Found this place on yelp. I didn't want to drive to my regular spot in Torrance which would've required a lot of time and money. My brake lights were ALL out. Thought it was serious. Owen was very honest about my options and personable. Easy to talk to and was always smiling. Had my car ready within an hour. Would come here again. read more

Six Stars! I took my aging Benz in for service and one again got the 6 star treatment. I needed new valve cover gaskets and power steering service. When I went to pick up my car Owen told me it wasn't as much work as he originally estimated and hat reduced the labor charges down one hour. Volunteering to give money back??!!!And on my way home I realized that the pesky notification on the dash reminding me to replace a tail light was not reminding me any more, which means Owen took care of it - didn't even mention it. After he gave money back for the service I ordered, I got extra service for free. Who are these guys?! It might have only been a $3 bulb, and free installation, bit most places would have wanted $10 for the bulb and then something extra to install it. At Ultimate Autohaus this kind of service is the rule, not the exception. read more

Awesome Service! I agree with the adjectives used on the Yelp reviews to describe Owen... Great Mechanic, Honest, Trustworthy. Owen has saved me a lot of money throughout the years. He's worked on my Benz and Beemer and has always been upfront with parts, service and labor costs and always on point with his recommendations. read more

Ultimate Autohaus has a business practice of being straight forward and truthful. They won't try to change anything unless there are check engine lights or warnings. The past guy I had in Arizona seemed to try to get any dollar he can. It is hard to find a good and honest mechanic these days. The only thing that doesn't make this a 5 star is that they don't deal with buying OEM parts to help fix issues. read more

The guy in charge wanted to take my whole car apart just to change a headlight!! I would recommend checking for your service elsewhere. That's what I did and saved my money and time. read more

Did fine job oil changing my mini! Even told me rats were eating my material in some part of my engine bay that the DEALER didn't even bring up. Solid place, honest and friendly. read more

Brought my wife's 1973 VW Westfalia that was having carburetor issues. They assessed and when it was beyond their expertise referred me to a great carburetor shop that was able to fix the issue. They didn't even charge me for their assessment and time. Had a great conversation with one of the owners, who showed me an amazing race car he had in the back. Friendly, honest service. Took the time with me even when I could tell they were super busy. read more

Love this place! Honest, hard working and great customer service! Becky at the front desk is always so friendly and helpful and Owen and his team are amazing! read more

A great local place with a mission to reach customer satisfaction and happiness. I brought my 10year old VW Passat to them with a coolant leak and a few other minor problems. They fixed only the things that needed fixing that I authorized. They never tried to persuade or guilt-trip me to do any other repairs or 'maintenance'. In fact, I asked about replacing the timing belt (15k miles ahead of schedule) and they actually steered me away from it becuase it was too soon. They understand that, for most of us, cars are a utility thing and there is no sence in spending more money than needed to keep a car running, reliable and safe. There is no point in them trying to oversell services or repairs that are not absolutely mandatory. It wastes their time, and insults us as customers. I interacted directly with the co-owner, Owen, he gave me the best service and respect I could have asked for. I've had good experience at the VW dealer, but Ultimate Auto house is much more convinient and a better value. They even gave me a voucher for a free carwash!! I am a customer for life! read more

I meant to leave a review from my last recent visit for an A/C repair on my recently purchased 2006 VW Passat 2.0T but didn't have time so now I am trying to combine reviews with today's visit. Just a few months after owning this used car, the A/C went out. Instinctively I was scared to death about a potential huge repair bill. Owen was very upfront about his necessary mark up on the new compressor part, and gave me a reasonable estimate. During the repair, not only did he fix the A/C problem, but also identified a missing oil plug which was responsible by the last oil change place I visited a month ago. Had I been driving further without it, it would have caused a major damage to my engine. Owen and his team went extra miles to make sure my Passat was in good condition, proactively. On the A/C repair, it is blowing nice cold air since then and I know I have easily saved 40~50% of what I would've paid to a dealer. Yesterday, my Passat all the sudden was running harsh with an engine check light on. Having another faint of heart encounter, I took my car to Owen this morning, worried about possible major bill..He did everything to accommodate his already busy schedule for my sudden, last minute visit. And gave me a very honest repair bill, replacing the failed ignition coil causing a misfire on one of the cylinders. Without their honesty and integrity, one could've been easily misled of having fuel pump / control module problems etc, etc - you get an idea..I really love these guys..Owen, Robert, Becky, and all of you..You guys never let me down and always being very straight, honest, and accommodating..You guys are the main reason why I am NOT to afraid of buying used German cars. Because, you guys deliver dependable quality repairs without a non-sense outrageous repair bills. So thank you, and God bless. Readers, you will not be disappointed with their service, believe me, And no, I am NOT a paid spokesperson for them, but a very happy AT-WILL customer. Thanks for reading this review.

Owen and the boys always take care of our families cars. Never have I found a mechanical team that I trust more. They recently did my front brakes, oil change, and looked into my check engine light. Any mechanic could tell you "it's your alternator" and charge you your left leg. Nope! Not these guys, all it was was a loose gas cap and on my way. Thank you so much for being friendly and trustworthy. EAD Becky! read more

I laughed for a good half a block after driving my newly fixed 2000 benz e320 off their lot. Am I crazy? Maybe. Also crazy is the amount of time and money I've wasted with other mechanics trying to fix the issue, that turned out to be neither costly nor time consuming to fix. Also, Owen and Becky are just a joy. Thanks for being a source of smiles in the world. Don't waste another dollar or moment, go to ultimate autohaus. read more

Owen, has always taken care of the import cars I've owned. Very professional and quality work.

I had a warning light come on in my dash in my 2006 330. Since I work long days I had my wife take it in. I was waiting all day by my phone to get the call that my muffler bearings were bad and the flux capacitor wasnt at full capacity. Instead she called to say the car it just needed a brake fluid flush and everthing else was fine. Out the door for less than $200 including a diagnostic that my old shop charged $120 for. This is now my go to shop. read more

The other reviews say it all. Thank you Owen, family and team for your help and honest service. I finally found a trustworthy place to bring my 2002 VW Eurovan. I had tie rods and ball joints replaced at a very reasonable price compared to two other places. One a dealer and the other a tire service chain. I look forward to future work with a great family owned shop, thanks again. read more

These guys had the cheapest price in town and even gave me a free oil change !? After the dealership tried to charge me over 2k for a starter and telling me I needed a new battery, these guys did it for less than half that price !!! and told me my battery was fine and just charged it up for me. I would Recommend this place over any other shop around read more

We love Ultimate Autohaus! I just read a review that the person was upset because they couldn't get their car fixed on demand....Becky and Owen are honest and will tell you that ahead of time instead of empty promises or leaving you without a car for an extended amount of time! They have always taken very good care of our needs! read more

This is my "go to" place! I've been coming here for over 5 years, and Owen has consistently been upfront and honest. I don't live in the area, but still commute to see him for all my vehicle needs. I 100% trust him with my mercedes and will always go to him. read more

Owen is the kindest and mot honest person on earth

'02 BMW 325i with a couple of dash warning lights. Owen and his team were able to diagnose, reset, and have me back on the road without any unnecessary expenditures. Been here once before and also had an honest assessment and repair work at that time. Definitely worthy of 5 stars. read more

Definitely appreciate Owen and his team. Took my 2014 Mercedes ML550 to him for a non-working tail gate. He spent the day trouble shooting the problem, and ultimately fixed the the tail gate free of charge. Not only is he reasonable and honest with his work, he was able to cut me a break when I least expected it. read more

Needed brake pads.Looked up German car repair on Yelp.This business stood out because of the reviews. ..These guys are AWESOME! I am happy with the professionalism and friendliness and honesty. .Will return for my routine maintenance for my Audi! Owen let me know what needs to be done and when, what could wait and what I should do right now! AN asset to the Yelp community read more

I never really bother with Yelp reviews but this is one place every BMW/Benz owner should know about. Why? Because of this guy named Owen. He's one the most honest people you'll ever meet and has been upfront about every problem that I had with my problematic e39. He charges you a better price than the dealer, gives you the rundown of what's going on, and gives you an honest opinion about everything. Did I tell you that he's honest? Seriously, he's a benevolent wizard that will somewhat ease the pains of owning a German car. You will save time, money, and perhaps the remnants of your sanity if you come here. read more

The lock on my BMW broke last week, the only way I could get into the car involved opening the trunk, folding down the back seats, and crawling through so I went to Ultimate Autohaus at my brother's suggestion. After spending a fair amount of time talking to Owen, the owner, about my problem and a few other minor faults my car had, I could see why my brother insisted. Owen didn't beat around the bush at all, he was straightforward and clear in everything he said, most of which consisted of his professional opinion and some anecdotal experience. As for his work, my brother puts it as, "Same service as the dealership for a lot less money." They deal exclusively in German cars, which makes them specialized experts. The fact that they're honest mechanics is a huge bonus. I definitely recommend this place! read more

On a recommendation from a friend I took my recently purchased used C230 Kompressor in for a front brake job. I thought it was a Sport model so Owen gave me an estimate based on the information I gave him. A couple hours later Owen called and said after looking at the brakes and running the VIN I didn't have a Sport so the brake job would be....wait for it.............. $60 less. LESS??!! I would have never have know the difference had he not told me. Owen is as honest and reputable as they come and all his 5 star ratings on Yelp prove it to be true. I'll never take my car anywhere else. Thank you Owen!! read more

Owen is great at what he does! I wouldn't trust my BMWs with anyone else. My wife bought a 2008 BMW 528i with VERY low mileage four years ago from Carmax. The car has an extended warranty. Ever since we had the car, it's had a vibration you can feel in the cabin. I took it to Shelly BMW, since I figured the repair would be covered under the warranty. They said it was the engine mounts. They replaced all of them. The vibration was still there. Every time I would complain about the vibration, they would either tell me that it's normal or they can't duplicate the problem. My wife tolerated the vibration for 4 years until she couldn't take it anymore. By now, the vibration was stronger where you could feel it in your ears. She would get nauseous every time she drove her car. She wanted to sell the car. The car is in excellent condition, except for the vibration that no one could fix. The last time I took it to Shelly BMW, they said they figured out the problem. They said the repair isn't covered by the warranty. It was going to cost $750 to replace an old exhaust vibration dampener with an updated one. If I was going to have to pay for the repair, I'd rather give my business to Owen. He's done excellent work on my BMW 645Ci. He read through the dealership's explanation and solution for the problem. He plugged in his computer to the car and spent less than five minutes. He told me to drive around the block to see if the vibration was gone. THE VIBRATION WAS GONE!!! He saved me $750 on a repair that probably would not have fixed the problem. When I got back to the shop, Owen said it was FREE! We suffered through that vibration for 4 years and almost got rid of the car so I was willing to pay him for fixing the problem. He wouldn't take my money. Owen is a good honest guy. read more

Owen is the best mechanic I've ever dealt with. He is so honest. I recommend this shop and Owen to everyone!!! Thanks Owen for saving me money and saving my ML320 for as long as you did. read more

Owen rocks. I know my car isn't his favorite to work on since it always challenges him, but he always helps me out. I wish he was open on the weekends and was closer to where I live...those would be my only complaints, but nothing I can't get over. Everyone at the shop is friendly and helpful and will refer him to anyone I know who needs work done on their cars. read more

Owen is awesome. Oil changes for my 3 series $70. The dealer wanted to charge me $150! Just had my xenon headlight changed for $100. Just read the reviews on yelp and decided to give him a shot and so far so good. read more

Owen the owner is a very nice guy and he is the most reasonable price wise that you will find.

The best and most honest mechanic in my area. My Mercedes dealer said I needed a full service (brakes, filter, system flush, etc.) and priced it at $1200. I went to Owen (owner of this listing) for a second opinion. He checked it out for free and advised me that my car wouldn't need that type of service for at least another year. We take all of our cars to Owen whenever we need service. Between them, he's saved me thousands of dollars. His rare mix of honesty, quality of service, and great personality secured my return. I love how he puts my interests first. Thank you so much, Owen. read more

Having a Mercedes can be a blessing and a nightmare all at the same time. Thankfully i found this wonderful autoshop that is honest, reasonably priced, and Owen is also awesome. I agree with all the positive reviews this is a safe place for your car. read more

Owen was upfront and honest with me for required work on my VW Jetta. He replaced my timing belt and serviced my coolant system. His work is solid and proper. His pricing was very competitive, and his customer service puts him in a class of mechanics not often found. I'd recommend his business and auto mechanic skills to anyone searching for good honest auto mechanic work. read more

I've been taking all of my MBs to Owen for some time. Owen is fantastic. His prices are a lot cheaper than the dealer and his knowledge is better than the dealer mechanic. He was able to fix some ongoing issues I've had after taking it in to the dealer and for a lot cheaper. I definitely recommend him. I usually don't write many reviews, but I write reviews for those who I think deserve it. He is a very honest mechanic and never tries to have you do something you don't need. I wanted to get a service done on my car, but he tells me I still have some time left before I had to do it. Other dealers would've pushed me to do it, but Owen said to hold off until I needed it. read more

I can't recommend Autohaus highly enough I needed a new rear view mirror for my BMW which would have cost $600. The owner,Owen, went the extra mile for me and actually researched where I could find a cheaper mirror He found one on eBay for $100. The people are always courteous and do a great job of explaining the work being done. Thanks Owen!!!! read more

It's not often you find an honest mechanic. Genuine and fair. Owen has become a great friend. Appreciate his authenticity.

Had my 09 328i in for replacement of brake pads today. Dealt with Owen, who apparently from the reviews is the owner. Couldn't have been happier with the service and the price. Much cheaper and easier to deal with than Long Beach BMW. Car was finished in the time promised. read more

Friendly, honest, speedy! Came in for a routine oil change and everything went great. I'll be back :)

Owen is the only mechanic that's ever laid hands on my car, it's a 1998 BMW 740i and it runs like a top. Great service and honest fair pricing! read more

just had the 90K mile service on my BMW performed. Owen and Robert once again has taken great care of my car and will continue to do so. I defenitely recommend UA to anyone looking for a trustworthy/knowledgable shop. I drive 25 miles to get here and drive by at least 5 BMW specific independent shop along the way. I've researched it. Again, just want to say 'thank you and keep up the great work'. read more
