⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Service from a Truly Exceptional Mechanic I've been bringing my BMW X3 to Black Forest Werkshop for the past six years, and I can’t recommend Lee highly enough. He’s not only a highly skilled mechanic, but also an honest and thoughtful business owner who truly cares about his customers. Over the years, Lee has consistently provided quality repairs at very reasonable costs. He never cuts corners, and his work has always been reliable. On more than one occasion, my car had issues that were hard to diagnose—but Lee stuck with it, digging deep until the problem was solved. His persistence and attention to detail gave me complete peace of mind. Now that I’ve sold my BMW, I won’t be visiting the shop anymore, which is honestly a little bittersweet. It’s hard to find someone as trustworthy and knowledgeable as Lee. If you drive a BMW and want a friendly, honest, and experienced mechanic, give Lee at Black Forest Werkshop a call. You—and your car—will be in excellent hands.

Had a great experience working with Lee. Worked on my Mini, helped me with the insurance company, and it's nice to support a good local small business that specializes in this type of car. Lee also helped me with finding other resources, for a different car. Good guy. Will use again.

Really appreciate Lee and his team for doing honest work at a very fair rate. Had my engine rod bearings replaced, as well as transmission service and differential too.

Lee’s Black Forest Werkshop has been my go to shop for German cars for about a decade. He’s the type of guy that will tell you, “everything is fine on your car right now so you should sell it. If you keep it you’ll be bringing it in here a lot more often.” Other shops would just let you go and then have you bring it back over and over. Or sell you services that you really don’t need. Lee truly cares about his customers and provides great service at reasonable prices.

I really wanted to like this place but after realizing that they are just trying to continually find problems with my vehicle and charge me service fees. If I don't complete the work, I unfortunately have to guide other customers to steer clear of this place. It's really too bad.

I had a horrible experience at the Mercedes deal. When I came to Black Forest, Lee put my mind at ease, did professional work at a reasonable price, and I have had the opportunity to recommend Black Forest to many of my friends with Mercedes. I'm a very happy customer

I wish there were more businesses that operated like this. I couldn't be more thankful. I had reserved a rental car.. to drop off my Mini Cooper Countryman to be repaired. The owner, Lee took me to the rental car place and they didn't have a rental car that I reserved. So he drove me back to the shop and they immediately worked on my car so I wasn't just left sitting and stranded. It's just really nice and refreshing to know you're dealing with an honest mechanic. Lee will discuss your vehicle with you... And give you the details. It's reassuring. I highly recommend if you have a foreign car and you get in a predicament. Take it to Black Forest! Thanks again Lee! 😀😀😀 Jerry Gissiner

Definitely a gem! Unfortunately now a days it’s not often you come across such genuine, authentic and honest people like Lee. Lee is the owner and I sat with him most of my time there with such pleasure hearing his stories. I enjoyed every moment! I had to get a diagnosis on my BMW and it was such a quick minor fix as I waited less than an hour! I truly appreciate him and Sydney! Definitely a customer for life! Thank you so much for a stress free Valentines Day! Blessings to you all! ❤️😊✝️

I took my daughter's Mini Cooper into them. Met the owner. He genuinely is an absolute honest owner. The fact that instead of just jumping into an expensive repair that i thought we needed, but may not actually be needed, he offered a lower cost solution, is awesome. I can not speak highly enough of Lee and his team.

I would not trust my Mini Cooper S to anyone but Lee and his crew at Black Forest. Lee is a class act! Very professional, personable and above all else, trustworthy. He really cares about his customers and his team of Mini experts have kept my 2006 car running like new.

I needed specific transmission bolts for my Mercedes to finish the job and came here on December 24th, when most of other places were closed. Lee was very friendly and kind, and helped me get those bolts by driving to their warehouse to get them. He quoted me 3 times less than a stealership for the same genuine bolts, and it turned out to be even less than if I had ordered it online too. The point is that Lee and his team are good people that don’t try to screw you, so I’m sure it translates to all the work they do. He was also very knowledgeable about the transmission during our little chat. I highly recommend this business for all your euro car repairs!

The team at Black Forrest again exceeded my expectations on the recent repair of the front sensors on my 535i today 3/11/25. I have been a returning customer at Black Forrest over the past 37 years, eight different BMWs. Honesty, unmatched experience and professionalism have been consistent throughout my experience. Good people to work with.

Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Helped me with multiple issues with my BMW X5. Provided me with insight on how to fix other issues with the car if I wanted to do it myself. Definitely recommend Black Forest!

This is a team of BMW experts. Better yet, a team of BMW aficionados. They told me they all go to BMW conferences and drive BMWs themselves. Have always had excellent service and paid reasonable prices. Truly outstanding

Lee and his team at Black Forest Werkshop are excellent and highly trustworthy. I'd been seeing him for repairs on my 2011 BMW 3 Series and could always trust that his diagnosis was accurate and that he wasn't trying to nickel and dime me to get me to spend more money at his shop. I felt confident that he and his team would recommend the repairs they would do to their own personal vehicles. Very glad to have found this shop.

Nothing but good things to say about Lee and his business, Black Forest Werkshop. I was referred to him, and it was the best referral ever. Incredibly knowledgeable about all years of BMWs. Great staff, great mechanics and a great owner. Warning: he will talk your ear off if you start a conversation.

I've had multiple issues arise that come with owning an older/ higher mileage BMW 135i and the people at Black Forest always do the best professional work that I've ever experienced, and at an honest price. They are not only very accommodating, but are also very pleasant to speak with. Every issue has been laid out in extreme detail in a typically digestible manner for the complexity that some cars have. I'm unsure what all makes that they operate on, but I know they work with quite a lot of Minis and BMWs. I would easily recommend them to anyone in need of quality or specific care for the more 'delicate' and complex luxury cars models.
