Lincoln Avenue European Auto Service

David is very professional and up front with what needed to be done with my car. My 2006 CLK350 was in rough shape—there were 2 cylinder misfires, vibration in the engine, and a leak in the manifold. He was able to fix all of the problems in 2 days…my car has been running smoothly ever since. His honesty, professionalism, and integrity are rare commodities in the auto repair world. Even though his shop is slightly farther than I would prefer, I do not see myself allowing any other mechanic to come near my car. Thank you, David!

Our Volvo XC60 started giving off hot engine temp alerts and we needed to get it seen FAST. I have two small kids, and this is our only car, so not being able to use it was a real issue. Called our local Volvo service center and they wouldn't give me an appointment for weeks, not even as an emergency. Stumbled upon Lincoln Ave Auto, called their number, and was told to bring the car over. In less than two hours, we had a diagnosis and they began working on it. I told David that I needed a way to pick my son up from school later that day. He told me he would do his best to get the car back to me in time, ahead of a weekend too. He made it happen and really saved us. I wouldn't hesitate to go back there if we have any future car troubles!

These guys are the best. Bought an upgraded factory part for my 2018 Jaguar E-Pace which the Dealer wanted over 2 hours labor to install. Lucky I found Angelo at Lincoln Ave Auto Service Center. The fix saved me more than half of what the Dealer wanted to install the part.
They are honest and professional and I will be back.

Just wanted to take a moment to leave a positive review for Lincoln Ave. Auto. I brought my '92 GTI to check a possible leak and an occasional clunk from the front end when turning. David checked my car over, gave me some insights on what may need repair/replacement in the near future, but ultimately gave my car a clean bill of health (just a minor power steering leak). Long story short, he could have come up with some "preventive" measures to charge me with, but in the end, he told me to take my car home and drive it!

And, amazingly, he didn't charge me one cent. This is definitely an honest and trustworthy place to bring your European auto.

Simply the BEST and most FAIR auto body and mechanic shop I have ever been to! When my volkswagen started having problems, I immediately took it to the dealer who gave me a laundry list of problems and a big estimate. Not knowing what to do, I called my friend who immediately recommended David and Lincoln Ave Auto Repair. When I went, David diagnosed my car within 10 minutes and gave me an estimate which was 10% the cost of what the dealer had estimated! He saved me so much money, and I am so thankful to have found him. He fixed my car by the next morning, and it has been driving perfectly since. At Lincoln Ave Auto, they are European car experts, and David, the owner, is meticulous about his work. He and his entire staff are so pleasant and fair as well. If you want a trusted mechanic/auto body repair team to give you the best work at the best price, Lincoln Ave Auto is the choice!

I have struggled for years to find a good mechanic that I can trust with my cars. A few months ago, I saw the reviews for Lincoln Ave Auto Repair and decided to bring our car there.

I cannot say enough good things about Dave. He is simply one of the nicest, most trustworthy professionals I've met in a service business. I've since brought my other cars to him and he treats every one as if they are his own. I give Dave and Lincoln Ave Auto Repair my highest recommendation.

I found David and Lincoln Ave Auto Repair while searching for local repair shops online after the Audi dealership tried to overcharge me for tires. I was truly amazed at how fair the costs were at Lincoln Ave Auto Repair. It is a family owned business, and the staff is extremely kind and helpful. David, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and spoke to me for 20 minutes and answered all of my questions about my car. Thankful to have finally found a trusted mechanic. I give my highest recommendation for Lincoln Avenue Auto Repair.

These guys are the best! After being treated poorly at Jack Daniels Porsche and paying through the roof for every repair, David was recommended as an alternative to repair my Panamera and I have never looked back. I have been coming here for 2 years now and trust them to take care of everything needed for my Porsche. Five stars plus

Love the service. We brought our 2003 Land Rover Discovery for significant engine work and David saved us time, headache and cost. We now also bring our 2016 Audi A4 AllRoad and 2017 Porsche Boxter for routine maintenance, so far. Great mechanics, timely and trustworthy. Thank you

The service was excellent. My car is running good as new and it cost me a fraction of what the dealer was asking for. If you need specialized European car repair, Lincoln ave auto is the go-to place! It's a family owned business and the owners are extremely fair, kind and honest people.

Took my 2006 Audi A6 with 150,000 miles to my local dealer. The 'check engine' light was on. He ran the scan and told me I needed a new timing chain for $10,100 (yes, that is not a misprint), new catalytic convertor for $2,100, and a manifold flap for $360. Mentioned this to my Volvo dealer (Paul's in Hawthorne) who ran a scan for me that only turned up the manifold flap issue. Paul's said they had the 'Rolls Royce' of scanners that worked on Audi's too. Paul's did not have the specific Audi tool to fix the car so I brought the car to Lincoln Ave Auto. Their scan turned out the same as Paul's - only the manifold flap. They had the tool to fix it and charged me $220. The check engine light went off. They road tested the car and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with my timing chain or my catalytic convertor. Car runs perfectly!

The dealer was basically trying to steal my car. He likely would have given me a low trade-in on my 'timing chain challenged' car. He could have then had it fixed at Lincoln Ave for $220 and turned around and sold it at a nice profit. In the meantime he was pushing to sell me a new Audi. it was just lucky for me that the people at Lincoln Avenue have the expertise and integrity to service their customer in a fair manner. Guess where I'm going the next time my Audi needs maintenance or repair? Lincoln Avenue Auto repair is the place to be!

a few years ago i was looking for a mechanic that i could trust to bring my mini cooper for tune ups + repairs. i found lincoln ave auto online + when i went there to check things out, i found the owner, david, honestly advising me about the concerns i had regarding my car. a previous mechanic told me that i needed to replace something in my car when david assured me that i did not.
on a recent visit, i brought my car in for a few repairs + david gave me a quote for the work. unfortunately, he came across a problem + had to spend several more days than expected on the job. he was very appologetic each time we spoke. i wondered if his extra time meant that the job would cost more than his original quote. when i asked him, his response was "no, i gave you my word, and i want to honor that." david's honesty, knowledge + work ethic have my respect.

David and crew has worked on our older Volvo's for years. If I bring him the parts, he installs them with no issues at a reasonable cost. Old school mechanic which is hard to find today!

Very Happy I didn’t invest in Mercedes Maitinence program. Lincoln Ave specializes in Merceedes and uses Mercedes Parts, always does great work and is a trusted source! Thankful for the recommendation that lead me to David, Lincoln Ave it’s been 10 years already. So fortunate he’s near by.

My SUV (RX300) was making a horribly loud grinding noise. Took my car to Lincoln Ave Auto Repair since I had my brakes repaired there and was very satisfied with the repair. I was asked to pop hood, which I did. He came back with some power steering fluid, filled up the container and sent me on my way.... No charge!! Noise is gone! Don't find that kind of service around much anymore.

I have now had 4 solid experiences with Lincoln Auto (Volvo & Honda) ... each repair was done professionally , within quoted price and car was ready in a timely matter ...and always greeted with a smile .. I recommend Lincoln as a wonderful cost effective alternative to the auto dealership service center.

Love this place! The owner and staff are super helpful. Fixed my truck issue. I had taken it to two other places a that could not find the problem. Truly thank you for you help.

Absolutely the best! David and his wife Marjan are very helpful, kind, and a pleasure to work with. They go above and beyond to not only take care of my car but to also educate me on what is going on with it. I will always come back. Highly recommended! Thank you!

This place gets the job done right...dealers price to high go see these guys...great service at a great price....ask for David ...

The owner is the embodiment of hard work and honesty. I will not hesitate to bring my car back to this mechanic in the future.
