I took my BMW 645Ci to Foreign Auto Hospital for repair due to an oil leak. I paid them a large sum for engine repairs that I was told would fix the problem with my car. However, when I picked my car up and drove it home, it was still leaking oil. I returned it to Foreign Auto Hospital a second time. After they kept the car for a week, I was assured that it was no longer leaking. That was not the case. The next day I discovered the car was still leaking and called Foreign Auto Hospital to return it to them a third time. Dimitri, the shop’s owner, checked it out again and told me the left side of the engine was still leaking and that they would re-do the repairs on that side. When I picked my car up, after they had it for almost two additional weeks the third time, the car was still leaking oil. I went to Foreign Auto Hospital a fourth time and Dimitri persisted that they had made proper repairs and oil was not leaking from the engine. He told me it was power steering fluid leaking and said he did not want to fix that problem. All along I noticed how Dimitri transitioned from being Mr. Nice Guy to rude and arrogant. I took my car to a BMW Specialist who told me that no power steering fluid is leaking from my car. I was told that oil is still leaking from the engine because repairs were not done properly. They told me that the valve cover gaskets were replaced but Foreign Auto Hospital neglected to replace the valve seals and upper timing cover gaskets, which would have stopped the leak and fixed the problem. I was also told that the job could not be done properly by simply replacing valve cover gaskets, and the additional work was a requirement. Foreign Auto Hospital claims to be a Foreign Car Specialist, they should have known this. I sent a written request for reimbursement and got no response.

I bought a Porche 911 that he replaced the engine in that he sourced, last year. At the time it was slightly not not up to his standards and he removed it and sourced another hard to find used engine with surprusingly similar mileage. It was an upgrade in power and the total cost was unchanged from our original discussion. He did the thorough work in a timely manner and was easy to communicate with. The car runs great, especially when it’s driven fast. I only wish he was my neighbor to do business with.Service: Engine repair

I bought a 2000 Porche 911 in town from out of state. He repowered the car and the engine he located was not up to standard and he informed me that the used engine wasn't up to the condition he thought it should have been. He sourced another engine and stood behind it. It's been a year, no problems. He was easy to communicate with and his timing was great. He stuck his neck out advising me before I bought the car. You should be able work with him with great confidence, I wish he was local to me.Dominic F. Fontaine

I took my car to a local BMW dealer and they gave me an estimate of over $4,600 to fix an issue related to the ValveTronic system for my 2013 X3. I was referred to Dmitry and he took care of the issue plus have my car inspected and changed the oil and filter for a little over $1,400. He is very professional and caring. I do greatly appreciate his honesty and kindness.

I found Dmitry to be arrogant, unreasonable, and overconfident. I had taken my 2001 Mercedes-Benz C320 car to him in mid-September 2022 to check for a limp-mode transmission issue. All he did was a 10-minutes’ scan of the Transmission Control Module (TCM) with a hand-held device while the car was in the parking lot. Dmitry did not do the basic transmission fluid check or anything else but charged me $120 just for the 10-minutes’ scan in the parking lot! Only on my insistence did Dmitry provide a printout of the scan and stated that he could reprogram the “faulty” TCM module for a hefty $500—adding that he would not guarantee that the transmission problem could be fixed despite the reprogramming (I declined the atrocious offer). For the 10-minutes’ scan Dmitry wanted me to pay $100 in CASH only. When I insisted on paying by credit card, he added $20 and charged me $120 ($20 as penalty for not paying in cash!). Moreover, Dmitry did not provide any tax invoice despite my request. No tax was added to the unreasonable $120 charge, and Dmitry joked that he does not like to pay taxes. NOT RECOMMENDED.Service: Transmission repair

Love this place, the owner super nice he works with you! he does great jobs and he gets it done when he says he's going to get it done. Honestly, in this area I would not get any work done on my car except by him! My stepmother had a car.. needed a lot of work somebody was trying to charge like $1,300 and gave me a better job more work done for just thousand bucks I was very happy then again he was very good with everything I went to pick up the car late even after they closed on a Sunday he still came to meet me to give me the car definitely use him if you need mechanic work
