Hands down the best experience I have ever had. Knowledgeable, kept me in the loop the whole time, didnt replace anything that honestly didnt need to be replaced, fair prices, fair rates, top quality work. Friendly and really great place to take your vehicle. My 2003 911 Porsche has never been treated so well. It is the only place I will be taking my cars from now on.

Dave at The German Auto Doctor is amazing I have a 2008 Mercedes C300 that needed some repairs. He was able to give me a awesome quote for the amount of work that my vehicle needed and he was very professional. Dave really takes the time to make sure his customers are taken care of and goes above and beyond to help them. Him and his team take pride in their work and it shows. I recommend The German Auto Doctor to anyone who has any European car that needs service or repairs.Five stars to Dave and his team thank you for helping me and fixing my car right.

I love this place! Dave helped my husband out with his AC a while back and he told me to go see The German Auto Doctor for my Z3. This is a small family business that is very professional. I was totally taken care of. The pricing was absolutely fair. The service however, was over the top! He seriously just handled everything for me. I will never use anyone else. Just go here....thats all :)

The real deal. Fair hourly rate, especially for quality of service. Their reputation preceeds them, would be worth the drive from 30+ miles in any direction. Thanks Dave and co

I was a Rolls Royce, Land Rover tech for 40 years. I now drive a 2015 Porsche Macan Turbo. I changed out the front seats and ran into a problem. Called many shops in the Los Angeles area to try and get a answer to my problem and then I found Dave at German Auto Doctor. He was the most knowledgeable tech I have talked to in a long time. With his help I sorted my problem. And would highly recommend Dave and his shop to anyone that needs any thing done to there German car. Thanks Dave

My experience with Dave was top notch. Im not very comfortable taking my BMW to be worked on anywhere BUT a BMW service center. I was referred to The German Auto Dr. by a friend and decided to meet Dave. He proved to be EXTREMELY knowledgeable, polite and professional. As is such, I had him replace my cracked radiator, valve cover, headlight control unit and head light. Dave also performed services well above and beyond that which he quoted--FREE OF CHARGE! All of this work was done at a fraction of the cost that BMW would have charged. Car is running like a beast now. He has earned my trust and a client for life.

My 2012 VW CC had issues with the AC compressor. After taking it to Neftin Westlake a year prior and replacing the same part, Neftin would not honor the year warranty since it was a week overdue. Neftin said it was my alternator that froze up causing my compressor to malfunction and would have cost me three times as much to replace. Also because of this diagnosis it was neftins reasoning they couldnt honor the year warranty. I didnt believe Neftin and refused to give them any more business.As a result I found the German Auto Doctor here in Simi. After reading the reviews and having an additional issue with the fuel injectors i decided to take it in. Dave and his team are FAIR, HONEST, and REASONABLE on PRICING. I told them what happened at Neftin Westlake and they took me under their wing to help me out. They fixed my compressor, fuel injectors and trunk all at a VERY FAIR price. ALL completed in 24 hours. BTW they checked my alternator and it was FINE!Cheers to Dave and his team. TOP NOTCH SERVICE. Will definitely use them going forward. Thanks GUYS.

I would recommend The German Auto Doctor to anyone without a doubt! Very professional and reliable. The best customer service and reasonable prices. He is very knowledgeable and honest. I had previously taken my vehicle to another mechanic shop and had my water pump replaced. 4 months later it started leaking again. I took my Audi A4 to David and he quickly inspected my vehicle and showed me how they cracked the housing when they originally installed it.If you are looking for an honest reliable mechanic, I would recommend David in a heart beat.He will be my go to auto shop from now on!!!

Last year I purchased my life-long dream car, a 2004 Porsche 911. I was able to find a pristine model at a local dealership. The car drove fine, no issues until I spotted a small oil leak. I took it in to Dave and Mondo - they diagnosed the problem as a main rear seal and suggested I do the 30K maintenance since there was no evidence of it having been done. They were awesome explaining the entire process and called me over to inspect the seal failure. They also mentioned that the clutch was worn down. They repaired it all and the car now drives like its brand new - the clutch is smooth, the power band is noticeably better. Better than when I drove it off the lot. They were honest and fair at a reasonable price. Great guys and I will never take this car anywhere else.

Dr. Dave is the man! Honest, fair and a great mechanic! When you have to rely on someone else’s opinion of what is wrong and what needs to be fixed, this is the place to take your car. He’ll diagnose, give you the fix and won’t take advantage of your pocket book! I highly recommend Dr. Dave!!! I send all my family, friends and even people I randomly meet that like my car to Dave. Everyone says that he’s awesome to deal with and does great work!

I highly and completely recommend German Auto Doctor.Last year I decided to buy a 20 year old Mercedes Benz G Wagen. It is getting to the point where collectors are buying these cars. It came with the expected issues of a 20 year old car, valve cover gasket was leaking, or was running g rough, the transmission shifter would not go into the lower gears, the doors would not lock and unlock with the remote, the moonroof did not open, and and few other things.I checked around my town to see if anyone had experience working on these cars. I had no luck. I ended up at the Mercedes dealer. I ended up waiting for over a month and stopped by a couple of times to check on the repairs. Both times they had me talk to the lead mechanic. He complained that they did not have the diagnostic software and that they were trying this and that and that they had called Germany and some other excuses. I ended up with an enormous bill and only about three repairs.A few weeks later, the car started running poorly again. I took it to another mechanic and he told me the work don’t at the dealer was shoddy. He kept it two weeks and I got another large bill.O bounced around a couple of other mechanics and a couple of more large bills without any success.Then things got very scary–the transmission stopped shifting. Went back to the same shops and more bills without a solution .Then one day I cane across an advertisement for the German Auto Doctor. David was the answer to my prayers. David diagnosed all the issues and went out of his way to find the difficult to find parts that were needed–HE FIXED ALL THE PROBLEMS. He was communicative through the repair process. And the bill? Completely reasonable. Completely professional. I am so happy I found the German Auto Doctor. One day I was out on the road and had a problem with the window not going up. Over the phone he gave me a fix that worked–AMAZING! Now he does all the work on my other cars. I would not go anywhere else. Now I recommend him to all my friends. I give them the highest recommendation. If you have a German car or any Europpean car, bring it to David. He is the best–THE VERY BEST!

I recently purchased my first Audi after being an ex bmw tech and only driving bmws for the past decade or more, i went searching a repair shop that was more familiar with Audis than I was. Thats when i found The German Auto Doctor. We got to talking for awhile and Dave even let me put my car up on the rack to inspect it together. Long story short, after being in the business myself i felt very comfortable with letting Dave do the work on my vehicle. It was easy to tell that he knows his stuff and is very knowledgeable and will do the best to repair your vehicle the right way. On top of that the prices were beyond fair and the service was great. Ive found my goto shop for things that I cant do myself in the garage.
