So far my experience with Castro has been great. I am always nervous to try a new shop but after being referred by my main shop to do my rod-bearing service I have been very happy with the suggestions and knowledge of my E46 M3 platform. I foresee myself coming to Castro a lot more to help for track preparation and other servicing! -Cameron, E46 M3

I brought my red E36 here on a few occasions and every time the service was quick and exceptional. I got an oil change, a power steering leak/hose replacement, an alignment and tire rotation all in 2 visits and my car has been kicking ever since! The pricing is more than fair for the nature and age of the vehicles they work on, and I plan on bringing my car here every time. Thank you Chris and the guys, your work is appreciated!

The Homie Chris hooked it up!!! I was late, THREE times!! I knew it was a longshot but asked for him to hook me up and take care of my car so I had it for tonight where I was going. He made it happen, the car is in the shop as we speak, I haven't even seen it completed but I don't doubt a single bit of his ability to handle my G30 b58. Thank you so much Chris and the boys, you guys are awesome... Thanks for working on a holiday and taking care of me... Your generosity will not be forgotten and I promise you I will take care of you guys in one way shape or form and will highly highly recommend

My '91 325ic BWM has been serviced by Chris and Alex several times for some different items, and each time they were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Over these last couple of years, other local places had been unable to service/fix what was needed. Not only Chris & Alex know what they are talking about, they are extremely helpful, very reasonably priced, and on time. They have very good work ethics that have fully earned my trust! It's both rare and reassuring to find such quality of service in the automotive world and I couldn't recommend them more highly! Thank you again

I brought my 99 BMW m3 to Castro back some 6 years ago, based off an internet forum recommendation. Best decision Ive ever made. Chris and the guys not only took care of that car going above and beyond what I requested at no additional charge, only because they want happy customers. They cut no corners. Since that original car I have had Chris and the guys work on and build me 5 other cars including my wife's van and her fun car Ford Focus Rs. My truck, Corvette and every car i've owned since. They really do it all. I have recommended almost all my work colleagues and several had major

I have a 1995 bmw 5 series which about a year ago i was getting ready to turn the car in to the city. It was problem after the other. Mechanics were telling me to junk the car. A friend told me about Castro Motorsport and here I am today with the same car up and running with no problem. This whole year the only thing I have done is regular oil and maintenance. I wouldn't trust anyone else to take care of my cars. I religiously go to Castro's for any car maintenance or repair. The owner Is very professional and knowledgeable. Any question I ask he answers right away and he is very honest

I took my 325i which was auto with a rebuilt head and a complete 2.7eta with manual transmission to be 2.7i manual swap. Not only did it take him a year+ to finish but he charged me almost 3 times the price quoted. When I went to take the car home I had to be told to get off the freeway because my wheel only had 2 threads holding it on. After breaking in the engine driving under 3,500 rpm for 100 miles I took it up to 5k and the engine blew so called bending valves. I paid for a list of new parts and got used parts. And when he said he would give me a new engine for a "core trade" all

Chris and his team work quickly, price things fairly, and have gone beyond what is required.
I have brought my car there three times:
1. Brought in my E46 M3 for a PPI, after I bought it (a confirmation PPI, I guess). They told me what was good, what was bad, and what to keep an eye on. They aren't pushy, which I really like.
2. Brought the car back for the full subframe reinforcement, all rear bushings, RTABs. They had the work done in 2 days. I brought the car here because I know they have experience with high-performance projects, so they understand these mods, and the importance of

Came here a few months back for a valve adjustment, not only did he use the original valve cover gasket, they never fully bolted down the cover properly. This caused oil to flow out and get all over the engine, plus the valve job they did sounded horrible, instead of going back I was lucky enough to find someone who did a great job for half the price, and months later I am no longer leaking oil or burning through oil as fast. Thanks castor for the poor job.

My Father is from out of town and needed a timing belt on his car. Mind you he was a mechanic for 27 years. So this guy answers and quotes my dad a price. We get there and some other guy is insistent that 'we need to also do this and that". The typical mechanic salespitch. He doesn't know that my dad was a mechanic way before this guy even knew what the business was. Needless to say we left. On the way out one of the employees actually apologized to us and it turned out this 'chris' we were talking to was actually the owner, which made it worse. Very rude and typical mechanic type of scammer. I

Had gotten quotes from other shops in the area and all the other shops had told me had different problems. the car was over heating and would hesitate at high rpm.some guy wanted to change the radiator and water pump and in idle air control valve and it was guna be expensive. great service friendly people family operated fix my problem in no time it was just a vacuum leak and my thermostat saved me lots of time and money.
