My car started to leak coolant after adding coolant at BMW dealership. It was always overfilled whenever I visited there. I suspect they might tried damage my car. So, I looked for trustworthy mechanic around my area. And, I found this place by getting recommendation from Bimmerfest. Gabor looked at my car and he found my radiator was broken and show me how it was leaking. I could see which part was broken and which part he will fix. I was low in my budget, so I asked Gabor to let me bring my parts to lower the cost and he accepted it. So, I could fix my car with very economic price. Around $200 for Gabor and around $160 for parts. I would recommend this place to anybody who has european cars. Trustworthy!

We have taken our vehicles to Das Mechanic for a few years now and have always been impressed by their quality of work. Their level of knowledge on these vehicles is next to none in the Madison area. Thank you to the team at Das Mechanic for keeping our vehicles in their best shape!

I brought my 2006 VW Jetta 2.0t with a suspected hydraulic leak in the slave cylinder. It was at another shop, and after $850 it had the same issue. Das Mechanic quickly diagnosed the car correctly and with an accurate and fair estimate. My car is slightly modified, and I was given the option to go with a heavier clutch and it's perfect. Also needed some other minor maintenance that was also easily handled and within the estimate amount. I was informed and updated with pictures and video of my car to help understand what was required. I highly recommend Das Mechanic, and will bring my cars here from now on. I have almost always driven German cars and it can be a challenge to find a shop that will work on them. I will happily continue to buy German cars knowing they are in good hands with Gabor. Thank you!

TL;DR: If you have a European vehicle in need of repairs and you value integrity as well as the cash in your wallet, seriously, stop looking - Das Mechanic run by Gabor and team is where you need to take your business. My 2012 Volkswagen GTI required critical repairs and I had taken it to 2 different well-known European car dealerships in the Madison area for diagnostics and estimates. The dealership starting with a big Z, gave me an estimate of $7300 minimum; another location told me to junk my vehicle and buy a new one from them. I know enough about my vehicle mechanically to know that I was getting fleeced and charged for services and parts that were not needed, so I went looking for a reputable, highly-rated, independent mechanic specializing in European cars. On my initial stop into Das Mechanic to talk with Gabor and to show him the estimate I had received from the big name dealership, he immediately knew with high confidence what the problem was with my vehicle just based on my description alone. Gabor took things a step further by popping my vehicle's hood right there and SHOWED to me and explained to me WHAT was going wrong and WHY. It was at this point that I knew I needed to get the fixes done here and I would NOT be bringing my vehicle back to the dealership to get hoodwinked. Throughout the repairs Gabor stayed in contact with me as needed through email and phone, even going so far as to send me several photos along the way that he took of my vehicle's engine to show me the extent of the build-up and damage done in certain areas. No stock photos or vague diagrams ripped from the internet - just straight and to the point with hands-on evidence. He also made recommendations along the way while giving me upfront and fair pricing so I knew just what I was getting myself into every step of the way. When all the repairs were completed including other components that needed to be replaced and the dealership had missed in their inspection, my bill to Das Mechanic was $2,613 - a FAR cry from the $7300 big-Z wanted to charge me. My vehicle is running fantastically now and Gabor himself called me afterward to check in with me and make sure everything was running as expected! As long as Das Mechanic is in business and I own a European vehicle, I will always be bringing it to Gabor and the team - hands down no questions asked. Thank you Gabor! You have restored my confidence that there still are mechanics that operate their business fairly, with integrity, with quality work, and are customer centric.

Gabor is a wonderful mechanic. His expertise and his humor has kept my husband's car alive for over 330,000 miles, Mine is only 100,000 miles old. He is honest, willing to investigate and learn about unique problems and willing to pull the plug when the car has gone too long (he just did that with my husband's and is consulting on the purchase of a different one). I appreciate having this resource.

I had a issue with my BMW where a cylinder in the engine was misfiring which had been an unknown cause until Gabor had looked into it. The issue had been with the car for a long time as he had concluded that it had been worked on before that the previous owner had never found the problem. He had gave me a very fair price on the cost as the dealership would have charged me triple! One of the best mechanics i've met.

It is enough to say that I completely trust Gabor to service and repair my daughter's BMW X3 while she is away at school in Madison. He is honest, communicates well, has fair prices, and does not recommend repairs that are unnecessary. The first time he serviced her car, he also took the time to show my daughter what the warning lights on her dash meant and how to check the oil. Thanks, Gabor!

Always a great experience taking my European cars to Das Mechanic. Excellent, timely work and service from Gabor and his staff every time for the 10+ years that I've been a customer. I don't take my vehicles anywhere else.

Gabor is very flexible. He'll give you his honest opinion with proactive suggestions, and his pricing is very fair. For a new clutch kit, flywheel, and crankshaft seal, he charged $2,500 versus $8K to $9K a local dealership would've charged.

Gabor was incredibly helpful with getting my valve cover gasket replaced. Went over the repairs with me and made sure everything was great! Very fast turn around. They definitely know their stuff here. 100% would recommend and will be returning.

I picked Das Mechanic for the high reviews although it was far from my house . And boy I’m so glad I did ! The owner Gabor is one of the most honest mechanics you will find in your life . He takes the time to explain what is good or wrong with your car . He even try to save you money ! I cannot say enough good things about this place !not a surprise he is the king of European car fixing , in his garage I saw BMW, Audi, VW , Volvo , Porsche etc . His employees are just like the owner polite , knowledgeable and professional. I strongly recommend this repair shop !

Best mechanic ever! You know you have a good mechanic when you ask for a bunch of expensive preventative work and they talk you out of what they could easily have just done and billed for. I've had friends use this business and came here on their glowing recommendations. He's honest and fair, explains things, knows his stuff, and treats you right! I have always done my own repairs because of others' experiences with bad/dishonest mechanics, and because it's a hobby of mine. But for the first time ever, I've been working way too much, lost my garage, and needed some work done, took my car to a <shudder> mechanic. He insisted on doing diagnostic work instead of just my requests, he gave me a MORE than fair estimate (which I have NEVER seen from any other mechanic), drove me home and picked me up when needed, did the work in a timely manner while communicating at every step, worked with me on part/brand preference, etc etc, and now I love my beautiful car more than ever! Thank you so much Gabor! You and your team ROCK!

Gabor was a great guy to work with. He keeps you informed on everything that is going on. Sends pictures of work and also the failed parts and helps explain everything that’s going on and why. Very good mechanic. Very good guy. My car was in the shop a little longer but he gave me a 500 discount to help with that. Nothing you can do with the parts on hold but he still helped me out wen it wasn’t even his fault. Very respectful and I’ll be going back for my oil changes and other work as well. Would recommend to anyone that has a German car.

We are from out of town and needed repairs. The people here are great to work with! I can’t thank them enough for taking such good care of us.

The Google reviews on Das Mechanic, Gabor, and his work, made me very comfortable looking to him for service on my new (new to me at least) BMW. I'm in the service industry, so relationships matter to me. To me there is comfort in knowing that the guy you hand your keys to is the guy who is going to work on your vehicle, and the guy who is going to hand you your keys back. Taking care of your vehicle is important to Gabor, because taking care of YOUR vehicle is HIS business. Couldn't have been happier with the service my vehicle received and the insight into my vehicle I received. Highly recommended.

Gabor and his team are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I took my recently acquired '97 Boxster to Das Mechanic and he was honest and fair with all of my inquiries. He also spent time with me going over my car, including options of what may need to be replaced soon. He was not pushy or trying to upsell me in anyway. Gabor's shop is clean and his team professional. He's gained a lifetime customer in me and I strongly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest and respectful European automotive mechanic.

Bought a used Mini Cooper this Spring and somehow found these guys. Glad I did! 2 gentlemen owner/mechanics, no frills, clean, quiet, well equipped shop. Very pro, thorough work on your euro ride. They are my go-to shop for my "Little Minion"!

I had my BMW X5 brought to them; they fixed it for way less than the dealer price and the work was excellent. My good friend had a older Mercedes that had a lot of problems. They warned us what it would cost to fix it and that it may need a new engine after all of the cost that was quite a bit. Low and behold; the car did need an engine after all the work. Yet they didn't charge us for all of the work and when I tried to give something they wouldn't take it. It's hard to find good reasonably priced mechanics that are passionate about the work and the people. I highly recommended Das Mechanic if you drive European cars; especially BMW or Audi!!! 5 Star Plus!!!

I took my BMW E90 in a few months ago for the front differential. Their service is outstanding and much more affordable than the dealership. I took it in again this past week, and their customer service continues to amaze me. I will continue taking my BMW here and I recommend this shop to anyone looking.
