I had my car towed to Gulfcoast Eurowerkes after it suddenly would not go into drive. When I initially called, the staff sounded knowledgeable and confident and said they had dealt with this issue before. The shop also had many five-star reviews, which made me feel comfortable bringing my car there. My car was towed after business hours on a Friday. I called ahead and was told to use the key drop box and send a text with my name and number so they could contact me the following week. I did exactly that. By Wednesday I still hadn't heard anything, so I called and was told they had no idea whose car was on their lot. They said they had been having phone issues and never received my message. I gave my information again and was told they would call when they looked at the car. Over the next couple of weeks I repeatedly called for updates and was told they were "slammed" and hadn't gotten to it yet. Because of the lack of communication, I even had someone go in person to confirm the car was actually there. When they tried to open it, the car was completely dead and the doors wouldn't unlock. Eventually I was told they were trying to determine why the battery was dead. A few days later they said the battery was "fried." I explained the battery had been replaced just days before the tow and should still be under warranty at the previous shop, and I asked them to set it aside so I could return it. To keep things moving, I approved them to install a new battery. For the next couple of weeks, every time I called I was told they thought they had figured out the issue draining the battery, only for that explanation to change the next time I called. After about a month, I was told the car was fixed and ready for pickup on a Friday. I drove nearly two hours and arrived around 4:30 PM, only to be told the car actually wasn't done and they had just taken it for a test drive while I was on the way. They thought it might be low on transmission fluid and told me to come back Saturday morning. At that point I was also informed they had "lost" the original battery I asked them to save. They said their battery delivery driver accidentally picked it up and they would apply a credit to my bill. When I returned Saturday morning, I was told their scanner had been left plugged in overnight and drained the new battery. After waiting for it to charge, they tried to move the car and it still would not go into drive. The following week they told me the car needed a new mechatronic unit for about $3,000. At that point I had the car towed to another shop for a second opinion. Before it could leave, I had to settle the bill. I was told diagnostics and the battery would be about $550 with a $200 credit for the lost battery. After pushing back they increased the credit to $300, but I still paid over $200 for my car to leave in the same condition it arrived--if not worse--after more than a month and a half. When the new shop started diagnostics, they informed me the battery installed by Gulfcoast Eurowerkes was already fried and they couldn't proceed without replacing it. When I contacted the shop, I was told I had to bring the battery in for testing. After driving hours to retrieve and return it, I was eventually told the battery was bad--but it was too late in the day to get a replacement. Despite repeated requests, I still have not received any receipt or warranty documentation for the battery--only an online estimate. This experience involved excessive delays, inconsistent explanations, lost property, poor communication, and a lack of basic documentation. I strongly recommend getting everything in writing if you use this shop. I do not recommend Gulfcoast Eurowerkes read more

Phenomenal service and personal treatment! My vehicle was quickly and easily scheduled into the shop for service, and work was completed when promised. My nagging, complex coolant leak was finally identified and repaired. The need for new rear brakes was also pointed out, which I had no idea about as this vehicle is relatively new to me. The cost was reasonable, unlike my trips to the dealer. I'm grateful for the dedication and skill of Vincent and the entire tech staff. read more

I wished I didn't have to leave a star as they don't deserve a star. Worst "mechanics" ever! They've had my car for 5 months and refuse to release it! I do not owe money. They know they didn't do the work they claim they did after $7k I have to take them to court to get my own car back! I know of 8 other people that this has happened to! read more

After 5 months my friend received her car back with the engine completely dismantled and placed in her back seat.. Claiming she didnt wanna pay labor... what shop asks for upfront payment to begin with? This place is disgusting and should be shut down... probably will be soon... read more

They did a great job, drop off my Jaguar for an oil change and they showed me two oil leaks caused from bad gaskets. They kept the car replaced them and everything's good now. read more

very expensive not any cheaper than the dealer replaced a part maybe 30.00 in less than an hour and was over 400

Fantastic workmanship and pricing. I would highly recommend Gulfcoast Eurowerkes for your Euro car needs.

I'm quite a demanding customer. I was searching for a local specialist to fix my daughter's car in Fort Myers and came across this place. I recently purchased this 2016 Audi A3 2.0T from Crown Audi in Clearwater. However, the car broke down just a mile after leaving the lot, and later the AC was blowing warm air. Despite three trips to Audi, I lost faith in their service department. Now, the car has intermittent misfiring issues, and I'm frustrated that I might have to drive back to Audi in Clearwater to troubleshoot the issue, which would likely cost me time and aggravation. The Audi dealer would probably have the car for days trying to find the misfire issues. Every father wants their daughter's car to be safe and reliable. It's hard when I live in Boston so it's even harder to find a good and trustful mechanic in Florida on the phone. I took a chance and had my daughter bring the car to Gulfcoast Eurowerkes (Vincent is the owner). He found 2 issues with the car: a bad high-pressure fuel pump and leaky upper timing cover gaskets. I called Crown Audi and informed the Sales Manager that Vincent had diagnosed the issue of the misfiring. The manager became defensive, stating he had never heard of a high-pressure fuel pump causing misfiring in an Audi A3. I had Vincent fix all the issues, which he did in 3 hours. Hopefully, I won't have any other issues with this car but if I do my daughter will be back. I stand behind this statement: Gulfcoast Eurowerkes has good pricing and fast, reliable service that you can trust...NO BS! I found my new Audi Specialist and Vincent deserves a 5-star rating in my book. read more
