Why Volkswagen owners choose us over the dealer
Diagnosis before parts
We find the actual cause first. Most complex diagnostics and second opinions are resolved in 1 to 3 hours, which costs less than replacing parts on a guess.
OEM or equal quality parts
We prefer genuine OEM parts, or parts that match their quality, along with factory spec fluids, so every repair goes right and lasts.
Photos and video of everything
Every visit includes a free 200+ point digital inspection with photos and video sent to your phone, so you see what we see.
24 month / 24,000 mile warranty
Our workmanship warranty covers most repairs. Ask us about the details for your job.

Volkswagen service FAQ
Will servicing my Volkswagen here affect the factory warranty?
No. You can have maintenance done at any qualified independent shop. We follow the factory schedule, use OEM parts and fluids, and document every visit. Every maintenance and repair visit is also reported to CARFAX, so your service history stays complete for resale, just like a dealer.
Do you service DSG transmissions?
Yes. DSG fluid and filter service is due on a set schedule, and we keep it on track. We also diagnose and repair shifting problems.
