German Automotive Repairs In Pasadena, CA

“I have been a consistent Mercedes Benz owner since 1984 when I bought my first, a 300 Turbo Diesel that I kept for many years, until a LA Fire Truck took it out one fine day on the I-10 fwy. That car saved my life. Since then I have bought a New Mercedes for my wife and for myself many times over. I currently drive an 2010 S-550 that was being maintained by the folks at Plati's German Auto Service in Pasadena when I was informed that they were closing down their business. He must of saw me blink many times over because he immediately suggested I take my car to Victor at A German Auto on Foothill Blvd. in Pasadena. Many of Plati Motor's customers have switched to A German Auto because you find the same decades long experience repairing and maintaining the Finest Automobile in the World, Mercedes Benz. I have found great comfort in Victor maintaining my S-550. It must be reiterated that when Victor is referred a customer from another Mercedes Technician with Decades of experience in Nick Plati, that is a very strong recommendation indeed!”

“VICTOR is one of a kind. I found what I've been seeking for years: a highly skilled BMW/Mercedes Benz mechanic that is honest to a fault! I prefer to buy used BMW 3 series. He worked on my 2007 330i (which met a tragic end on the 210), and currently works on my 2008 328i (LOVE this car Premium package and sport package - won't by another Beemer without both). He even helped me buy my current car. When I found a 3 series that I might purchase, I drove it over to the shop. Victor put them up on the lift and did all the diagnostics to see if there were hidden problems. Victor never charged me for that service and I bought a car that I truly love, that was spot on mechanically, and runs like BMW advertises: an Ultimate Driving Machine. If you own an out of warranty BMW or Mercedes Benz and don't go to Victor, when you get taken to the cleaners by your mechanic, don't blame me.”

“I was combing through Yelp for another matter when I decided to see what people say about my marvelous automobile technicians, A. German Auto Services. Just as expected, almost all mention how amazing they are, especially the proprietor extraordinaire Victor.

My brother and I both bought new Mercedes Benz E350's on the same weekend back in 2006. We both had our vehicles serviced at the dealer where we had purchased them. At the time I was a single mother raising two sons and out of habit I always consult my elder brother before making a major purchase. However, after a year or so I noticed my brother no longer serviced his car at dealer. I asked him about it, thinking he may have gone to another dealer. He informed me that as a result of the amount driving he was doing for work he could no longer afford the time it took him to check his car in for maintenance and wait for a rental at the dealer. A friend of his who also drove a Mercedes told him of his mechanic who was right here in Pasadena who accommodated his own schedule and would have the rental car people on time to pick him up. So my brother decided to try Victor, and my brother has used him ever since. I was little bit hesitant, so it took me a few more years to try A. German Auto.

When my car was about 5 years old and the warranty expired, something broke while driving on the Pasadena Freeway. I called the dealer and they told me to have the car brought in, but they could not tell me when they would have it ready. I called my brother and he had Victor call me immediately. Victor calmly, and in that soothing way of his, informed me that though he did not know exactly what the problem was, what ever it may be he was confident I would not be out of my car for no more than two days. He was as good as his word. I came in around 3pm and had my car ready by the same time the next day.

Now, I drive no where near the amount of miles my brother does, but I did some investigating, being the bookkeeper that I am. I compared my maintenance and repair bills between my vehicle and that of my brother's for the first 5 years of ownership and found that, even though he had over twice the miles, his expenses for vehicle maintenance where comparable to my dealer serviced car. Since my first experience with Victor, I have had no reason to go back to the dealership and pay they're inflated rates.

Today my car is ten years old and has less then 100,000 and I have no reason to buy a new car in the foreseeable future, not when I have and found an extraordinary technician in Victor and his A. German Auto Staff.”

“Good service and helpful advice!”

“This mechanic is very honest, I took a car for assessment and he gave very true assessment and that helped me make right decision. Thanks again. We need people like you in our community.”

“Great guys and prices. Victor and Carlos are very friendly. I take my 2007 S600 V12 Benz.”

“Victor is one of the most honest mechanics I have ever met. One of those guys who'd make a lot more money, but would rather steer you to a better solution. I have taken every German car I've owned to Victor and I won't go anywhere else.”

“Repaired my E320 overheating engine. Very reasonable rates and good service. Victor calmly explains the issues and the options. Great team of mechanics.”

“they were reasonably priced and done in a timely manner. thanks very much, I will return in the future for sure.”

“Extremely Satisfied ! I have brought both my cars, 560 SEL & S 420 to Victor for the last five years. The service is wonderful. He is very honest and will tell you exactly what is wrong with your car without ever trying to perform unnecessary repairs. The best part is that you will never pay dealer repair prices. I highly recommend this place if you have a Mercedes. ED from Glendale”
