Thank you Omar and Morey!! We had a nightmare with our last mechanic overcharging us and needed to…read morefind a mechanic that was reliable and could take our car in quick to be towed. We called a couple places and asked for quotes, and this one was the one we went with. Very honest and fair price along with friendly and trustworthy people. We towed the car there, and it was done within a day. They were so easy to talk to and transparent and explained everything thoroughly. Will definitely be back!

He temporarily fixed the door so I could safely drive home and provided a free estimate for the permanent repair. It's rare to find a mechanic who is this honest and willing to help without any pressure. I highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable mechanical service.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet! I've taken both of my Porsches to the owner, Al,…read morefor quite a few years now. What makes German Car Garage (GCG) so great is their service. I've only interacted with Al and one of his employees, Angel, and both of them are very kind and honest. I never feel like they're ripping me off, which is something I was careful of at other car service repair places since I'm a female and don't know much about cars. Al is extremely responsive. He texts or calls me back right away and it's always easy to get an appointment without waiting for a long time. The service prices are reasonable and if it's an easy fix, he'll take care of it quickly. I will continue bringing my car to GCG for all future service checks, repairs or car needs.

My sister was getting quoted an insane amount for her car repair by the dealership (of course) so I…read morewent on Yelp and found the German Car Garage and told her to bring her car here. The team here were quick, responsive, had great customer service and was an all around great experience. So when it was my time for my car to get an oil change, even though I live in the SGV, I knew I had to bring my car here. They had speedy wifi so I could get work done while waiting for my car. Al and the entire staff here are great all around and don't peer pressure you to do anything that your car doesn't actually need. I will be continuing to bring my car here and hope they are able to expand closer to me soon! Highly recommend you bring your German cars here.

And for that reason alone, we will be bringing all our Japanese cars here going forward.

All that was required was 1 replacement and it did the trick. Had to wait 3 weeks for an appt but worth the wait.

We got there and they were ready for me with the paper work ready to be filled out!! Wow! We then got our quote to fix the damage for our car and waited about 15 min for the tech to figure out how much it would cost. In the mean time we were in the lobby when a women who was very unadapted with hertz came in. The women up front did an AMAZING JOB calming her down and listing to her. She wasent even mad with MV auto collisions, she was mad with hertz; and the woke up front STILL listened to her and made her feel so much better even tho they were not the ones to cause the issue at hertz. Amazing 10/10 customer service and 10/10 bussiness. Will continue to come back here and refer everyone I know to come here for any and all of there collision needs.

The…read morebrutal part was waiting 4 months on the fab shop to send the replacement bumper (has nothing to do with the collision center.) I finally picked up the old girl today and she is like new. The body and mechanics guys did a phenomenal job, it drives great and I paid a little extra to get the roof/hood painted separately from the insurance claim. The guys also did a great job powdercoating and refitting the new bull bar, in addition to the winch hookups, accessory lights, etc. Definitely not your standard job! I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thanks Jesse for your patience as we waited a long time to get the bumper back. Best of all, a lifetime warranty on everything done! Who could ask for more than that?

I recently put new tires and wheels on it, but the shocks and suspension definitely needed work. I found Suspension Plus via Yelp. I spoke to the owner Ben who was very knowledgeable and pleasant. He gave my truck an inspection on the lift. He was adamant about not selling me parts I did not need. He understood my concerns about eliminating squeaks and groans of old suspension, and making the vehicle safe for my family. He identified what needed to be replaced, and what parts were still structurally sound. He showed me himself under the truck what was good and what was not, and also suggested new brake pads and rotors. I made an appointment for the following day, and all work was completed on time without any additional cost behind the estimate. My truck is now squeak free, stops great, and the gaps between the front and rear tires in the wheel wells is the same so truck has a much better, modern look. This is a full service shop and I will definitely be back with some of my other vehicles. Thank you to Ben and the guys at Suspension Plus. Would highly recommend.

I drove my 2012 Mini Cooper Countryman All 4 from New York City to Orange County to visit my…read morefamily and friends. Two weeks into my stay my poor Francesca (yes that's her name) started misfiring and I was devastated as to why she was misfiring and driving poorly. Francesca is 11 years old with 55,666 miles (which included the mileage driving across country 4 times as a New Yorker I obviously don't need to drive her much). My brother who is a mechanic ran some diagnostic test which showed that the spark plugs needed to be changed. After changing the spark plugs and further inspection he noticed that cylinder 1 kept misfiring and recommended we take Francesca to British Worx OC as they had great reviews on fixing Mini Coopers. When I called and explained the problem Ken was extremely patient, knowledgeable and understood the time constraint I was under as I had to drive back to New York City within a few days. Upon arriving at the shop Ken was personable, friendly and professional. Ken understood my concerns and listened patiently as my brother provided the diagnostics he found. The conversation between them two went well above my head however I noticed that Ken asked well thought-out questions regarding Francesca and what previous work was done. I was impressed and so was my brother. He asked a bunch of questions about Francesca like a doctor and that's when I knew British Worx OC is like a BMW/Mini Cooper hospital. Ken also gave a realistic timeline about how long it would take (which I really really appreciated. Mechanics in New York City typically give me some ambiguous timeline which is annoying especially since I have a busy schedule). Ken provided suggestions of what could cause the problem and asked that she stay overnight so they could examine Francesca in depth. I felt extremely comfortable and I had a strong impression that British Worx OC knew what they were doing. Next day Ken called me with what the problem was...Francesca needed replacement of ignition coils on cylinder 1 however because I was driving back home to NYC and the other 3 coils were very worn and old, I decided to take Ken's recommendation and have all 4 coils replaced. I also appreciated that I was told that my water pump pulley outer rubber surface was cracked and coming apart and that the drive belt needed to be replaced at some point. Well, since I knew I had 2,788 miles ahead of me to drive I didn't want to take any chances of breaking down on the interstate and decided to have these replaced as well. There were NO SURPRISES to what my cost would be. The invoice had suggestions of what could be fixed so I could see what I can do within my budget. British Worx OC gave me frequent updates and as a courtesy fixed my passenger side reflector that fell off during a rainstorm I encountered in Nebraska on my way to California. A repair that was unexpected however very much appreciated. Overall, when I went to pick up Francesca I was truly blown away by my experience and how well she was driving. My girl was fixed running so smoothly and ready to make the long drive back to New York City. The transparency, the professionalism, the work is on a different level of superiority; I've never experienced this level of quality anywhere else before in California or New York. Thank you, guys for giving me a peace of mind and ensuring my Francesca was fixed and fit for the drive across country. Wishing you all much continued success.

I absolutely love Mini Coopers! About eight years ago, I bought a used 2015 Mini Cooper, and later…read moremy son bought it from me. I then found my current car -- a 2017 Mini Clubman -- which I adore. It's versatile, fun to drive, and gets great mileage. My Clubman now has about 95,000 miles, and my son's Mini has over 125,000 miles -- both still running beautifully thanks to British Worx. This shop has been our go-to for years because of their honesty, integrity, and genuine kindness. They always take the time to explain exactly what's going on and what parts are needed. Recently, I had a coolant leak, and they diagnosed and repaired it quickly and professionally. Then, when a car wash damaged both of my rear taillights, they went above and beyond to help me find affordable replacement assemblies. I can't say enough good things about the team at British Worx. They treat you like family and truly care about their customers. It's rare to find a shop with such skill and compassion -- I wouldn't take my Mini anywhere else! Many thanks to Daniel and Christian!!!

From the first contact, I (I'm a female) was treated with respect and everything that might have been my car problem was explained in detail.......and rough estimated. The great part, was that upon actual car analyzation, they determined it was NOT as serious, and repair time was cut by two days, and my bill was 1/3 of the original rough estimate. They do everything from oil changes, to body work. We certainly will be returning to this very ethical local business.

Took my 2014 Cadillac SRX in for an oil change today…read more When the service advisor called to inform me that it was done, he listed the things which the mechanic advised need servicing. Along the laundry list was a water pump replacement priced at $941.64. I found this to be interesting since Elite replaced it on 2/22/25 at a cost of $629.83. When I mentioned this, the advisor stated he didn't see any record of doing this work. I stated that I would produce the original receipt. As I was picking the car up from the oil change, I showed it to him. Here's where it went off the rails. I no longer trust their diagnosis at all. I wanted an oil change and got lip service how parts go bad yada yada. The offer was made to put it back on the lift, but I will never believe otherwise that this mechanic doesn't know what he's doing or misrepresented the situation. Since the water pump was replaced in February there has been NO leakage that I can see. This smacks of bait and switch to me. This is only my personal opinion. Trust is paramount these days. Elite lost mine. If I had cause to believe something was wrong with the water pump, I would have long ago taken it back for that purpose. Keep your receipts and if a recommendation doesn't fit question it.
