I've always brought my CLA250 to Ray. Ray always did a great job in servicing my car, while being honest and giving me the best price. On top of that, you also get a free carwash after you're done with your service. I highly recommend this place to service your Mercedes. read more

Ray's MBZ - Auto Repair Near Me - Pasadena, California

Amazing. Really know their stuff, patient with a bunch of questions (even while the phone was ringing) quick turnaround. Able to translate "car jargon" into regular English, let me look under my car and engine to understand things. A gem. read more

I'd stopped in once before with a burnt-out signal light on my '06 E350 and they popped in a new bulb free of charge; very cool. Months later, the center brake light (on the trunk lid) went out. I arranged to come in on a Saturday afternoon, as this could be more involved. There were no other cars in their bays. The assistant checked it out, found that it was a broken wire ("typical problem in these") running up between the left rear quarter panel and the inside of the trunk compartment. He spent maybe 20 minutes fixing it, and charged me $225.00. Not only that, but the guy lost the bezel that goes on that side of the trunk where the hinge goes through - way to go, bozo. I was hoping to have these guys repair the intake manifold on my car (also a common issue on this model) in the near future; but, after that gouge, no thanks. read more

I chose Rays based on the excellent reviews. I had the 50k service on my GLS which included oil and filter, spark plugs, coolant service, transmission service and brake flush. The price was reasonable and when there was a slight complication, Ray took the car back and made things right. It's hard to find an honest mechanic that stands behind their work without giving an excuse. I will definitely bring the vehicle back in the future for service. read more

I have taken my car to Ray for service for more than 3 years. Always great service, fast, reliable. Much better value and quality than service at the dealer. The other day, I had service A done and he included complimentary car wash; the dealer don't even do this anymore since the pandemic. Very happy with service! read more

Honesty and integrity...an oxymoron for the typical auto repair business. I took in my wife's E63 for an oil leak, and within 1 minute from being on the lift, Ray said there is no leak. He very well could've fixed the imaginary leak. I did however, need to replace the rotors and brake pads...which I knew a year ago. Would highly recommend...just wish he worked on other makes! read more

After being ripped off by dtla motors, I researched my options. I had no idea that I didn't have to take my car in to the dealer for service! I was once told that if I use a non certified repair shop, the warranty would be void. So that's a lie. Ray's mbz does everything here that the dealer would do. They use all genuine parts. The mechanics are certified. And it's HALF PRICE. We were quoted $800+ for new brake pads at the dealer. They did it here for half price. HALF. Never going to dtla motors ever again. read more

Ray's MBZ - Half price. Dtla motors quoted $800+. - Auto Repair Near Me - Pasadena, California

Ray is the man! Ray has been working on my Mercedes for the last 4 years and I trust his knowledge for any Mercedes! He is a very honest and reliable mechanic who will look out for you! I highly recommend letting Ray be your Mercedes mechanic if you don't want a headache. Thanks again Ray! read more

Best quick fast service!!! I needed my 2018 Mercedes car remote battery changed. I made sure to call before just to double check that they did that here. I Didn't get a name but they were very helpful, friendly, and fast. Literally changed my battery in less then a minute. Awesome!!! Coming here for all of my car needs. read more

Best place for you Mercedes to get serviced, half the price from the dealer , he will have you car ready in less than 2 hours and he also washed my car for me , definitely would recommend. read more

Ray is the man! Cant believe i haven't left a review for this honest hardworking individual and his shop/team. Thanks for the great service and hospitality. This man knows his shit! read more

Only trustworthy place to repair my benz. Hard to find honest mechanic these days.

A few weeks ago, my wife and I were vacationing in Pasadena. We drove down from Marin, in my wife's aging Mercedes. The day before we were to drive back, we heard a weird noise towards the front of the car. Ray checked out the car, right away. Spent a good deal of time, poking around, and let us know that there is nothing wrong. I asked what I owe him, and he said that I owed him nothing. I was happily astonished. We were able to drive back, without worries. Thanks, Ray! You are a gentleman! read more

He was so nice and took care of my brakes in a timely fashion. I had just gotten my Mercedes and was scared of who to go to and he gave me really good pricing as well. Completely recommend and I'm going to always go to him for my Mercedes needs read more

If you need your MBZ serviced, go to Ray's! Great work, and fair prices. Thanks Ray! read more

Ray is my cars best friend! I found him on Yelp 3 years ago and until today he is my go to man, I don't trust anyone else with my car and I've gone through many mechanics before I found this place. Not only does he do a great and honest job, he gets the job done in a nick of time + they use genuine MBZ parts and a car wash is included every time. read more

Ray is very knowledgeable on any MB car issues and is very reliable too. He does not distinguish any high end or standard compact size cars, as my daughter's car and he treats all same. He is an honest and great mechanic. read more

Look no further, this place is great. I had a check engine light bothering me, and the dealer wanted to charge me $200 just to tell what was going on. Ray took a look at my car with out charging me, and recommend everything I needed. After buying all the parts he did a excellent job for a fraction of what other places were charging, and had my car back to me within a few hours. Since then they've went out of their way to check on me and my car, and welcomed me back like family when I needed something else. Thanks read more

From my Car's fluid changes and onto a courtesy car wash.....top notch service! I am absolutely impressed! Ray and his crew are on top of service that I've been overdue for and cannot say enough on their high quality service! Highly recommended and is my go to car service! Thank you Ray! Thumbs way up! read more

Ray is the cool dude. He is funny, honest and if he can help you with no charge he does it...if its something small. I've only done 2 repairs here...one was small, one was big. And, of course, the oil service. Skip the dealership rip off. He is a Benz specialist! Go to Ray! read more

Ray is one awesome dude. His advice is priceless. He is knowledgeable and cares about his customers. I've gone to his shop for service and advice several times. He's always free to stop what he's doing to answer questions. After he completes the job, your car will be washed waiting for you. Nice perk. read more

Rays MBZ. Love this guys helped me out great service and awesome rates. Had my car towed here from another auto shop instead of paying and arm and a leg I spent have the amount. They got me a rental and had my car ready in 2 days. You can't beat the price on service for my E class. Where I would' of spent $2200 at the dealer I only spent 1400 with Rays. Thanks Ray! read more

Ray's MBZ has always been reliable. A mercedez dealership had my car for two weeks trying to find the cause of a check engine light. Ray figured it out less than an hour. Didn't even charge me. He changed out the wires and done. What an honest mechanic. read more

Trustworthy mechanical. I highly recommend this place. Appointments are easy to make. Ray goes the extra mile.

This review is long over due review. I've been coming to Ray's for a few years now and his service is always on point! He's knowledgeable, trust worthy, and has the best prices. To top it off he always returns your car with a complimentary car wash! As someone who literally knows nothing about cars, it's a good feeling knowing you can trust your mechanic. He always takes the time to explain things and will even show you the broken parts so you know he's being truthful. If you have a Mercedes, go here! read more

Ray is awesome. I was in an accident last November. After repairs at the body shop, there was still a loud knocking, shaking and rumbling coming from the engine of my car. I took my car back to the body shop and they could not find any problem. I then took it to the Rusnak Mercedes service department and they could not find it either. Desperate, I actually had to record the knocking and rumbling and play it back for them to help identify the problem. I returned my car and they ended up changing the motor mounts but that did not fix the problem. Again I took it back to the body shop and they could not find the problem even thought they admitted that something was wrong. Finally, I took my car to Ray. He checked it out and was able to immediately isolate the problem - a busted transmission mount. How is it that Rusnak's service department had my car so long and could not figure this out? Anyway, Ray took care of it right away and for a great price. All the knocking, shaking and rumbling is gone and I could not be happier. We have since had two of our cars serviced at Ray's MBZ and won't take them anywhere else. read more

After taking my car to Rusnak for many years and paying top $$$$, I decided to find elsewhere to get my car serviced. I found RAY's MBZ on Yelp and am so thankful I did! They've been honest and up front about everything. The price I pay to get my car serviced here is very reasonable. They even replaced a few of my bulbs free of charge! I've been coming here the last couple of years and will continue to do so as long as I own a MBZ. Thank you for taking care of my car! read more

My 2009 Mercedes E350 4Matic needed service, brakes, and rear rotors done. Like others I'm very skeptical of shady mechanics and was very hesitant to take to dealer because I would not be able to take financial hit that they would get me with. So what did I do??? Opened up my handy dandy Yelp app on my iPhone and after a few minutes of speed reading and research calling 2 other shops I was on my way to Rays. Just as advertised this guys shop is on point! I seen several Mercedes Tech certificates which let's me the consumer know that this guy knows what he is doing when it comes to getting work done on my European vehicle. Ray gave me a hassle free quote and I did not feel I was getting haggled by the used car sales man type. I knew the ball park figuere all the work was gonna run me and let me tell you that I felt I was getting a deal. After agreeing to begin work I asked for a ride and not only was I shocked by what happened next but to me it speaks volumes about going above and beyond to make sure a customer leaves satisfied- Ray offered to get me a rental for the day. That was pretty cool and something that you only come to expect from the dealer. I politely declined and explained that I owned a second vehicle at home I could drive. Ray then had his shop assistant Javier give me a ride home. Work was completed on time when promised and Ray even had my car washed at car wash next door. So not only is my car driving smooth but it also looks good (Atleast for the next day or 2!) To summarize I appreciate his customer service and love that was showed to my car. In the future ill definately be back when it comes time to get work done on my Benz. Thank you Ray! read more

To summarize my experience, the quality of Ray's services is impeccable! I'm usually the type of person who is skeptical of mechanics because I've had a few bad experiences, but not with Ray. He was professional, courteous, and didn't make me feel like I was asking stupid questions. His service is prompt, price was competitive, and even comes with a free car wash. He's not pushy either to sell services. Just the right amount. In fact, he told me to hold off some services but told me that I should get my tires replaced (even though he doesn't sell tires) after a regular maintenance service because he noticed that the treading was low. Sure enough, a month later, my tires gave out. Ray also replaced my low beam lights at no extra charge. I'll be sure to bring my car back to him in the future! read more

I been looking on yelp for quite some time now for a honest reliable Mercedes mechanic . After doing some research I find ray :)) I initially went in to replace my reverse lights since they went out recently .... I pull up to the shop and I'm greeted by this lovely man :)) very nice !!! He got right in the trunk and replaced the light bulbs with no issue . He then checked out under the hood and saw a couple of minor things that he fixed on the spot for me. He's very funny and fun to talk to. Very honest man! I was very very happy I found him! I asked him how much I owe him and he said nothing... Wow .... IM DEF COMING BACK TO SERVICE MY BENZ HERE!!!!!! Def recommend him. Got his business and looking forward to bringing my baby Benz here !!!!!! MUS GO TO MECHANIC FOR THE BENZ! :))) Very HAPPY!!!!!!!! read more

Ray is the best mechanic I've ever had! I've taken our car to him for several years now and he never disappoints. He's excellent at troubleshooting, and can tell me exactly what needs to be done to fix our car. He has worked with Mercedes Benzes his entire life and he is a true expert. I trust him 100%. Ray gets my car fixed quickly, usually within hours of dropping it off. He's honest, reliable, and charges fair prices. Not only is Ray an excellent mechanic, but he's also one of the kindest and coolest people I know! read more

RAYS MBZ IS THE BEST very professional, very fast, quality product, been coming here for the past 4 years and always had the best service and products from them. in fact, i was just there yesterday to get my 2010 E350 serviced. there is a Starbucks about 4 minutes away walking distance which is very convenient. oh not to mention, their price are reasonable too. gonna keep coming back. read more

Ray is my go-to guy for auto repair. Conveinent location, good prices, fast, friendly service. ++ a car wash next door, what more do you want? I am hestitant to even write this review, because I am selffish and don't want other people hogging up Ray's time!! My next car will most certainly be a MBZ just so that I can take it to be serviced by Ray. read more

Ray is honest! So hard to find that in a mechanic. Grateful I found him. His prices are fair and the turn around is super quick! I don't trust anyone else with my car. read more

First of all, I would like to thank Ray and his team of professionals for the fantastic work performed on my Mercedes E320 Wagon....Words cannot explain how grateful I am to have met Ray. This gentleman is a true Mercedes Benz Specialist. I'm sure that his knowledge of cars extends beyond Mercedes Benz, but he's dedicated to Mercedes, work exclusively on Mercedes .............A true craftsman Forever grateful. Jason read more

Ray was the gentleman that took care of my car and I. I went in for a wheel bearing and hub replacement for my front tires. Pricy job, anywhere I looked. I had many options, as there are hundreds of repair shops in Pasadena. However, the reason I chose Ray's MBZ, was due to their professionalism, cleanliness, and their 20+ years of being a MB Certified Tech after checking out their reviews, I was even more convinced that Ray's MBZ was the perfect choice for me. great job Ray's MBZ, I WILL BE BACK!!! read more

Update: my engine was running rough on my C63 and Rays took less than 5 minutes to diagnose the issue. He replaced my intake manifold in a day and charged me half of what a dealer would charge. I highly recommend Rays MBZ. They've been nothing short of amazing! read more

Great meeting Ray. Very professional and nice approachable person. Appreciate you expert advice on the 2013 ML350. Definitely recommend and will be back. Thank you Ray. read more

I hate taking my Benz to a dealership because of over the top expenses. Just moved onto the area and was looking for a place like this. I went by the reviews and the service was incredible. Best I've ever had. They took my walk up and did it in an hour. I have never had that service anywhere. I will continue to take my car there every time for service. read more

I needed a service B for my 2012 Mercedes E350. The previous mechanic I relied on changed owners and the reviews were not great. I found Ray's MBZ on Yelp and dropped off my E350. Ray took care of the service and had it ready for pick up after lunch in Old Town Pasadena. Ray's MBZ is right next to a car wash and he had my car washed (it needed it!). I tipped the gentleman who took care of wiping down the car. Ray's a great guy with a broad automotive background. I look forward visiting Ray's MBZ for future service on my Mercedes. Thanks Ray!!! read more
