Santa Barbara German Auto Repair

Excellent in ALL aspects. Totally trust them to find and fix everything that needs fixing. The staff always check and keeps us customers informed so there are no surprises. I have been going to Schneider's for over 10 years and my MiniCooper is running great. The Personnel is "over the top" great!!!!

These guys were simply amazing! I wish all repair people were as thoughtful, reasonable, and confident as these guys. They literally save my Boxster from the salvage yard in all probability. Of course, I would have allowed NPR to perform that task via a donation to KCLU since I could not bear to do it myself. It would be as bad as putting down a beloved pet. But they got my car up and running and looking good as new, mas o menos— OK, a lot more menos than mas given 22 years old age, and fact that my sweet bloodhounds used it as a mobile dog house for the last 15 years.

Kept me well informed on work that needed to be done now and in future.

Excellent service. They came well recommended after moving from the area serviced by another mechanic

The Schneider gang gets it done.

The work was done thoroughly and at a fair price

It’s always a great experience. They know their stuff and are very fair. I highly recommend them if you have a Porsche or BMW. Especially an old one.

I had my car serviced a couple of months ago and the mechanic found a couple of items that needed fixing - replacement of the cam shaft oil lines and replacement of the shifting bushings. Glad they found these matters. I finally was able to bring my 1984 Carrera in and they fixed both items. I could really tell the difference in the shifting - much smoother and more precise, just like it shifted when new. Schneider's isn't the cheapest, non-dealer Porsche garage around, but they are by far the best and worth the price. Very efficient and friendly as well.

Great service, friendly staff. Highly recommend

Great service, great communication. Honest and trustworthy! I wouldn’t take my vehicle to anyone else!
