Found my new go-to shop for everything automotive, and Joey at Bavarian Auto Repair is the reason…read morewhy. Monday morning, torrential downpour on the way to work, I drove through some high water in my 2010 Jetta. Didn't think much of it until the drive home that evening, when the car started sputtering with the check engine and EPC lights both coming on. Called Joey at 5pm and he immediately had a tow truck contact ready (Allen's 24/7 Towing, also outstanding, 20 minute response time in downtown San Antonio). Dropped the car off after hours and Joey called first thing the next morning with full diagnostics already done. He found the high water from that morning's commute had pushed into the ignition coil wells, where an existing valve cover gasket leak had already let oil pool. That combination took out a coil and fouled the plugs. No upselling, no scare tactics, just a clear explanation of what failed and why, with a straightforward repair plan: valve cover gasket, all 5 spark plugs, and the one failed coil. Communication was constant throughout, and he had it ready Wednesday just before close. Even gave me the military discount, sent me home with a thank-you note and a gift bag, and walked me through exactly what to watch for to keep this Jetta running well long-term. At 70k miles on a 2010, he made it clear this car has plenty of life left in it if maintained right and that's exactly the kind of honest, customer-first advice that earns repeat business. This is what a real repair shop should look like: transparent diagnosis, fair pricing, zero pressure, and genuine care for the customer beyond just the transaction. Joey and the team at Bavarian Auto Repair have a customer for life. Highly recommend to anyone in San Antonio looking for a mechanic they can actually trust.

I've been doing my own car work for 52 years, including 42 years on Porsches, but when I bought our 2016 Macan S 4 years ago from Carmax, I got their extended warranty (MaxCare) because it's so computerized and complicated. On Porsche Club member's recommendations, I took it to Premier1 and now have taken it there several times for issues covered under the extended warranty. Considering that I do most of my own car work, the guys take the time to explain everything to me and answer a 100 questions. Premier1 takes great care of me and the Macan! Premier1 took care of the coordination with Carmax's extended warranty provider and made the whole process easy, and since Premier1 is in network with Repair Pal, we only had to pay our $250 deductible per visit.

Customers please be aware that Alex will talk a great plan on the work they plan on doing to your…read morevehicle but the end result will be not fixing your issue and charging you thousands of dollars. I went in with my 2019 Jeep and requested them change my coils, spark plugs and boots due to a tune up check engine light. Alex said not to change the coils because they hardly ever go bad. He said he would fix my vehicle for less than it was quoted. I left the vehicle there for three days. They did the work and after $1200 the vehicle was still idling bad. I have never had issues with my Grand Cherokee before then. Alex then told me as I was picking up my Jeep that my water pump was leaking and my coolant was low. He recommended I fix the water pump. I had them buy an OEM water pump and replace it. $1200 later it was fixed. I took my Jeep home and a week later it was all of a sudden leaking coolant and oil. I took my Jeep to The Jeep Dealership and paid $500 for an estimate on the issues. Low and behold they said my water pump was leaking and I needed a new water pump. When I called Hill Country Automotive and spoke with the two owners they refused to pay my labor cost back because I was going to do the work again at the Jeep dealership to get things fixed right. The owner who started speaking in Spanish because he started acting like he was not understanding me, told me he could nit refund my money and I told him I needed my invoice because I was going to replace it at the Jeep dealership. I told him since it was an OEM part it did have warranty and if he wasn't going to be going to hold himself responsible for such horrible service since my water pump was still leaking that I was going to do the work at the dealership. I needed their invoice since they "ordered" the OEM part. Well he told me he would have to look for the invoice and go a few hours later. Mind you, I had done the work the week before but he could not produce an OEM invoice on my water pump. That was very sketchy because who knows if they even did buy and put on an OEM part. This entire shop seems to be looking to find "issues that suddenly arise" charge a lot of money for parts and labor and cannot get your car running properly. This garage is almost a scam shop. I gave them $2500 and did not get my problems fixed, no money refunded and ended up doing the same work to find the fix at the Jeep dealership in Boerne. Please THINK TWICE before going to this shop. If you do, understand that they will not be fair, will over charge you and you will have to pay twice to get your issue fixed. Sad but true.
