Manuel Mota just saved me $5,000! I had my car (a 2008 3 series with 63,000 miles on it) towed to the service department at BMW of Birmingham after it stalled in the middle of an intersection. After they charged me $190 for a diagnostic to tell me that the engine had “locked up” ( it would have costed another thousand bucks to know why) and that I needed a new engine ($18,000 for a new one, $6,000 for a used), I had the car towed to Mota Autohaus to get a second opinion. Manuel quickly assessed that I simply needed a new alternator. He promptly fixed it the day the alternator arrived in his shop and the car is running like new. The cost, $700.00 (he also had to replace all the oil the dealership’s service department had drained). Best, most competent, professional service I have encountered in a long time!

February 4, 2020Manuel was awesome, very knowledgeable and honest. I had many issues with my BMW that he fixed in a very timely manner and was very fair with pricing. He also gave me recommendations for parts and advice relating to the track. The waiting room is also cool. This is THE place to bring your BMW!

August 20, 2019Driving BMWs for 40 years we now own two, an 18 year old BMW E46 and a 29 year old BMW E30. Before finding Mota Autohaus older BMW maintenance was definitely a problem, I've lost count of the ripoffs and horror stories using 3 other local shops in particular. Manuel always does what he promises, fixes it CORRECTLY and there are NO cheap "knock off" parts, only QUALITY OEM parts. There's no "Bait & Switch" GOTCHAS when the Final Invoice comes, the estimates hold up when it's time to pay. Thanks for your Expertise Manuel! brian

July 31, 2022I could not say enough great things about Mota Autohaus and Manny from their team. I always get the work that I need done on my car in a timely manner and at an affordable price. I have an interest in how cars work and Manny even walks me through what he is doing so I learn something every time. I strongly recommend Mota Autohaus!
