Your one stop shop for all things Porsche! Mike, Lisa and the entire team at Powertech are always extremely accommodating, courteous, and most knowledgable no matter what the task at hand may be. The quality of work along with the value that you get as a consumer far surpasses that of any Porsche Dealership service center or any other race shop. Highly recommended! If you have a Porsche in the tristate area, I strongly recommend Powertech in Rockaway, NJ for hands down the best Porsche service around. Big thanks to Powertech for ensuring my 997 is always dialed in & running strong for the past 30k+ miles! read more

Powertech - Auto Repair Near Me - Rockaway, New Jersey

Great shop. They are honest, trustworthy and have great customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them,

Been taking my cars to P-Tech since the day they opened. Knowledgeable, fair, competitively priced and they stand by their work. If you are interested in DE, they are one of the best shops around for making sure you are driving a safe car and dependable for the rigors of track driving. read more

My husband is a Porsche fan. I am a cheapskate who cannot understand his expensive hobby. But everyone needs a vice and this is his. PowerTech is the only place he and I both agree on when it comes to his metal babies. Finding a good mechanic is important to preserve the value of your car. PowerTech was recommended by hubby's buddy Paul B. in 2010 and PowerTech service our 911 (sold), 912 and 964. Mike, Keith and the entire staff are knowledgeable and (more importantly) professional. After years of dealing with bad mechanics it is a relief to have a place that you can trust will give you solid advice. They aren't cheap but they know what they are doing. Repairs are specific and reliable. You're not paying for their learning curve. That is true value so I am happy. They are also passionate and can be sweet-talked into letting you see your car while it is worked on. Techs are happy to answer your questions and give thorough explanations to help you decide what to do. Rob is especially helpful. Regardless if you are a novice or veteran Porsche owner this is where you should go. read more

Worst costumer service, unfriendly, nasty attitude .Will never give them my business again nor recommend them to any of my Porsche friends. My experience couldn't had been worst dealing with Mike and Kieth. read more

I was so happy with how professional Powertech was! They informed me of everything they were doing on my 1974 914 every step of the way. Their prices are very fair! this will be the only shop that I bring my Porsche too! Keith, Karen and Lisa are great! read more

I bought my Targa from Powertech in 2013 and have serviced it there since. My last visit to Powertech was awful. The repairs done on the car were incomplete. They said he car needed an alignment, but it was not done. The AC and the radio did not work correctly after I got the car back. I specifically asked them to take a look at the ac and radio, which were functioning before I brought the car in. No one answered any of my questions or returned any of my calls. In fact I wanted to bring another Porsche in for a post purchase inspection and they would not let me do so. They were rude and responsive and gave me quite a bit of attitude without any provocation whatsoever. Lisa and the girl at the front desk are the opposite of helpful and accommodating. Most importantly the work they did was incomplete I do not trust them and my car is in worse shape than before I brought it in. They made it completely clear they do not need of appreciate their customers or care about their work. read more

Have been going to Powertech for years for routine service. A recent failure of the original control module in my 2012 Boxster S caused a host of issues with lights, the convertible top, the spoiler, the locks, the interior lights, and more. There was also some pretty strange "Christine" type possessed behavior with the car continuously attempting to open and close the boot even with the car off and no key in the ignition. The spontaneous opening and closing of the boot with the convertible top still latched unfortunately took out a few arms and other parts in the process. The repair done by Powertech was nothing short of amazing. Rob brought the car back from the dead and returned it in better condition than when I brought it in. Powertech was honest about parts needed and their cost and did whatever possible to keep the cost down for what could have been a crazy costly repair to what was a fair minimum under the circumstances. They consistently provide excellent service. read more

I have been going to Powertech for about 25 years. I expect excellence and have always received that level of service from them. Fair, open and experts at what they perform. If you treasure your Porsche this is the place for you. read more

I've been going to Powertech for several years with several different porsche- I'm a hobbyist and do a lot of motorsport with my cars. These guys are extremely knowledgeable, effective and extremely reasonably priced for the work they do. They've done everything from factory-fresh repairs to more creative motorsport tuning activities like welding roll cages etc. on my cars. I come from a tech background myself with extremely high standards for perfection and Powertech has NEVER disappointed me in all the years I've interacted with them. read more

Ryan took really great car of my 911. There was quite a bit of work to be done and he communicated cost and the recommended work clearly. Ill definitely be coming back for my next service. read more

First off, Powertech only services and works on Porsches. So any other makes need to find somewhere else. But for anyone looking for an excellent Porsche shop in Northern Jersey, this place is great. I went to them on recommendation of a couple members of the Porsche Club of NJ, and what I got was (better than?) a dealer's level of expertise without the dealer's prices. The fact they only service Porsches means they service a LOT of Porsches, and know what they're doing. I took my 2004 Boxster in for some brake work that made itself apparent on a drive from Chicago to NJ. They did the work on time, at the price they quoted, by the time they stated. They gave me great prices on the parts, the labor was pricey, but reasonable (especially for a Porsche) and the time billed was in line with the time they actually spent, not just the "book value" that some places rely on. They threw in a free hand wash and a tire balance, and the work is perfect. You see vintage, modern, and every Porsche in between in their work bay, and they install every kind of aftermarket part you'd want. Now, I just need to find a good independent Porsche shop in Chicago! read more

A friend recommended Powertech since she mentioned that Mike and his team really care about their customers and are very knowledgeable and very good. I found out how good they really are when my radio on my 996 Porsche failed and needed a replacement. They initially gave me two recommendations and after consulting with my 24yr old son chose the one with Apple Play and a screen. They not only replaced my radio but rearranged it in the center console so that the video screen is in the optimal position. Not only I was incredibly impressed at their workmanship but my son commented that it now looks like it was factory installed. read more

Power tech is definitely the place to go for your Porsche. Mike is a great technician and very knowledgeable in his craft. But most importantly, he and his crew are very honest. Their prices are very fair and the service is better than the dealerships. I highly recommend Powertech as your Porsche people. read more

Would never trust my car here. Read the timeline below and make up your own mind. The duct tape in my transmission even beats my car getting stuck in 3rd gear driving away from their shop and the zip ties they threw around my shift cables. Top notch price...lousy work: August 7, 2014: Fuel gauge was not functioning probably. Powertech diagnosed it as a faulty fuel sender unit and added more fuel to check calibration. Of course Powertech didn't ACTUALLY calibrate the unit...more on that later. January 19, 2015: Have Sachs Sport Pressure plate installed, but only a stock clutch replacement and a resurfacing of the dual mass flywheel were recommended. Also, the parking brake handle was pulling up too high, which Powertech adjusted. Picked up the car from Powertech, drove onto the highway a short distance away, go to shift out of 3rd gear...nope...transmission stuck in 3rd gear. Got off at the first exit and pulled into a fast food parking lot. Call Mike Daino. "Well, I already left for the night. Can you make it back to the shop and get picked up or have it flat-bedded?" So, my wife now drives back another 30 minutes to come get me after I limp my Porsche back to Powertech entirely in 3rd gear on a brand new clutch after paying a nearly $8,000 bill (had 3 radiators replaced as well). The following day the car needs to be pushed into the shop and manually pulled out of 3rd gear from underneath the car. No explanation on what caused the problem. February 1, 2015: Emailed Mike Daino about zip ties I found around my transmission shift cables under my car. Two days later, Mike replies back and suggests I call, which I do, and he says the zip ties are there for an added measure to keep the cables in place. I express my displeasure at not even being consulted on that, plus I had to replace / reroute one of the zip ties since it was crushing a rubber boot around one of the cables. March 30, 2015: Email Mike Daino about the parking brake handle: "The problem now is that the handle is off center when raised. It pulls right (passenger side). This has caused a crack in the plastic housing. To avoid bringing the car back to you for a minor issue, I figured I'd adjust it if I could. In short, even after adjusting the cables at the wheels by turning the adjustment knobs through the rotors, the handle hasn't moved at all, and the problem still exists. The further up I pull it, the further right it goes...putting more pressure on the cracked housing." May 1, 2015: It appeared the hand brake was malfunctioning again. Powertech couldn't find anything wrong with it. No charge. Picked up the car and came away with another problem with the fuel gauge. Emailed Mike Daino the following day: Of course I can't seem to drive more than a mile without an issue. At least it's minor: the fuel gauge again (see below / attached). As I drove away from your shop last night, the gauge read 4/4. I knew something was wrong. It never gets past 3/4. Anyway, after 25 miles or so it started going down, and looked to be ok. 10 minutes later, it crept back up. I filled it up since I didn't know how much fuel I had. It took about 5 gallons. After driving another 80 miles today, it's still pinned at 4/4. So my question is, what is covered under warranty? I know Porsche has a 2-year warranty on their parts, if it's the sending unit again. Is labor included? POWERTECH REPLY: May 4, 2015 It's a calibration issue with all-wheel drive 996's Rich. There are actually two sides to the tank and only one side is read. Fill the tank to the top and then run it down until the reserve light comes on. Then fill it after that and you are good to go. -Mike Of course I know about my own gas tank to begin with but I still tried this -- multiple times -- to no avail. How many times should I trust Powertech with this issue? Almost 1 year since it was "fixed" and it has not worked properly ever since...until another shop got it right the FIRST time. September 23, 2015: New shop properly diagnoses the problem. The fuel gauge needed to be properly calibrated. They calibrated the fuel gauge to the sender unit. A manual process and tedious to perform. That notwithstanding, almost 2 years later, the fuel gauge is still working perfectly. May 5, 2017: Upon hearing intermittent noises from my engine compartment, the new shop finds: TECH FOUND DAMAGED CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING DUE TO CRACKED CARRIER.TECH ALSO FOUND LARGE AMOUNT OF GRAY DUCT TAPE ON CLUTCH FORK AND PRESSURE PLATE.LIKELY DUCT TAPE ENTRAPPED CAUSED DAMAGE TO CLUTCH COMPONENT. DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL AXIAL PLAY WAS FOUND OUTSIDE ALLOWABLE TOLERANCE FOR SECONDARY PLATE LONGITUDAL MOVEMENT.REMOVED SACH PERFORMANCE CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE AND STOCK OEM TURBO CLUTCH DISC.SIGNIFICANT WEAR VISIBLE TO PRESSURE PLATE SURFACE. Well, needless to say after the DUCT TAPE WAS FOUND IN MY TRANSMISSION as well as the myriad other issues documented, my car has never been and will never be back to Powertech. read more

I've taken my '88 Carrera to Powertech a few times this year and they have done a great job at a reasonable price each time. They are a great group of guys... very knowledgeable and friendly. They absolutely love, live and breath Porsches and are always willing to take the time to chat and offer helpful tips and recommendations. There are other independent Porsche shops that are closer to where I live, but Powertech is worth the extra driving distance! read more

I am a recent PowerTech client. I did a lot of research about quality Porsche shops in my area and PowerTech kept coming up as a great place to service my car. It's a 2002 Carrera Cabriolet. Had not had the IMS bearing done so we verified the engine being in good shape and Mike and his team went from there. They replaced the bearing with an LNE Ceramic bearing and while there, they found a few other issues that needed attending to. I never felt pressure and, in fact, felt that they cared about my car as much as I do. We did the service and WOW! I loved this car when I bought it but it feels so much better and smoother since the work was done. PowerTech's reputation is well deserved and I will continue to service my car there. read more

Powertech easily saved me thousands. I took a boxster to them for a buyer's pre purchase inspection, and they were so meticulous and thorough, they found things I would have never noticed. The original car dealers tried to shrug off anything like the car is perfect, but with Powertech's inspection, I was able to make the best decision. Thanks Powertech!!! read more
