My husband and I stopped by SGV Bimmer after a tire shop accidentally stripped the lug nut hole in my wheel hub. Every shop we contacted told us they couldn't fix it and that I'd need a whole new wheel hub assembly... except Clement at SGV Bimmer! Within FIVE minutes, he fixed what no other shop would even touch, topped off my fluids, and then told us, "No charge." We were honestly bewildered. It was our first time there! If that doesn't win our business, I don't know what would. Everyone was incredibly friendly, and they clearly know what they're doing. It's so refreshing to find a shop that's both knowledgeable and genuinely kind. We will absolutely be back for all of my Bimmy's future needs. read more

It's been two years since I had work done here on my 2020 g20. I had carbon fiber mirror caps, passenger side mirror motor replaced and front splitter installed here. They charged me $500 for this work. Originally it was $400 but I asked for the front splitter installed and that was another $100. I just felt like I was taking advantage off. To top it off the mirror caps wasn't installed correctly and I had another mechanic fix it. Anyways I found another mechanic that has been working on my car and wife's car that I fully trust. Not a rip off like this place. I didn't want to write this review but it's been nagging the hell out of me for how much I was charged for. He also suggested I should change my oil filter housing at 48k miles with no signs of coolant/oil leakages. Yes these are known to fail but no issues yet and I'm at 60k miles now. He said $1600 for OFH. My current mechanic can do for $1100 OE parts. My current mechanics has 8 lifts and are always busy, so no not some run of the mill shop that is low quality. Hope this helps someone out there. Edit: The owner sent me a fake invoice saying the job was $200. It was not $200. I was charged $500. I paid cash. Very petty man, now I'm super glad I posted this review. read more

Clement is the real deal. He's my go to BMW guy. He knows cars for sure but what makes him really stand out is that he's practical about his advice and he cares. He repeatedly goes above and beyond a typical car mechanic. I have a 2002 e53 with more miles than I'd like, and having Clement in my corner is a godsend. I can truly say that Clement can and will do everything in his power to keep my e53 on the road. I've owned an e32 and e53 and I will say that when you choose to own these cars, you need a person you can trust. No need to look any further- Clement is your guy. read more

SGV Bimmer - Auto Repair Near Me - El Monte, California

My 22 year old E46 was having problems. After being to two different shops with no clear fixes I was left frustrated. I went to the shop and was trying to get a quote for alternator replacement and ignition coils which the previous shop diagnosed was the issue and quoted me $2850(European Motor Works). Clemen, I assume is the owner immediately told me if the problem does turn out to be the alternator he has a spare just laying around and would not charge me for the part and just one hour for the labor. I'm a first time customer and he's willing to do that for me, just cuz he noticed I seem down at the time. Long story short, alternator wasn't the problem and it would be too much to fix at the end of the day. So he suggested not go through with it. I just wanna show him my appreciation for what he did for me even though he didn't make a cent from me. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Thanks again brother. read more

My only regret is not bringing my 330i here earlier. It was a pleasure meeting Clement and getting is professional opinion regarding repairs. There was no cash grab tendencies and he was very honest and transparent. I am now in the market for a new BMW and SGV will definitely be my go to spot for maintenance! read more

Went here to get my car maintained, service is great, Clement is SUPER experienced mechanic. Price is alway honest and straight forward. Would recommending anyone with BMW go here. 5/5 read more

My car needed an oil change for a super long time and since my car was out of warranty, I needed to take it somewhere. After dragging my feet for a little bit, I finally found SGV Bimmer on Yelp. I called in the morning and made an appointment to bring it in for the same day, afternoon, which was great. I drove over on Saturday afternoon and met with Peter and Clement (the owner). They quoted the price for an oil change, which was super reasonable and told me they would be done in about 30 minutes, which was great! There is a lobby that has cold water and some snacks that you can have while you are waiting (I believe they also have free WiFi). After talking to the owner, we also decided on changing out the brake pad and doing an diagnostic, which would take a little longer. All of the service together were super reasonably priced. But, obviously, it would take a little longer, so I decided to wander out. There is a small shopping center with Ross, Starbucks, and a couple of other stores about 10 minute walk away. I spent some time at Starbucks and then came back where the car was done. SGV Bimmer was quick and easy. I enjoyed talking to everyone there, who treated us very well. I am definitely going to come back here for any other car needs. read more

I had a very disappointing experience at SGV Bimmer for my 2011 BMW 328i. Clement showed no patience and was extremely rude during our interaction. He refused service without giving any clear reason, which left me feeling disrespected and confused. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this shop. read more

Clement and team always do a great and honest job with my Bimmer! I only trust them for service (oil, coolant, break, etc) and performance modifications and have been going to them for years. Thank you as always! Professional and a great guy! read more

I have a 335i BMW 2012 twin turbo. Ive been struggling for years to find a mechanic that I can trust. Clemens knowledge of my car amazed me. He values customers and will work with you to get your car issues resolved. read more

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Clement definitely cares about his clients, and he knows BMWs. I relocated to Hacienda Heights from Pasadena and was looking for a new BMW shop nearby. After reading the reviews about SGV Bimmer, thought I would give them a try. So glad I did! I took my 2000 BMW Z3 for a power steering fluid leak repair. Clement lifted the car and actually showed me where the leak was occurring and explained what he was going to do. My old BMW shop never did this. My car was repaired, and he definitely went beyond on what was needed on my car. I found my new BMW shop! Would I recommend him to others? A definite YES! read more

In all honesty very fantastic shop. I went there knowing certain problems with the vehicle Clement was able to detect all those issues without even me telling him about it. Whether it was the accident or the little issues with the vehicle. Very professional very knowledgeable. He was able to complete what I needed and gave me a list of all the issues with the car. The cost is moderate as well I feel very happy and satisfied with the service that was performed. Thank you again Simon read more

SGV Bimmer - Is air fresheners smell amazing thank you Clement - Auto Repair Near Me - El Monte, California

I've been bringing my 2014 BMW 328i to SGV Bimmer for several years now, and with 145,000 miles, it still runs like new--thanks to their expertise and quality workmanship. I plan on keeping this car for at least another 10 years, and with SGV Bimmer's help, I know that's completely realistic. One thing I really appreciate about the owner is that he's an advisor, not a salesperson. I've never been pressured into purchasing anything unnecessary, but every recommendation I've followed has helped me avoid costly repairs down the road. Unfortunately, I've seen too many people run into major issues either because they didn't fully understand the importance of preventative maintenance or because the shop they trusted lacked the right experience. That's never been the case here. I always do my research before approving any work, and time and time again, I find SGV Bimmer's prices to be much lower than other shops--especially compared to the dealership. They provide honest assessments, fair pricing, and top-tier service, making it easier for someone like me, who isn't made of money, to keep my car running strong without breaking the bank. Even with my busy schedule, when I finally get around to my overdue oil changes or necessary repairs, I know I can trust SGV Bimmer to get the job done right, efficiently, and at the best price. I'm not here to convince anyone, but if you're looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy BMW shop, SGV Bimmer is the place to go. Just sharing my appreciation for a shop that continues to exceed expectations. read more

This is the place to bring your BMW for maintenance or repairs. Clement was a factory BMW mechanic before he opened his own shop. He was extremely knowledgeable on my e90. He diagnosed my coolant leak issue to a broken pipe and radiator leak. He saved me about $2K by having the radiator replaced at BMW under warranty and performed the balance of the maintenance himself. I am extremely happy at the quality of work and my e90 drives like new again. Highly recommended. read more

i freaking love sgv bimmer. idk ANYTHING about this car stuff guys okay but quality yeah 10/10 like the service UH YEAH always amazing. i went to them when my brake pad wore out. then i went again when my back windshield wiper broke. then i went again for an oil change. then i went again bc my coolant was looking into my engine (smth like that haha idk). then i went again to get my tires changed bc oops no more traction. n i'm going again soon cus i got sideswiped LOL funny stuff guys. it's affordable for what it is yeah (idk my dad pays) but clement is just in it for the love of the game. #clementcares read more

From the first inquiry call, I knew SGV Bimmer was the way to go. Clement was immediately knowledgeable about the issues with my F82 M4 and gave a very competitive, fair quote. When my vehicle arrived by tow truck, there was a small incident that resulted in a single tire being punctured. Clement immediately assured me that he would provide a free tire replacement. He and the team worked to install the new tire, 6 spark plugs, 6 fuel injectors, 2 engine air filters, an oil change, and coding - all done in about 4 hours. In addition, Clement also replaced bolts and rubber bushings that he found were missing in the engine bay, free of charge. My engine went from a drivetrain malfunction to driving like new again. He and the team are kind, hard workers, and are full of integrity. I look forward to bringing my car to them again for any future service needs. Thank you SGV Bimmer! read more

Drove up to sgv bimmer. First question he asked why are you bringing it here because i found this location closer to me. I read wonderful reviews. Never did i see or read anywhere that I had to make an appointment. I arrived and called both times with a horrible attitude and said to come back at 3. Took one look at my car and judged it. I was only taking it in for a oil change. Mind you i have the tire pressure light because I had just gotten my tire replaced and they broke a sensor. I have my engine light on and I know the problem. They denied the oil change because my car has alot of issue. Duhhh im bring it to a mechanic if my car had no issues I wouldn't be there . read more

Amazing service and quality of work. These are the guys to go to. I took my car to the dealer and they charged me ridiculous price I was recommended by a few people to bring the car here the service, value, integrity, quality and reliability that they had was amazing. Will not go anywhere else great shop. read more

After taking my 2012 BMW 328i to the dealer for a recall they notified me that I had a collapsed motor mount. My good friend referred me to Clement @ SGV BIMMER. He spoke very highly of him, told me that Clement is honest, trustworthy and has many years of experience with BMW's. As a female, taking my car in for service it's hard to know who to trust. Clement not only repaired my motor mount for 1/2 the price of the dealer but it actually came out less than his quote! He also pointed out that my radiator was leaking, this is something the dealer missed! My car could have overheated! He informed me that it is covered under a California warranty and can be fixed for free! He took care of it! Not only is Clement such a kind person, his attention to detail is exceptional and he really went beyond to make sure I was taken care of! He even noticed that my air vent was broken and my cup holder wouldn't pop out and he fixed both without asking for anything in return! Who does that?! Clement does that, that's who!!! In this day and age when everyone wants to price gouge and get away with doing less work, it's so refreshing to know there are still people out there like Clement! I felt very taken care of and I will be a loyal client to SGV BIMMER and I really feel like I have a new friend in Clement. read more

I've owned 2 BMW's in 15 years, and I'm in no means an expert but I've had my share of specialized mechanics and dealers. Believe the reviews, this place and Clement are the most honest help you'll find around. I found this business on Yelp and it was about an hour drive from my home, I was tired of my current tech giving me the run around so I took the drive. I called first and I was told to call back a few days later since they were so busy, I did call back a week later and they took my car in the next day. My car trunk was out, my car used a lot of oil, the sunroof would get stuck, reverse light out - I knew I'd be deep $$$ in and may be without a car for days. He told me what may be wrong as soon as he checked it out, and assured I'd get an estimate the same day. He saw I was struggling to find a ride back to work and he found a way to help me! That alone was the 5 star service for me! They sent an estimate with pictures within the next hour. Called me to check what I wanted to be done and what I didn't, they didn't push me to do. Clement gave his recommendations and explained thoroughly what caused the issues. They had my car the same evening! He showed me what was fixed step by step, answered all my questions and even helped me fix my Bluetooth connection as courtesy. He pointed out little extra things they did with no charge. Again, 5 star service! My drive back home was another hour, but worth the peace of mind as I drove my car feeling much smoother. Honest mechanics are hard to find, let alone one with a good sense of humor. This place is awesome! read more

I brought in my E46 ZHP for service. Right off the bat, Clement was able to spot several issues with my car. Clement and his crew are top notch! Great service, great quality and they get the job done fast. I was truly blown away by their knowledge and their honesty. They went above and beyond. Will definitely be coming back for years to come. Thanks SGV BIMMER! read more

Excellent repair shop don't waste money with the BMW dealer again you won't be sorry tell a fellow BMW owner you will not be disappointed

I found SGV Bimmer purely by accident. My air bag sensor notification light was on after I had my seats upholstered in Hollywood. I drove into the garage thinking this is only a one-off situation because I refused to go to the dealership to have the computer reset. Clement was upfront and honest about his price of service. When I walked into his waiting room; I was impressed by how organized he had it. He offered snacks, and beverages (both hot and cold). I waited patiently for him to finish my car and was looking for a nearby charging station to charge my car. When Clement came in, he said he noticed my car was running on almost empty and offered to charge it. I was elated! I am so happy with SGV Bimmer. Clement seem honest, responsive, and scheduling appointments is super easy. I'm happy to have found another option to the dealer. read more

Installed an Active Autowerke equal length catback exhaust for my 2021 M2 Competition here. They were able to complete the job in just an hour and a half! Clement is a great guy, and you can tell he is very enthusiastic about cars. Will be my go-to place for BMW servicing! read more

This message is for Clemen, Peter and LJ! Clemen has always been an exceptional mechanic for my BMW. I got to talk to Peter and LJ today and they were cool too! I had the seal from rear window coming out and went to see Clemen to see if I need to reseal it or not and Clemen honestly told me that I did not need to repair it because it is only for preventing air inflow for the noise. He finished the oil change for me today and thank you again! God bless SGV Bimmer - Clemen, Peter and LJ. Thank you for prioritizing clients' satisfaction! read more

Amazing service. Clement was thorough and detailed on the 50k service i had requested. I received an email that outlines the cost.

After having so many pleasant questions and answers from Clemen regarding my 2006 325i, I decided to take it to their shop for maintenance service. I'm very pleased the way it was handled professionally by LT and Clemen. The quality of work and knowledge of the bmw brand is outstanding. Highly recommended. Also, the shop is highly secured for safety reasons. Had a maintenance service 11/19/24. Checked all fluids brakes,etc. happy with the service again read more

We just drove 20 hours to Austin TX. It can't be done without SGV Bimmer's help! Check engine light is on the day before our trip. Made a call to them, they work on it right away. Thanks for their expertise, they found the problem right away! And they urged me to go fix at the dealership, since it is still under warranty. While I was driving to dealership, they sent what they found over to dealership. My car is serviced at the dealership as soon as I got there. Because SGV Bimmer has help set it up with them already. My car is ready the same day. SGV Bimmer didn't charge me anything for all these! Thank you SGV Bimmer! read more

Clement the owner is professional, honest, responsive and kind. Really glad I found him on Yelp after my old mechanic passed away. Needed someone who knows BMWs because I drive mom's old 1985 BMW. He did a great job. I also like that his waiting room is stocked with drinks and snacks for customers, which is really nice. Also, he speaks Cantonese too, since he's from Hong Kong. So even more customers he can communicate with when needed. Definitely my new go to mechanic when my old car has problems. read more

Look no further! I'm a returning customer and Clemen and the team are the best. They have excellent customer service. They respond really quickly whether over the phone or through Yelp. I dropped off the car on a Saturday at 9am for a Oil Filter Housing Gasket replacement and it was done in a few hours. They did a clean job and for a fair price. Thank you SGV Bimmer read more

Went to SGV Bimmers again, Clemen and his team are still fantastic. Very knowledeable and efficient. I would recommend SGV Bimmers to all.

We contacted SGV BIMMER right after getting a diagnostic test at BMW which estimated close to 5k in repairs (including $460 to simply diagnose). Clement, SGV BIMMER's owner, was honest and direct from the get-go. We informed him of what BMW was trying to charge, and he provided a quick estimate focusing on the main issues, rather than adding unnecessary repairs. He took our car in the same day and had it repaired in less than 24hrs. We paid a fraction of the cost and felt peace of mind knowing our car was in good hands, and properly fixed. Clement is extremely professional, honest, welcoming, and friendly. We love BMWs and will continue bringing our vehicles and referring our friends to him. Thank you, Clement! :) read more

SGV Bimmer - 2017 330E repaired by SGV BIMMER :) - Auto Repair Near Me - El Monte, California

Truly best of the best! Thank you Clement and Yelpers. I am so glad I made the extra drive to this shop. Since I plan to be doing some spirited driving in my M240i, I wanted to change the oil and filter prior to the computer's recommendation. Very happy to know SGV carries Liqui-Moly, made in Germany, the brand you see in F1 Racing. Great value on the price too! Clement is super professional, honest, courteous, knowledgeable, pleasant, and all around great guy. He's the positive energy guy that make you feel comfortable and welcome, and down to earth that you feel like having a beer with. Clement and SGV Bimmer deserve the highest compliment and recommendation! (pro tip: the shop is open on the posted hours. Just pull up to the gate -- which may be closed -- wait for a few seconds, and someone will open the gate). Cheers! read more
