Great people work here. I took in an old 1972 351C block because of some stuck bolts I couldn't get with my tools at home. They got it off with no problem, they didn't charge me for anything. I had planned on paying for the use of the tool and a few minutes but they wouldnt let me. Definitely where I am taking my business from now on.

I agree with Gene. In my case I drive a diesel Sprinter, very hard to get good service on to begin with because it is all German. I live in Montana too. I was referred to Westport Autohouse by a friend whose personal experience was very similar to the other review. So I called and made an appointment. The owner - Mike- insisted that because he had to order parts I should plan on leaving it overnight. I told him - Ok but- I had to be finished by 4 PM on Thursday since i had to be in another part of the state for business on Friday. The initial estimate was fine and was accurate to what needed to be done according to my research on the problems and the symptoms. The final bill came in a bit higher but they had completed all the repairs, the van drove smoothly and perfectly for the first time in months !! I am elated. I had been in a Mercedes Benz dealership earlier to get the same things done and they wanted over $2,000 more and most of that was for the wrong stuff anyway. I highly recommend Westport Autohouse and plan to use them every time I need a repair in the future. Tim B.

Amazing customer service! I was given a breakdown of services I would need ..they even offered discounts. They were really honest and answered all of my questions. Also given their opinion on which services I should prioritize since I wasn't able to pay for all of the services that day. 100000% would recommend to everyone. Especially if you're a woman because I didn't get the vibe that they were trying to take advantage of my lack of knowledge. Leanna B. Saint Louis, MO

I came in with a huge radiator failure and John and the guys here definitely gave me the best service and deal on the rates. They're going to be my permanent auto shop home for a while!!

We all know how hard it is to find trustworthy business people today who are genuinely concerned with your satisfaction, but these guys are the real deal! I've been a customer for several years and don't have to concern myself with wondering if I'm being given the right diagnosis or solution to the problem. It makes all the difference. Moreover, Nas and his staff are highly skilled and competent at their craft. If you're looking for a technician instead of a mechanic, this is the trusted place to take your Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, Rover or Jaguar. Keith Davis

These guys advertised a front bumper on their website for a Mercedes which they didn't have. They took the payment of $887.86 and have not supplied the part or returned the money. I would advise not to deal with them and find another supplier.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO THIS PLACE!!!! THIS PLACE IS A RIP OFF! My car was at his shop for over a month for a rebuilt transmission $2500.Only to drive it for 3 days and transmission fluid was pouring out of it like water. I took it back and a week later he tells me the frame is messed up and needs repair and the frame isn't under warranty. So, another $275 only because I refused to pay the full cost. I've had my car for two weeks since being in the shop and I notice transmission fluid leaking again. That shop is a joke and a rip off. I'm contacting the BBB and sueing for the cost of repairs to fix what he did plus what I paid him to repair my transmission. Flee from that place!

I took my car in to have work done on the motor they kept the car for over 2 weeks did not fix the problem and messed up the transmission when they pulled the motor .I would never give this place a thought.
