Our Specialty
We work on Audi, BMW, Mercedes, VW, Porsche, Mini, and Volvo — every day, since 1987.
European auto repair in Denver is a different trade. The dealer's diagnostic equipment costs $24,000. The shop down the street, the one that does "everything," doesn't have it — they can't read the fault codes specific to your B8.5 platform Audi, so they swap parts until something works. We're not them.
Westside runs factory diagnostic equipment for every European make we service: VAG-COM (VCDS) for VW and Audi, BMW ISTA, Mercedes XENTRY, Porsche PIWIS, Volvo VIDA. Our techs sit through Bosch and ZF training every year. We source OE-equivalent parts from the same suppliers that build the OE-original parts (TRW, Brembo, ATE, Sachs, Mahle), so you pay 30–40% less than the dealer for parts that are functionally identical.
The 38-year track record matters most. Mark and his father Karl have been wrenching on these cars since Karl walked out of the Boulder VW dealership in 1987. There is no platform we haven't seen.

Why Westside
Four reasons we earn the second visit.
AAA Approved Auto Repair.
AAA inspects our facility, our equipment, our processes, and our customer-satisfaction scores every two years. We've held the Approved designation continuously since 1991. AAA dispatches to us from anywhere in the metro.
We show you the parts.
When we replace a worn brake rotor, the old one comes back to you in the box, in your trunk, on the seat — your choice. Nothing leaves the shop without you seeing why we replaced it.
We don't sell what you don't need.
If your dealer quoted you a $4,800 90K service, bring us the work order. We'll go through it line by line and tell you what your car actually needs at this mileage. Half the time we save customers more than $2,000.

"Audi dealer quoted me $4,800 for the 90K service on my Q5. Mark went through the list with me, told me what was actually due at 92K miles, did the work for $1,840, and showed me the receipts for every part. I'm a customer for life."

"My X3 wouldn't start on a Saturday morning. AAA dispatched it to Westside. Lisa called me back within 90 minutes with the diagnosis — a charge-pipe coupler — and a fair quote. Fixed by Monday afternoon. Best shop experience I've ever had."

"They've worked on three of my Mercedes over fourteen years. They've never sold me a job I didn't need. Diego knows the W213 better than anyone at the dealer. Tony actually called me to tell me a brake job could wait another 8,000 miles."
— Daniel R. · 2018 Mercedes E450
