    My dad approves!!
    Cedricke D.

    I have had a couple of services done here. I have a 2008 SL 55 AMG, Mercedes Benz. I had super charger oil changed, transmission mount, changed, and a belt wrap kit for the small supercharger pulley. In each case, Jan did a great job. Noticeable difference in the car's performance also. I would highly recommend these guys for maintenance and mods for your Mercedes.

    As an owner of a Classic Land Rover Defender 90, trying to find a mechanic that understands these cars, takes pride in their work, and is not price gouging is hard to find. I am so glad I found Jan and Steve at German Autotech. Both of these guys are amazing. They are the type of mechanics that do not overlook anything. If they see something, they say something. They are always extremely friendly, professional, and willing to do what is right over what might be "easy." They have helped me rebuild the drivetrain and then some, in my Defender and bring it back to life. This included the transfer case, transmission, glow warmer relay, suspension, and more. Without them, my car would not be where it is today. This shop is a rare place that takes great care in their service and customer relationship. I can not say enough about Jan and Steve. They consistently go above and beyond and are highly communicative. This shop is a diamond in the ruff. Highly Recommended

About a year ago I got quoted $1,400 by Midas to get my axel boots replaced on my Toyota yaris. I called him in desperation-- my parents had brought their cars to him before but I had never brought mine in, but I had heard great things. I left a message and a couple days later he called back and said I could bring in my car early in the morning so he could take a look, no appointment needed despite his crazy busy schedule. He let me know that the issue was not nearly as bad as I had been told and that he could do the job for half of what Midas had quoted me. This was my first experience with him and he has consistently shown how much he truly cares about doing right by people and taking care of their cars honestly and to the best of his ability. I feel like I could trust him with my life. When he retires eventually I will have to go into mourning. If you are not sure whether the wait for an appointment is worth it, ask yourself if you can afford to pay double whatever he will charge you to another mechanic who will not be nearly as thorough as he will be. Recently, when he had to refer me to another shop because I needed a service he doesn't provide, he asked me to still follow up and let him know how it went after the work was done, just out of the pure kindness of his heart. He is a one in a hundred million kind of mechanic.

They charged $280 just to diagnose it, and even then, they weren't able to actually fix the problem because they said they couldn't find the part. For a car as basic and common as a Ford Focus, that didn't sit right with me. What was more disappointing was the overall experience. The communication wasn't helpful, and the attitude felt dismissive rather than solution-oriented. If you're going to charge that much for diagnosis, I would expect clearer answers or at least some guidance on next steps. It also felt like their focus has shifted since moving locations. There seemed to be a lot of attention on vintage and specialty vehicles, and less interest in helping someone with a standard daily driver. At this point, I'm getting a second opinion because I don't feel confident in the diagnosis or the value of the service provided.
