Sunnyvale Auto Repair

Matthew (the owner) is a rush-rush guy, but did take time to explain up-front what he thought should be done. His process struck me as thought-out and complete. His follow- up communication on the phone was excellent. After the repair was completed he explained exactly what he did and why. I will be going back if/when I need more auto work done.

Actually, I bought a car from Matthew and was very impressed with the operation. The shop is very clean, well equipped and professional. I came from out of state to pick up this can and Matthew was very honest, courteous and pleasant to deal with.

My Subaru was pulling to the right very badly. The dealership wanted to fix it but they had no game plan on how so they were going to experiment at my expense. A friend recommended Matt(Sunnyvale Foreign Car) so I gave him a shot. Not only did he know right where to go to fix the problem(CV joints, my previous mechanic had installed the incorrect ones), he got the parts and fixed it while I waited. Matt's great, the shop's spotless, and you can pet his dog while you wait.

I was having problems with the transmission on my 7-series BMW and since I was near the dealership, stopped there. They told me I needed a new transmission. I called Matt and he told me to bring him the car before I made any decisions. They discovered it was the traction control switch on the dash board. I had accidentally activated it. I was quite embarrased, but Sunnyvale Foreign Car Service saved me thousands of dollars. Thank You Matt

Matthew is the greatest but has the annoying habit of marching the customer all over the shop to find every bit and piece that was removed during service or repair. My wife was late for work one morning as Matthew insisted on lecturing her on the state of warped brake discs and inflexible fuel injector O-rings (my wife's mechanical knowledge is limited to the identication of basic car elements - tires, steering wheel, etc. I once had to walk behind the shop so that Matthew could dig through the trash to find my old timing belt. Anyway, this is the best shop I've ever found.
