Tony & Staff are excellent Master Technicians! Perform quality repairs at a very fair prices and have great Integrity. While they have a focus on BMW’s & Mercedes, these guys are so talented they work on most any vehicle.I am the son of a former BMW dealer and would only have all of my BMW repairs performed at BMW dealerships since 1983. Once I found out Tony left the BMW dealership to start his own shop, I have used him for all my service needs. I would not hesitate to recommend Tony for all of your service needs!Thanks To Driven SD!Mike

This place is hands down the best BMW Mechanics that youll find anywhere. Me and my pops had a headlight issue with my new BMW and they have constantly went above and beyond to help us. Theyre very informative and knowledgeable, you can tell that they both used to work in the service department at a BMW dealership and ventured out on their own to start their own business and good for them, they give you exemplary service, are ultra kind, and will put in the effort to make sure that you leave happy! These are good people, and its hard to find good people these days. Especially the type who do great work and know what theyre doing. If you have a BMW and need your car fixed in any kind of way (ours was electrical) then this is the place, trust me, look no further.

Bought a BMW recently and unfortunately the car has a few to many imperfections. After talking to and comparing several San Diego based service departments, I ended up taking my business here. Very happy about my choice - reasonable, but most importantly decent, honest and competent mechanics.

DrivenSD surpassed my expectations. Seamless transition from having car towed to site until repairs were completed. All done in a matter of two days including a holiday! Half the price of the BMW dealership, generally were my repairs were done. Car drives great!!! Thank you to those from previous reviews is how my wife and I discovered Driven SD!

Brought my 2018 430i for Tony to look at for a wiring issue that I had previously taken to the dealership to get diagnosed. He was very honest and reassured me that it should be an easy fix. He repaired my vehicle fast and gave me an exceptionally better price than the dealership! Less than half the price the dealership quoted me! Honestly so happy to say that I have somewhere I can trust to service my car now!

I have been going to Tony for close to 3 years now and he has been extremely helpful and honest with all my car needs and repairs, never has he ever tried to upsell me on anything that was not necessary. He always explains in clear detail all the repairs he performs and potential problems to keep an eye out for. Just an over all great mechanic who I always recommend to anyone and everyone who has a BMW. He is usually not ever too booked up so can usually get you in pretty quickly and Im sure if you have an emergency he can get you in sooner. Honestly I cant say enough good things about his shop, you just need to come and experience his service for yourself. Such great service I am considering buying only BMW cars from here on out just because I know Tony will have me covered on my car maintenance and repairs lol.

Need your BMW serviced? Check engine light on? You called the stealership for a quote and they want $250/hr for labor? Why take it to a phony when you can take it to Tony! As a BMW master mechanic he’s MORE than capable of REPAIRING your vehicle at a fraction of the stealerships cost! I brought my 430i in for my first time today for a drivetrain malfunction and got a call back in 2 hours saying he fixed my issue that El Cajon BMW wanted $3000 for!! He also works on all other makes and models, I’m dropping off my 94 Del Sol next. Don’t hesitate to bring your car to DRIVENSD new or old they got you covered!!!

Absolutely awesome! Tony was extremely knowledgeable and when he inspected my car he found something troubling, a sway bar link was missing! This is not surprising with knowing the dealer I purchased my vehicle from.Tony said it should handle much better now with the link installed and OMG there’s a HUGE difference in how the car handles. It feels a lot more secure and I feel more in control of my steering.In addition to this his prices are EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE. I brought my car in for a washer reservoir issue and the other mechanic I took my car too originally quoted me over 300 just to replace the washer. Install of the sway bar link and replacing the entire reservoir tank (edit, thanks Tony for clarifying, I couldn’t remember if it was the tubing or the whole thing ) cost me less than 300 and I couldn’t be happier.Thank you so much! I will be coming back for all of my future service needs while I’m still in San Diego! (also I rarely leave reviews so when I do it’s because I’m genuinely impressed and satisfied)

Tony is a true professional. I took my Silverado in for work and he did a great job at a fair price. He gave me a day it would be done and delivered it as promised. I thought my truck needed more work but Tony let me know I was ok. He could have easily done the work I asked for however he chose to let me know that it was not needed.Tony sets the bar high for honesty in the automotive repair industry! I would recommend Driven SD to anyone looking to get work done on their car.

Another trade referred us to Tony at DRIVENSD and we are very happy we found him! Tony cares about the customer, goes beyond the norm that you get from most shops. He follows up with great communication, prices are very fair and you can trust his workmanship. Its hard to find a mechanic you can trust and that charges reasonable rates ... this is the place!

Tony @ Driven SD is the man. He squeezed me in on a busy Friday, diagnosed the problem, and repaired my car in no time at all. I would actually give more stars if I could. Finding an honest mechanic with plenty of know how and skill isnt easy, but look no further. Thanks for fixing my ride and getting me back up and running for the weekend Tony!

If you’re looking for an honest, thorough and professional Master Technician, go to Driven SD. Although Tony specializes in BMW, he works on all brands and beats dealer prices consistently. In addition to repairs, he’s great for general maintenance work, lift kits and customizations. Stop in and see him. He’s worked on my car since he started his career almost 20 years ago.

Tony has been working professionally on BMW, Mercedes and other vehicles full-time for nearly two decades. As a Master Technician, he has the skills to address any issue and as a person he has the integrity to fix what is wrong, back up his work and do it for a fair price.
