Engine repair service near Wauconda, IL

Awful place. I brought my car there because the front driver's side wheel was making a scraping sound. The owner Bill went on a ride with me so he could hear the sound, which he did and had an idea of what it could be. I brought the car back during my scheduled time, which after waiting for about 4 hours after I dropped it off that they can't figure out what is wrong with it, saying there seems to be nothing wrong with the "rear: tires. They spent 4 hours looking at the wrong end of the car. I told them and the owner knew that it was the front driver side. After 3 more hours after the phone call I go there to see what is going on to find my car outside, not even being looked at. And no phone call giving me any more information on it. The girl at the front desk said it "must be my brakes" and I should get a certain kind to fix the issues. The brakes are BRAND NEW CERAMIC BRAKES, not cheap metallic ones. It's not the brakes. Then she said it must be the rotors because they had some wear on them. Please you have no idea what it is and the owner decided to go home a few hours after they opened. Poor Communication. Lastly, I took my car home to find grease all over the driver side interior door and a large scratch right in the doorway (freshly scratched). The grease has been a pain to get off and the scratch is down to the metal. I have photos to post as well. POOR SERVICE.

My brother-in-law purchased a used scanner from Skip and after updating it through the dealer, a couple of Arlington Heights and Wauconda Police Detectives showed up at his place of business to confiscate the scanner as it was reported stolen by its original owner (Skips friend from Lattoff Chevrolet). This information can be verified through the freedom of information act as it is on file with the Arlington Heights and Wauconda Police Departments. Mike called and called Skip left several messages for him to call him back never to hear from him. Finally talked him and he said he doesn’t have the money to give back to him and he won’t give him anything else of value to compensate me for my losses. I happen to know that he sends the machine work that he is supposed to do for his customers to other machining businesses to do for him but then doesn’t check it when he gets it back and has had some problems because of that. That’s if you can get it back from him after several excuses of why he has not touched it after several months of having it to work on. I know some people that he has had their jobs for more than 6 months and finally said he has to order parts and it will be another couple of months before the parts come in. Skip also has a really big mouth and likes to talk about everyone else’s business, he also likes to say what everyone else is doing wrong with their business but doesn’t know how to run his own business

Called to get the engine seals replaced, he said they do that repair but it was miss diagnosed and hade me spend over $600.00 with no result complete rip off, put a faulty part on my car which I needed replace again within a year, did not acknowledge. I would not recommend this shop for any work on the car

I highly recommend Steve and crew for repairing your Audi (and other makes). After a long search for repairing my car, Steve was very helpful over the phone without even seeing the car. He gave me an honest opinion and range or repair cost - again, without seeing the car. I brought it in and he repaired it and a couple other things he found that were related. When I came to pick the car up, he noticed another issue when pulling it up for me. He brought it right back in the garage and let me borrow his car while they made this additional repair. I was not charged for this, as Steve took responsibility for it. Honesty and fair pricing is difficult to find, especially with cars that are expensive to fix, and I'm thrilled I've landed at a place I can trust and use moving forward. I highly recommend Auto Imports and Steve. Seth Mindel

What an amazing experience! I was greeted by the lovely owner, Debbie, and her little assistant. Debbie is so sweet, she made me very comfortable and I left the business knowing that I will return here with confidence. My service was fast and at a great price! My light is finally working like it should and I'm very grateful to Jose for doing such a great job. I'm recommending this business to all my friends.

The guys at Foreign Car Clinic did a great job on my repair. I brought them a 2004 BMW M3 with a broken variable valve timing (VANOS) unit. When the unit gave out, multiple bolts broke off into the camshaft. The mechanic at Foreign Car clinic was able to extract the bolts salvage the camshaft. This was a complex repair and it could have cost me a lot more if it wasn't for their skill in fixing the problem.
