Heard about Altered Components through a local FB group and decided to bring my car here for general maintenance. I’ll just say that every other German/European shop couldn’t take me in on short notice and Josh was more than happy to take care of my vehicle on a Saturday while he was dealing with other clients and vehicles. We talked for a good 30 minutes after and I know that his knowledge of the brand is top tier had me questioning what I really know of the brand haha. Looking forward to getting more things done in the near future at Altered Components.

I recently had extensive maintenance and performance upgrades done at Altered Components , and I couldn't be happier with the results. The team, though small with just two men, is meticulous in their work. The owner, Josh, communicated effectively throughout the entire process, making sure I was informed every step of the way.
Josh's honesty and deep knowledge of Audi/VW vehicles really stood out. The pricing was very fair, and the quality of work was outstanding. Despite having to drive over an hour to get there, I am more than willing to make the trip again in the future. They have definitely earned a lifetime customer in me. Highly recommended for anyone with VAG cars!

This has been long over due but really just wanted to give Altered Components a well deserved review. Many shops have been reluctant to take on some of the challenges that come with a modified Porsche Cayenne turbo on a 5 inch lift built to overland. However, the guys at Altered components were more than willing to take a look at my vehicle and perform the work. I had gotten my CV axle, upper control arm ball joints replaced and a few months ago an oil change.Josh is great in answering questions and has a wealth of knowledge with cars, especially VWs. Thankfully for me the older Cayenne model has some of the similarities of the Touareg. A perfectionist at his craft.Mike is the same, a true car enthusiast who is engaging and willing to help. There were a few times after install Mike came by to check on the vehicle for certain noises and concerns, only to determine it was something else.Modified cars you deal with modified issues lol. Looking forward to taking on future projects and maintenance with these guys.

These guys are masters of their craft and their work is second to none. They found in hours what other mechanics couldn't figure out in days, if you want the job done right the first time bring it to the pros!

I had heard about Josh and Altered Components through several friends in Charlottesville. After buying my Fiat 500 Abarth, I quickly realized there was noone around that was willing to work on it. All said it required to much to do. I ended up doing most of the work myself but thought I would ask Josh if he was willing to replace the clutch and throw out bearing. He quickly obliged and quoted me. Dropped it off, couple days later, done! He even adjusted the quote because he completed it faster than expected. Honest dude. You can look at the plethora of 5 start reviews and see his reputation. He lives up to it for sure. Best around!Service: Auto maintenance

5/5!I highly recommend Altered Components when I need anything done to my vehicle. Josh is a very professional, knowledgeable and friendly technician. He was able to diagnose my issue and take the steps to resolve the issues as soon as possible.I went in and asked Josh to diagnose a steering/clunking issue, and Josh was able to figure out that the steering rack on my 2019 VW MK7.5 GTI was going bad. He was able to price me out the parts/labor and was able to fix the issue with no hiccups!Josh was also very communicative and orient with me while I was trying to describe my issues as well.Overall, I'd highly recommend bringing your European car here for any service that is needed. He'll get it done! 5/5.Services: General repairs & maintenance
