Very thorough communicative been very happy with the service. The only reason I give 4stars is because once (I’ve used them several times) I had to have a new exhaust and cat installed. They quoted me $3200 I bought the part from the same distributor for $1800 (they probably get it for less) and had it installed at a muffler shop for $300. They do an amazing job but I guess it left a bad taste in my mouth. You can have it good, fast, or cheap never all three.

My 1974 VW Karmann Ghia wouldn't start. I called and they let me tow it in the very next day. Also needed some work done on my brakes and they had all of the parts in stock. I have a Porsche 914 and have seen them work on quite a few. Their knowledge on Volkswagen and Porsche is quite remarkable! Would highly recommend!!

Took great care of my MK2 VW Golf when it was taking on rainwater. They were very straightforward with me on what needed to be replaced and the final bill for service was very near the estimate originally given. Certainly not cheap, but neither was the fantastic work they did on my vehicle. When my antique is in peril, I will call them first!Services: Auto water leak repair

Took my car to Nate after having two horrible experiences with other mechanic shoppes in the area. He's not only friendly and courteous but very respectful. Doesn't try to oversell anything. The work he did on my 1973 VW Beetle was fantastic. Plan to continue sending him more of my business in the future. Local shoppes need to take a lesson from Nate and Broad Street's business practices.

Kudos to Nate and his Professional Mechanics ... they took my 1991 Vanagon who had been abandoned for years and restored her to a smooth and reliable traveling partner. A couple of weeks ago i had a break light problem - Nate said come right over and it was done before lunch - at no charge ! I highly recommend BSA for your Auto needs. Great Team!

Amazing VW specialist shop. Had loud axle noises on my Vanagon on a Friday morning, they diagnosed the problem and replaced my rear axle within an hour and a half with no appointment. Best mechanic experience I've ever had! My blue vanagon and I charge on to more adventures.

I live in the Bay Area and had come to SLO for a couple of days. The oil light came on during my drive here on 101 which was worrisome since I had just had my oil change done a few weeks ago. It was just a 2-day trip and my anxiety level was high since I had to get back home and could not extend my trip to get my car fixed. I brought it to this Broadstreet based on a recommendation of a friend. They were nice enough to look at it on the same day though they were loaded given my situation. They isolated the issue and fixed it pretty quickly while I waited. Additional points for having free wifi. It's always about the people. Ferdinand is the person who checked me in, very friendly and cheerful. Nate the mgr was awesome and very communicative and helpful. He told me that their customers ship their rare cars here from all over the country to get it fixed which is incredible. Johnathan was the person who worked on my car and was awesome! The biggest surprise was when Nate told me that Johnathan owned the store. Usually, owners sit back and let others do the work so it was amazing to see him dig in with the rest of the employees, he obviously loves his job and his store. Now if only they open up a location in the Bay Area!

While on my first vacation in 4 years and after putting several thousand into my Jetta to rebuild the transmission and other routine maintenance at 120,000 miles or so, my car starts to shake. I tried a mechanic in Cambria where I was staying on vacation and am told they can't get to my car for at least a day or two. After making several calls someone recommends Broad Street. I call and, after giving Nate the computer code and letting him know I'm on vacation in Cambria, he tells me he can probably fit me in if I get my car to him as soon as possible. So, I make the trek down to SLO and he starts working on it right away. Less than 2 hours and 5 cylinders later I have my car and my vacation back. This was probably one of the best experiences I've ever had with a mechanic.

It seems like these guys are always working on wandering travelers! I am one of them. I was travelling from Northern California on my way to the desert and decided to camp a night in Morro Bay in my 95 Eurovan Winnie. After parking at the camp ground, I noticed a big puddle of coolant. Connecting the dot with the whine that I heard on the drive down, I suspected water pump failure. I called multiple shops and they were all booked at least a week out and weren't even interested in taking a look. Although the Broad Street VPA was booked as well, Nate asked to bring the van in to take a look. Long story short, his team was clear about what was needed. Also made a recommendation for replacing a plastic coolant hose flange, as well as doing the recommended timing belt job as a part of the water pump, which all made sense. Pricing was reasonable. What won me over was the clear communication and care that they put into their work. Also seeing a bunch of Vanagon, Eurovans, and other euro vehicles helped in confidence. Only wish is that they should be near where I live! I thank you all, Nate, Jonathan, and Jesse. You guys rock.
