Once my BMW was out of the manufacturer’s warranty I wanted a non dealer place to take it. The guys at Avus are pros. I know I’m getting the proper service my car needs and I’m not being sold on things I don’t need.

Very professional, very thorough diagnosis, and a pleasure to do business with.

I took my Porsche in for service. Sandro was super nice when I first called in and, although they did my service, they were honest and recommended I take my car back to the dealer for a couple of things since its still under warranty. They had my car ready on time and the place is cute too! I would definitely recommend them!

Ive been bringing my newly acquired air-cooled Porsche in for a whole host of small to big modernization jobs and they have been exceptional. Fantastic customer service and I love seeing all the cars theyre working on. The work is top quality and you are paying for a high level of experience and expertise, well worth it!

Recently bought an e90 328i and was told by the indy shop that did my PPI and the BMW dealership that I needed a new oil pan gasket, which is not a cheap job. Came into avus expecting to pay around $1,500 to get that fixed, but they found that it was simply the cover cap for my oil filter housing that went bad, which made it a significantly cheaper fix. A lot of other shops wouldve just replaced what I thought was wrong with the car and charged me full price to change a part that was already in working order, but not Avus. They checked high and low on the car to see where the issue was actually happening. Shout out to Sandro and the boys for taking care of my car and keeping it running like butter! This will be the only shop I allow to touch my car from now on. 5 stars.

Great place to bring my 71 911. Great service and clean. Highly recommend for Porsche or BMW.

When it comes to being treated well, bring your BMW to the guys at Avus. They have been taking care of my car for over 10 years and it runs as well as the day I bought it (over 200K miles). Avus is the absolute best. Whether it is getting ready for a track day or getting a regular oil change, the Avus team is always friendly, attentive and provide fast service. I wont let anyone else work on the car. I feel a part of the Avus family and so will you.

I have been taking my BMW here for some time now. Always great, knowledgeable service at a fair price.

Simply the best BMW shop in southern California. Avus takes real pride in their work and their knowledge is unparalleled. If you care about keeping you BMW in tip-top shape, you cant do better than Avus.

Wow, what a company. on less than 24 hours notice, they agree to review a local car for me to buy and save me a ton of time and trouble by letting me know that there is no way I should buy the car I was sold on purchasing long distance.Great service companies are hard..no..IMPOSSIBLE to find. These guys are good! Now I really believe all of the positive messages.Dan from Naples Florida

Best shop I have found in SoCal. In fact, I live over 40 miles from the shop and I still take my cars here because they are that good! I highly recommend Avus for anyone that cares about their car running the way a BMW is supposed to run.

My MINI Cooper was running fine but when I took it in to a local MINI dealer for regular maintenance they told me I needed major repairs (quoted me $3k). Brought it to Avus for a second opinion after reading positive reviews and found out no repairs were needed! The service manager, Amir, treated me with respect and honesty which seems to be sorely lacking in this this industry. I love my car and hope the folks at Avus can help me enjoy it for many more years to come. Thanks again!

Car runs better now at 113,000 miles compared to when I bought it at 67,000 miles. And no more permanent service engine light! Worth the drive from LAX.

Had my BMW towed to and repaired by Avus for the first time and was really impressed. The shop is immaculate, the staff took a lot of time explaining what needed to be fixed in a clear, concise manner. I think they were very detail oriented and the repair fees were reasonable. Will definitely use their services again.

Great place to service your mini cooper!

The only word that comes to mind when i think of Avus is family, they treat you like family, sometimes even better. Theyre quick, clean, and professional. Truely the greatest auto shop Ive ever been to

My BMW doesnt go anywhere else. When it is in town, at least once a year, it is the first place it stops to have everything else checked. Service is awesome, quality of work the same.

Best BMW mechanics in Southern California 10 Stars. Pricing, Skill and professionalism.

Took my 335i into Avus with various issues. Amir and the team were very friendly, knowledgeable, and concise. They fixed the issues with my car and worked well with my aftermarket warranty company.Only hiccup was a delay in getting my car back due to the wrong parts being ordered initially.Overall it was a great experience and I plan on coming back for future repairs.

I was lucky to find Avus. Excellent service in Mini and very agile to solve problems.

I have been in this business 47 years...Started as a tech at the dealer then made parts my specialty for some notable corporations.There is millions of people that try to make this complex world of automobiles a specialty. We live in a very highly technical world that frankly leaves the majority of shops and dealers asking why or how?, and not repairing the vehicle properly. In 47 years, I would make Avus Autosport the absolute top repair facility anywhere. Yes, I take my Porsche there..oh yes. They are the only place I will go.And I have sad stories from other shops I leave behind. Do you want to smile when you drive your luxury car, then do yourself a favor...go to Avus and have peace of mind.

Honest BMW repair and service

One of the worst experiences that caused my car to be completely nonoperational. Sold me on a major floor repair job for my e46 M3 and walked away from any responsibility when the floor of my car separated with gaps as large as my hand across the entire floor, right where my child sat, several months after the repair. True, the car was in a rear-end collision after the floor repair at Avus, but because their job was so botched, the areas they reinforced caused other parts of the floor to split. After inspecting the car, both my insurance company and BMW of NA determined the cause for the floor separation was the repair at Avus, and not the accident. Throughout this process Andrew talked a big game of doing anything to make me, as their valued customer, happy and paying us a fair market value for the car. Well, when BMW produced their findings, Andrew tried to lowball me with a blue book value for the car and did not stand behind his word at all. I am, a year after this botched job at Avus, is still stuck without my car. Never go here for any major work! Dealership or another shop (M Shop) would do better work and stand behind it.

First of all two words, CUSTOMER SERVICE!! The first time I brought my car to them I spoke with Andrew right when they were closing. Not only did he keep the shop open and wait for me, he even offered to come to where I was if needed. I got a call from him early the next day explaining what was going on and they had my M3 back to me that night in better condition than when I bought it! Every other time Ive brought the car in they have gone above and beyond to make sure everything is right. I couldnt recommend them more. Amir will make sure you know exactly whats going and how long everything will take and the techs usually have it done sooner. If you care about your vehicle then dont take it anywhere else.

This place was great! Highly recommend for your BMW service.

Great for repair on your 8 Series car.

Very friendly, really nice shop, very knowledgeable and helpful

The best! Completely trust them.

Well, I now live in San Diego and have moved back to my hometown since my last review of January 2011.I recently had to say goodbye to my old 2001 BMW 330 due to a freak accident while visiting Colorado. My car saved my life even though I hit an elk going 60mph at night in minus 2 degrees. The amazing part of this story is that I was able to continue my drive another two hours. I ended up driving the car back to San Diego but unfortunately the insurance declared the car a total loss. It was a sad ended to a car that I had since 2001...Anyway, I found a replacement 2004 BMW 330 ZHP edition in San Diego. Before purchasing the car I had a local tech at a BMW dealership perform a pre-purchase inspection of the car. He found a laundry list of parts that needed immediate attention such as replacing the seals in the differential that was leaking. He informed me that the oil filter housing was leaking and the gasket needed to be replaced. Also the cyclone oil separator needed to be replaced with all of the various hoses. I was told that the control arm bushing needed to be replaced as well as both control arms. The long story is that with parts and labor I was looking at well over $6,000 dollars. Now I as able to get the car at a very low price but still had to factor in the necessary repairs.I ended up purchasing the car and decided to make an appointment with Avus once again as I had in the past. To me its worth the drive to Avus to have the experts inspect my new car. During the drive I was hoping that it was the typical dealership trying to up-sell me a bunch of service and parts that were not needed. When I arrived they were waiting for me and took the car immediately and put it up on the rack. After spending some time looking at it, Andrew showed me what was wrong with the car and what repairs needed immediate attention. Both Andrew and Amir knew that I made the drive from San Diego and that any repairs would have to be completed the same day. As it turns out, more than half of the repairs that the dealership said needed to be done were not needed at all. The control arm bushing/arms were fine. The oil separator did not need to be replaced, just one hose and the oil filter housing was not leaking at all. Again, it was just another hose that needed to be replaced. With this good news I decided to have piece of mind and have a full Inspection II service along with the differential repair. Andrew had two of his techs working at various times together to make sure all of the work would be completed for me. All of the parts needed to repair my car including rebuilding the cooling system where on the shelf at his shop. He even had a replacement shift knob that was needed! Heres the best news, it all came together and and my out the door price was no where close to the $6,000 quote from the dealership. Im writing this review after two weeks of driving the car and everything is great with no issues! Whether you live a mile or two from Avus or over an hour or more away, it is worth the drive to have the crew at Avus service your car. The staff at Avus spends the time to thoroughly explain any issues and recommend which repairs are necessary and which ones can be postponed. If you are looking for the best quality BMW service at fair prices, you owe it to yourself to give Avus Autosport a try!Jeff L.
