As a girl, I wanted a trustworthy mechanic, when I went to change my oil at another place they told…read moreme it had a leak, I took my car to Excalibur, the front desk guy was nice and told me they would check my car for the leak and all the things, he quoted me upwards of $600 dollars - I agreed. I left my car about 2 days this was in March and then I picked it up, they told me they fixed the leak, that the smell of oil would linger until the car had burned the oil that spilled down, I drove my car, and consistently saw leaks and smelled oil, I thought it was my AC water in the floor, I worked from home so I don't drive my car a lot, come July and the oil change light came on, it has never come on before, even when I had not changed my oil.. I took it to Excalibur for the oil change, I made an appt for 8AM as reccomended by the front desk guy James - I get there at 8, I greet him, he looks at me, doesn't greet me, no answer, he looks miserable, he just barks at me "last name?" I give him my last name, they take my car, I sit and wait. Another lady comes in and he's all the sudden all smiley and nice.. when my car is done. He barks at me that my car is done.. I go to pay, he tells me my car is leaking oil.. and that I could have blown the motor.. I tell him that I thought they had fixed that 3 months ago.. he looks surprised back tracks and says oh it's probably not the same leak.. the leak probably went to another weak spot- but to bring the car in again and they look at it- I do... he calls me and tells me that it's a different leak- I ask him that why didn't they fix it back then - he says my car is old, he tells me it's "100% on you" that I didn't call them sooner - James was super rude and standing behind subpar lazy service- he wanted to charge me upwards of $400 to fix the leak - I said no, took it to my other mechanic- my other mechanic said that the leak was visible and that they had only changed the top part and not the actual main leak on the car - never going back there again, James if you don't want to be professional and patient, even my boyfriend that doesn't know you said you were super rude to him when he went to drop of my car - just save everyone the agony of your services. I knew I wasn't gonna get my money back and I wouldn't trust my car back in their hands.. never again..

They were especially accommodating about the timing which Chris I really appreciate. My baby doesn't scream anymore unless I open her up on the highway which is frankly more of a growl.

Second, they do quality work that won't leave you broke like the dealership will. German Auto Center knows German cars. They fixed mine with over 150K+ miles after a hard break where I thought car was done for. Don't you hate that feeling where you can't trust your car anymore. Not after getting it serviced and fixed with these guys. Their pricing is extremely reasonable compared to Audi North or South dealerships. I will continue to get my vehicle serviced here as long as they keep it running and it looks like that'll be for quite a while. Thanks guys.

A colleague recommended European Motorwerks. I called & Russell was amazing! I brought in the car & in the same day he identified the issue & did a full diagnostic (at my request). He called giving me options on how i wanted to handle the suspension issue vs. telling me I had to replace everything. He provided me a detailed cost breakdown too. He ordered the parts & had my car ready the next day! The price was extremely reasonable and even came in slightly below the estimate. Russell was fair, honest & communicated every step of the way. I will be coming here for everything I need for my car! Thanks to Russell & the entire team at European Motorwerks!

The customer service was amazing, and we appreciated Russel's honest and up front updates, contacting my warranty place, and getting my car back to me in 2 days as good as new! It was nice to get my car fixed. It was a pleasure to deal with a place and someone that didn't give us the run around and actually knew what they were doing.

There are mechanics... and then there are the tired saints standing at the edge of civilization…read moreholding together the fragile emotional ecosystem known as "people who need their car to start tomorrow." Buddha's Garage is the second one. Dave has the energy of a man who has looked directly into the screaming mechanical abyss of humanity and simply sighed, grabbed a wrench, and fixed it anyway. I swear half the vehicles in that shop arrive after being spiritually wounded somewhere else. Other mechanics will look at your engine like medieval doctors diagnosing ghosts. Dave looks at it once, tilts his head slightly like a jazz musician hearing a wrong note, and suddenly knows your alternator was installed backwards by somebody named Tyler in 2019. And here's the wild part: he's honest. Like deeply, suspiciously honest. The kind of honest that makes you uncomfortable because you forgot businesses could still operate without trying to sell you seventeen imaginary emergencies. Dave will straight up tell you cheaper alternatives, better options, things you can wait on, things you DON'T need. I almost wanted to ask him if he understood capitalism. The customer service feels less like a business and more like your truck wandered into a monastery where everyone took vows of kindness and diagnostic accuracy. Meanwhile other shops are out here playing roulette with socket sets: "Hmmm yes, perhaps your issue is... all of the parts." Then Buddha's Garage fixes it in an afternoon and somehow charges you like they still believe in human dignity. Also -- Dave knows an absolutely terrifying amount about vehicles. Not "guy who watches YouTube tutorials" knowledge. I mean ancient-library-hidden-under-the-desert knowledge. The kind where you start explaining the noise your car makes and he already knows the answer before you finish making the sound effect. At this point I'd trust Buddha's Garage with anything mechanical. My car. My lawn mower. A damaged submarine. If NASA called and said a shuttle was making a weird clicking noise, I'd probably hand them Dave's number. I'm going there no matter what. If I move across the state, I'll crawl back on flaming rims like a pilgrim returning to holy ground.

A warm and friendly greeting was my first impression by the office manager. Amazing service from start to finish. Thorough communication from the technician and owner about the processes and service rendered. Transparency on all prices quoted over the phone and during checkout. Location was easy to find and close to convenient stores or a coffee shop for waiting nearby. Honest, professional, competitively priced, I have no complaints. It's a locally owned family owned and run business that seems to always give to the community through other charitable endeavors.

My car was around 70k miles the the first time I brought it in according to an old invoice I found, and now it has about 160k miles on it and shows no signs of slowing down but if I do have issues, I know where to take it! I've referred countless friends because Patrick and team have earned my trust, something that's not always easy when looking for a place to get your car worked on. They've earned it by not only fixing/maintaining my vehicle at reasonable prices, but also because they've recommended NOT replacing things that don't need to be on several occasions. In an economy where you'd be apprehensive about a shop upcharging you as much as possible, this kind of honesty is truly refreshing!

So then when my neighbor took off my bumper a few weeks later, I knew exactly who I wanted to go to in order to have the body work done. It took about a week to get a new bumper, lights, paint job done, which is amazing considering this accident happened over Thanksgiving (my neighbor was apologetic and i'm grateful he left a note). I'll walk towards my car and admire how it glitters and shines in the sun. The job was impeccable, the team at the shop were communicative and supported me throughout this entire process with insurance by doing all the communicating. Seriously 5 star service and 5 star work.
