I give them a zero. Don't waste your time with these guys. Overpriced and under deliver. Charge me…read moreover $400 in labor for new brakes and resurfacing rotors. Parts were less than $200. My brakes still sqeek when I back up the car. Fast talkers. One and done. Never going back.

Great service I will be back....... this is what Gary wrote when he asked me to write a review. He…read moreasked me for my phone to get to the link. He wrote that as he was "helping" me get to the site. This is false! This is my review I wrote on MR. MUFFLER Google review... 9/17: Got my car repaired there this weekend. I shall see how it holds up. Scary after looking at some of these reviews and knowing they enter a review for you. I'll see in a few days, weeks, months how things hold up. But I see from reviews they do a lot of price gouging. I'll call around to see the cost for my repair to see if I got hoodwinked. Update 9/28: I am at a different shop right now about my car. They said they would have charged $800 less than Mr. MUFFLER. And Mr MUFFLER spray painted the exhaust pipe under my car as well as left weld stuff under the car. I have pictures. They have high ratings cause they enter their own reviews. They left the cap to my headlight on the transmission. They left the break cap off but why. They didn't need to do ANYTHING with my break liquid. Call BBB, sate of mi attorneys general office, corporate office and the news. Gary said they spray painted the pipes so they don't rust. Ummmm.

These guys make me actually LOOK FORWARD to getting work done on my car, no joke. They are…read moreextremely likable, which is weird in a mechanic, right? Of course, they have all the other chops, too. Here's the skinny: -EXTREMELY knowledgable on foreign collectibles AND everyday drivers. -Can do everything the BMW dealer can, at a fraction of the price per hour -Real human beings to interact with regarding scheduling, pricing, and service. They love cars and they love making owners happy. No fancy shmancy cappuccino / bagel station to recover costs on. (ahem, BMW DEALERS) -They work on an assortment of collectible "weekend" cars so there's always some eye candy to check out while you wait. -Pricing can't be beat -Extremely honest. They always show you exactly what needed to be done, and are good at coaching you through any decisions needed. -They will work to get you in and out at a time convenient for you. Despite being 30 miles away from us, these guys have been the exclusive shop for our '96 Volkswagen Cabrio and our '04 BMW X3 since we moved to Michigan. In fact, I don't think I would still own a BMW if I didn't have these guys to work on it. :)

Automotive Techniques was our go to service provider for our European vehicles for a number of…read moreyears. Dave was our primary, and only contact, and he certainly ran the shop and specifically the front office. Results were typically very good. For myself, I recommended Automotive Techniques several times. After not requiring their services for a few years, I returned last year with my son's car. To my surprise, Dave was not there. In fact, no one was at the front desk. I had to find someone in the back room where 2-3 folks were watching TV. I asked, "Is Dave here?". The response was, "Dave is gone" (with a chuckle). Turns out, the gentlemen who provided an update was the owner - someone I had not met for the 15 years. "Finding" someone in the shop became the standard, as no one sat at the front desk. Moreover, it later seemed there were limited customers coming in. Which, I later did not find surprising at all. This was start of an amazingly frustrating experience which was supposed to start with a simple diagnosis of a power failure problem. Front desk was piled with paper and in disarray. Looking back to the rear office - same. Before Dave left, they switched to a new system to run the shop service operations. Because the previous customer data was not moved to the new system, there were 2 systems to look up past service for history and a new system for new service. It was clear the owner did not really know how to operate either system. He could not answer any of my questions and got frustrated quickly, waving off any inquiries. He told me to "come back" the following week to book an appointment because the entire shop was leaving for a conference. (And it was clear he did not have a handle on how to book appointments). A bad decision on my part, I did come back hoping the service would still be positive despite initial impression. Got the appointment while the owner tried to fumble through past maintenance records to determine anything else needed or problem history. After 2 days, they could not diagnose the problem I brought the vehicle in for. To me, there were not trying at all. They found another problem that they choose to focus on because it was obvious and easily fixable. The springs. I actually had to offer to drive the vehicle to try and replicate the problem because they gave up. I authorized the springs. Took 2 days to receive them for some reason. Car has now been in the shop 4 days - nothing done. Then, they could not find the wheel lock in the afternoon (they never bothered to look in advance or ask for it). I tell them it is in 1 or 2 places. They cannot find it. I come to the shop. I find it almost immediately. In the glove box like I told them. Because of the delays trying to find the wheel lock, they cannot complete the work until next day. In the end, I made probably 4 trips to the shop. Spent all kinds of time supporting the efforts on my time. They did not address the primary problem. Vehicle was in the shop for 5 days plus a weekend. Received the full bill of course for the springs and attempting to diagnose the power failure at $175/hour, no discount for all the troubles. Not even an apology or acknowledgement. Certainly an apathetic attitude throughout. Might be a technical genius when it come to fixing car, but certainly could use some assistance in running a service operations and being attentive to customer service. Needless to say, found another provider and very (very) happy with them.
