We were on a road trip up to Paso all the way from Orange County. About 2 hours out from Paso my engine light came on. We called 5 different mechanics and half of them all told me to call Mike. We called him and unfortunately he was closing at 2pm (it was 1:45pm and we were still hours out). [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mike was so nice he offered to meet us later that evening (hours after he closed) just so he could scan my car and try and give me an idea of what might be wrong.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We met up with him at 8pm on a Friday evening and he was able to find out it was nothing serious and we would be able to drive back home without any issue. If/when you ever have any real issues with you car I'd highly recommend coming to see Mike! What a lifesaver! read more

I came into town to purchase one of my dream vehicles. I wanted to make sure I did my due diligence and wanted to do a PPI (Pre-Purchase Inspection). Being from out of town about 259 miles away to be exact. I needed to find a shop that A.) I could trust to do the job right and B.) Could get it done in time, considering I was only in town for 2 days. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I found The AutoBahn and I'am so glad I did they accommodated me almost last minute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Mike was very thorough and knowledgeable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was also nice that he checks you in through a phone text system.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was able to explore Templeton with my wife while I was getting the PPI. We had a bite to eat that [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mike recommended and he was spot on with that place also![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The AutoBahn texted me when it was done so we headed back. Upon arrival Mike explained to me some bad news about the car but overall mostly good news he showed me and explained a 2-3 page report with pictures of the condition of the vehicle . He said if he was in the market to purchase a Porsche he would purchase this one. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was very happy and had a big sigh of relief because I was really hoping it would all work out, it was a lot of logistics to figure out for this purchase but The AutoBahn made me feel relaxed like one of the regulars and took very good care of me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They made me feel like I could trust them to do any job, very honest shop with great prices! I actually came back the next day after I purchased the Porsche and had The AutoBahn do an oil change for me before I left on my drive back home. I cannot recommend The AutoBahn enough and wish they were closer to me so this could be my home mechanic. read more

I can't say enough good things about Mike at the AutoBahn and his front office help, Hope. We take both of my Mercedes vehicles to Mike for all of our needs and I always know I can trust and count on him to take care of me as if I was family. Mike has assisted me in diagnosing multiple issue on a used vehicle I purchased and continues to help me prioritize these repairs. I have used many mechanics in my time, I will always return to Autobahn. Great people! read more

Mike does amazing work. Not only do you get detailed explanations but he does it in a way that even the most novice car person wouldn't feel lost. The pricing is fair and the shop is clean. I first took my car to big brand tire and after spending quite a bit of money I decided to try the Autobahn. I should have started here. Big brand appeared to be throwing darts at the wall on what was wrong. Mike dove in and found the issue. Thank you Mike fir the professionalism, fair pricing, and feel good service. The Mini is driving like the sports car I purchased. read more

Took our Volvo XC60 there for a brake fluid flush service. Mike was friendly and did the job at competitive rate. He also topped off other fluids that needed it and aired up my tires. Convenient location in Templeton, CA. Would go there again. read more

Mike is an amazing business owner/human being. Mikes been taking care of my vehicles for the past five years. I've never had a business owner, let alone mechanic, make me feel like I wasn't just an invoice. He is trustworthy, an amazing mechanic, and just a good human. I trust Mike with my vehicles and I'd trust him with yours!!! read more

Expert, friendly, efficient, reasonable. Seems to know the German cars well. I definitely will return when my car needs service.

After a wonderful weekend with my girlfriend in Santa Cruz, we began our journey back down to LA. "What a perfect trip" we thought and exclaimed to each other repeatedly. At that moment, while traveling at 75 mph on the 46, my car made other plans. We ended up waiting 3 hours on the side of the road for AAA to tow my car to the nearest mechanic, and that happened to be The AutoBahn. I'm honestly very suspicious of car repair shops as I had been deceived in my past, but as soon as I met Mike and the other mechanic (I forgot his name; sorry!), I felt way more at ease. These guys know what they are talking about and are honest and hardworking. Not only did they identify the issue in my BMW quickly, they even offered to give us rides to our hotel, call Enterprise for us, and were just kind human beings. They fixed the car for a very reasonable price and my car has been running great ever since. I can't recommend The AutoBahn enough! read more

Mike the owner is very helpful when the engine on our Jaguar lost its compression. He worked hard on replacing the engine and responsive when we have problems. read more

Excellent personal customer service. Knowledgeable. I felt like the owner cared about my safety, replaced my brakes without added costs. I appreciated that they tested the brakes with a road test prior to my picking up my car. AutoBahn is my new go to automotive repair home. read more

I phoned this outfit today to have my wifes's 2008 BMW smogged and serviced for a couple of diagnostic lights. The guy (Mike) who answered the phone didn't even bother to ask why I called just stated: " I think you are trying to sell me something"....OK. Stick with a reputable dealer who recognizes at the very least how to effectively represent an organization when you are customer facing. read more

On a trip up 101 my Audi started shuddering, we pulled off the road, decided not to continue (after consulting with home mechanic), left the car in Paso and rented a car, hoping we could get the repairs done on our return on Monday when shops opened up. Sure enough, called AutoBahn in the morning from SF, dropped it off around noon, they diagnosed and fixed the problem, and we were on our way. Mike, Peter, everyone could not have been more helpful or more expert, MUCH appreciated. read more

I recently bought a BMW so needed to find a German car specialist for my servicing needs. I've been twice so far, once for oil change and again to fix so coding problems I was having. They were able to fix me up very quick. Friendly staff and reasonable rates. I'll definitely be back when I need service. read more

In 40 years of car ownership I've never been so well treated as I have by Mike and his team at Autobahn. We are in our first BMW, but Knowing we have Autobahn as our repair professionals,has already helped determined that our next vehicle will be another BMW. We had a persistent and perplexing issue with our 2012 X5 diesel. The crew at Autobahn became personally invested in resolving the challenge. The whole team is professional and welcoming. They continue to follow up long after the problem was resolved. I could not recommend them more highly. read more

Never again! My son's car sat for months out on Main St. Electrical ignition problem that would drain the battery. I informed them of this. was told they would "warrenty" out a battery, what ever? Ignition cylinder replaced. Additional required service, coil wires ect. no call or any update. We picked up the car with a $220 charge for a new battery and a list of reccomended service and a dent in the fender. $2100 bill and the audacity to ask , " Are you happy with the service?" Check engine light on and running like it's missing. Do not bother, $179/ hr. NEVER AGAIN! read more

We were on our way from LA to Sonoma & while in Paso Robles we had some car problems / losing coolant . The shops working on German cars were v few . We called The AutoBahn around 10 AM on Monday morning & explained our problem & the fact that we stayed the night in Paso & if needed could stay the fallowing day until late afternoon . It was an urgent situation. What we heard was unbelievable by any stretch of imagination. We were told that they would be able to look & diagnose the car the following Monday !!! and after that they will order the necessary parts. This business doesn't know the word urgent / special circumstances, etc ... In any business there are regular appointments and urgent ones . This business might be good at fixing the cars but the caring for the customers & understanding special situations scores a big zero . We called The European Car Specialists & were told no appointment available for 1 week . When we explained our situation Simon told us to bring the car in . Next d at noon the car was ready ! This is what good customer service should be ! read more

We were on a little vacation in Paso Robles when our Mercedes' battery failed on a Saturday night. And because it's a Mercedes, it's not easy to replace. Ahh, the cost of ownership. There is no Mercedes dealership in Paso so we searched online and found The AutoBahn. What a GREAT find! I showed up at 8am on Monday and met with Mike (owner) and the office manager (his daughter). They were both amazing!! So helpful and lovely to deal with. Mike stated he was able to replace the battery right then and I was on my way in less than an hour. If I could go there for all my auto needs I would! Thank you, Mike and team!! read more

We were traveling back to Long Beach after a long weekend visiting family . A few miles down the road our GTI started making a squealing noise and the engine light came on . We yelped repair shops for VW and got the number for AutoBahn . Mike said they were booked but stop by and see what he could do to help . After ordering some parts and repairs he had us back on the road by 5 pm . We are so grateful for their expertise in the repair and help . This team is amazing and were so kind . Thanks Mike and team we will spread the news at how great you guys are read more

Love Mike and all the employees at the Autobahn. Credible and kind very reliable work.

Mike and team have always been so professional, reliable and most importantly trustworthy! My daughter's car is currently there, and mark my words; this mom doesn't have a worry in the world being in the hands of The AutoBahn!!! read more

I took a vehicle in to these guys for a pre-purchase inspection recently. Having never worked with them before, I didn't know what to expect when the prospective buyer (out of town) asked if I could drop it off with them. Dave and Mike were highly communicative and very flexible with scheduling. Their shop is clean, and they got everything done very efficiently. While I am very happy with the relationship I have with another local German auto specialist, I wouldn't think twice to bring a vehicle back to the AutoBahn! read more

Coming up to Templeton from Los Angeles, my 17-year-old Mini Cooper suddenly would not go more than 25 mph. I took it to the AutoBahn, where Mike and Ricardo, two super friendly guys, cheerfully offered to look it over. I expected to be told I needed a new transmission for $2000. Instead, they fixed my car for $190! They even threw in some free rubber tubing! read more

Mike just did extensive refurbishment and maintenance on my newly adopted 2005 4Matic Mercedes (oil,filters,drive belt,replace axles/ boots, valve cover replacement, et al). His prices are fair and competitive. Both he and his desk man Ricardo worked hard to deliver a top notch experience, and were in constant communication on progress. I recommend Autobahn wholeheartedly. read more

We can't thank Mike enough for going above and beyond and fitting us in on our RV trip. We lost our AC in 108 degree heat and Mike squeezed us in the next day and found the problem and took care of it pretty quickly. We previously called several other establishments and if we were able to talk to someone, they certainly couldn't even look at our vehicle for weeks. Mike answered the phone (that's the first thing that impressed me) and was so nice and accommodating and caring. He is truly a professional and such a nice, stand up person. His facility is not only charming, but nice and clean and his employees are very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend this establishment and only wish we lived closer so he could take care of all of our vehicles. read more

Referred by a friend and im glad i went with Mike, went the extra mile and got me back on the road in no time!

Oh my, I am so impressed with them! I was visiting Paso Robles for my birthday and my E400 Mercedes Benz cabriolet top would not work and in minutes they fixed it, and reset the drivers window so it work properly. They were so helpful! I wish they were located were I live in Orange County! The best service ever! read more

Mike is the man. Outstanding service and all around great guy! He knows so much about cars. He should get an honorary Ph.D. in automotive engineering. He is like a doctor explaining a terrible diagnosis, but when he is done, he makes everything feel OK because he has a great solution to your car problems. He is better than the back of the math book, you know, the place where you can find all the answers to the problems. This guy is like the Google of luxury cars. Ask him a question and you get a good answer. It's impressive. Keep doing what you do Mike! Ph.D. or not, you're the man. read more

I was driving thru Paso Robles when the alternator went out on my BMW. Mike at the Autobahn had it fixed the next day. Every other mechanic I called told me they were booked until later in the week. They were really professional and honest. I highly recommend! read more
