Techstar European Car Masters

Techstar is the place to go for your car. They gave me a rental when my car was in their shop, so I could keep working. Peter is the real deal when it comes to European cars. He tells you how it is.

I am new to the area and typically do all of my own car work. I had an issue that I had thought I fixed, but turned out to make it worse (oil drip). Brought it in after talking to Peter on the phone and he assured me they’ll take a look and get it fixed. Talked to Neil who I think was one of the head mechanics for about 20 minutes waiting for my car to be dropped off. He was able to diagnose the problem before the car was even there. He called me an hour after drop off telling me the problem. Told him to fix it. He had it done the same day by close. He personally tore the car apart then went to the bmw dealership to pick up my new valve cover and gaskets. All in all I will be going back there for as long as I own any european vehicles! Everyone is extremely friendly and welcoming and Peter definitely understands how to run a business.

Best place, pitter and johanna are great !
Loved the way they treated my clk 350 and these guys know what theyre doing!!!

I’m so glad I found Techstar. After my BMW’s warranty was up I was in search of a local good shop. After I met Peter and had my car serviced, I knew I found the right place. I’ve been taking my cars to him for several years now and he has always done what was needed while trying to keep costs down. This is a great local business!

Peter was the 4^th mechanic I had look at my 2004 BMW. Initially I called him to change my engine out based on what the other 3 mechanics had discovered. One of the previous mechanics I took the car to was the BMW dealership it cost me over $ 400 to get half a diagnosis. When I called Peter he diagnosed the car with ¼ of the cost and had the correct diagnosis. The engine was good it actually needed other repairs. I had Peter repair my vehicle, a vehicle I was ready to throw in the towel on. I picked up the car yesterday and it is running like a BMW should run, fast and smooth. In my first conversation with Peter I could just tell he was a cut above all the other mechanics. Thank you Peter for your Professional and Honest business. Not to many of those around.

Have you ever wished you had a mechanic in the family? If you arent lucky enough to have one then having peter and his team at Techstar are the next best thing. You can tell peter and his wife genuinely have your best interests at heart and treat you as if you were a family member. They give you straight up honest information and then give you the best service at an amazing rate. I have always left here feeling happy and lucky to have found such a great shop. Last time I was in i was in such a rush I dropped my car off on empty and i noticed it was filled up halfway when i picked it up. Sweetest people, honest, excellent service, I wont take my car anywhere else!

1^st time customer. Let me tell you, I was so impressed! I delt personally with the owner. This gentleman is so straight forward, genuine and transparent. At one point Peter came to me in the guest lounge and he had a concerned look. My heart started racing a lil. He took me to my car and what came next shocked the sh#t out of me. He 1^st asked did you have any previous work to car. I say yes. He says follow me, we go to car he shows me inside of my cars mechanics. He pointed out what was wrong, the why’s it went wrong. I love when things are broken down to me, I get educated and I am made to feel as a partner in the process. This shop is now my go to mechanic shop for all my Mercedes future anything! Also worth noting. My car was shaking, running low power, ect. When I drove my car off– it ran smooth, no more pulling, no low power and this was without the needed repairs! I’m bringing car back tomorrow becuz parts needed to be ordered. Wow, I am so impressed already. Thank you God and Thank you Autowerks. I’m feeling very grateful and relieved as quoted service price is majorly reasonable. I left feeling Happy with my car again! :)

Very friendly and car repaired but engine noise returned in less than 30 days.

I don’t usually write reviews because I rarely find great service. Especially in the car repair industry. As I had just moved to the Temecula are in the past year from NJ, I didn’t know anyone to recommend a repair shop for my BMW. As most BMW owners, I love my car so leaving my car in the hands of just any mechanic is a bit frightening. I actually researched a repair shop before I moved here. I found Techstar and read the reviews. I made the appt. and brought my car in for A/​C service. I met with Peter, who is such a nice guy. When I went back to pick up my car, he went thru all the diagnostics and the final results. The air is now blowing ice cold. I can’t thank you enough for being honest and not upselling like most others I find. And thanks for having a great mechanic. If your like me and are picky about where you bring your baby, this is the place to go.

I am very pleased with my car repair. Work performed at the price I was quoted and at a reasonable rate. Work was completed within the promised time-​frame. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and professional. My car was also washed and vacuumed. I recommend this mechanic and will now have all of my cars serviced here. Thank you Techstar!

I just called to ask questions about Volvo — cost to own. And let me tell you, I have never been told such honesty over the phone. Both the lady and gentleman that answered was polite and patient.
Thanks for your honesty.

It just does not get better than this. I had purchased a 2008 Audi A4 and needed to get the 75K service done. I read the reviews and decided to try Techstar European Car Masters. From the minute I walked in, Peter, the owner made me feel like family, his attitude is all about the customer and meeting the customers expectations… and he exceeded mine. My car runs amazing after the service and Peter had all the old parts that were changed in a box for me. Techstar has earned my business and I highly recommend them to anybody looking for a quality shop, where customer satisfaction is what drives them and honesty and fair pricing is a way of doing business.

I have been coming to techstar for over a year now. I can honestly say, i wont go to any other repair shop for my car. The staff is the best. They are honest about their work. The price for their work is fair. Not overpriced. They provide you with the best work. They know me by name, treat me as if i am family. I recommend this shop to everyone. Neil is the best mechanic! Shout out to him! Thank you Techstar, ill see you next time!

After visiting a Mercedes dealership for a few minor maintenance issues and leaving disappointed, I looked for an alternative auto maintenance resource. That’s when I found Techstar.
I just had our 2013 Mercedes Benz E350 oil changed for the third time at Techstar. The service was outstanding in all three visits. If you are looking for an auto repair service that is friendly, honest, competitive, and has integrity, then I would highly recommend that you use Techstar for your maintenance requirements. You will enjoy Peter and his staff.

Very good customer service. Nice resolution. Good communication. I recommend.

Alex is a Master at his craft! Great people, Great work, fair prices and honest! If you have a European vehicle, this should be your mechanic of choice.

Techstar is a great Family run business with excellent service. We’ve taken our daughters 1998 BMW for all kinds of various repairs. Peter is very fair, explaining all the options. Despite our daughter’s efforts, the car is running just fine thanks to Peter and his crew. I wouldn’t take our car anywhere else, they are reasonably priced and provide great service.

Ever since I discovered Techstar, I haven’t thought twice about where I should take my 2004 Land Rover Discovery for service. I had the pleasure of working with Peter, the owner, and Jesse who was the first person I interfaced with at the shop. Both were very knowledgeable, while bringing the human element back into the relationship between business and customer. This shop is simply top of the line when it comes to service and performance. I recommend Peter and Techstar to anyone who is looking for peace of mind while their vehicle is being serviced. I would honestly travel from outside Temecula to have my Rover serviced at Techstar.

I am a high mileage driver and have experienced a broad range of service over the years. I located Techstar on the internet and selected them from several choices as a second opinion. From the moment I entered the facility I was impressed with the apparent organization and cleanliness. Peter and his staff were both knowledgeable and accommodating. The mechanical issues I was dealing with were analyzed and the repairs were made in a timely manner, at a very fair price and at considerable savings. I am impressed with Techstar at every level and have no hesitation in writing this review or recommending their services. They will continue to be my BMW service resource of choice. John K

We’ve been coming here for the past couple of years and have never been disappointed. Owner Peter is personable and very helpful as well as the rest of the staff we have interacted with.
Service is outstanding. Always easy to get the car in and the turnaround time is quick. Very glad to have this specialized car repair/​service biz in town.
