This place is a gem and has saved me literally thousands of dollars. They are as honest as the day is long and are very kind to boot! I have now had 2 instances where the dealer told me I needed some work done (to the tune of thousands of dollars) and when I follow up with Dave, they confirm my instincts were correct: no work necessary! There is no better BMW service in the East Bay!! Thank you, Dave and Dave!!

Been taking my 2004 325ci to this shop for more than five years, never had a problem with the work, the pricing or verbal estimates on work not yet done.

Absolutely BMW specialist. They do not work on any other models and they are very good at working on this model of vehicles. Very honest and trustworthy.

I took my car in because my X3 had a starter issue. I chose this place because of the reviews but I should have been more cautious. As a woman, you never know if you are being scammed and I feel like that was my experience. I was told by Dave that I needed to replace the module due to a sensor issue. They went ahead and replaced the part and days later, told me the car was ready. They never gave me a price until the work was done and they said, I will need to do another $1500 repair but, in the meantime, my car should have no issue starting, it will only shake in the morning for 10-15 seconds but will still come on. Unfortunately, the car will no longer cut on, I am not even sure the module was replaced by Jerome (the tech). I feel completely scammed. I would not recommend taking your car here.

I bought a 2017 2 series last year and only had a pre-purchase inspection done by my local mechanic (he's not a BMW specialist). When it later started to have a new issue related to its exhaust system he said I should take it to the dealership. Not wanting to go that route I looked for an independent BMW repair shop and found San Leandro Auto BMW. They were great, they instantly knew the issue with my car, were very knowledgeable, helpful, freindly and alltogether down to earth people. They even dropped me off at BART and picked me up when the car was done. I will be going back for regular (and unscheduled!) maintenance.

San Leandro auto is one of the gems in automotive still around. They are honest considerate top flight service and expertise. I like the shop so much , I only want to drive BMW s. It is so vital to have a good mechanic. They have kept my 2005 x 3 on the road with 243,000 miles. It runs great due to them. They really have a passion for BMW. Convenient to Bart. I can drop my car and head to work. If you invest in. BMW you can trust in the care of the Dave s.

I have a 2000 z3 bmw that needs work to bring back to it's former glory. They are extremely knowledgeable and no nonsense advise and great prices. Most honest bunch of mechanics that I've ever had. They take really good care of you and the car. They were able to replace my cam shaft and fix a bunch of issues causing the check engine light to come on which previous mechanics missed. Highly recommend these guys!

The owner Dave is hands down the most honest mechanic I've ever done business with. Been going here over 30 years with multiple BMW's. With his son they're ranked #1

We have 3 BMWs a 2006 X5, a 2007 Z4 and a 2013 550. All are out of warranty and prepaid service. We have been using Dave and Dave for over a year. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt they will find the issue and fix it for much less than a dealership. I have complete trust in them as does my wife. Great people. I enjoy just chatting with them. You won't be disappointed.
