Brought my car in for a regular service. Everything was completed as discussed and there were no extra fixes suggested like I would get at the dealership. Very good pricing and quick turnaround. read more

The team here was super helpful with my repair and fast service! Was back on the road quicker than my last car shop. read more

I have been a customer of Stuttgart Motors since the mid seventies. Honest great! mechanics. As well their pricing structure is super reasonable. Sadly today I heard that Teddy was killed in a motorcycle accident. What a great loss! Not only was Teddy an ACE mechanic, he was always honest and really new his stuff. Great! conversation too. Teddy will be greatly missed by Stuttgart Motors and the customers he served so well. Sincerely J Catania read more

Grzegorz Kilon from Stuttgart Motors serviced my Audi. Two months later I brought it back for creaking in the suspension. He said he wasn't sure, but thought that replacing 2 ball joints could fix the problem. I paid $700 for that. When I picked up the car, my windshield had a new crack in it - right in front of the driver's side so noticeable to me. When I asked about it, he hadn't even looked at it before he said "Oh, that was there already." It was not there when I brought it in. There was fresh glass dust around the crack! The creaking noises were back within weeks of the ball joint replacement. I went to another mechanic who found broken control arms. GK made it sound mysterious but I guess this is common with Audis after 10 years. Plus, all fluids in the car needed replacement despite the recent service. I hope others can avoid experiencing what I did. Ineffective (waste of money), frustrating and not trustworthy professionally or personally. read more

See all

Honest, kind and extremely knowledgeable service. They are truly Mercedes experts. Highly recommend!!

I used to bring my classic 1968 280SL there some years ago. Here are just some of the issues they created by sloppy workmanship: - Paint chip touch up: Wrong color match - Right rear panel repaint: Bad orange peel (obvious subpar workmanship) - Firewall replacement: Sloppy fitting, made a mess with glue in the back of the engine bay - Automatic transmission rebuild: Used a faulty part that almost killed the transmission - Chrome trim replacements: Forgot to use the complementary rubber mouldings - Fuel line replacement: Had to replace the same fuel lines again a year later - Incorrect billing: "Sunroof repair" - the car doesn't even have a sunroof Shady and disappointing. Stay away! read more

This shop is bad news! Brought a sprinter motor home in to replace the rear sway bar bushing. While jacking the van up, the mechanic broke my sewage line resulting in a nasty spill, that he proceeded to hose off into the seating area of a lunch truck with customers seated directly in the stream. He then told me to give him $150 and leave (without fixing the sway bar) and to come back after fixing the leak. I refused, so he pretended to fix the leak, when in reality he only waited for the tank to run empty. This takes the cake for the most rude, incompetent shop I've ever visited. read more

The new mechanic supposedly fixed a broken part in my car and a week later the same part broke again. Like a dummy I went back to the same mechanic, and the same thing happened again -- this time the part broke on a trip to Tahoe and we spent the night in Davis getting it fixed. They charge top dollar and are not providing good service. Avoid! read more

Get in my car. Start driving to work. Better slow down - traffic. Oh wait. Shit. My brakes aren't working the way they normally do. Holy christ my car is stuttering. Is that even possible? What the .... Yep, that was my morning! Fun, huh!... That would be NO... My beloved fine German automobile was definitely upset this morning! I turn around, drive home and try to find the number for that auto shop up the street that specializes in Mercedes. What in the world is their name? Ahhhh .... Stuttgart! Ringing. They answer. I lean in as close as I possibly can to my cell phone as his German accent is quite intense. Probably unsafe to drive? Ummmm yah got that. You can't recommend driving it there? Ummmm yah I understand. Tow? Yah not gonna happen - I'm only 10+ minutes away. I'll take my life in my hands .... Slowly. Carefully. And with hazard lights on. Chat with Teddy. Super nice guy. Hand over my keys and Richard drives me home in an uber cool '69 S-Class. What service! I sit patiently awaiting the phone call. Ring. Ring. Hello. Okay. Okay that's not too bad thank god. Alright. Wait a second? Am I sitting down? Oh christ, yes I guess so. The rest is just too painful to recount. Let's just say that my car and Stuttgart and Teddy will become best friends real fast. My poor checkbook mourns its loss. Getting over my sadness. I find it necessary to spread the word. Stuttgart is reliable. Friendly. Affordable (as affordable as you can get when dealing with German autos). Willing to work with you. Wink. Wink. Where oh where is my studly "suit" boyfriend who fancies fixing fine automobiles on the side??? Dare to dream ... read more

I wish there is a zero star option.Richard from Stuttgart Motors does not conduct his business out of good conscience. If the situation suits him, he would charge you double of what the market price is. Stay away from this place! read more

Let me join the chorus. This place is great. I have a '91 Mercedes 300te. I tend to keep cars once I am attached. Having received this baby from my mom-in-law with 69,000 miles three years ago, I felt I had gotten the proverbial "only driven to church on Sunday" jewel. But "NOOOOOOOO!" if I can quote SNL. A highly touted Portola Valley garage had just gone through and cleared it for take-off. With a/c problems, a muffler that kept breaking the donuts that secured it to the chassis, balky starting, a driver's door panel that shifted when the window went down, cruise control that would make the car shutter, and an oil leak, I had my work cut out for me. $10,000 still left with mysteries and parts that were unobtainable. Then, for another reason, I went to Stuttgart Motors to talk to the owner's son. I asked at the auto repair desk if I had any hope in getting out all the quirks. I was asked what I had been told were the problems. After six "That is BS'es", I left the car. In two short stints at the shop, my car is now that classic with no flaws. If you want reasonable, super-knowledgeable help from experts, look no further. read more

I've taken my VW to Sttugart Motors at least 10 times in the last 6 years. They always take really good care of my car, and always fix whatever is wrong... plus, they always wash my car too ;) The good things about Stuttgart: They provide services from a simple oil change, to auto body repair. The workers are very professional, you can rely 100% on their work. The bad things: They don't always have time to give you detailed information/update on your car. Also, they're Germans. Don't expect them to be the nicest/most polite people you've ever met. In summary, I'd totally recommend this place if you are looking for honest, professional car service ! read more

Great staff, quick service. I go here for all of my car needs, I do not own a Mercedes, I have a Subaru and they do great work! I have been going to Stuttgart Motors for years and they have never let me down. Support local businesses! read more

The staff is very friendly, honest and knowledgeable. I used to have my 2010 E550 serviced by Mercedes dealer but got tired of paying top dollar for the same work Stuttgart Motors can do for a better price and faster. read more

When you have a car like mine, 1989 190E, it needs constant attention. I was lucky to find Stutgart Motors as they have bent over backwards to help with my tricky problems with finding low cost parts and supporting my most urgent emergencies. How about driving in with an ignition lock about to go. They put in a loaner lock to get me going again and ordered a replacement. Not many repair shops would go to that much trouble. My heater/defroster vent would not work. They saved a lot of money by working on it through the glove box... Bravo, thanks to them I can keep the car a little longer and not have to spend the money on a new car now... read more

Knowledgeable, fast and courteous. I had an unexpected leak in the steering fluid of my car, called them and they told me to bring the car right in. They diagnosed, explained and then fixed the problem right away, getting me back on the road in no time. They also fixed a burned out bulb at the same time. read more

Wesley and Teddy at Stuttgart Motors are the best! I have been a customer of theirs for several years now, and they have always done an excellent job on any issue I have had with my car. They've done everything from scheduled maintenance, finding & installing new tires, fixing a faulty electronic issue, to occasional oil changes. Most recently they did an AWESOME body work job on my car! It looks brand new!!! And, they put new seals around my doors; my car is quieter inside now than it has ever been! I cannot compliment these guys enough! read more

I called this place to get a price to have the work done on my car. I was told that I need to bring the car to find out the price. I said that if I don't like their price, I would have wasted my time. I was then told that I was wasting my time calling them. Very rude and very not customer service oriented. It does not sound like they want customers at all there. Stay away from this place. read more

I ended up at Stuttgart Motors today after dealing with some not so pleasant car service nearby. I walked in very frustrated and basically in tears, and left with a huge smile thanks to their help. Unfortunately, I didn't get the names of the two gentlemen that helped me, but they definitely have a new customer. read more

Had a really nice first experience with Stuttgart today. They were recommended by another ship as a Mercedes specialist. Teddy was there when I got there at 7:10a for C level service, I asked him to change the battery and he got everything done by 2:30p. Prices were reasonable and quoted accurately. I paid what I was promised. I'll be going back there for my next service for sure. Nice job guys! read more

Took my mercedes to stuttgart motors. I had dealt with the father of the current owner and had had very good service, so I thought I was dealing with an honest outfit. This is no longer the case. When my husband took his mercedes a couple of weeks ago with a light on the console that said check the engine he was charged $650 and told it was taken care of. Two days later the light came on again. This time he was told it was a gasket or two and it would cost $3-$4K to fix, and the car wasn't worth much more. He had already taken it apart, so he couldn't drive it to get a sencond estimate. However, he would give him $3K for the car, so my husband signed off the pink slip to him. He later thought about it and went back to find the shop closed. On Monday, when he opened he refused to sell the car back to my husband, eventhough he offered to buy it back. He said it was already sold, but the car was still in the shop. I have reported them to the Bureau of Automotive Repairs. I doubt I will get the car back, since this fellow knows what he is doing, cheating elderly clients. I am hoping this will help other people dealing with them. read more

Teddy is great, very honest and with very fair pricing. He also gets to work early which made it very convenient for me to get an A service done before work. Way better than the dealer and almost half the price! It's true they don't like to quote prices over the phone but they had the best price I could find in the area regardless. read more

I worked for Richard, way back in 1985-6 , though we parted ways I wouldn't think twice where to take my car. All that's needed to say is a car business doesn't stay in business as long as Stuttgart Motors has by cheating people with their work. I don't need to tell a long story here, just honest work that keeps your Mercedes Benz value when it's time to trade in. read more

I brought my car to fix at this motor repair shop. Check your car before you pick up your vehicle they will damage other item in your vehicle for you to come back again for a repair. This is not an honest shop to get your vehicle to fix read more

I've been looking for a mechanic for my 1970 Mercedes 280SL since my old mechanic retired several years ago. Teddy was recommended to me by someone who collects old Mercedes. Not only did he make my car run nicely again (finally!) but his prices are reasonable, and he is absolutely delightful to deal with. read more
