I rely on Randy and Matt at Ronin to take the best care of my 2003 Mini Cooper S. The service is outstanding, friendly, efficient, and on time. They make me feel confident in all their repairs. Estimates are better than other places I’ve gone. Definitely worth the drive! I know my Mini is in Good Hands! Pleasant waiting room and Keurig Coffee too! Thank you guys!😊

I have a 2014 MINI Countryman. I tried to get a estimate from another local shop and the owner totally blew me off and told me come back in a week, he was too busy. I messaged Ronin Autowerks and got a reply the next day from Randy. I took my car in for a timing chain tensioner/guides as preventative maintenance. I talked to Randy and he explained my year doesn't have the same problems as the older MINI's and I dont need it replaced.I still got a oil change since I was there, but who does that? A honest shop that has earned my business, that's who. I will need work in the future

This is real simple. They gave me the run around, charged 4X as much as the quote. Then did not fix the car correctly! Also, I believe the positive reviews are FAKE!

Matt and Randy are the most honest BMW and for that matter any repair shop I have worked with for my other vehicles.
My main problem was the A/C not working.
I took my 1987 BMW L6 to 3 independent repair services 'specializing' in older BMW's and a BMW dealer who wanted $2500+ for a compressor( you can buy a new OEM for 300+- on the web).
Another well known BMW specialist wanted to charge $5000 to fix the a/c. None of these fools had a clue what was wrong with the a/c. By the way the compressor was fine.
Matt diagnosed and found the problem and we replaced the part at minimum cost. The A/C

Nothing but great things to say about this shop. Very clean, professional. Excellent customer service, had I first known about this shop I would have never taken my vehicle to a Vw dealer. They fixed my car and walked me through the process. Thank you Nick, Sam and Randy for the excellent job.

Randy and Nick provided an excellent customer experience! They exceeded my expectations from a service and cost perspective. Randy was extremely helpful and guided me through repairs process. Not only was my daughter's vehicle fixed but they went the extra mile in waiting around to get the job done right. A great team and wonderful environment. Thanks Nick and Randy!

Ronin Autowerks always delivers! Great service adviser Nick, is always on point and letting you know how your car is doing. Just took my car in and something unexpectedly happened and I had to go back. They took care of the car rental and re-diagnosed the car and got it running on all cylinders.

I was frustrated with Long Beach BMW giving me the runaround on my 2011 328i that I had purchased from them last November. So many codes popping up and not a single straightforward answer. So I looked up local BMW mechanics and Ronin popped right up. I called and Nick was more than happy to help me out. He made time for me to come in same day right around closing time, checked out my car, and explained everything to me without trying to make me get the car serviced by them.

I can tell that they really care for their customers, and truly care about the vehicles as well. I highly recommend coming

I've had three cars that I've owned exclusively serviced with Ronin, and I wouldn't take them anywhere else!
In fact, I tried... I took my it to Crevier Mini for a recall, and while it was there, they told me that I had $4500 of other servicing that needed fixing immediately.
To cut a long story short, I got my car back from Crevier and took it down to Nick at Ronin. A day later I had my car back - and it was less than half the price of what Crevier tried charging me!

Do yourself a favor, keep peace of mind with your car, and take it to Nick at Ronin.

I have 2004 525i that I have been taking to Matt and his crew for the last 8 years. They have always been honest about what fixes are needs vs nice to haves that can wait. The pricing is reasonable and worth the value.

For the most all of 2017 my car was non-operational. I decided to get it operational again but have been having problems. I took it in and got the same level of service as always and even better now with text updates and reminders.

Also, if you have headlights that need to be fully restored, definitely go to them!! They did an amazing job on my thrashed lights.

I'll keep

Matt and his crew's reputation is very well deserved. Their shop resembles a small OEM factory floor, with vintage cars in various stages of restoration. I had my girlfriend's 1976 2002 expertly rebuilt there about a year ago - and from that experience came back for routine maintenance on my 2000 M Coupe. With Nick's expressive help, they got an immediate handle on what the car really needed. They also detected a few troublesome leaks and recommended prudent fixes. I was perpetually updated with convenient texts and phone calls. Enrique their technician worked extra on a Saturday

I was in a pinch, having had previous work done at a mechanic out of the area, and apparently the rattling noise I heard from inside the vehicle was the suspension block losing it's bolts, tying it into the frame (I hadn't reviewed that place yet, but I think I should simply be honest after this most recent situation). This particular situation could have caused severe damage to the frame, if not hurt myself or someone else very seriously due to the negligence.

I called two other places, one had a tech that was out for the day, and the other (I drove there before I called) didn&apos

They always get me in within a day and take their time fixing what needs to be fixed. I am very happy with the work that I get done on my car here I will never go anywhere else. The prices are very fair compared to a dealership they are very trustworthy and I am confident that they always do the best job

An honest garage. Matt is very friendly and knowledgeable about BMW's. Learned if you go through him to purchase your Tire Rack tires, you save shipping. He has a high end Snap-on wheel balancer also. Will get my new tires installed on all my cars here.

I just wanted to let everyone know that the search is over for finding an honest and reliable mechanic. I have found someone that I can trust, it's hard to find someone like that. I have brought all my cars to this shop, the owner Matt Rose is honest, courteous, and just a cool guy. Thanks again, I hope this helps someone out there.
