The best Porsche repair in the area. I would not take my car to the dealer if I did not have to. Honest, prices are fair and they don’t look for extra work to do that does not need to be done. Very through though.
Mike helped me out with getting my 40k maintenance done on my 2007 Carrera for about 25% the price of the dealership. Also, installed all new tires which I had shipped to him. They came in under budget and amazing service. The car has never ran so well since Ive owned it. Definitely will be coming back.
I reached out to Monty as he is well know in the Porsche community and has a great reputation for building high quality Air-Cooled Porsche engines. We talked and I ended up giving him the engine out of my 1971 911t restoration project.I asked him to do a zero-mile perfect restoration on the engine to match the rest of the car which is perfect so far!We worked together as I had the carbs restored as well as the fan and housing and I provided the SSIs, Monty Muffler, Web Cams, 911s Ps and Cs as well as some other components but they provided lots of misc. parts, oil lines, chains, time-certs, machining and cleaning, etc... as well as Rob did an awesome job assembling everything with very close attention to detail. These arent cheap but the work is impeccable and my hat is off to Redmond European, Monty, Rob and Mike for all of their hard work! I am sure there are a couple of others at the shop to thank but these are the guys I had personal interaction with and they were great to work with!I even have this engine on display in our company showroom right now for anyone who wants to come see it.Thank you all!Sincerely,Dan Reiss425 Motorsports
Fast friendly and professional people who are happy to help! Helped me remove a piece of broken window glass from underneath my parking e-brake switch on my 2013 Audi S4, which was preventing me from driving anywhere.
Wonderful shop and very friendly staff. I have them service all four of our cars. Very dependable and the cats are always done same day. Been using them for years.
The best European car service and repair shop, that uses the latest and greatest diagnostic equipment.
Very professional and knowledgable team
The customer service top notch. Work was good, and completed it n a timely manner. The labor charge of 150, an hour was a little steep, but you buy a German car you get stung.
We have two Audis in our house... Mike and the team are simply the best. They are thorough and quality driven....We wouldnt use anyone else ! They are the best!
I have had my car at Redmond European a number of times. Small repairs and big repairs. Every time I found them highly professional. First, discussing in detail the work that is needed and any options there might be. They are very knowledgable about the European cars they service and have qualified mechanics to address any issue. They provide detailed cost and time estimates. They always been excellent value. They would be the first repair shop I would call when needed.
They quickly solved the issue with my BMW and had the parts to get it done quickly. They were upfront with how much everything would cost including giving me an exact price. Mike was so accommodating, including dropping me off and picking me up. I am so glad I stumbled across them. I will definitely bring my car back here again.
Wow--I found a place I can count on for work on my 914. Absolutely professional, timely, experienced, cost effective and they seem to really care about what they do. I cant imagine a better place to care for my old Porsche (or any other of the makes they care for). Thanks Mike and the guys!! Tom Berg
Monty has done great work for me.Very knowledgeable and friendly.
The finest wine selection and great deli
Weve been to Redmond European in the past and always had a great experience. Late last year my wife brought our Audi in and they had the integrity to talk through whether it was worth doing work on it at its age. Most repair places Ive dealt with in the past would have found ways to bill the work, but Redmond European talked through the pros and the cons, and in the end, helped us make the decision. They were unbelievably honest and helpful throughout the process, and I wouldnt take a car to anyone else.
We have been using Redmond European for the last 5 years (for a couple of our cars) and wouldnt go anywhere else. Theyre honesty is refreshing and we love the quick turnaround. We HIGHLY recommend them!
I had my 1984 Porsche 911 engine rebuild there and Im very happy with the results. Great customer service and they always explain the issue at hand in great detail
We have had the pleasure of working with Monty and Mike for over 10 years, we have found them to be honest and straight forward about what our cars need, and dependably do high quality work. The team at Redmond European are key to keeping our Porsches on the road. We no longer work on the Eastside but continue to drive the extra miles to have our cars serviced by the team.
Outstanding service by Redmond European. The team is thorough, considerate of the options and goes out of their way to explain and be helpful. I trust them implicitly with my vehicle. They have high standards for service and they have always surpassed my expectations. Thank you!
Great service, great people, excellent choice for European auto service!
I am extremely pleased with my experience at Redmond European. Mike was upfront with me about the costs involved in repairing my BMW X3. He was very transparent about pricing, and tried to save me money wherever possible if quality parts were available by non-dealer suppliers. He even went so far as to combine tasks to save on labor costs. He didnt double charge for tasks accomplished in the same area of the vehicle, but kept it at a true hourly rate. Whenever something unexpected came up he was on the phone telling me what if was and what the options would be. The group made every effort to come up with an accurate estimate before proceeding with work. As far as the quality of work is concerned, my car hasnt run this well in years. Not even after it had been serviced for years by Seattle BMW (the dealership). Redmond European had found major problems with my car that the mechanics at Seattle BMW had missed time and time again. Its so rare to find such honesty and quality of labor in businesses these days. I will definitely be going back to Redmond European.
Excellent service. Mike has a very straight-forward, low-pressure way of explaining how to best maintain my car. He is easy to understand and work with! Thank you so much.
Thank you again Redmond European!! I have owned my 09 Audi S5 (4.2l w/man trans.) since new and my experience early on was not great as this was my first Audi and I had numerous troubles that were handled poorly by my original dealer. It now has more than 110k miles on it and ownership seems to improve every year, especially with these guys taking care of the issues that pop up.Mike and Monty at Redmond European have taken care of me and my S5 for a few years now and my latest EPC Fault was a scary one originally. The car would barely run and many systems could have been at fault. The car is again running perfectly after the diagnoses and repair, and I felt confident enough in the fix to drive my car to Bend, OR this past weekend.The cost of the repair was more than fair given the potential unknowns and I cant thank them and the mechanic (sorry I cant remember his name) enough. I love my Audi more than ever (not something I could day in the first few years of ownership), and I dont know what I could buy currently that would offer as much fun in a daily driver.I could afford a new car, but why would I do that when its paid for, its fun to drive, and Mike and Monty keep it running for me!Thanks Again!!
Redmond European provide a great service at a great value. They are clearly customer centric, trustworthy and committed to a long relationship with their customers.
Lacking attention to details when finishing a repair.I brought my car in for service and repair. When I picked it up, I noticed the following things.- The cover to the relay box was lying on the trunk floor, not put back in place.- The cover for the OBDI port on the passenger side was lying on the floor,- THe drivers side floor mat was moved to the passenger side and left there, not replaced.- In a previous clutch repair a few years ago, the heater blower motor failed to work, because they forgot to reconnect the wire.
Highly recommend Redmond European. Customer service is phenomenal and the work is top notch. These guys really do go above and beyond and they are super knowledgeable and passionate about the cars and the work they do. This is a place where you can hand off the keys to your and know that the guys working on it love it as much as you do and treat it accordingly. Thanks Mike and team!
Had a thorough inspection from Mike and team on my BMW oil leak issue. Not only the found out the main issue and fixed but also checked it for other priority items that needs attention. I will highly recommend them for your European car service. Super friendly, knowledgeable and transparent service
I have used Redmond European to service and maintain my Audis for 15 years...two of my Audis I kept for over 200,000 miles and both were serviced by Redmond European.I appreciate their honest approach, excellent communication, meticulous attention to detail, their guarantee on work performed, and their passion for ensuring your satisfaction.Ive sent other family and friends their way and all have been incredibly satisfied with their experience. They are truly exceptional to work with!
Took my wifes mini cooper that was acting weird. Wouldnt start with a new battery and jump starting was not easy as well. All the displays and switches were clicking and window going down by itself etc. Took it to Mike and they troubleshooted and fixed the codes and got it to working on the same day. Always answered by call and also followed up prompty. Happy with their service.
Although its never a great experience to discover the need to repair your car, I somewhat stumbled upon Redmond European by happenstance, and everything turned out great. Friendly folks, knowledgeable on my car (an Audi), and a big discount from dealer pricing with the same outcome. Im a happy customer.
Explained the issue and even provided pictures of it.
I have been having my Porsches and Audis serviced at Redmond European for years! They are reliable, thorough and fair and do it with a friendly smile!
Absolutely stellar shop. After taking my Audi to several other places and receiving inconsistent customer and vehicle service, I brought it to the place I should have from the beginning. Redmond European. Mike and the rest of the staff are top notch professionals. They are knowledgeable, courteous, and always go the extra mile to make sure that things are done right and the customer is happy. If you own a German car, or a car at all, and are lucky enough to live in the area, there is no other place you should take it.
Ive had the good fortune of working with Mike and the crew at Redmond European for several years and highly recommend them for anyone looking for an honest, fairly priced and high integrity repair shop. Its such a treat to not feel like I have to keep one hand on my checkbook when Im getting an estimate! Keep up the great work and fabulous customer service!
There is no higher version of client service than what Mike & Monty and the team offer at Red Euro. During this crazy time, their offer to collect & service vehicles and even run errands for clients is above & beyond, as always. I will always drive VWs so that I can keep coming back here!
I reached out to this firm regarding a car that was offered for sale in their area. The car fax indicated that they had provided service on the vehicle recently and I inquired as to what observations they may have made regarding the vehicles condition at the time. The representative was generous with their time and thorough with the information provided which acted as the basis of my decision making. The fact that I was contacting them from across the country (New Jersey) was no different than if I was a member of their own community which was greatly appreciated.
Very pleased. Will be returning again.
Fantastic place. I trust these guys more than any repair place Ive ever been to. Mike is always nice to speak to and is really up front and straight with you about what goes into your costs and services.
I have been working with Mike and Monty for years and they consistently do high quality work and are very knowledgeable about the idiosynchronies of the vehicles they service. They dont try to up-sell you and their shop rates are fair. I especially like the experience/knowledge they have about older cars and what makes sense to do to keep them going. Also fun to hop knob about cars in the wait room.
Brought a car in for a PPI. Monty and Mike got me in with very little notice and provided the objective review that I expected. The added bonus is shop talk about cars. Their knowledge is second to none and I always come away with new knowledge.
Although this is an honest and positive review, I find it surprisingly hard to write...You see, in the short while that I have known the guys, the inklings of a friendship has started to develop, and I dont like gossiping about my friends.It speaks for itself then, that doing business with Redmond European, is like that; doing business with a trusted friend. The trust level with the guys is just so high where I never worry about whether something was done, or done right. You see, these guys differ from your other friends in one important way; they really know what they are doing.Its not even like my car is that great, but it is special and dear to me for a number of reasons, and I think Mike, Marty and the guys get that this is my baby... I feel they share my enthusiasm for my little car and they will just always do the best job they possibly can.Telling you how great they are, is useless, just my opinion of my experiences... Go visit them and give them a try, just once... The price is probably going to be substantially less than any other specialist garage...I bet youll go back...
The most important quality in a service shop is honesty and integrity. I trust these guys. Not every job goes perfect, but in my experience they go the extra mile(s) to make sure the job gets finished properly. They are also very practical in their recommendations. In the course of a service job, they noticed the end of one plug wire was bad, rather than telling me I needed a whole new set, Monty fixed it with a part from his tool box, no charge.
Great guys always help out and won’t hassle you for small charges here and there!
Had an amazing experience with Redmond European, Mike and his crew are awesome. They were very courteous and professional in managing my cars service, gave an estimate which was spot on and also explained the work in detail which was required. Strongly Recommend to anyone having a german car.
My son just recently bought a used BMW and had quite a few issues from the start. I explained the story of what was happening and they got the car in working order from the first visit and seems to be holding together! Thanks Mike! From Mark and Edgar M.
Probably shouldnt be sending emails asking for good reviews from people you have screwed over.I took my car in for a thrown belt, they said there was probably debris in the engine and would require some more work. They forgot about the debris in the engine when they finally got the part to replace the drive belt and then clogged the oil intake with the debris on their test drive. Then told me to drive it home. They cost me THOUSANDS of dollars troubleshooting at another mechanic and refused to admit to their mistake or make it right.
I dropped my VW Routan off for service after frustrating experience at the dealer. Got a call from the owner saying that they dont work on Routans, but they have a close partnership with another service shop that does. They contacted the other shop, got me on their calendar, and even drove the van to them. Great service!
Took my 2005 Audi A4 Avant in a couple weeks ago for an alignment, got the car back and after a couple days of driving it, it still didnt feel quite right. I called Mike up and let him know my concerns. Mike told me to bring the car right back and and we would make it right he said. Thats exactly what the team there did, made it right, and at no extra charge. I trust Redmond European with my vehicle for any wants and needs I have. If Im not working on my car myself, there arent many other places I trust to take it. Redmond European is a place a trust completely. Thanks guys!
We have had a few opportunities to use the service of Redmond European and have not been disappointed. Monty, the owner and Mike at the front desk are very customer and service oriented and detailed in reviewing and understanding why one is bringing their car in for service. We see honesty and integrity.
Mike was really helpful and friendly. He kept me up to date on the status of the repair. The team did a great job, and even threw in a bit of maintenance for free.
Im hearing too many good things about this shop... TAKING MY CAR IN ON MONDAY!! I CALLED AND SPOKE WITH SOMEONE WHO SEEMED VERY HONEST... MY DAD is a fan... SO I TRUST THIS PLACE
Fantastic, fast service and up front honesty about parts and labor costs. No nickel and diming. Ill definitely be going back.
I called today trying to get a lug nut key replaced for my 05 Boxster. I had to be directed to an actual Porsche dealership for this SPECIFIC need, but the customer service was awesome especially since at the moment Im not in need of their services. He even told me to call him back if I wasnt able to get the help I was looking for. I could tell right away that this was a place Id want to go if I need anything in the future!
I have been taking my cars to Redmond European for a number of years now. Was referred by a friend who had been trying all the same German car repair places as I had been. Very happy with the service quality, and most importantly, the sensitivity to the budget. My only issue is they dont work on my Italian cars.....too bad.
Absolutely recommend coming here for your car troubles. I got my 2005 Audi A4 towed there after breaking down on my way to work, Mike worked with me to get a solution that would get my car back up and running that same day. Very professional and easy to work with!
I have been a costumer from Redmond European since 2015I keep coming back because this place is the real deal when in comes to a trusted shop to repair your car. The team is great, they are very knowledgeable, prices are fair or even cheaper than the dealer using the same OEM parts, and repairs are quick.I have always being happy with their service and the repairs are done right from the beginning.I highly recommend Redmond European for your Audi, VW, BMW, Porsche, or Mini needs!
Mike is a true expert. So knowledgeable.
I found the staff to be Audi experts and enthusiasts. I really appreciate that they went above and beyond to fix the car correctly, and communicated with me each step of the way. would highly recommend!
I have been taking my 911 to Redmond European for over 15 years and Monty and crew have always taken care of me. They treat my car like it was their own, providing clear assessment of its needs - both now and future things to do.
Outstanding experience working with Mike, Monty and the team. This was my first experience with the shop servicing our Audi Q5, and it will be the start of a longterm relationship.
Honest, transparent, expert, and reasonably priced.
Dont be afraidThis is the kind of shop I like - a well run independent shop, owner is active, service adviser is knowledgeable and communicates well. My sons car died and they set me up with a towing company they work with, made it easy. I have owned many VWs, Audis and Porsches (air cooled and water cooled) and I have worked at a dealership so I have a decent baseline of car and service department knowledge.
I have been taking my vehicle here for a while and RE has always been very helpful and professional. I would not want to go anywhere else for service after experiencing the helpfulness and knowledge that they have displayed every time I go in. Dont be afraid to give them a try, you will not regret it.
Friendly, efficient and straight-forward - this will be my go-to shop for all future repairs on my VW. Thank you!
Monty and his crew did a fantastic job with my vintage BMW. Their pricing is fair, they are honest and I would highly recommend them to any of my friends.
I appreciated the comprehensive review of the systems for my preventive maintenance like brake fluid water content, tire treads, etc. Nice folks.
Redmond European is great! Excellent service, great pricing, cool guys. They seem do care.
Great service level and expertise. I live outside of WA state and recently needed to get a PPI (pre-purchase inspection) done on an air-cooled Porsche that was for sale in the Seattle area. I chose Redmond European because they were positively mentioned for their work on a Porsche owner website.The PPI they conducted was extremely thorough (they uncovered numerous serious issues with the car I was considering). Both Mike and Marc are clearly extremely knowledgeable about these cars and were great to work with. Couldnt be more pleased.
Wouldnt take my car anywhere else. Mike is amazing and the quality of work is exceptional!
Honest good work. Reliable. Great follow throughI have a VW Westfalia, Porsche and a Suby outbackThese guys are the real deal
Great experience having my Mini Cooper fixed at Redmond European! Thank you Monty and Mike!
I have been using Monty and Mike for years. They are fast, affordable and thorough. They work on our BMW and VW street cars and have built three air cooled 911 motors for me. Monty can build a high rpm race 2 liter or a torquey 2.7 street motor. They even came to my rescue when my boat trailer brakes froze and repaired them for me as all the marine shops were three + weeks out. Additionally I have referred multiple friends to them and they have all been very satisfied with the work and continue using them for their service, repairs and upgrades on new cars as well as vintage BMWs, Porsches and Volkswagens. Thanks Monty and Mike.
We will never take our Porsche anywhere else!!! These guys are right on all the time. If they worked on muscle cars we would take our 69 Camero there also!
Friendly, quality service
Great service!
Good Guys, good service - I recommend them
Great service, great people.
