Why European Vehicle Owners Choose Us
Servicing a European vehicle correctly takes more than general mechanical ability. The electrical architecture, proprietary fault codes, and factory service intervals on German, British, Swedish, and Italian platforms each behave differently, and the tools have to match. Our shop is built for exactly that, and our owner/operators are on-site every day, so the accountability you get here isn’t filtered through a regional manager or a call center.
- The Right Technology for the Job: Working on a Porsche or a Land Rover is fundamentally different from servicing a domestic vehicle. Our facility is outfitted with metric tools and OEM-level diagnostic software, the same kind used at authorized dealerships, so we can accurately read complex fault codes, reset service indicators, and perform intricate repairs with precision.
- Technicians with Advanced Training: Our technicians undergo continuous training on the latest service procedures, diagnostic technologies, and software for European vehicles. Whether your car has a turbocharged MINI Cooper engine, a modern diesel Mercedes powertrain, or the sophisticated components of a high-performance Alfa Romeo, our team has the detailed knowledge and hands-on experience to service it properly.
- A Transparent Digital Inspection Process: Every service begins with a complimentary digital vehicle inspection. We provide a detailed report with photos and videos of our findings before any work is approved. Your service advisor can walk you through the results and recommendations, and you can approve or deny any work directly through the inspection report or by phone.
- The Nice difference. Warranty: All work performed at our shop is covered for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever is longer, and that warranty is honored at any Christian Brothers Automotive location nationwide. It’s a level of coverage that reflects real confidence in the work.
- Free Shuttle Service: Drop your vehicle off and we can get you where you need to go. Our Free Shuttle Service means a repair appointment doesn’t have to derail your day.
European Vehicle Services We Offer
We offer a complete range of services for European makes and models. One thing worth knowing: under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, having your vehicle serviced at an independent shop doesn’t void your manufacturer’s warranty, as long as the work meets manufacturer specifications and the correct fluids and parts are used. We use manufacturer-recommended fluids and filters as a matter of course, and we work with all major extended warranty providers as well.
- Routine Maintenance: Oil changes using manufacturer-recommended fluids and filters, fluid flushes, and scheduled factory maintenance.
- Brake Systems: Thorough brake inspections, pad and rotor replacements, and advanced anti-lock brake system (ABS) diagnostics and repair.
- Engine & Drivetrain: In-depth engine and transmission repair, including diagnostics for performance and reliability issues.
- Suspension & Steering: Inspections and service for suspension and steering systems to maintain handling and ride quality.
- Electrical Diagnostics: Troubleshooting and repair of electrical systems, including sensors, wiring, and computer modules.
- Major Repairs: Timing belt and water pump replacements and other services essential to long-term engine health.
- Check Engine Light: Diagnostics to identify and address the root cause of check engine light illumination.
