Has been my go to spot for years. Prices increased drastically.... Oil change from '23 to '24 increased by over $150, claiming it needed a different type of oil (which was only a $40) difference. Been loyal to them but felt scammed and will no longer be using or recommending this shop. read more

They are tenacious as can be at finding the issue with your car. I had a Nissan truck that nobody could figure out what the issue was. They figured it out. Their prices are fair and they take care of their clients. I would definitely recommend these folks. read more

I've been going to Jose since before he even opened Euro-Tech, since around 1998 or 1999. He did great work on the Audi Coupe Quattro I had back then, and now at Euro-Tech, he and his team have been great with my TT. I recommend Euro Tech without reservation as the shop to go to when their car needs work. read more

Exercise serious caution here. My BMW went completely unresponsive on the road, so I asked AAA to tow it to a nearby mechanic, which was this place. Three immensely negative experiences followed. 1. Jonathan, the guy who accepted my car, flat-out forgot to collect my key. As a result, an entire day was wasted, and I needed to drive my rental car back to Euro-Tech the next day just to hand them my key. When questioned about this, Jonathan trotted out the excuses. First, he claimed the tow-truck driver told him the key was in the car. But why would the driver say that? At no point did the driver ever ask for or even see my key. Because the car was completely unresponsive, the key had been in my pocket the entire time. I pointed this out and Jonathan switched to his customer-blaming tactic. "Not my problem." "You should have given me the key." Hmm... Let's see. As a professional, who must have a key to do his work, who does this kind of work eight hours a day, and who's getting paid, you'd like to put more responsibility on customers than yourself? Also, even if the tow-truck driver for some reason had an inexplicable moment of confusion and said the key was in the car, why wouldn't you confirm this, as a professional? Rather than assuming and letting the customer drive off. This has, by the way, never once happened to me anywhere else. 2. When I called for an update, Jonathan told me the engine was likely dead. Odd. I asked what he meant. He said they were still checking, but the engine was likely non-repairable. The next day, he tells me no, actually it's just a starter and battery that need replacing. The engine isn't dead after all. All right, but why speak confusingly in the first place? If you don't know, why theorize randomly? This seems to be another example of, similar to the point above, the poor communications and tendency to assume at Euro-Tech. 3. Jonathan quoted me $1,791.63 for the starter and battery. If you Google this in context to BMWs, you'll see it's overpriced. I ended up towing my car away and getting the job done elsewhere for $1,162.56, a number much closer to what online searches and forums suggest. Euro-Tech charged me $210 for the diagnostic work they did. Had they not eroded my trust with everything that happened up to this point, I might have just paid the price - inflated or not - and not said anything. But because events had made me worry about incompetence and greed, I paid and then asked to speak with the manager. Doing so allowed me to understand why Jonathan's customer-service skills are so poor. Standards come from the top. Over a five-minute shouting match with the manager, it became clear that he has no sense of responsibility, logic, or developing a good reputation for his business. At first, he took the same customer-blaming route Jonathan did. I explained his duties as a professional to him. He changed tunes and questioned my online price comparison by bizarrely asking, "Does Google fix cars?" No, but I'm about to tell you of another shop in your area that does, and they charge $600 less than you. At that point he switches to, "Listen, junior, if you're going to tow your car to somebody else, you better do it now. If it's not out of here fast, I'm going to charge you a $150 storage fee." I later learned that Euro-Tech is already known among a few other professionals in the area as an unpleasant establishment they actively try to avoid. How much more true that should be from a customer perspective. UPDATE: 2/20/2018 Antonio, thanks for your response. Your nonsensical words and rude tone reinforce everything I wrote. In your response, I lost count of instances of: * unprofessional irresponsible behavior * cluelessness when it comes to customer service * acknowledgment of high prices * foolish assumptions based on absolutely nothing Yelpers, if you want all of the above, please consider Euro-Tech. Also it's interesting how this page has a lot of brief positive reviews that don't at all match my experience, or what I heard about this company from nearby professionals. read more

Great place! Took my Audi A4 here and it was serviced properly. Real honest guys and straight up. O read more

brought in porsche macan for brakes. they completed the job in a timely manner. great experience and good pricing

After buying my dream 08 E93 M3 and having it break down 60 days in is something that broke my heart. Taking it to a shop that put the car in worse condition almost had me living in a nightmare. That's when Jose, Antonio and company were recommend by a friend and made my situation much much better. Jose walked me through the process each step of the way even through the holiday season and after picking the car up today, it runs even much better than when I bought it. I started off at the Culver shop and spent some time at the Venice shop as well so I can definitely say that the whole team deserves more than 5 stars. I will only be going to Euro-Tech in the future for my car. As Jose says, if you like your mechanic, buy a European car. If you don't, buy a Lexus. I like my mechanic so I'm sticking to European. Cheers to the team at Euro-Tech and thanks so much! Also if you are looking to get your Rod Bearings done, I would trust them 100%. read more

When I had an Audi, Euro-Tech took great care of it, repeatedly saved me money by making sure I didn't overpay for parts or service elsewhere. Last year I got a BMW, and lo-and-behold, the guys go and open up a BMW shop that's even closer to my home. It's a no brainer taking my car to Euro-Tech for anything I might need, everyone working at both shops are always friendly and helpful, not case with so many places I'd been to before finding Euro-Tech. Highly recommend taking your BMW to the new shop, which is clean, spacious, and a welcome addition to Lincoln Blvd. read more

Euro-Tech Motors - Auto Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This was my first visit to Euro-Tech Motors - I won't go anywhere else in the future. I had some serious work done (both rear wheel bearings replaced, high pressure steering hose, and battery replacement) These guys are the real deal and I'll never go to the dealer again. Euro-Tech Motors ONLY uses Audi Original parts. Whether you are a full-on enthusiast or an otherwise responsible German car owner that understands the level of knowledge, skill, and attention to detail these amazing cars require: this is the place to take your car. Understand that this is not a hole in the wall mechanic shop in some back alley nor is it a generic chain where you don't really know what your getting, you just know it's cheap- what Euro-Tech IS is a Top-Notch Independent Local Business that offers excellent service, the best available. Most importantly, they actually care, about your car and about you. Jose and Antonio - father and son - partners in business - small business owners - masters of servicing and repairing Audis - good people. Whether you want to be kept in the loop (like me) or not, they are patient and extremely reliable. Jose was sending me pictures of what was wrong because he could sense that I really love my car and cared to know. All of this and their shop is nice and clean too. Honestly, who takes the time to do that?! I was treated like a human being not just another dollar that they could turn around as fast as possible...it's actually sad that I'm so impressed by these guys but there is A LOT of shady business that happens in the auto-repair business today. Jose and Antonio are an example for our community of what a successful and honest small business looks like. They serve the community well doing what they are passionate about. read more

My leased Audi needed service and a couple other minor things. The dealership quoted me $500. I scheduled an appointment with Audi Santa Monica 6 weeks out because they were so busy. And when you take your car to the dealership, they have it for 8 hours. SO! I emailed Euro Tech, received a text from Anthony within 15 minutes. He got me in the NEXT DAY! I took my car in at 11am, they gave me a ride to my doctors appointment, and my car was fixed and cleaned by the time my appointment ended, less than 2 hours later. ALSO! I literally paid 80% less at Euro Tech than what the dealership quoted me. Please support this local business, they deserve it. read more

The EuroTech team is Amazing ! They service my Audi TT for over 12 years! They only use original parts and their working ethics is impecable. read more

They are everything that has already been said. I actually made money by going there. I have worked in over 15 different dealerships and have not come across a better guy than Jose. I actually made money by going there. David Lehman Santa Monica. read more

My battery died the day before a big road trip and Thomas located a new one for me and had me back up and running in a couple hours. It was a huge help and a big relief. The guys at the shop were all very friendly and I've never seen such a clean auto shop - pristine. After running diagnostics, the owner Jose noticed my air intake hose was loose due to a broken clamp which the guys swapped out immediately. He told me all about my car's map and sensor system and why this loosely connected hose was probably causing some rumbling in the engine (which i had been noticing for probably over a year but did nothing) and that's cleared up too. I'm definitely going back. read more

My father recently started having braking issues with his 2006 BMW 325xi. I have had excellent experiences with Euro Tech in Culver City for my Audi so naturally I thought of this place for my father's BMW. My father initially took the car to an independent BMW service center up in NorCal where he lives and was told he needed to change the entire front and rear rotors and pads and also ABS sensors. They quoted him $2500 but could not tell him which sensor or sensors needed replacing. I thought that was ridiculous so I brought the car here. I'm so happy (and my father is too) because his car only needed both front and rear pads and a brake system flush/bleed. The guys at Euro Tech also diagnosed that it was NOT an ABS sensor(s) but it was the steering angle sensor. I had that changed as well and all is fine, the brakes work great! Thank you Thomas, Jose and the mechanics! My father is so happy that he saved money and got his car repaired properly! Keep up the great work! read more

This is a great indy shop for performance vehicles. They seem to really know what they are doing and they are not trying to fleece the public either!! Great service! Great experience! Shaun read more

5 stars are not enough for this shop! Its my first time using them 3 days ago and i am impressed with the customer service, cleanliness and professionalism of this shop! They are the most honest mechanics that i have ever worked with here in LA. Johnny who handles the front was very helpful, he answered any questions and concerns that i had. Thank you for fixing my problem. I will definitely refer this shop to everyone that i know who owns an Audi, Porsche and BMW. Keep up the good work Euro-Tech team! read more

I'm really pleased to have these guys on Lincoln. Since there is no Porsche service or dealership in Santa Monica, Euro tech is a great option for me. I have an extended warranty and I take my 09 targa to them. They do all my servicing and warranty issues. Love the convenience and all their techs are very knowledgeable. read more

Can't say enough good things about my recent experience w the team at Euro Tech Motors. My engine light was on, and my car failed the smog test needed for my registration and I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to get everything taken care of before a trip out of the country. I sent a quote request through Yelp and Antonio responded quickly. They arranged for me to bring my car in the same day and before the day was over, not only had they checked to make sure nothing was wrong with my engine: they took it to make sure it passed the smog test as well. Thomas, Antonio and the whole team were the BEST!! If I ever had car troubles again, I would call them first and look no further. In my opinion, you trust them without question. read more

These guys are great! Have been coming here for work for well over a year now for multiple cars. read more

Incredible find, the gentlemen working are knowledgeable and kind. I came in with my mother's 2008 BMW 128i. I believed it was going to be a $4,000 repair for a new transmission; however after bringing in my vehicle the guys determined it was simple sensor. They promptly repaired the sensor and had me on my way in less than two hours. Definitely a place a would recommend to family and friends. read more

I had a great experience here. My Audi is my baby, my small personal oasis and I did my research in bringing her here. Euro tech exceeded expectations for not only routine maintenance but some warranty work that they got completely covered for me. Having been to a number of the dealerships around the area I confidently would trust Jose and his staff over any of them. One tip, they do have loaners but if it's extended work and you need to get a rental car try to reserve ahead of time. The local enterprise rent-a-car only had premium cars when I showed up. read more

My experience with Euro Tech Motors has truly help relieve the stress of maintenance issues that can result in owning a BMW. My extended warranty was a week from expiring when my car started making an odd noise. I didn't think the warranty was worth the paper it was written on but they worked with the warranty company and all repairs ended up being covered. I don't think I would have had the same result had I taken it to a BMW dealership. More specifically I can't say enough good things about Thomas and Jose. Thomas updated me throughout the time they had my car and explained everything very thoroughly. I will be a lifelong customer. read more

My father in law recommended I take our Audi in and Johnathan treated me so kindly, was generous with his time and the cost was incredible reasonable. I left feeling warm and fuzzy even though it was pouring rain and freezing outside! Thank you! read more

Outstanding customer service, kind & honest staff, hassle free, and fast turn around. This is the best auto shop I've ever been to. I was involved in an accident and they dealt with the insurance company. The whole process with quick and painless. Johnny, the manager was polite, professional and worked with my crazy schedule to get me in and out. They returned my car in mint condition with an immaculate car wash. It looked brand new. It was difficult for me to drop off & pick up the car with 2 kids and 2 car seats, so they arranged it for me. They dropped me and kids off at home and took the car, then delivered the car back to my home, even earlier than expected. That is above and beyond. No other shop has come close to this level of service. First class all the way. I have recommended this shop to friends and would highly recommend it all. read more

I have taken several of my cars to Euro-Tech and have had a very positive experience every time. Antonio was extremely quick to respond to any questions I had prior to my appointments and the staff at the Venice location was super helpful and professional. Highly recommended! read more

I went to Euro-Motors today. I met Jonathan. I had a rear light out and he replaced it for free and I was out of there in like 5 minutes. He was very courteous and professional. This is my new auto shop for my Audi. No more going back to the dealership I really like this place! read more

Euro-Tech was excellent. Jose was very easy to work with and gave me a reassurance that his team would take care of my Audi A7. They guarantee their work and provided an easy process to resolve my issue. read more

I love this place!! I used to take my BMW to their Washington Blvd location, but now I am so glad they have a shop specifically for BMWs. The new shop is so clean and modern! Jose is top notch and a man with integrity. His guys seem to be pretty happy working there. I completely trust him to do what's right for my car! (And my budget) I tell everyone I know with a BMW to go here!! If you have an Audi go to the original location on Washington Blvd across from DMV. read more

Great service by Euro-Tech for my daughter's 328i. All requested work was done on time and at a reasonable price. Thank you!

These people are dirty! Bad service. I did read the reviews and was very excited to take my car here. Took it for a steering noise & I had to take it to get it checked out. They did an inspection and was diagnosed with something unrelated to my initial issue. I work for a Trucking company in the Maintenance Dept. so if it's a Steering noise I know what location that is coming from. I was relieved it wasn't a steering an issue but what irked me was the other issue they found. I left & within minutes of my commute & of course running the engine the Engine Light came on. Keep in mind my car did not have or has ever had the engine light on. My car has less than 40,000 miles on it and I've never had any issues with it. I called to speak to the Maintenance Manager and the guy that answered the phone advised it was him. I figured oh wow that's cool that he has the time to answer the phone at the 2nd ring, but when I told him about my issue he asked if I was calling the right place, asked random questions, & when I told him I would be there the next morning he seemed annoyed. I took my car to another location to have them run it with a scanner and they found a sensor had been unplugged and not just any sensor that easily comes off or a random mistake. It was a sensor where you have to dig deep to be able to unplug it. Glad it only happened to me though as the reviews seem great for this place. Best of luck to you. read more

Best & most honest mechanic around hands down!! They have done work on my car several times now & Jose is always so honest, upfront and genuine. Plus, my car gets done in a timely manner and they even wash it, now that's service. Honest mechanics are hard to come by & my BMW is expensive to maintain regardless. Thanks again to Jose and his team for always exceptional service. read more

This review is a bit long overdue but I have never been so impressed with an auto repair shop. I brought my BMW here because while it was getting serviced at BMW of Santa Monica they told me that the "check engine light" had come on while they were doing repairs unrelated to the engine. A big skeptical, I refused to have BMW run a diagnostic on the "check engine light" and Brought it to Euro Tech Motors and told them about what had happened. Normally they charge $140 for the diagnostic but once they looked at the car they had discovered that there was a plug that the mechanic at BMW had unplugged which caused the light and there was nothing wrong with my car. Because of this, Euro tech did not charge me the fee. I have yet to come across a shop with this much honesty and integrity who really cares about their clients and the money they spend. Moving forward I will only bring my car to this shot. Thomas and the whole crew really are great to deal with and honest! Highly recommend. read more

These guys are as good as you get. I've been taking my 2014 VW GTI to the shop on Lincoln for a couple years now. I also took my 2007 Jetta TDI to the shop on Washington for three before that. I had some real difficulty finding a trustworthy mechanic in Los Angeles, before I found these guys. They mostly take in and work on high-end cars. But these guys will treat an older, less expensive car with just as much attention and care. While I live in Los Angeles, I will not think of going anywhere else. Both locations are excellent. Also, shoutout to Johnny for getting in a very last minute major service for me recently. It saved me a huge headache. read more

I've known and worked with Euro Tech Motors for the last few years and trust no one else when it comes to high quality service.
