This guy saw me coming. Price hiking to the fullest! Came in for oil leak... a month later and $4000 later oil was leaking immediately after I brought it home! Stay away from this place! He charges astronomically high per hour, and does what he can to not tackle core issues so you continue to spend spend spend.... Very unfortunate and dishonest from this guy!

Al the owner was very helpful and was able to get my vehicle taken care of same day. The price was reasonable and service was quality. They provide you with a list of parts and labor before you pay.

So I called them the other day to see if they could do a transmission fluid change and whoever picked up the phone went “no sir, absolutely not” and hung up. ?

I was looking for an auto repair shop that specialized in German cars to fix my BMW 328i A/C and came across S&K. The owner Al is very personable, professional and a man of principle. Al had his mechanic run a diagnostic test and gave me a free estimate. I then called another shop for a second quote which was lower so naturally I took my car to the second shop who was not able to recharge my A/C and said there were other problems that would require more money to fix. Long story short, I ended up taking my car back to S&K who solved the problem and finished the job in a couple of hours and my A/C system now runs nice and cool. But the reality here is that Al provided the entire service free of charge. He said when his mechanic initially ran the free diagnostic test his guy had forgotten to reinstall the gas valve and for that reason he would not charge me for the entire service which would have set me back a few hundred dollars. I offered to pay but Al said it's cool so I accepted. It's difficult to find a highly skilled mechanic you can trust and Al's integrity won me over as a new customer. I appreciate his honesty and professionalism. Thank you again Al!

Wouldn't recommend bringing your car here. I brought my diesel to get a diagnostic check when I bought the car, and they did that but only just ran the diagnostic tool. They charged me for 2 hours of labor, but after waiting an hour and a half they didn't do anything and finished the checkup on my car in less than a half hour. I brought my car to multiple other mechanics since this place and nobody has made the same recommendation that I need to replace my suspension, highly suspect that the business owner and mechanic were trying to get me to pay for a necessary service and parts.

Super expensive, for people who make more than 200k/year only. 3 hours diagnostic costs at least $700. They don't need you, you need them kind of attitude. They might have experience that kind of business model is for baby boomers gen. If you have a lot of money then this is a good place for your car.

I brought my 10yo Mercedes to S & K after getting an outrageous quote for maintenance from a dealership, over $9k. S & K did a full inspection, identified the same issues, and gave honest input, completing the repairs for less than half the quote I got from the Benz dealership. The team was also very communicative throughout, letting me know progress updates and giving me proactive information. The crew even traveled to get parts for my car when they had none on hand. Highly recommend this garage - great service and their handiwork has my car running smoother than it has in years - literally.

It took almost two weeks to get a brake estimate. Price was almost double of other mechanics!

So my friend brought an Audi 2017 here to diagnose and they did fix the car according to recommendations. The reason why it was my best friend went and not myself it was because at the time, it was still his car and it was transferred to me after repairs. The engine light was still coming up and they said not to worry, it was only the intake manifold sensor so they changed it and the engine light was still on. They said it was just because they front lights were not the originals but this was not true. When I got the car transferred to me they told me I needed to have the engine light to come off otherwise I can't pass inspections. So I went to a shop around my place and they said that the actual intake manifold was destroyed and needed to be replaced. Once that was replaced the new shop told me that there was something wrong with my brake system and this place supposedly changed the whole system so they found some problems here and wanted to charge me a lot of money to fix it. I have no idea how they can get away with this, I couldn't go back to them because my friend who transferred the car to me is in the Navy and another state so please be careful. I won't trust this place and how they inspect cars. This was last year, I was able to find the receipt to see what type of work they did and I wanted to be sure of what I was talking about. If I would have known that the manifold had to be replaced I wouldn't have taken the car, it was a $4K job. I just wanted to share for any new costumers to beware. ThanksServices: Engine repair

My son is in Southern California for college & his Audi A3 had some significant engine issues pop up. Being out of state I looked through reviews trying to find a european auto shop that we could trust... the reviews from Yelp and other sites are completely accurate. Al is a great communicator. All work from pictures to written information are clearly given so we knew what was happening with our car, even though we are over a thousand miles away. They were able to take care of the car and get it back into running condition. S&K will be our go to moving forward. I appreciate S&K and can't say enough good things about how we were treated.

I recently had my Audi Q5 serviced by S&K German & European for the first time. I was impressed with their sense of urgency and expediency in communication and care of my car's needs. I texted the business and they responded within 10 minutes. They were able to prepare a general estimate and answered questions, all while I was out of state. While I was traveling, Albert (owner) pre-ordered my parts to ensure I could get in as soon as I returned. Which was critical because I had a short turnaround time to get my car and leave again. They sent me pics of the actual situation for assessment and support of their findings to ensure we could make an informed decision to: Replace brakes and rotors vs shaving of rotors etc. Not only did I receive premium service, they have the latest tools for diagnostics, verification AND they saved us up to at least $800 let alone the convenience and cost of time! Being in the corporate world and handling enterprise accounts, I recognize what excellence in care means. It is defined by taking care of your customer and looking out for their best interest within honest transparency. That is how you keep a customer for life. We will be back. Thank you Juan and Albert for fixing my baby!

S & K German & European Auto Repair: What a find. I needed a real mechanic. Someone to trust. Al's that guy. My car: A 2011 Diesel VW that had the VW Diesel Fix and gets tons of city and freeway miles daily. The dealer was never able to fix a dpf filter issue which was a nightmare requiring service every 5,000 miles. S & K did what the Dealer could not. They replaced the dpf filter for a reasonable amount of money. They diagnosed and helped with a few other issues and they fixed my car on time and under budget. I am so grateful to have S & K and Al maintaining my car. This car now runs on cooking oil (not fossil fuel) so I want to keep it for a long time. Thanks Al and everyone at S & K. See you next time. You're the best. Lynn

997.1 was diagnosed correctly and repaired at a reasonable cost. Will definitely be going back again.
