This was my second visit to Metric Autosport. I had a rear sway bar installed on my GTI before. My dealer told me I needed front brake pads and rotors. I was dissatisfied with the dealer's response to my questions. Both Michael and Brian at Metric patiently answered my questions and ended up doing the repair with stock parts at a substantial savings to me compared to VW. Terrific.

I was dreading the day when my trusty independent VW mechanic (Brandon) over at SMS European would no longer be able to take care of my beloved VW - but knew that day was coming as he started servicing everything but VWs. I mean I get it, servicing a VW isn't going to be nearly as profitable as a higher end car. Thus, it was time to find a new trusty VW mechanic (and dealerships don't count). Between Reddit, Yelp, and Google, I stumbled upon a short list of recommendations - Metric was one of them. I called everyone on the list for a quick oil change - and Michael @ Metric was the only one that was able to take me same day. This is a smaller shop - sandwiched between a bunch of other auto shops, super tight parking - just make sure you turn down the driveway off Metzler Lane with the Liqui-Moly banner. I was greeted right away by Brian - and he was able to work on Tiggy pretty quickly. I think between time-in and time-out, the oil change took about 30 minutes. I took the time to ask him about the other services my Tiggy would need, and not once did he try to upsell or offer me anything I didn't need. I've been to sketchy places where the tech tries to sell me a bunch of other things - but not here. Was very satisfied with the service - the oil change was a little over $90 - an amazing value that's competitive to other independent VW shops in the area. I always feel more comfortable taking my car to a shop where other same brand cars are being serviced, as it's more likely their techs are familiar with the ins and outs of the car. Metric has a comfortable waiting area - a bit bigger than my photo below - I had to crop the left side cuz there was another customer in there napping. Brian even pulled Tiggy around so I wouldn't have to back out of the tight spot - super considerate. VWs are awesome cars - you just have to remember to be on top of their maintenance to keep them happy cars. Happy to say that Brian and Michael @ Metric seem to be my new trusty VW shop - I'll most likely get Tiggy's 50K service done here in a few months.

Excellent shop for my Audi S3. I had a carbon cleaning, which turned out fantastic. I will definitely return for any of my Audi maintenance.

I found Metric from their blog during a Google search. I had a question about a WAVETRAC LSD for a GTi and they were very responsive and helpful. I appreciate their time to help answer the question!

Brian and his team are literally wizards at their craft!!! Had to tow my car to their shop for an engine problem. They diagnosed the issue and discovered the electrode from a spark plug broke off and fell into the cylinder which caused the rough clunking noise. (Heart stopped for a couple seconds there.) Long story short, Brian quickly informed me they were able to remove the broken piece out of the cylinder and that it has caused minimal damage to the cylinder and piston so I won't have to replace everything. (Hooray!) Brian and his team were very informative along the process and professional above all else. They provided a CLEAR breakdown of the work and parts used. Allowing someone who is clueless about cars to still understand what was done. Hands down the best auto shop I've been to in all my driving years. Totally recommend these guys to anyone looking for simple oil changes to major car work. (Found my forever auto shop now. )

These guys are legit. I’ve been coming here for years and they always give food advice, finish the job on time, straightforward pricing, and are easy to work with. I drive 30+ minutes each way because they’re the best.

I have been taking my vehicle to Mike & Brian for many years and one thing that I cannot praise them enough for is their sincere honesty & attentiveness about what's going on with my vehicle. Their experience, knowledge and expertise shows anytime I have a question about maintenance, troubleshooting or performance and it is truly appreciated. They took great care of my 2018 M3 when I took it in for a common preventative maintenance job involving the replacement of the OEM crankhub with a more robust aftermarket option. The OEM crankhub is known to cause catastrophic engine failure and timing issues in high shock load scenarios while changing gears so I wanted to get this job taken care of soon as possible after purchasing my M3. The pricing was very fair and Mike provided me with updates on the M3 throughout the whole process. These guys are hands down my go to guys for anything German.

They rebuilt my engine and uploaded an awesome tune. They also had great suggestions and great advice. They were clear and honest every step of the way. Their pricing was more than fair. And even when I had any issues or concerns they were always there to assist me. Definitely a stand up shop that you can trust and depend on. They do quality work and they use quality parts and tools. They take the same care as you would when you put your own car back together. They work on these cars every week and have the experience necessary to tackle any job. Call them and you won't be disappointed.

Brought in for service and carbon cleaning this week after reading reviews online. Cannot recommend enough! Extremely accommodating, knowledgeable and communicative with you. Don't waste your time anywhere else. As a first time customer, I was amazed with how they patient and thorough they were with inspecting my car and answering my questions. They are honest hard working folks who have earned my business for years to come. Side note. Get your car carbon cleaned. Runs so noticeably smoother now!

This is a great place to go for high quality work on my Audi Q5. Replaced all 4 rotors and pads, for less than half the price of the Dealership. I’m going to get all my service done there!Service: Brakes

Really glad I found this shop. These guys are experts in late model Audi and VW's. My first visit I had some minor repairs done on my 2013 A4 and look forward to coming back.
