Tomas fixed up my E39 cluster with dead pixels today. He was very professional and easy to talk to. I set an appointment with him over text. He even managed to fix the cluster in 30 minutes for me. I was honestly shocked and would honestly recommend him! He is very knowledge about the cars he works on and I would definitely come back for other services. Comparable to other dead led fixes in socal his prices are competitive. Go ahead trust him to do the job. 5/5 read more

The CID OBC display was pixelated so I had a friend try to "fix" it. Afterwards it wouldn't even light up. I sent it to Bavtek and it turns out that another cable was damaged during the attempted amateur repair as well as the pixel problem. Tomas was able to find and fix both problems and it's 100% now. Don't try to fix it yourself, send it to BavTek, relax, kick back and have a beer. Amazing skills! read more

As many others....I sent my BMW gauge pod to Tomas to repair the dreaded LCD dead pixel syndrome. Turn around time was SUPER quick. The pixel issue has been completely repaired and the added trim rings and orange needles give the car a much needed sportier look. Quality work by an enthusiast! Thanks Tomas! read more

BavTek - Auto Repair Near Me - Liberty Hill, Texas

Pkg brake was installed incorrectly by me Tomas was willing and able to fix and recode for $50 1/2 hr. Calling again for electric problem. Dealer wants 2 days...he will diagnos in 2 min! Recommend highly read more

My BMW screen had stopped working....Tomas was able to diagnose my problem and identify THE solution OVER THE PHONE....nobody does that, even the experts refuse to! I had earlier taken my car to other shops which had told me only the dealer could fix the problem. I was skeptical and after talking to Tomas I understood there was hope... Anyway anyone who can diagnose over the phone and be right and makes you save hundreds of dollars, deserves to be considered the the top of the tops... Last thing: Tomas went the extra miles by contacting a coding specialist to complete the programming of my radio and spent hours without extra charging me for it... Absolutely ABOVE AND BEYOND service. read more

Tomas has great communication! And is very efficient! He does quality work. I have the dreaded problem of no bass in my 2006 750li and all I had to do is send my logic 7 amp in and it was back to me within the same week! This repair is quality and fixed all the things that the manufacturer failed to do with the logic. They are infamous I'm going out. I did not want a buy a brand new one because it is upwards of 1000$+ and I would still fear of it happening again. I tried buying used and they just go out. Just get repaired the right way and all is good. Not to mention a 1 year warranty that is awesome!! Thank you sooo much , Tomas. I will be contacting you for any of my bmw needs that I am able to send to you. Tony K. 2018 read more

The 3-series BMW radio knob repair is a typical problem with the use of some cheap plastic parts on an otherwise terrific car (think of the bad sunroof design or the terrible plastic rear light modules!). The radio should be an issue for recall, but never will be. Dealers want you to replace the radio for want of a tiny plastic replacement part (at $500-700). Tomas provides the part with DIY instructions on Youtube, or offers the repairs with quick turn around. I had tried to repair the part myself with a very unsatisfactory glue solution. The replacement part is the right way to fix it. I opted for the complete service. The quick service, combined with a fair price, was excellent. We talked on the phone and then texted about the problems (I created some trouble with my glue mess and needed to replace some little bits), and I have my radio back like new. Fantastic service! read more

Tomas is the best! Great communication and very fast service. I tried to fix the dead pixels on my instrument cluster of my E39 but ended up breaking the most important gauge - the temp gauge. I finally decided to get the cluster fixed after the car was running again. Searched online and found his price to be the most cost effective. There was a local place in the Bay Area that I could have used but they were almost double the price. I contacted Tomas via text, got the info I needed, sent out the cluster for repair; the whole process from contact to receipt of repaired unit was under a week! :-) Highly recommended if you need to fix those annoying dead pixels of your E39. read more

I found this place, German Auto Recycling serendipitously while browsing DIY videos on YouTube on how to repair a BMW door lock mechanism. The other night I inserted my key into my door lock only to hear what sounded like I had just won a slot machine in Vegas, metal falling and flying everywhere, not good to hear being 3 hours away from Vegas! I attempted to figure out how to take care of this myself. I watched a YouTube video they had posted and was about to order the repair kit when up on the computer screen popped up a phone number in the 951 area code! Wow just down the street and to the left! I gave German Auto Recycling a call and explained my dilemma to Tomas, who stated that although it was very unusual to have the entire lock mechanism come flying out all at once he was up for the challenge! Wow! Who does that anymore? Tomas does; that is who! I asked when he was available and he said to come on down and he would squeeze me in! Wow! Who does that anymore? Tomas does; that is who! Tomas rebuilt the entire lock mechanism in about an hour. It now works better than it ever did! Great customer service and a more than fair price. Tomas repaired the lock mechanism my 2002 325i and it works perfectly. Words cannot express my gratitude and complete satisfaction I had with his professionalism, knowledge, and efficiency. Before you waste your time calling other people; save your time and energy and go with the pro ~ go with Tomas!!! I feel like I did win in Vegas that day and you will too!!! read more

This was my first time doing anything to my car myself, and they made it so easy! Every time I called , someone answered and was able to walk me through the process. I ordered the wrong part and he overnighted the correct one to me, no charge! This is the place to go for Bmw parts and advice! Their service made me a loyal customer. read more

Thomas is amazing. After bmw forgot to plug in my airbag for a recall they'd done I took it to Thomas and he quickly resolved the problem for me. Everyone who works in the shop is very kind. A while before this my boyfriend brought my car in because the wiring was bad and for a very fair price they replaced one of the fuses for the computer. They also provided us with two new computers to try on our other bmw to make sure one would work. Nothing but great service from them. read more

I was so lucky to find this shop, I stumbled across his shop when browsing DIY videos on you tube. I had been having trouble with my instrument cluster on my 2003 BMW X5, I was actually trying to figure out how to take it out myself. Saw that they were located locally and gave him a call. Tomas quoted me a price and I immediately made an appointment. Tomas rebuilt the whole thing in about one hour. Great customer service. More than fair price. Tomas was very friendly and helpful. He repaired the instrument cluster on my 2003 X5 and it works perfectly. Words cannot express the complete satisfaction I had with his professionalism, knowledge, and efficeincy. Muchas Gracias Tomas. read more

I cannot tell you how thankful and appreciative I am of Thomas. I have called 5 other repair shops INCLUDING BMW of riverside for an issue I'm having with my '98 328i. Thomas is the ONLY person willing to explain a couple solutions and give me straight answers on the best route to take. Once I have the parts I need I will most definitely take my car to these guys! read more

Had Issues with my 2001 E38 Sound System and Tomas was super helpful and actually took the time to listen to my Issues and helped solve them by going above and beyond. Thanks! read more

Great business that still believes in great customer service. I purchased a mirror for my 330xi and it was shipped same day! Received the mirror and had an issue with the auto-dim feature. Emailed Tomas and he called me the next day to discuss the issue. He was then happy to offer a replacement and shipped it again that same day and the second mirror worked like a charm. Overall a very pleasurable experience and will now only buy parts for my car from Tomas and German Auto Recycling. read more

I attempted to repair my own bmw e39 cluster for an 2002 530i and epically FAILED! I damaged three motor springs while trying to attempt the repair. BavTek came to the rescue, shipped them my cluster. I also had forgot to also ship them the dials that move in the cluster, called BavTek in regards they also covered that sympitelicly. Received my cluster in one business day. The cluster looks phenomenal and work came out perfect. Thank you BavTek for fast efficient service. I recommend this service to everyone that has pixel issues with there beloved bmw. read more

I was very apprehensive about the purchase due to the options that my BMW came with. I did not no the first thing about what type or what month it was built in 03, the months of production depends on what electrical options it comes with, this will differ from month to month drastically. They took the time to tell me where to get the info via txt, and at times phone call. I work overnight an I txt them at 1am and they answered with in 10mins. Their support team is amazing. They where the cheapest and the product works amazing. read more

Fixed my amp & ask unit on my 2008 BMW 750Li. Great service & fast returns being I'm in upstate New York. Thanks again man

They fixed a botched attempt at a self-repair on the lcd readout on the instrument cluster on my X5. They even fixed the calibration and the knobs that I screwed up at no extra cost. Saved me a ton of money on buying a new cluster and having it reprogrammed at the dealer. Well done. read more

Fixed my audio issue with my BMW in 30 minutes. Trustworthy, fast, and efficient. I highly recommend this company if you need an audio component for your Beamer read more

Tomas did a fantastic job fixing the pixel issues with my cluster and radio on my 2003 BMW 525iT E39 wagon. I drove up from San Diego and sat in his lobby doing some work while he fixed them both in an hour and half. I highly recommend BavTek...well worth the drive! read more

Spoke with Tomas describing my issue for my e39 2001 540i Manual and he knew exactly what was wrong with it, took me 10min to replace a ECU 30amp fuse and my car started right up! So much weight is off of my shoulders and I am so grateful for their help!! Definitely recommend German Auto Recycling, they saved me so much time and money, they are great!! :) read more

Very pleased that I chose BavTek to repair the LCD on my E53 (2003 X5). Thomas is a pro and the price was unbeatable. He took the time to give me some tips as this vehicle was picked up used not too long ago. Will check with Thomas first for recommendations on all repairs. read more

I had a great experience getting my BMW's radio repaired here. The dealership wanted $175 to just look at the radio, and said it would probably cost me about $700 when all said and done. Took it here, and got my radio fixed within 30 minutes, for $150. Tomas, the owner, was great to deal with, very professional, and easy to get in touch with. Highly recommended! read more

Tomas is hella good guy. Honest, friendly and an helpful guy. I purchased e46 sport seats from him. He not just gave me a great deal but also went ahead and helped me install them on my car. he's got tones of stuff for other bimmers too. he will surely give you a good deal - i am pretty sure. Definitely recommended. way to go T! read more

I've been procrastinating having the instrument panel on my X5 done for quite some time, and have read and watched way too many videos as I considered doing it myself (I do a lot of things myself and "nobody ever does it right anyway" :) and I end up having to do it over to fix it!). Long ago I bookmarked Tomas' page, just in case I messed this up and needed to be bailed out (assuming I even tried to fix it, which I didn't!)! Yesterday I decided that since I had to drive north and close to Tomas I decided to call and see if he would take my cluster in in the morning and let me go do my business up north and then pick it back up on my way back down. I really did not want to do it myself, but I also had little hope that this scenario would work out with such short notice. Tomas did not hesitate and said "sure, I don't know why that wouldn't work". What??!! One day's notice and he he says he can do it; impossible-no one does that anymore. So I drive up this morning and meet Tomas (very cool guy, BTW) and he shakes my hand, takes my cluster and says "see you in a couple of hours". I go do business, come back down and he has it finished. Not only is it done, it is perfect! So there has to be a catch, right? In fact, as I think back I remember that I did not ask him how much it would cost to have the work done, let alone how much it would be for such quick turnaround: I can see where this is going! He wipes the cluster down one last time and gives me a price LESS than what I was expecting! How can that be?! Bottom line: I never should have waited so long to have this done, I never should have expected it to be anything less than perfect, and I never should have doubted Tomas! Ten stars and no hesitation recommending Tomas; I am 140% happy to have this back and working exactly as it should. Thank you Tomas; you have a customer and referral source for life! read more

I had the dreaded pixilation cluster display problem for awhile and as apprehensive as I was to repair it myself, btw, I do most repairs on my 7 Sporty Shorty but this... NO! Came to Thomas' shop and in about an hour he had it done. Very knowledgeable in the bimmer automotive field. Great guy to work with, hooked me up with info on my other lil issue my 7 needs and I will definitely be back. Old time customer service at it's best, my kind of business man! read more
