying over $400 in fees. Look...i got a great deal on the car. it's one thing if it was just a "guy" on craigslist. but it's another thing when you claim to be a business and then fail to tell your customer that there will be backfees. that's just not good business. if you're going to conduct a successful one, you should be CLEAR about everything when asking. read more

This place is great got my m- sport steering wheel installed on my BMW and did a great job and SAVE me money anther place charges almost twice as much .highly recommend for ALL BMW owner read more

First time here ever after my 2012 BMW 328i warranty expired and have it Brake Fluid Flush, Spark Plug replaced, Oil change. Now my Bimmer feels like new again and run strong. Good job Dovlet with supreme service and he won't ask customer to do unnecessary service. Highly recommend to anyone who owns a Bimmer and need any kind of service. Charlie Hayward, CA read more

First time oil change with D and A Autobahn. I am extremely satisfied with their service and fair price. I was in and out in 20 min with an appointment. Comfy waiting room with big tv for Netflix or YouTube is a nice touch. I plan to come back to them for any maintenance on my BMW in the future. read more

great service for d&a autobahn i have 2012 bmw 340i i had some trouble , got standed on the road , and got my car towed there. they were able to the diagnose the issue and were very helpful to provide me details are the issue and options available to me. i'm impressed with high level of customer care provided to me. be aware that they can be busy with great service they provide, so call ahead and make an appointment if possible. read more

Great service! Dovlet and staff are the man! Very respectable and honest. Would suggest any BMW owners to pay a visit if any car problems occur. read more

Plain rude! I called for a Quote and He says "you need to read what it says on yelp" If you care about customer service This is not the place to go. read more

Very professional mechanics and good prices. Thanks them very much for their job with my BMW

Had stubborn electrical problem that my BMW dealership couldn't fix. They changed component after component, but the problem came back again and again, so I took a chance on D&A Autobahn and was well received by the owner. Within 2 days I had my 530 back and it has run perfectly ever since. read more

When a starter on my car went out, I contacted some bmw dealership by chance. I was quoted over 1000$ and plus, wouldn't be able to fix my car til Monday, not to mention my dealership is in Mountain View and I live in Fremont . Well, I decided to use Yelp and shopped around couple BMW shops and found out about DnA Autobahn, not only they beat the price, but warranty offered to me is something unbelievable!!!! I called in and they were able to take me in and change out my starter on the same day in just a few hours. They save my money! Wow!This saved me so much hassle and money. Strongly recommend D&A Autobahn. They are definitely the best!! read more

I have been to D&A Auto twice now and the service has been impeccable. Dovlet is no-nonsense and tells you exactly what you should do (all while keeping your best interest in mind). I sadly know nothing about cars, but Dovlet takes the time to explain my options regarding every situation without making me feel like an idiot. I am not bombarded with bs fixes that I do not need and never do I walk away feeling like I am dealing with a sketchy shop. Dovlet and his team really knows their stuff and I will not be taking my BMW anywhere else. If you want amazing service, great pricing, and an honest work, look no further. Apparently he also has BMW's for sale and provides warranty for them too...definitely check it out! read more

I found out that the owner of D&A Autobahn is the mechanic that was fixing my car at Peter Pan. He has been providing quality and professional service. Now that he has his own shop, I checked it out just recently and was able to get my car maintained for less cost that the dealerships have been charging me. That's great and will keep coming back! read more

I was referred to D&A Autobahn from an old friend of mine and after confirming with YELP, I decided to give him a call. I dropped by later that afternoon. After test driving my bmw, I was told brakes and control arm. Dovlet explained in plain English what was wrong with my car, how it happened and what my options are. He was very thorough and printed out a quote for me. I shopped around and took my car to couple more places, but nobody can beat the price and warranty (2 years or 24K miles. YAY!!) 3 weeks later I made my decision and came back. Dovlet let me know what to expect, how long he would need the car for and confirmed the price again. He did not oversell or under promise, two things most auto repair places do. Thank you, guys, for your help. I will be back if I need future work (hopefully not any time soon). read more

Review on Mini Cooper 2009 hardtop wheel bearing replacement. Car started making really loud metal scraping noise a week before I took it to D&A. The noise started coming right after I got off the highway and I was down in Santa Clara at the time so I naturally freaked out that this must be an ER situation (the noise was SUPER loud screeching metal scraping noise). Took it to the nearest shop and the guy took my front left wheel apart to take a look...he said it "might" be wheel bearing but this shop didn't specialize in BMW/mini so didn't have parts ready. He was super busy but made the time to take a quick look because I said this might be an emergency situation. The noise came and went...came and went. I'd hear the noise sometimes but it was not as loud or as bad or I wouldn't hear it. Random. I didn't drive the car for about a week since I didn't want to make the matter worse in case something was really broken. Decided to look for a shop that deals with BMW/mini near house. D&A is only a mile from where I live. Called Dovlet to explain my issue. He didn't make appointment for me but told me to call him back on Friday afternoon and he'd see if he can squeeze me in on a Saturday morning. I hadn't driven my car for about a week after the first incident and didn't notice any metal scraping noise on my way to D&A so I explained that to him. His response was something along the line of "well...I already ordered the parts for you so even if it's not wheel bearing issue, you will have a new wheel bearing" (TBH I don't even think he "ordered the parts for me" because he said nothing about ordering parts in our phone call or yelp message). I was a bit confused...like okay I get it but don't autoshops try to diagnose the problem for the customer? This is the EXACT message I sent him via Yelp before coming to the shop: Hi! I have a 2009 mini cooper and it started making this really loud metal dragging noise since last Sunday. Autoshop person took a quick look and said there might be an issue with wheel bearing in the front left tire. When is the earliest available date you can take a look and fix? Approximately how much would this cost? Thanks!. (key word: there MIGHT be a wheel bearing issue not there IS a wheel bearing issue). Aren't you supposed to try to diagnose the problem rather than basically just say "you said it might be a wheel bearing issue so we are going to fix wheel bearing even though I'm NOT sure if it's really the issue". I was so annoyed and dissatisfied with the way he talked, I came home and did some more research on wheel bearing issue and the sound I would hear etc. Watched endless Youtube videos and the noise I heard from my car sounded nothing like bad wheel bearing noise to me. Maybe I should've done more research before going to Dovlet but I assumed these people would diagnose, pinpoint the issue and fix (that's why ppl go to autoshop in the first place...otherwise I'd just do it myself right?!). Plus he had really good reviews on Yelp (learned to never trust Yelp). Dovlet just seemed to skip this whole part and was just looking to make couple hundred bucks on a Saturday morning. He called me to come get it after about an hour and a half later...I kind of hoped that he'd explain to me what the issue was since he took a look inside the wheel (OH I WAS WRONG). I should've just called him to stop working on my car (too late). I asked him "So did the wheel bearing look bad?"...he said "to be honest, I couldn't hear any noise...but can't be certain because you can really only tell when the car is on the road moving...". WELL I was super annoyed but IDK why I just didn't say anything then and there...I guess I was kind bummed out by this unexpected & unprofessional response...I was just like "OKAY...(trying to process wtf of a response is this). He could've taken it for a test drive or something...?! What kind of autoshop does work like this? So if I call in and say "hey my engine seems to have an issue (and I'm someone who has zero knowledge on cars)"...does he just replace my engine?! like really what the actual f**k? I should have taken this to the shop in Mountain View where I used to go before I moved to Union City. I do NOT recommend D&A to anybody...and all these 5 star reviews must be his friends or friends' friends or Yelp playing since he seems to be running Ad w/ Yelp. He didn't have good customer service...okay that's fine whatever but I expected him to be knowledgeable and give me concrete answers to my problems rather than IDK but IMMA FIX IT CUS YOU SAID TO FIX IT. Tried to go somewhere near house and I just ended up throwing away 400 bucks on something I probably didn't even need. Should've just went to my Mountain View shop where he will diagnose and explain thoroughly what my issue is, what he recommends and ask what I want to do. So pissed and can't get over the feeling of "being ripped off". read more

I have a 2006 325i that I've owned for almost 10 years and have been to several mechanics. Dovlet's customer service is in the top 3 for me. He's personable, genuine, reasonable, and helpful. I had a major repair in Sept 2014 and after running the diagnostic he was very forthcoming about what was a priority and what could be handled later. This was helpful to me because I was in a tight place financially. I appreciate his honesty and good work and will continue to bring my car to him. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. Initially the owner Dovlet seemed really helpful and told me that he would be able to repair the smell of burning oil/rubber in my car in a few hours or a day at the most. He ran a diagnostic while I was there and said nothing came up. Great! He was going to keep my car to do a routine tune up. He then called me within an hour of leaving and told me my struts were leaking and it'd be an additional $750 to repair. He also added that there was another leak somewhere else and it's going to be more as well. So my original estimate of $500 went up to $1,700. He said it was not "necessary" but optional. I told him to go ahead and repair the oil leak but hold off on the struts. This seemed to piss him off and he had an attitude after I told him no. So, I got my car the next day and still paid $1,200. He was NOT as friendly as the day I came in and gave me a receipt that says he guaranteed his work but if I take it anywhere else, it is void. A few days later my car started smelling like burnt oil AGAIN. I honestly got bad vibes from that place so I reluctantly took it to the BMW dealer. They immediately told me I had a huge leak in my oil pan and it was dripping all over and that was the cause of the smell. EVERYTHING he said and wrote that he repaired was a total lie!! It was ACTUALLY repaired by the dealers and has been fine since. *DO NOT TRUST THIS GUY!'* he is an absolute crook and completely shady!! He pretty much ripped me off for $1,200 and did nothing but waste my time and money. I have my family in my car so I do NOT appreciate someone putting us at risk for a car breakdown after I pay good money to keep it running properly! Take your business elsewhere to someone who is a decent mechanic and not out to just take your money!! read more

Dovlet is hands down the best. He is passionate on what he does. And takes care of our cars. You can trust that he does quality work no matter what it is. Been taking care of our 2009 335i and 2006 Mercedes r350. Great place overall. Highly recommended. Thanks again David and wife. read more

Been here twice his expertise and knowledge abt european cars..specially bmw Highly recommended!!

Great place to have your BMW serviced, Dovlet is the owner and he is very professional and honest. He is very knowledgeable since he worked for dealership before opening his own shop. He charges less the dealer but gives you a better warranty. I would highly recommend you fix anything wrong with your car here. And lets not forget his assistant who happens to be his younger brother he is very personable polite an knowledgeable as well.. read more

Dovlet and Atajan are very personable technicians. They specialize in BMWs, so they're trained to point out any potential issues, which could save you $$$ down the road if you decide to do preventative maintenance. Both have a passion for BMWs. Definitely recommend D & A! read more

Broughi my car in for a steering angle sensor issue that I have been dealing with for the last 1.5 years. I brought it to other shops but they could not pinpoint the cause of it. I took my car previously to D&A Autobahn for oil change and brake fluid service and when I told him about this problem with the steering, he knew right away it was the steering angle assembly that is on the steering column. There were some initial problems with the calibration and setup that affected other modules which set my car in the shop longer than expected. However, I was give a loaner car and ultimately, my steering angle sensor problem was finally fixed. Highly recommended. read more

great place. great customer service. work is done in a timely matter. i will become a regular customer for all my cars maintenance and or repairs. read more

Excellent work with a good price! Dovlet did a good job in servicing my car from engine oil gasket replacement to my car differential... He even did cosmetic installation on my 2015 BMW M4! This shop is highly recommended! read more

this shop for bmw m3 2005 change oil cost me 440$ and they said they fix something but they cant explain
