Where is Valley European Auto Service located?

What makes your shop different from a general repair shop?
We specialize exclusively in European vehicles. That means our technicians, our tools, our parts sourcing, and our diagnostic processes are all built around the specific makes we service.
What vehicles do you service?
We specialize in makes including Porsche, BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover, Range Rover, Volvo, Mini, Fiat, Ferrari, and Lamborghini. Don’t see your vehicle listed? Give us a call, we’re happy to talk through whether we’re the right fit.
Do I need an appointment, or do you accept walk-ins?
Appointments are recommended to make sure we can dedicate the right time and technician to your vehicle. We’ll do our best to accommodate walk-ins when availability allows, but calling ahead is the best way to guarantee a spot and minimize your wait.
Do you use OEM or aftermarket parts?
We use high-quality OEM and OEM-equivalent parts that meet or exceed manufacturer specifications. European vehicles are engineered to tight tolerances, and the parts we use reflect that.
Do you offer a warranty on your repairs?
Yes. We offer a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty for peace of mind. Warranty details may vary by service so feel free to ask our team for specifics.
I just bought a used European vehicle. What should I do first?
A pre-purchase or post-purchase inspection is one of the smartest things a second owner can do. European vehicles can have maintenance gaps or deferred service from previous ownership that aren’t obvious on the surface. We’ll give you a clear picture of where your car stands, what’s been done, and what to prioritize.
Can I bring in my own parts?
We do not install customer-supplied parts. We stand behind our repairs with a 3-year/36,000-mile nationwide warranty, and in order to honor that warranty, all parts must be sourced and installed by our shop.
Do you offer a complimentary shuttle?
Yes. If you need to drop your car off and get back to your day, we offer a complimentary local shuttle. Just let us know when you book your appointment, and we’ll make sure it’s arranged.
Do you offer financing options?
We offer Buy Now, Pay Later financing for those who qualify. Ask us about it when you call or come in.
