The place for Bimmer service - this teams knowledge base is second to none. I have been very satisfied with their work on everything from simple maintenance to the performance upgrades Jim and Brian have done, while Tanner does an excellent job of communicating the timeline, scope of work and answering my many questions.

Fast and thorough service. Very knowledgeable in recommending further service that may be needed. Not a pushy up sale but shows a genuine concern for their customers and their cars. Service: Oil change

Report
I recently purchased a German vehicle and I was in the market for a mechanic that specialized in German vehicles. Without thoroughly researching reviews (my mistake), I found German Auto Service. Who advertised a $65 oil change online, but "because Biden is in office oil prices are up" which means they forgot how to update their Google advertising (that can be updated in real time within 3 minutes).
Unfortunately their lazy, (and intentional) negligence now results in a $98 surprise for the customer, but only after they've scheduled the appointment and have had their car serviced. Deceptive advertising is no way to start a lasting business relationship which is what I was looking to do with my new car. There is no reason they could not have informed me of the new price beforehand and really no excuse for them to not have updated or removed the ad from their Google advertising account. They just lost my business for the life of my new car over $33. A MONTH LATER AND THE "OUTDATED" AD THAT THEY WOULD NOT HONOR IS STILL UP. SAFE TO CALL THEM LAIRS AT THIS POINT.

Im giving them a 4 star right now, this will be my 3rd visit with German Auto and Tanner has looked out for me so. I can't complain about the service there. My e90 is a lemon so any of the errors was definitely not the fault of mine or German Autos, the e90 is there for a complete engine swap so this should put a stop to future issues and its going to have a 2yr warranty. I'm nervous about the final bill as I'm not rich I had to lean on the help of Hardship funding through my job which took care of the deposit for the motor. But all in all German Auto is a great shop in my book, I recommend seeing Tanner but everybody there Ive met has been friendly!
