This is by far the best place to get your German car worked on in NM. Best prices in town by far and the quality and turn around time are great. Sam is one of the nicest guys I know. I will never go to anyone else with my BMW or Audi. Highly recommended.

Sam is one of the most experienced BMW technicians in Albuquerque. I took my 2013 128i to Sam and he was able to call my car warranty company and had my car fixed the same day. He dealt with the warranty company on his own I didnt have to do a thing. Sams prices are most reasonable and his expertise is priceless. Highly recommend!

I took my BMW to Sam on a recommendation from a family member. Needless to say, the recommendation was a great one! Sam took great care of not only my car but was very professional and friendly throughout the entire process. I needed a brake fluid service and Sam had it completed in under an hour. All this for a fraction of the price of what Sandia BMW offers. I will definitely be returning for any other repairs and maintenance I will be needing in the future. Highly recommended if you own a German vehicle!

Sam is the best in Albuquerque in foreign auto repair. Sams expertise is matched by his direct communication and fair prices. Dont be tempted by the dealer service department. On the day I picked up my car there was a long time German Precision customer with over 300,000 miles on her X5 - another of Sams loyal customers.

There are several good choices here in ABQ to get your German vehicle in top shape, however; Sam is not only a straight shooter, he also prices his repairs quite fairly. Highly recommend!

German precision is the best shop in town hands down! I went to the dealership where they wanted to charge me an exuberant price! I will now only take my Volkswagen to german precision. You have a life long customer Sam!! thank you again for the quick turn around and the professionalism!

I have taken my 20-year-old car to this shop on more than one occasion and every time I walk out very happy. The service is excellent - Sam is very honest and friendly. Hes not hard on the eyes either! Overall very good experience!

Sam is very thorough and services 4 of our BMWs. We have always had a good experience with him and he is more reasonable then the dealer.

It is time to give a shoutout to a local business that went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. I had initially taken my german vehicle to Hans Wittler for a basic oil change and overall checkup. Long story short, it went in without an oil leak but left with an oil leak. After calling Hans Wittler to get my car in they said they are booked for weeks and I can drop it off but they dont know when they will get to it. They didnt care to help at all..... I called Sam at German Precision and even though he said he was also booked for weeks he told me he can look at it in between jobs that SAME DAY! He took care of my vehicle within 2 hours of dropping it off. Luckily it was something minor but this shows the love and respect for his business and his customer service. To top it off he didnt want to charge me since it was something minor (obviously I took care of him). Sam has earned my business and as long as I have a German vehicle I will take it to Sam at German Precision, I would recommend you to do the same!

Was referred to German Precision by local mechanic for work on a rear main seal on my 11’ B8 A4. I was very happy with timely work and quality outcome. I’m a hard judge when it comes to commitment and outcomes. He was a man of his word and even showed the failure of the seal. Highly recommended!!!

Sam, the owner and operator, is the best mechanic I have ever dealt with in my entire life! His prices are the best! If you own a German car, you’d be a fool to take your car anywhere else for service/repair! Especially the dealership!

I had an excellent experience at German Precision. Im new to BMWs, I called Sam with a tpms question. He asked me to bring the car by and proceeded to fix the problem (receiver wiring issue) while I waited for pennies on the dollar compared to what the BMW dealer would have charged me. I couldnt be more impressed. Thanks again Sam!

This is by far the best German mechanic in Albuquerque. Absolutely knows his way around German vehicles and all their quirks. Sam is extremely friendly, honest, and does the best work for an extremely fair price. He cares about your car as if it were his own and takes the time to explain everything to you.If you own a German car youd be doing yourself a disservice going to any other mechanic. I cant reccomend this place enough.

Review №24

My recent repairs at German Precision may honestly have been the most pleasant experience with an automotive service provider that Ive ever had. Sam does fantastic work at a fair price, doesnt try to sell you on any repairs more than necessary, and seems genuinely passionate about explaining whats going on with your vehicle mechanically for those who are interested. All told, he got me back on the road for less than half of what was originally quoted by the dealership. I would be more than happy to bring my vehicle down from Santa Fe for any future service needs!

Sam is the best mechanic I have ever met.Not only is he, dare I say a genius, but a down to earth guy who will share as much information with you as youd like. Mechanics like this arent often found so we must do everything to support him and his business.If you have a German car, Sam is your man.

Review №29

Sam is the best mechanic I have ever met. His depth of knowledge is readily apparent. I love my car very much, and Sam put the same care into my vehicle as if it were his own. I came in for an oil change and he recommended some other maintenance as well- things that 3 other shops had missed. I feel so grateful that this was the shop I picked out of all the German mechanics in town after moving back to Abq. And hes so nice and friendly to boot! Being female sometimes mechanics treat me like I dont understand my vehicle- but not Sam! He took the time to talk to me about my car, and even just chat about cars in general, which I loved since Im a bit of a German car nerd. Please go here, you will not be disappointed!

This is truly a 5 star shop! I cant thank Sam enough for fixing my car so quickly with his busy schedules. And the price was way lower than I expected. I was expecting to spend about 1k on the repair like other places were giving me, and here it came out $220, and he got the job done in one day. Just Wow!

I bought a part for my car and ask them a quote for just labor. They refuse to installed because the part was not charged by them. The other places that I called said that they will install the part, just they can not give warranty of the part. And still not receiving any quote.

They say you need to know 3 people in life. A good lawyer, a good plumber, and a good mechanic... Sam is that Mechanic. He does great work, hes very personable and friendly, has great pricing, and knows his stuff. I can say with confidence, go to Sam. Youll be glad you did.

Review №36

Ive had my M3 worked on at different locations in ABQ and wanted a change mainly for just a lack of good customer care. I contacted Sam and just through conversation and his knowledge of BMWs, I felt like it would be worth my while to bring my car to him for an oil change and to check the wheel rub I was hearing. He called me within an hour or so with the diagnosis on the wheel rub (a broken plastic panel dropped down and was contacting the tire when the wheel was turned fully to the left), but he also discovered badly worn top shock mounts that I had no idea were damaged and producing a noise to which Id become accustomed. The cost for all the repairs and oil change were very reasonable and when I had to bring it back to him the next day for a bad relay to the headlights, he found a used part and charged me nothing. He also had the time to oil the door handles and fix the front spoiler trim which was slightly out of alignment. Overall satisfaction is very high, and I will be bringing my car to Sam of German Precision auto repair in the future.

Drove into Albuquerque with my check engine light on (Mercedes diesel) right before a holiday weekend. Sam saw my car immediately, & diagnosed the problem before I had finished lunch next door. He fixed it the next morning, and even picked me up at my rental! Fantastic experience. And reasonably priced. If he wasnt 1700 miles from home, Sam would be my regular mechanic.

Review №38

Fantastic experience! Had a unique problem on a (new to me) vehicle that left me on the side of the road, Im new to the city so after a quick online search decided to have the tow take my car to Sam at Precision German and I could not be more satisfied, he was able to work me in and ran a full check of the vehicle to determine the problem and fix it. Best part was that he keeps you updated and talks you through it all. I was shocked after all that was done how fair the service bill was. Sam is an honest mechanic that will always have my business. Thank you sir!

German Precision is my go-to place whenever I need to have something checked. The owner, Sam, has checked my 05 Hyundai Sonata more than once and every time I have drove away highly satisfied. Sam is smart, professional, and honest, which seperates him from other mechanics. He runs a very personable business and has a way of explaining details that make sense even if you know absolutely nothing about cars (like me). I recommend anyone with vehicle trouble to call or stop by German Precision as it will save you money and give you an overall fantastic experience. Thank you Sam

Our window regulator decided to go out at 5:45pm Friday afternoon, leaving our window stuck rolled down with a thundershower rolling in. We called Sam- he immediately took it in, got the window rolled up and ordered the new part. We’re going to have it replaced on Tuesday.

These guys ROCK! They are knowledgeable, upfront and fair. My daughter is on a roadtrip across the country in her Audi and had a suspension problem. These guys explained the problem, showed it to her and gave her a fair price. AWESOME! I have been in the auto industry for years and so appreciate customer service like this!

If you have a German vehicle, you would be a fool to go anywhere else. Sam is a good guy, prices are more than fair, and he genuinely cares. Went to another place for an alignment and they said my transmission fluid was low when doing an all point inspection (no dipstick on a VW, btw). Went to Sam on a referral from a co-worker for an expert opinion on German cars, and he said that he couldn’t feel or see anything wrong with it. Put my mind at ease and saved me who knows how much money. He has my business from here on out.

The best German shop in town hands down. Sandia BMW quoted $1500 for a Fuel pump change on my 335i with an aftermarket pump. Sam changed mine out with a brand new OEM pump for 60% off of that price. Finished it within one day. Sam knows his BMWs. no other shop can beat German Precision in Albuquerque.

Full disclaimer: Before going here, I had never met the owner. Im not family or an old friend. This is a 100% unbiased review.I just cant say enough positive things about my experience at German Precision. My BMW 525i had some serious timing issues and I took it to another shop that quoted me $2500 to replace a ton of parts, some of which were fairly new. I simply wasnt about to be suckered into paying for service I didnt need. I decided to go elsewhere and by chance found German Precision down in the search results. I decided to give them a call and it was by far the best thing I could have done.Sam, the owner/mechanic was incredibly knowledgeable. He listened and offered advice. I seriously felt he was an old-time friend. He explained everything he wanted to do and why. I felt completely at ease with him working on my car. Frankly, for the service I received, I was blown away when I got the bill. Super reasonable. In fact, I almost felt like he should have charged more for some of the services he performed because I know he did more than what he actually charged for.Bottom line, Sam knows how to service a BMW and I would whole-heartedly recommend him to anyone (and I will). For anyone with a German car, you know how hard it is to find an honest and fair mechanic. Almost non-existent! Thanks Sam for taking the headache out of getting my car serviced.

We have a Mini Cooper that needed a fair bit of work done. The shop we normally take our car to estimated a ridiculous price for the parts and labor, so I began calling around.We have since been to Sam 3 separate times and could not be more pleased with the service. We now use Sam as our regular mechanic for the vehicle.
