Import AutoWerks is honest, reliable, and professional. They fixed my BMW 550xi.I had to have my drivers side axle replaced. Alvin explained everything in great detail and was very fair with the labor and parts cost. I would highly recommend them If you have a BMW, and want quality care without the outrageous prices the dealerships charge..I will definitely be a return customer. Great Customer service as well..
I brought in my 2004 330ci after being referred by my regular BMW mechanic for a stubborn check engine light. The guys at Import AutoWerks not only found the cause and corrected the issue, but they also gave my convertible a thorough going-over that uncovered some under-carriage problems that had escaped my attention. I was given the complete prioritized list of repairs with their costs so I could make informed decisions going forward. Although Im unhappy about having to shell out more money - not that its IAWs fault - at least I now know whats involved.
These guys are awesome ! They saved me a ton of money over the local BMW dealership and are very honest and upfront. They know these cars inside and out. Dont waste your time and money at the dealership because they are ripping you off. Come here and you will never go anywhere else for your BMW repairs ! I also felt very welcomed here and chatted up a storm with Russ. Just down to earth people !
Been taking mine and my family’s European cars to Import Autowerks for years. Always great service, communication, top quality work and great prices.Skip the overpriced / overselling dealership service centers!
Outstanding service and customer relations.Work was done in a timely manner and vehicle returned in spotless condition. Alvin is a true gentleman and the price was extremely fair.I will highly recommend Auto Werks in the future.
These guys are who you’re looking for.I had a quote from the dealer to repair my Turbo for $7000…I was skepticalI came here to Import Autowerks and was very pleased that they could do it for MUCH LESS.Actually, they only repaired the necessary part of the turbo…didn’t blindly replace everything.In additionI had a break job, two new tires, gasket for oil system, flushed my coolant system and more.Grand Total $3200I realize that I was fortunate that it worked out like this, and it could have been a bigger problem and cost more. But the fact that they truly consider what actually needs to be done and work to keep costs to their minimum is so refreshing.Thank You Alvin and everyone at Import Autowerks
Great team. Excellent communication and turn around time. Explained all options and possible outcomes. Delivered exception service!
Alvin, Russ, & team are some of the most honest and reliable guys you could possibly come across in this business. Work is always done as quickly as possible and no service is ever preformed without the customer’s approval first. They are thoughtful & transparent in pricing. I’m happy to make a bit of a hike to get to their shop because I know whatever needs to be done will be done correctly and with care. It’s rare to leave an auto repair shop with a smile on your face. When we came across an unforeseen issue during a routine service, Alvin & Russ took the time to research and educate me on what was going on and there actually happened to be a class action lawsuit that I wouldn’t have known about if it hadn’t been for their genuine care, dedication, & tenacity. They still continue to follow up on the progress of the lawsuit.Thank you for running an exemplary business - these reviews clearly speak for themselves !!
I have been bringing my car to Alvin and Russ for several years and trust them implicitly. Extremely professional as well as personable, they have always kept my best interest in mind, guiding and educating me on each problem so I am able to make an informed decision. I recently had an electrical issue. They could have done the work and charged me $700. Instead they let me know that the part was covered under an extended warranty. They could have easily taken my money but they looked out for me. Who does that? They’re simply great people!!
Great german import mechanic. I have them service my 2013 audi Q5. Only gripe is that they have too many customers and scheduling can be difficult with less than a two week lead time.
I found Import AutoWerks on a BMW forum and was not disappointed. They provide professional service at a fair price. They did work for me, including an oil change and seal replacement on the rear diff. I will continue to use Import AutoWerks to service my E46 M3.
These guys are awesome ! They saved me a ton of money over the local BMW dealership and are very honest and upfront. They know these cars inside and out. Dont waste your time and money at the dealership because they are ripping you off. Come here and you will never go anywhere else for your BMW repairs ! I also felt very welcomed here and chatted up a storm with Russ. Just down to earth people !
Very reliable and professional. They are BMW experts. Russ explained what was needed and why it was needed.Warranty on parts and labor on my particular service is a Plus.
Russ, Alvin and the team are great and make you feel at ease in the process from start to finish. All the mechanics looks the they enjoy being there, not to mention they work on BMWs all day so if you have one they will likely know what is going on with your car that the shop down the street may not know. Also for the sake of your pockets they will put you on a plan of how to prioritize different fixes to your vehicle over the next 6 months while being proactive so that further issues dont occur if you delay a fix. This is my first car in life and we all know German vehicles could be a pain if you dont have reliable mechanics. These guy take pride in there work and customer service would highly recommend.
Excellent company. Trustworthy and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Alvin and his crew are excellent at their trade. Ive brought a series of four E39s (one 540 and three M5s) to Import AutoWerks over a period of close to 20 years and been more than satisfied with their work. There is nothing Alvin cannot do and he does everything with total professionalism. I recommend Import AutoWerks without hesitation.
Professional, courteous service. Always know my vehicle is in good hands.
Great work done by the team to swap out grille inserts on my Jeep. Would definitely recommend, and will return for any more work.
I worked with Russ who was genuinely attentive and clear with what needed fixing and why. Couldn’t have been happier. I highly recommend and will be utilizing them from now on.
Always honest, always great quality. These guys are the reason I am not scared to own a BMW.
Alvin has been the go to guy for my entire family for as long as I can remember. The fact that the shop is always busy filled, with cars needing services done speaks volumes about the quality. Honest mechanic and extremely fair in pricing. Why bother going to a dealership for subpar services. Not only that, you’ll burn a hole in your savings for the same service done.
Great service from the Import Autowerks team. They serviced the DCT and differential on my F10 M5. The work was done on time and the car is shifting smoother. Thanks Alvin for running a great shop.
Alvin and his team are top notch BMW experts. If you have a BMW you should be bringing it to Import AutoWerks. I highly recommend these guys.
Russ and Alvin are two of the nicest guys you could ask for when working with an independent shop. They are the go-to shop for my import because of their friendliness, knowledge, and professional standards. I first worked with them through another company and always said Id be back if I had the right car to bring to them. Similar to the work experience I had with them...they treat their customers right. Thanks, guys!
Had an engine valve seal replacement on my 550i which is as an invasive procedure as you can get for an engine repair. The outcome was flawless. I’m driving a new car with the pep is had in its youth. High five to the repair team at Import Autowerks.
Every time I’m amazed and completely satisfied.. the guys are very detailed oriented, knowledgeable and haven’t misdiagnosed my 03 325i since the start of 2019 to date.. I 100% trust import auto werks and would recommend any one seeking great quality mechanics.. they’ve grown to know my personality when providing feed back and suggestions and also provide options that work for my budget. They’re the absolute best!
Import Autowerks always treat the customers with respect. I have been coming to this shop for many years and their truthfulness and quality of work keeps me coming back.
I went in for the repair of my daytime running light. Something that if I’d Googled or just opened my hood I could have done myself, but I’m so comfortable with these guys as soon as something goes wrong I call them. I don’t even check it out myself. If you’re a BMW owner and you’re looking for a repair shop, look no more. I live in Brockton and there are local shops, but I don’t feel the same positive energy whenever I’ve entered the room, so I travel to Braintree. If they need to keep my car I Uber home. It’s just that simple. There is nothing like spending your money with people who respect you, that are professional and honest. But the real upside to the whole experience is that if you have to stick around, they’re great conversationalist.
I have brought my BMW 650 to Import Autowerks 3 or 4 times now. Each time they have taken care of my car like it was their own. High quality service, transparency, and clear communication. They have my trust and I will always bring my BMW here.
I’ve been coming here for years. I love that everything is explained to me and that I understand where my money is going. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!...
Alvin and his team were super helpful and professional in taking care of my car. Service was quick, fairly priced and well explained. Highly recommended and very happy with my experience at Import Auto Werks!
Excellent communication and pricing. Definitely would recommend.
IAW has serviced my e46 for over 13 years and I couldn’t be happier with the the quality of service / value that IAW provides.
Great as always. Alvin and team are the best in the business.
These guys are simply the best BMW Mercedes highly recommended to anyone!!!
They do a great job at a great price
Alvin and his team were exceptional, communicative, and enjoyed talking about cars. I wouldn’t go anywhere else
Absolutely the best mechanics I have ever worked with. I have been bringing my cars to them for over 10 years. Now my mom, brother, kids and friends all use them. They are friendly, knowledgeable, reasonable and always so accommodating. 5 star service.
The most honorable and skilled BMW repair shop I have ever experienced. I recommend Alvin and his team to anyone I meet who has a BMW. The best.
I brought my 2008 BMW to Import Auto Werks, which was recommended by a good friend who has been going there for years. I was extremely satisfied with their customer service and workmanship. They did a better job for less money than I had experienced with other dealerships. Their service was above and beyond the normal. For example, their manager, Alvin, arranged the car rental for my loaner car, but the rental service didn’t deliver. Alvin made alternate arrangements for Uber to transport me to the car rental company. I felt they took very good care of me.
Did a very professional job of diagnosing my cars problem and then fixing it.
This place is undisputed #1 car repair shop in the region, period!People there are super knowledge and best at what they do.
Alvin and the guys are the only place I bring my BMW to hands down one of the best repair shops in the area!!
Love the Autowerks team, Alvin and Russ always take care of my car and do it at fair rates.
Very thorough and efficient.
Ive been going to Alvin for nearly 20 years and hes serviced 6 different cars for me. He and Russ and the entire staff there are great!Jon Shaw
I always have a great experience when I have my car serviced with the Import AutoWerks. Great team and very professional! Highly recommended!
Great people and service. Takes the time to explain what should be done and why it needs to be done.
Alvin got me in the next day after making the appt for an oil change for my BMW the night before.
Failed annual state inspection in June, 2021 due to front suspension issues (ball joints). Made appointment with IAW, took it in and drove it out back to inspection station to get renewed sticker. IAW repair was great and I get to continue to enjoy my 2000 e39 with 342k miles.In April, 2021 my 2000 528i e39 developed a terrible squealing noise. Rotational in nature and seemingly coming from left front wheel base. Brakes, bearing, what could it be? IAW to the rescue once again - removal of a hidden rock lodged between the backing plate and the rotor - and I’m back on the road. All for a reasonable price. Wonderful people, excellent knowledge, care and attention. At 341k miles, IAW is what keeps my 21 year old still going.This is an update to the below (Dec 2020): Most recent experience was the replacement of the cooling system thermostat. I had noticed that the temperature gauge was slowly failing to reach “dead” center vertical and, once again, Alvin and Russ and their team to the rescue. A correct diagnosis, professional repair and for a fair price. I continue to trust my 20.5 year old (since new), 340k e39 to them.This an update to the below (Oct 2020): Most recent experience was the replacement of a rotting out part of the fuel line. I trust IAW to find these issues on my 20 year old 340k e39 and make the repair correctly the first time for a fair price. Would not think of going anywhere else. 5+ stars.I own a 2000 BMW 528i (e39) since new. Now have 338k miles on it. Since moving to Boston 7 years ago, I have Import Auto Werks and Alvin and Russ to thank for being able to keep this wonderful car for so long. It’s great engine and manual transmission are the heart and soul of the vehicle. Never-the-less, the years and miles take their toll. Electronic module work, brake lines, torn off idler pulley to springs and struts and tires and brakes. Nothing is easy working on a 15 to 20 year old car. Alvin and Russ and their mechanics are great - professional, talented, honest, fair, etc. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thanks, IAW.
Id recommend import auotwerks to anyone with any car repairs/maintenence even tho they specialize in bmws as you get to know alvin hell take care of your other automotive needs
I was referred to Import AutoWerks by a friend after Mercedes in Westwood lost my trust. I am grateful for Import AutoWerk. Alvin & Russell are honest, professional and really nice people. They answer all my questions and address my concerns. I would hang up, realized that I had other question, call back, and they answered my questions with no hesitation. What I like most is that if they do not know the answer, their response were, let me look into it. Alvin or Russell would call be back with an answer. To me that represents professionalism and respect. Most recently, I repaired a crack spring and tension belt. I received an email with the cost and a mini video that explains the purpose of my crack springs. I was impressed! They work with enterprise to help with getting a rental. After, the repairs my car felt amazing to drive. I couldnt believe it. Lastly, during these crazy times of COVID-19 they took the extra step to clean my car before I picked it up. Very thoughtful. My sister will be coming in soon to replace her brakes on her Mercedes. I will continue to be a faithful customer and refer to has many people possible. Trust me you will be please with their work and professionalism. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Review from Bob Wareham: They replaced temperature control module. As always, the service was excellent.
Once again Alvin steps up to save the day with my sons beloved BMW!
Alvin & russ, Dave and the rest of the team are gr8 to deal; my 2nd bmw with them & no problems. They are all highly professional & accommodating & would highly recommend as opposed to local bmw dealerships.Alvin will treat you with respect & look out for your vehicles future needs & options, i could not b happier.
Excellent! Prompt and courteous service from all staff members. I had the clutch changed on my 04 325xi and some important fluids flushed/refilled (brake/clutch/engine/differential/transmission). The engine on my e46 is now at 107,000 miles and recently, I changed my own spark plugs. Now the engine response is revamped and the car has been revitalized! She drives almost brand new. I am extremely satisfied! I am thankful to know and conduct business with Alvin and the rest of the Crew at Import Auto Werks! Thank you!
Best Machanics Ever. Very affordable.
I was looking for a place to bring my E90 and Im glad I came across Import AutoWerks. I went there for the first time yesterday and I will definitely be back. Russ was very pleasant to talk to and he saved me money which Im very thankful for. 5 stars!
Alvin and Russ are the best!!
Amazing service and team best in the area by miles
Alvin is an experienced and knowledgeable mechanic. Over the past few years, hes been very helpful in keeping my 5 series running in tip-top shape. He also is very keen to inform me of potential upcoming repair issues. I will continue to trust his judgment for as long as I own my 5 series.
Easy scheduling. common sense solutions. accurate estimation. fair prices. theyll even help get back and forth on the T. i have an e46 m3 which isnt the most basic vehicle - they know their stuff.
I have an E36 98 convertible and Alvin and Russ have far exceeded the dealerships in working on it. I would highly recommend BMW owners to use them for service. They explain everything to you and will save you $$$
If you have a BMW, and you dont want to over-pay for BMW parts and service, you should be working with Import AutoWerks. Period. When I was thinking about buying a used 328xi, all my Beemer friends said that I should go there. And I am 100% happy. Russ was on the phone when my car broke down (yes... I ran out of gas...). Russ has correctly (effortlessly) diagnosed my 328xi over the phone. He is understanding that I am on a budget. He is flexible. He is even CHEERFUL. (Of course I would be cheerful too if every intelligent BMW owner trusted exclusively in me...) Never going back to a dealer again.
Excellent great guys ....
Best auto repair shop I have ever been to, by far. Reasonable prices, excellent service, but above all, pure honesty. Alvin and his team will tell you what your car needs and also what is urgent and what can wait, they treat you like family and allow you to focus on the most important items that need care, so your car is always running great without breaking the piggy bank.
I brought my BMW to Russ and Alvin for years... now onto the Audi! I trust them completely... and every BMW driver I know also goes to them. They are the best in the area, with significantly better prices than a dealer. Anyone who does not go there is throwing away cash. Period.
Leave the local BMW dealership and dont look back. This IS the place to have your BMW serviced. I have been several times and only come home happy with the work and the bill. This is my first BMW and now that I have a great garage I will be buying another certified per-owned car and after my warranty runs out I will only have them service the car.
Alvin is the most genuine and honest mechanic I know, which is why I go to him. I was driving my car one day and it began to sporadically stall. I had it towed out to Alvin, and it was diagnosed as a water damaged ECU. He replaced it, and the car ran great. Fast forward two weeks, the same issue began happening again. I called up Alvin and he had the car towed back out to his shop. He covered the tow cost as well as the new ECU and fixed the oversight from the first repair.I know that this is what you should expect given the situation, but I feel that most mechanics would find some way to charge me for something the second time around. This isnt the case with Alvin, hes a honest guy and truly cares about his customers. Highly recommended.
The only place I would take my cars I’ve known these guys for over 10 years and there is no better trusted owner and techs then them in New England area
Alvin and his team have kept me and my wife very pleased with their service and has been reasonable priced during the many service events weve had them perform. Alvin doesnt just throw parts at a car, he fixes them, correctly.
Alvin is second to none. He found the tires that werent available anyone else. Additionally he adjusted the price so that it would be around his original estimate. And on top of that, he had two guys change the tires so i could get out quicker. Multiple trips and I will continue to go back. Thank you Alvin.
Ive brought my BMWs to Alvin for several years and wont take my cars anywhere else. Alvin and his team are wonderful to work with and, most importantly, HONEST! Theyll do whatever they can to accommodate my schedule and they provide up front explanations of work needed, when it should be done, and estimated cost. Ive NEVER been surprised when the bill comes and the cost is far more reasonable than quotes Ive received from the dealerships. Im moving to Lexington this month and will still drive to Braintree for Alvin. He is THAT good!
Stopped in to have TPMS issue resolved They found a bad sensor and replaced all four sensors with sensors that I had previously purchased..Also had them install the active Autowerks tune on my BMW 328I everything they told me about it was 100% true the tune worked perfect no more Throttle lag the shop is great.Alvin does excellent work
You know when you stumble across a place that is a gem, whether it be a restaurant off the beaten path with amazing food and service, or a website that offers incredible deals and you want to spread the word? AutoWerks is the best keep secret. I overheard a conversation while dining in a restaurant and a customer was bragging about AutoWerks, telling his friend that he would never take his BMW anywhere else for repair. I also have a BMW and given that I am fairly new to the area, I decided to (for the first time), break away from taking my car to the dealership for repair and give AutoWerks a try. Seriously, it was the best decision I have made. AutoWerks offers their customers very honest communication and reasonable cost for repairs. There is no doubt in my mind, these guys are not just in it for the money, they genuinely want to help people and build a trustworthy rapport with their clientele, which they have succeeded with me. Thank you AutoWerks!
The place is a great ! the individuals know their stuff.
Brought my car for repair all staff I interacted with were extremely friendly, personable and trustworthy. Their prices are very affordable!
Grade (A) establishment if you need your car fixed by professional this is where to go
Most auto shops do work that somehow has you end up back at their shop shortly afterwards. This auto shop does quality work, competitive pricing, but solid work. For work you cant do on your own..let these folks handle it.
Outstanding service again... Import AutoWerks is the best auto shop I have ever been to. I would not hesitate to recommenced them. Fair prices, expert mechanics and staff, and wonderful customer service every time.
Ive owned a BMW since 1990, Ive had all kinds of service experiences over the last 26 years. AutoWerks is as technically competent as any dealer Ive used, with a value proposition lots more favorable. Im very pleased that I have AutoWerks as an option. I now have been using Autowerks for over six years, they deserve a five star rating.My wife has just purchased a 5 series, Im grateful that I have Autowerks as an option, otherwise owning two BMWs would not have made economic sense.. (updated 12/15/2017)
Alvin and team are the best! Always fair, work hard to get me in during an emergency, and do great work on my 2007 X5 which is recently off warranty. My first choice for quality care of my BMW!
Great staff. Alvin and Russ are great to work with.
Honest, patient with explaining details, knows BMWs inside-out and sideways. If you own a BMW, Alvin and team are your best option. By FAR!
There is no reason to even think about going somewhere else. Professional and courteous and reasonably priced.
I stopped going to these guys about over a year now because of the distance I had to travel to go to them. The reason I decided to go see them was because they specialized in BMW and they had good reviews on yelp. I had a few things done from them like oil change, spark plugs, oil leaks etc. I’m disappointed to say that a few days ago my check engine light came on and my car starting making this whistling sound, that was coming from the engine. After doin my research and taking my car to Herb Chamber of BMW and other mechanics that specialized in German vehicles I was told I needed a new “valve cover gasket” which I had already replaced with Import AutoWerks back in August of 2016. Luckily I still had the receipt for the work they SAID they did that date. I called and spoke to RUSS whose the secretary there and was told that my warranty of a year had expired and they couldn’t do anything to help me after spending $563 on a NEW “valve cover gasket” Russ told me they buy their parts directly from BMW so it makes no sense to me how a part that’s made for your vehicle couldn’t last more than a year and a half especially that I only put 15k miles on it since they last replaced it. Russ gave me the run around and told me that there’s a cheat they can do but wouldn’t guaranteed that it will resolve my problem. I told him why do I have to pay twice and do a “cheat” to fix the very same problem I paid them to do less than two years ago. He said “there’s nothing I can do for you buddy, hahaha sorry” In a very sarcastic way. He said to fix the problem I needed to pay them another $563. He knows the job they did was not done correctly. At this point I don’t know if they even replaced the part. You’ve been warned! Don’t let the good reviews fool you.
Best place to fix your BMW
All i drive is BMWs, & i wouldnt take my cars anywhere else period....Best in Boston 100%. Shout out to Alvin & Russ.... from Ray black BMW 550i sport...
Import auto werks is the best shop by far. I been dealing with Alvin for about a decade with multiple cars they are number ☝🏽
I found this place thru Bimmer Forums and have made it my go to shop for my BMW. I use to go to the dealer for repairs but their labor hours are too much and I feel like a second-class citizen at the dealer. Alvin and Russel are friendly and honest businessmen. They let you know what the problem is and how much, no gimmicks. They take their time to explain what is wrong, how they are going to fix it, how long it will take and how much. I trust what they say and they really know their stuff. If you want your car serviced for lower hourly rate and better quality workmanship than dealership..bring your car here.
Import Autowerks is the best place to have your car serviced. The people are so knowledgeable and the most important thing to me is that I trust them completely. I highly recommend Import Autowerks.
After waiting for response about car. 2 hours after opening for business, called and said he could get the hood open and in order to do so.....500.00!???? I declined. However, a spray of wd40 on latch....and its open. However, the fact that he told me to get my car out of here. Rather than explaning why I need to pay 500.00. I all got was mumble mumble all parts need to be replaced. I guess life is good when you can tell someone to pay and not a exact reason to why.....Im shocked that this place has 5 star rating. Went up the street to the dealership on route 3, no 1 week wait. 2 hours later my car is in shop and expected to be picked up tomorrow. Call them now, Id bet they tell you 1 week. I cant believe I considered them. Egg on my face
Best service on any vehicle, done right the first time!2020 was difficult financially, but this company always tries to extend repair options to help our wallet.
Have been having Import Autowerks service my BMWs for many years. I have always received excellent advice and prompt and outstanding service from them.
This is great place to fix your euro cars BMW and Mercedes . they have good customer service, and have reasonable price and time consuming. Alvin and Russell and their crews are knowledgeable technicians.
These guys know BMWs!...The quality of service and communication is top notch, and their prices are very reasonable. I can always depend on Alvin, Russ and the guys to service my E46.
Ive been going to Import Auto Werks for years, they do a fantastic job and are really passionate about BMWs. They dont recommend work that is not completely necessary and can be creative with solutions when you need them to be.I wouldnt take my BMW anywhere else.
Best bmw shop around ! trust worthy and always there to help!!!
