Horton's German Auto Repair

After repeated terrible experiences with a local mobile mechanic, Horton's does the job right the first time! They are honest when shamefully, most are not.
Thank you Rainbow and all, you are truly appreciated!!

If you don't know how to do the work yourself (in which case you wouldn't be at a mechanic to begin with), you are at their mercy. Cars are seriously expensive to have and maintain without facing incompetence and/or deception on top of that 😥

Thank you Horton's! I recommend you whenever I can. I'm sure my VW will bring me your way again but hopefully not too soon 🙂

I cannot say enough good things about the people and the service I received at Horton's. My headlamp burned out and needed to be replaced. They let me just stop by, they stopped what they were doing to replace my bulb , which was not a simple task. I am so appreciative of Rainbow and the rest of the Horton's team. Thank you for being so kind.

AWESOME, the only word that comes to mind. They made my VW better than it had ever been and a very reasonable cost. WOW.

Horton’s fixed up our 2002 lemon of a Volvo and got it purring again. I couldn’t believe it, it lives! They were accommodating as we had to have it towed someplace else first and were able to work us back in to the schedule even though we technically lost our place in line. They were courteous, communicative, and respectful throughout the whole process.

We started going there with our Mercedes. The staff is knowledgeable about my car. They are professional, polite, and friendly.

10/28/2020 - We had another AMAZING experience with HORTON'S yesterday. My daughters car started running really rough, both the check engine light and EPC lights came on and she needed to drive back to Portland to nursing school last night. So i called at 10:00 am and explained to them what was happening. They said they could get it on the rack at 1 to diagnose the problem and tell us if it would be ok for her to drive or not. We dropped the car off and within a little more than an hour they called to tell us what the problem was, that they had the part and could replace it before the end of the day. The total cost was under $260. I can't THANK everyone at HORTON'S enough for their great customer service!! We will recommend you to friends and family and continue to use their services when needed.

11/2019 - I can't recommend this place or mechanics/owner enough. Called right before closing and they got me in the next morning to run diagnostics on my daughters car. Within a couple hours they called with the repair needed, had ordered the part and it was fixed by the afternoon. The price for diagnostics, part and labor were on point and they are extremely friendly.

Porsche owners look no further for service needs - Horton's will delivery high quality at reasonable prices - check them out! My experience has been stellar - 2007 Porsche Boxster S.

They were very nice people .They kept me up dated on my husband's car he passed away in Oct last year. He was trying to finish his mercades but got sick I called horton's and they took it inand got his wish completed for me .They kept me updated on the cost and asked if I wanted to go on .very good of them .I would recommend them to anyone that need BMW or Mercedes worked on Thank you so much Horton's

Came here with a blown motor in my old 1995 318is. I had already lowered the car and it had many other new parts in it and I hated the slow old m42 anyway so I asked them to swap it.

To make a long story short, Hortons German Auto Repair was able to accommodate a serious task with reasonable pricing and a very excellent job well done.

The best part about this experience was communication. As with any motor swap, there are tons of variables to consider and each time I needed to get new parts they called me and let me know where I could find them at a good cost. They also worked with me on pricing being I'm a student working part time. However I like my car and didn't want the cheapest available mechanic. I wanted the most comprehensive and error free job possible and I definitely feel I got that here. You get what you pay for and I think coming here was a smart move.

They were patient when I had to order the mid pipes, get the other exhaust in, and helped me set up dropping off the motor we swapped in. They identified my clutch needing to go and did not charge me additional labor for this. Same with a faulty water pump.

Ross, Patty and Robert were all very pleasant and overall I feel they greatly assisted me in this entire ordeal. I now have a fantastic, much quicker and lower mile motor running in my car. The wiring is all neatly done and any custom fabbing was minimal aside from exhaust fitment, which they were able to do in shop. I tried to provide the best parts and OEM only so I'm sure this helped.

Robert was the mechanic who did pretty much everything. He even fixed my door for me which was very cool. He did many extra and awesome things you'd expect to find at a reputable shop. Belts were all replaced, fluids checked and replaced if necessary, e brake tightened, the door handle issue which was horrible, fixed. Fuses and electrical components like fog lights that once didn't work, now do. He explained how the shift linkages were slightly different since we kept my transmission and it now basically feels exactly like a short shift kit which is nice. Oil was changed and anywhere fitment or mounting required custom work, Robert came through. Great mechanic. Everything works, he said if I return with the correct hose my ac will blow ice cold too!

There were some bumps along the way but again, with swaps of this nature this is to be expected. The pricing, accommodation and overall quality of work and satisfaction can't be beat. I will be returning here for future work on my suspension components and regular tune ups!

Edit:

They have now also helped me identify and easily solve a slight coolant leak, installed and recharged the air conditioner which blows ice cold, and also installed A susension “x brace” which protects the oil pan and adds stability and improves handling. And done a few oil changes.

Everything was an addition to the car, not a repair and the coolant leak was just a loose hose. So again, awesome place!

I am now experiencing a slight oil leak and would also like some mounts and bushings swapped out, so the team at Hortons will be hearing from me shortly for another job :)

Always professional and the only place I'll trust with our Jetta. A little bit pricey but in this day and age a small price to pay for reliability.

We have taken our car in to Horton's since moving into town a couple of years ago. Out of my 30+ years of dealing with auto mechanics, they are the most honest and professional I have come across. I could not recommend them enough.

Got the fuel pump replaced in my e320 and they were very easy to work with. Charged less than expected and got done faster than I expected.
Very easy process.

Took my Bimmers to Horton's, years ago. Took my Audi in for a quick fix this week and got what I expected, quality work at a fair price. Horton's is the best in town for German Auto Repair.

Solid repairs, great service.

VW van owners like me have Horton's on speed dial. VW whisperers are hard to find, a great one like Horton's is a God send. TYTY for keeping the bus alive

Awesome team of people working hard to give you the best service possible.
Keeping my Mini on the road!

Great experience and very knowledgeable about Land rovers!

The friendly folks here fixed my car quickly and at a fair price. What more could you want?

If you own a German car this is the place you should have your car repaired.

Brought my Jetta in for a timing belt and water pump service and they beat the dealership by several hundred dollars.
