Because my OBD2 port is occupied by a JB4 (installed through them too), they had to custom hardwire the entire gauge and tap the fuel line for my ethanol sensor. Since the standard P3 tap doesn't fit the 2.5T, Tyler engineered a flawless solution by removing the throttle body/charge pipe to install a custom spacer fitting. The plumbing through the firewall and dashboard is very clean, and the car looks entirely OEM. I'm fortunate enough to live near Pacific German, cause they are hands down one of the best places to go for your Audi/VW.

It had some work done for the engine cam covers and of course regular maintenance, but the suspension bushings that Shawn recommended to fix ASAP 9 years ago are still holding up great. How does this logically make sense? Here is the quote from Shawn at the time (2017): "I'm glad you have been able to get a year of use with these bushings. Continue to have them inspected as you have been and maybe you'll get another year out of them! Or maybe you'll just have to replace your tires or control arms just a little sooner than you should have..." That is some fear-inducing threat. Seriously guys. Take my word for it. Stay away.

I will continue to share his business with friends whenever I can. Thank you so much Brian !

I'd previously always gone to dealerships in past for service cause for some reason I had in my…read moremind that it was better? But after repeat terrible, dishonest, scammy/slimy-feeling experiences at local dealerships- I decided it was time to look elsewhere for service. I found Mesman Motors online and saw the great reviews and decided to give it a try! So glad I did- they were very transparent about pricing- the price quoted on the initial phone call was the same price we paid for the service and on top of that, they had a 10% first time customer discount, which was greatly appreciated! It's also nice that it's walking distance to a lot of local food/drink businesses- can walk over to Kona Loa for a coffee during the service. We definitely plan to be back in future for our future service needs!

The team here were quick, responsive, had great customer service and was an all around great experience. So when it was my time for my car to get an oil change, even though I live in the SGV, I knew I had to bring my car here. They had speedy wifi so I could get work done while waiting for my car. Al and the entire staff here are great all around and don't peer pressure you to do anything that your car doesn't actually need. I will be continuing to bring my car here and hope they are able to expand closer to me soon! Highly recommend you bring your German cars here.

I wasn't charged anything, the error was cleared, and I picked up my car that day and left.

I recently brought my Mercedes in after my windshield shattered and my insurance only wanted to cover an aftermarket part. The team here made sure I got the genuine dealership windshield instead, handled everything so smoothly, and didn't push any unnecessary charges or services on me. I dropped my car off at 10 AM on a Thursday and they had me back on the road by 2 PM, so fast and efficient, even with having to order the part! The peace of mind knowing they're honest and truly female-friendly means everything. I can trust them completely and never worry about being upcharged or misled. Highly recommend to anyone, but especially to any woman who wants to know their car is in good hands with people who genuinely care and do the right thing.
