Bringing your European vehicle to us is straightforward. Here’s how the process works from your first call to picking up your keys.
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
Convenience While Your Vehicle Is Serviced
We offer a free shuttle service so you don’t have to rearrange your day around your repair. Drop off your vehicle and we can get you where you need to go.
Every visit also includes a free Courtesy Inspection covering the major systems of your vehicle: lights, brakes, suspension, tires, and battery. It’s a straightforward look at where things stand, delivered with the same no-pressure approach as the rest of your visit.
Full-Service European Auto Repair in Austin
From a routine oil change to a complex electrical diagnosis, we provide comprehensive care for European vehicles at every service interval.
Services we perform on European vehicles include:
- Oil changes using manufacturer-recommended fluids
- Brake service and ABS brake diagnostics
- Engine and transmission repair
- Suspension and steering inspections
- Electrical system diagnostics
- Timing belt and water pump replacement
- Factory-scheduled maintenance and tune-ups
- Check engine light troubleshooting
Austin’s driving conditions shape how we approach maintenance recommendations. Stop-and-go traffic on MoPac and I-35 puts real wear on brake systems and drivetrain components. Central Texas heat is also one of the leading causes of premature battery failure, which is why we recommend battery testing or replacement around every three years for vehicles driven here regularly.
Schedule your European Vehicle Service at Christian Brothers Automotive Brodie Lane by calling (512) 607-7623. We’re here for Austin drivers who want honest answers and quality work.

German Brands

Owners of ultra-luxury or exotic models such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, or McLaren are welcome to contact us before scheduling. Some of these vehicles require highly specialized tools or may exceed standard liability coverage, and we want to make sure we’re the right fit before you bring your vehicle in.
