    When it comes to taking care of my BMW I want the best. I've had my car with Bavarian several times, for major servicing and maintenance work. I appreciate that they work with bmw and refer back to the factory warrantee if at all possible. Bavarian Is a family run business that is invested in BMW culture. The shop has a few pretty cool cars of their own and a clients that bring Porsche's, Range Rover and Ferrari of course BMWs. I Bring my E92 M3 here for anything I need taken care of. They're genuine people who give you a great deal. I highly recommend this place and will continue to give them my business. I recommend coming here.

    My 2008 750i got its transmission serviced here. Pedro was extremely knowledgeable. He has direct training from ZF engineers and was taught the correct way when servicing your transmission. Don't listen to BMW dealerships as they have don't give you the right advice. For example BMW will tell you the tranny fluid is lifetime but interestingly enough ZF recommendeds changing the fluid approx every 50k miles on their own website. Pedro also took pics of the entire project from start to finish. If anyone is interested you can email me at junaiduddin3636@gmail.com

    Thanks guys for servicing my BMW's

    I took my BMW to Bavarian garage for the first time I was referred by a friend .. I have been to Shelly BMW McKenna BMW and Monrovia BMW I always had decent service at these dealers but there was always something wrong.. I have owned several BMWs in the last 10 years And every time I took my car to the dealer something came back wrong or they forgot to program something or they forgot to put something back .. So When I was referred to Bavarian garage I was crossing my fingers that this independent shop would be different and better then the dealer.. It sure was :) I was introduced to Pedro the owner and we had a 20 minute conversation about cars and BMW mainly about my cars... The dude is very knowledgeable and very patient .. With that alone I was very impressed and within 10 minutes of our conversation i decided I was going to do business with them ! He introduced me to his head technician Nick .. He also told me what he was going to do and how to fix my issues with my cars .. These dudes are freaking cool and very patient .. They replaced several parts that my car needed.. Nick took the time to show me what exactly was wrong with my car The old parts were literally falling apart right in front of me .. Old motor mounts old brake sensors hoses belts etc etc etc .. I told him to fix everything .. He recommended more work on top of that but he justified why he was recommending more work on top of that and took the time to show me exactly how it's not working properly.. Again I was very impressed with these dudes .. I'm a very picky person and I want to see what's wrong with my car .. That's my style that's the way I'm programmed .. These guys took the time to show me what's going on with my car not just tell me ! I would highly recommend this place to anybody that's looking for a honest and knowledgeable shop And their prices are extremely fair .. That's another area that I was very impressed with.. I divorced Shelly BMW and McKenna BMW It's OVER !!! Bavarian garage is my new shop for all my cars ..

    All finished up at Bavarian garage.

    My car needed both low beams replaced, an oil change and a tune up. Matt was quick to provide me…read morewith a quote that was reasonable. Scheduling the appointment was easy. Brought my car in, went over some paperwork and was told I'd be contacted once the inspection was complete. Sure enough Matt called me to let me know there were some items found during inspection and which ones needed to be addressed right away. After agreeing to the updated quote they got to work. I came back to the shop prior to being told my car was ready, and I think there may have been a delay in getting parts needed (dropped the car off at 9am, wasn't done until 4pm). Other than that, the quoted price is what I paid, there wasn't any pushing to buy a service that wasn't needed. I will definitely be bringing my car back for the additional work needed.

    I requested a quote through Yelp and my request was sent to multiple auto shops. I chose this…read morecompany based on location and called ahead to confirm they could do more than just read basic codes. I had already done my own diagnostics and knew the car was running rich. I had ruled out the upstream O2 sensor, catalytic converter (both new), MAP sensor, and fuel injectors. I explained all of this to Matt before bringing the car in. He assured me they could perform deeper diagnostics with their equipment. After dropping off the car, Matt called and told me they had "confirmed" exactly what I had already told them, and that the next step would be pulling spark plugs--for an additional fee. At that point, I decided to go elsewhere. What I don't understand is why I was still charged the full $85 diagnostic fee, plus a $4 hazardous materials fee and $3 shop supply fee. Plugging a car into a diagnostic scanner does not generate any hazardous waste--no fluids are drained, no chemicals are used, and no parts are replaced. There's nothing about a basic scan that would justify a hazardous materials charge. That kind of fee typically applies when disposing of things like oil, coolant, or other regulated waste, none of which occurred here. In the end, I paid $92, wasted time and gas, and learned nothing new. The most concerning part was Matt admitting he didn't even know spark plugs would need to be checked as part of further diagnosis.

    Our family's Ford Explorer required a water pump replacement…read more I visited several local auto shops to obtain quotes and was shocked, disappointed, and discouraged at the prices I was being quoted for the work my vehicle required ($5,000-$7,500) Shame on me for not reading Yelp reviews before wasting my time visiting other auto shops. I read the many positive reviews for Hye-Tech Auto Repair and decided to visit them. Upon entering, I was greeted by John (owner) with a friendly, "Welcome, how may I help you?" I explained that my Ford Explorer needed a new water pump and a few other items that other auto shops had advised me would require repair or replacement. While John looked up a few items on the computer to provide me with a quote, he introduced me to his son, Harry, who happened to be in the office. Thirty seconds later, John provided a quote that was $3,500-$4,000 less than the other shops. I could not believe it. John explained that he makes his living and succeeds in his business through repeat customers, and he does not believe in gouging customers for every last penny. He also shared that when he retires, his son Harry will take over the business, and he wants to leave Harry with a solid foundation of loyal repeat customers. It was then that I knew I could trust John and his son Harry. John went on to explain that replacing the water pump on a Ford Explorer was a 10-12 hour job, as it was an internal pump requiring numerous engine parts to be removed to reach it. This was the same thing all the other shops advised me. John suggested that I leave my vehicle, and he would perform a full inspection of the engine and contact me before doing anything to it. I agreed and left my vehicle. The following day, I was contacted by John, who advised me that the water pump did indeed need to be replaced, as it was the source of the constant leaks of the water coolant. I left my vehicle in John's shop for three days. During this time, John or his son, Harry, contacted me numerous times to keep me updated on the progress of my vehicle and also to point out that mechanics had discovered two or three very inexpensive items (under $50.00) which they recommended replacing, which I agreed to have done. All in all, I was and am extremely impressed and satisfied with everything about this shop. I spent much less money to have five different issues repaired on my vehicle at Hye-Tech than what I was quoted to replace my water pump alone by every single shop I visited prior to coming to Hye-Tech. John and Harry are very friendly, honest, and trustworthy. They are also very knowledgeable and experienced, and they offer GREAT customer service and communication. This is my new go-to shop for any issues involving our family vehicles. Thank you, Hye-Tech Auto Repair, for a very positive experience.

    I opened a Yelp project to try to get my transmission serviced. The dealership wanted to charge me…read more$1300 for this service. Yelp projects are one of the best things I've ever experienced. It's nice to see you can get quotes at the touch of a button on your phone. This morning, I had time off, so I headed in to get my service done. I did not have an appointment and that did not seem to matter. I arrived first thing in the morning at 8 AM and ask if the service could be done. Harry was an exceptional young man, he took me in with no problems, no questions. He said they could do it this morning. I told him I would have to wait. He had no problem with that either. Prior to bring in the car in this morning, as I said, I used a yelp project and had several people reach out and give me quotes. After looking at all the yelp reviews I decided to give this place a try. I am super happy that I did. This place is a hidden gem, excellence, service, quality, and value for what you receive. There are not very many shops where you could feel comfortable and put your trust in them. As I spent time in the lobby, I was able to see customer service on the phone and customer service entering the facility. Every customer that walked in, seem satisfied and was treated with dignity and respect. I highly recommend this place if you have any automotive questions whatsoever.

I…read moredropped it off after hours, left the key, and asked them to change the oil, check the brakes, and go over the entire car to make sure it was safe to drive. When I called the next morning, they had already gotten started. The oil change was done, they told me the brakes were in perfect condition, and that the car overall was in excellent shape. The only thing they recommended was new windshield wipers. I truly felt they were extremely honest, which is hard to find these days. They could have easily suggested unnecessary repairs, but they didn't--and that says everything about their integrity. Everyone there is so friendly, and I've taken other cars to them in the past with nothing but great experiences every time. I wouldn't trust another mechanic more than Brian Woods Automotive. Keep up the great work--you guys are the best!

He did give me an idea of what the cost would be but stated that the dealerships recommendation to have the bushing replaced was not yet needed. He also told me what to look for or hear that would be signs of when it would need to be repaired. This saved my $1500 for the time being. Although I may need to have this done in the future I feel confident this is the place I will come. Honest service is great.

I gave it a shot and I don't regret it. He was very honest and prices were very comparable to Patrick's. He was also very quick. I got an oil change, changed my brakes, and air filter. (These are all things I came to get done, not tricked into getting serviced) I liked that he gave me options with no judgement. Also had warrantee with my brakes. I would come back again.

    To get straight to the point, this is an honest auto repair shop…read more I had the front and rear brake pads replaced and got a synthetic oil change. There was an oil leak coming from the oil filter area. The mechanic at USA Auto Service told me that the previous shop I used likely changed only the oil without replacing the filter. If a filter is reused without being replaced, it may not function properly and can cause leaks. The filter was very dirty. Please check the photo. Normally, you trust a shop and leave your car with them. But I was completely scammed. I'm planning to take my wife's car there for an inspection soon as well. Previously, my wife had an oil change at a dealer shop in West Covina, and after just one month, the oil started leaking. They kept contacting us to sell the car. Honestly, it's hard to find a trustworthy repair shop. It feels like many shops only see customers as money. Personally, I highly recommend USA Auto Service. At USA Auto Service, I was able to stand next to the car and check everything myself, and they explained everything in detail. Their prices are lower compared to other places, and they still use good-quality parts. It's been a long time since I found such an honest repair shop, and I was able to receive service without any worries.
