I went to leave the house and take my kids to school and my car was dead. It had to be jumped every time I got in it. A friend recommended this business so I brought it in for them to take a look at it. They did a very thorough inspection of my van, which I was very impressed by. They didn’t just look at the battery, they made sure there were no other problems. They also stayed in contact with me every step of the way. When they identified the problem, they let me know right away and gave a price break down. They also told me what else would need to be fixed and gave me a price break down of that in order of what needed to be done first. I was never pressured into fixing anything I didn’t want to fix. I was also given another car to drive while they fixed my car. This removed a lot of stress of worrying about how I was going to get my kids to and from school. Overall, I had a great experience and was very happy with process. My van was fixed and I’ve had zero issues. I highly recommend this business!!
Mike and the team are excellent, trustworthy mechanics. I brought my Benz to them and now they take care of my BMW 535i GT. Courteous, on time, professional, honest feedback. I’ve been burned by other high end mechanics-shops in the past. These guys are a breath of fresh air!!
I found Kinetech after moving to Charlotte earlier this year. I have used them twice so far for my 2007 BMW 3-Series and think very highly of them. They are knowledgeable, honest, and reasonably priced. I am thankful I found a quality mechanic for my car, and not too far from my home either.
What a great experience. Honest assessment and communication throughout, superior to the BMW dealer. Will not hesitate to use them again.
One of the best shops Ive been to in the NC region...treated me with courtesy and respect with lightning fast service...Will be back again with my other cars...Thank you!
Kinetech Motor Werkes correctly diagnosed all the issues with my 2008 528i BMW and fixed them accurately and cost-effectively. Michael, my point of contact, was very polite and professional.
Very close to our house and professional work. They services all vehicles now, too. Fixed a broken tailgate and was transparent about the cost throughout the process. Sometimes it can take a bit longer than I would expect but they are expanding and adding more techs and a bigger garage.
Kinetech Motor Werkes saves me almost 1k on a DPF job that normally cost close to 5K at the BMW dealership. Kinetech has great service and at a great price. I most definitely will be getting my BMW X5 serviced here for now on. Thanks Kinetech Motor Werkes!
Sal and his team do great work!!
They are great.. they do the work when they say they will do it and for what they say they will do it for, no gimmicks. Their prices are way lower than the dealer and their communication is excellent. I highly recommend them.
Sal and team are fantastic. I’ve owned BMWs (3) and have always had issues once they hit a certain mileage. Sal was a recommendation from a friend and while I tend to be very wary of auto repair alternatives (from the dealership), Sal is the exception. Every time I visit, Sal teaches me something new to consider about my car. But most importantly, Sal has a genuine interest in developing relationships with his clientele and looking out for their best interests. Sal went out of his way and dug into warranties / looked up past history (outside of his service) to see if there were any considerations to my vehicle—and saved me a ton of money. I’ve had some rough experiences where I’ve had cars under warranty (in this case a Toyota) where I simply traveled out of region and did an oil change and tune up; they (Toyota of New Bern) charged me without looking into the history - I paid for a Toyota Cares package that they simply didn’t look up. Sal is the real deal—I genuinely will go to him to fix all cars and likely seek his advice on my next vehicle. I live in Morehead City and am willing to drive 300 miles just to fix my car with Sal. When you finally find a good / great mechanic who you trust—you do not let him go.
I have nothing but positive feedback for Kinetech. Sal is super knowledgeable and patient in explaining issues to less than mechanically inclined individuals, such as myself. The work was completed in a timely manner, for an incredibly reasonable price, and to say Im thrilled is an understatement. I wouldnt take my car anywhere else.
I heard about Kinetech awhile ago and then again when I joined the Mini group on FB. Many of the owners in the area was recommending then. My Cooper started having issues and I decided to give them a try. I received a call promptly to inquire about my car and the issues I was having. I dropped my car and received a very detailed report about what they found. They discussed the findings and corrected them in a timely manner. The recommended some other minor changes. I felt their prices were reasonable. I received quality work and my Cooper once again is running perfectly. I will definitely use them again! Thanks Sal and the Kinetech Family!
Kinetech and the entire team is one of a kind, they truly care about your car when you bring it in and will ensure you are satisfied with the outcome. So happy to have been recommend by other Mini Owners!
VW beetle would start and not keep running. The team at Kinetech found the problem, recommended a fix and completed the job. The work was professional and reasonable to complete. They also took the time to check and recommend additional future repairs that needed my attention and the cost for repair. Professional team doing professional work. I recommend them to all my associates.
I took my MINI to Kinetech Motor Werkes for the first time. I worked with Sal and the service was great. Very happy customer and very happy MINI! Bonus is Sal’s got a good sense of humor!
Wow! What a great experience. Very friendly and welcoming team. Reasonable prices. The staff takes extra care to ensure you are happy with the service. They are #1 in customer service. I will definitely be returning again if I need any more work done on my car.
Sal and his team do some honest and thorough work. I asked to have my oil feed line and oil filter housing/cooling gaskets replaced on my 2009 mini cooper s and once they got the parts they made short work of getting it all in and replaced, while also letting me know anything else they could do in the future to ensure my car runs the best that it can. 10 out of 10 will be back.
Wonderful work on my mini coupe. Professional services. Wonderful attitudes and personalitys.Took mini coup in for an oil change. As always Sal did a wonderful job. So impressed with the service that I gave out his business card to another mini coup owner who was taking hers to a dealership. Wasnt happy about the dealership service. Shes excited about meeting up with Sal. I know she will not be disappointed.
The issues that I was having with my Mini was evaluated, analyzed and rectified by the expert team much to my satisfaction
First I took my 2010 BMW M3 to Sal, he diagnose what was wrong with and fixed it in no time! My BMW runs like a champ! Then I took my Mercedes E350 and the same results! In my opinion Sal is very professional, knows what he is doing and the team that works with him does a great job in getting the job done! I’m supper satisfied with the service!
Kinetech, the best around hands down. After passing out from the costs Hendrick BMW wanted to fix my X5 I found Sal and his company through my own research. Before committing to bring my X5 to Sal I called him to learn more about his company and his background. Needless to say Sal and all workers are BMW subject matter experts and a couple of them worked directly in the BMW plant in SC. I cant say enough about Sal and Kinetech and would highly recommend them. We all know that BMWs can be costly to fix but Sal is reasonable and very honest. I believe it is important to pass on the good to help people. I will be a return customer!-George Shorac
I have brought my Mini Cooper to Sal and his team twice now and I must admit I am blown away with their expertise, professionalism and value of diagnostics to repair costs. Sal has earned my respect and trust, looking forward to many years of dedicated service from Sal and his team.
Recommended to me through another mechanic. They are great communicators. They know customer service meaning. You know ahead of time whats wrong and the cost. No hidden charges. Car was washed and all cleaned up inside and out when picked up. Nicest staff also. All fixed..all clean and great place to deal with. THANK YOU!!!!
Highly Recommended! Sal, Holly and team are top notch. I have had a couple of repairs performed at Kinetech, since last year, and have been pleased with the care and attention to detail provided. Not only was the customer service excellent, but the overall experience and cost was reasonable. Will definitely bring my BMW back and know it is in good hands.
Sal does an excellent job with my BMW 550i. Hes very diligent in explaining what the problem is, and makes sure I fully understand! Good people over there!
Sal and staff have been nothing but honest and upfront about all repairs. They also check out your car and rate the severity of each problem. This allows you to choose to create a timeline and fit all the repairs into your budget.I had one issue that another repair shop recommended repairing in a certain manner. Sal got to the root of the problem and it ended up being a common sense and simple repair. This saved me a substantial amount of money and allowed me to do some other recommended work that was needed.First Class Auto Repair!Richard McDanel
I’ve used them for at least 6 years now. They are former BMW techs who decided they wanted to do the quality work and not rip off customers. All the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I won’t take my 1995 325i anywhere else. Barbara is great, Sal is the nicest most honest mechanic I’ve ever met and they hired someone new recently as a service advisor and she seems all aces too. Your foreign car wants you here. Can’t you hear it whispering to you? If we build it, they will come to Kinetech. Haha. In all seriousness . Stop reading and get your car in there already :)
Sal has always been the best at taking care of my mini, honest & trustworthy. Excellent service. Even calls after to make sure your car is perfect! I couldn’t imagine anyone else working on my car! He is truly the best of the best
Great shop! Really knowledgeable staff that will always take care of you the way you would take care of your self. Very fair prices. If you have a mini, bmw, or any European car for that matter, this is the only shop you should take your car to. I am an enthusiast that usually does his own work, but if I can’t do it my self these are the only guys I take it to. Sal is great and holly was always on top of keeping me in the loop. 10/10 would come back again.
I highly recommend Sal and his team for your MINI service. I have been taking my 2012 MINI Cooper hardtop to Kinetech for over 5 years beginning when I needed to replace the thermostat. They have certified technicians who have experience MINI and BMW dealer service departments. Their pricing is much less than what dealer repair departments charge and the service is exceptional. I was able to schedule my service in one day when a check engine light illuminated. The checked out all systems an determined that there was an electrical sensor that needed replacement. While there I also had my front brake rotors and pads replaced. This vehicle gets serviced twice per year and is in excellent condition. I am pleased that I have a trusted mechanic in Kinetech.
Okay lets speak truth and clear a few things first I read a review early in the month it said that these guys were prejudice or they didnt like people of other colors please hear me when I say these guys are not prejudiced at all I am a black female that has always had excellent service through these guys best thats with my vehicle and myself please dont underestimate these guys they are awesome..I highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you Sal you are appreciated
Awesome experiences! Take time with your vehicle to make sure it’s right the first time. Need to share how they saved me over $18,000 on service work that Hendricks BMW on Independence stated I needed and Honest 1 on Monroe Rd. concurred after I shared Hendrick assessment. They never looked beyond our conversation after that. Their assessment made me buy another car $45,000. Both were wrong, two years later vehicle still running with no problems, no thanks to Hendrick and Honest 1 Auto Care. Kinetech bill not sure but $250?Thx. Guys!!!
Sal is always friendly, kind and knowledgeable about my BMWx1. I like going to Kinetech even though it is a 30 min drive. I feel I am in good hands. Thank you for your great service! Judy Lickert
As always, Sal diagnosed and repaired my BMW quickly and at a fair price. Satisfied once again.
After 3 other repair shops couldnt diagnose & repair the problem with our 08 Dodge Chargers fuel system that caused the check engine to repeatedly to come on, the technicians @ Kinetech solved the problem & fixed it for us! They asked us about the symptoms we were experiencing, and with some hard work they got our car up & running smoothly. Really great people to work with. They earned my continued business!!
Sal and the group at Kinetech were great to work with. They were able to get me in the same day for a dead battery problem. This was my third service visit. I remain impressed by the commitment and quality work performed. I Highly recommend them! Thank you once again.
I had to use Kinetech for some additional work on my mini. They did such a fantastic job on previous work it was a no brainer to use them again.They are nothing but professional, explain what needs to be done vs what could wait. They will always be my shop.
Sal and his team have done multiple repairs on our Mercedes sedan. He is responsive and straight forward on addressing repairs and cost. Work is always done efficiently with regular updates on progress. This is a great shop if you own a German import.
There is no other shop Im willing to go to at this point. The team at Kinetech is amazing and have provided an amazing experience, plus a very timely turn around to get me back on the road! Thanks Guys for everything.
I’ve never had a bad experience at this place! They are very knowledgeable on my car and answer any/all questions I have. Their process is super smooth, allowing you to approve/deny any/all recommended fixes- prices and pictures are included which is extremely helpful. I’ll continue to take my car to Kinetech.
Very professional and Sal is awesome! Finally someone who does car repairs you can trust..
The staff were really nice and generous. Very helpful and they didnt cut any corners. Told me all the specs that I needed to know, they are very detailed with their work as well.
Sal does a great job and I trust him with any of my vehicle. Highly recommend to anyone.
My experience at Kintech was great. I felt so good that I found people that was honest and very knowledgeable. Very educational for me because, they will take you out and show you the problem with your car. I will be going back!!
Everyone was very friendly, fast and efficient. I dropped my car off the night before to have the a/c blower motor fixed and picked it up the next afternoon. Also, I have had this repair one other time and the people at Kinetech fixed it at a much better cost to me.
Sal was great to work with concerning my 2007 Mini Cooper S. I came to him on a recommendation from another mechanic. Turns out he had serviced my Mini when with Hendrix. He quickly diagnosed my issues and provided a detailed quote. After getting into the mechanical part he discovered an additional issue that was quickly diagnosed. I would highly recommend Kinetech Motor Werkes if you own a Mini and are tired of the Dealership shuffle. Sal & Tim have earned my trust and business.
Great experience I thought. I paid over 6000k with this group. I feel they only put an bandage on his work. When I returned they did not agree toCorrect the issue.Let me be clear if you take any car other than. BMW you can forget it because they have no knowledge but will lie and pretend. Very disappointing.
Kinetech repaired my 05 Mini Cooper S. The guys at the shop went out of their way to meet me after hours since I was towing my car from a couple hour away.They were always prompt communicators and I never felt in the dark with the repairs or the status.I really valued their expertise with Mini and when I picked the car up, was very happy with the quality of the repairs.Definitely recommend.
I’ve been bringing my Mini here since I moved to the Charlotte area. Sal and his team are incredibly knowledgeable and I trust them 100%. As a woman, it’s hard to find honest mechanics. I’ve been plenty of other places and gotten the runaround and ripped off. It’s exhausting. I never have to worry about the integrity or quality of work done here at Kinetech. For that, I’m grateful.
Sal did a great job on my Mini once again. Extremely thorough and with a dedicated attention to detail.Thanks Sal.
Kinetech Motor Werkes is truly one of the best automotive service shops in the area! As someone who has been dealing in luxury automobiles for over 2 decades, Ive dealt with many of the shops including the franchised dealers for our service and repair needs. These guys are extremely knowledgeable and more importantly trustworthy! The diagnostics and quotes are very accurate and reasonable. Above all the delivery is always on time and as promised! Next time youre in need of service for your vehicle, reach out to KMW and I promise you wont be disappointed and more than likely will become a regular!
2nd time bringing our BMW to Kinetech, will only bring our cars here for service going forward. Great to work with! Friendly, knowledgeable and reasonable with their pricing! Highly recommend Sal and crew
This was my first time at Kinetech and Sal and Hollie were great. Service was excellent and price was reasonable. Sal took his time and didn’t trying to upsell me on unnecessary work.
I won’t take my BMW 750 anywhere else but Kinetech Motor Werkes. They have the best service. The staff is very polite and informative. If you need anything fixed on your car take it to Kinetech Motor Werkes. They’re the best!
Sal and his team are great! From the moment I called to set up an appointment, I knew I was going to like these guys!This is my first MINI and I was worried about going into the shop, since I have no idea about German cars. Sal was able to dumb it down for me (my words not his).He spent extra time explaining what needed to be fixed, what it would take and a few of the BMW/MINI quirks.I look forward to working with them again soon.
Sal & Holly are great and accommodating. They took care of both of our cars quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Kinetech to all BMW owners.
Great work on my BMW X5 & friendly.Trust is a must have when it comes to a mechanic & Sal is the best!
Sal and his team are awesome. This is the place to take your Mini if you need anything done right the first time. I would 100% recommend these guys over any other Mini shop in Charlotte. They are very understanding and very knowledgeable. I greatly appreciate everything theyve done for me and my Mini Cooper.
Great customer service and prices. Very trustworthy. Highly recommended
The principle owner Sal and his staff, provide excellent service,at a reasonably price, while making you feel lice a valued customer.Roger P.
I have been a MINI customer since 2008. Coincidentally I have known the guys at Kinetech just as long. They give me honest estimates and prompt service. I can share with great confidence that I can rely on Kinetech Motor Werkes to take excellent care of myself and all my friends and family that I send their way for my automotive service and repair needs.
As always, work was performed properly and on time. Sal and his entire staff take pride in doing things right, attending to every detail, at a fair price. Thank you again!
Kinetech was recommended to me by a friend so I carried my Mini in for repair. They gave me step by step instructions for what they were looking for and what they found and then a detailed report on correcting my problem. I have already recommend them to more of my friends.
I love the quality of work that is provided me whenever I go to Kinetech Werkes. Will keep going there as long as they are in business.
Sal and Tim were great with my daughters VW Beetle. They kept us informed of what was going on and worked hard to find a problem that had been plaguing us for 10 months and 3 other mechanics. They were extremely reasonable in their charges. My favorite part about them is that they did not just shake their heads and tell me they didnt know, they researched, called other places and kept at it till we finally had a diagnosis. I would highly recommend using them!
I am so happy that l found this place. If only the other busineses l deal with could this accomadating, the world would be a better place. You get updates before every task is performed on your car. They look for the cause of the problem so your car can be fixed correctly, the first time. And that is a wonderful feeling knowing that you dont have to bring it back for the same problem, again. Thank you for doing it right the first time.
An excellent and knowledgeable auto repair and maintenance company. Coupled with terrific customer service and fair pricing.
I love love the team at Kinetech. They are fantastic. I always feel safe that they are going to fix, take care of my car, and not steer me to unnecessary repairs. They even wash my car while they have it. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.
Awesome friendly place, the folks there really know their stuff. Very courteous and professional. Highly recommended. Very satisfied
Love Sal and his staff! Great work and best prices for repairs on my BMW which can be very expensive. I would recommend Kinetech if you need car repairs.
Phenomenal! I had my Mini Cooper S worked on and customized by Tim and Sal with Kinetech Motor Werkes when I lived in NC. They are very professional and really know their way around German cars! Now living in South Florida, my Coopers engine blew a piston and I knew I could count on their team to find me the right short block (and a few extra internals) at the right price and get it to me without any hassle. I would absolutely recommend anyone looking for a team of mechanics to do any work on their German vehicle, CALL TIM AND SAL! My Mini Cooper S is back on the road stronger than ever and its all due to this genuine team :)
The guys at Kinetech repaired my BMW X3 in the time promised and for the amount quoted.The cost was less than it would been at the dealer. A positive experience.
Kinetech Motor werkes does fantastic work, I have 100% confidence and comfort with them taking care of my car. Highly recommend!
These guys are fantastic. Being a woman i have always been nervous when taking my car to the mechanic. Sal and crew have made me feel safe. They take great care of my car. Repairs are always done well. I would not take my anywhere else, including the dealer.
This is the only mechanic I will go to and that I trust. Sal and Tim are some of the nicest, most honest guys I have ever met. I know that when I go there I am getting the complete truth about my car and that they have my best interest at heart above just trying to make as much money as possible. I trust them completely and they give me hope that there are still good businessmen out there. I always know I am not going to be paying superfluous fees and costs because their prices cannot be beat. Plus they are family men and super friendly and fun to talk to and their good hearted nature shows from the first time you meet them. Dont go anywhere else! Even if you dont live nearby its worth the commute.
Sal and his crew always does a great job!! Highly recommend.
They were courteous and professional. The work was done right by a certified mini mechanic. I am satisfied with the work and prices were very reasonable. Thanks for a job well done.
I am totally not a person that writes reviews, in fact I can not remember the last time that I have. But after my recent experience with Sal and Luke at Kinetech I am compelled too. I can honestly say that it was the absolute best experience that I have ever had at an auto shop. I was referred to Kinetech by a co-worker, and Im so grateful. These guys totally put me at ease from the time I first walked through the door. They are great about explaining the problem, the cause of the problem, and the solution to the problem. I didnt get that tense/uneasy feeling that you get walking into the dealership, waiting to hear the pending horrible news of your cars condition and the a la carte list of repairs deemed necessary by the Service Coordinator. I will continue to take my Cooper to Sal for maintenance and upgrades. I highly recommend Kinetech Motor Werkes, as I feel they are Stand -Up Guys.
Everyone Here is Super Amazing and They Are Super Helpful They Do Everything To Make Sure There Customers Are Happy And Safe They Made Sure they Found a way to help Me Save As Much As possible Which Means They Are Super Affordable, I Love Everybody At Kinetech Motor Werkes They Are Awesome.
Sal and his team really care about everyone that enters the door there. Honest mechanics are far and few between, I would recommend them to anyone with a vehicle!
Sal and Tim are the best! Honest and determined. Our JCW was a challenge but this team would not quit. Very reasonable prices and genuine concern for the customer. Our car will never go to another shop for service!
Unicorns, Santa Claus, and honest mechanics...I trust Sal. He did me a solid on parts, he knows his trade, and along with the office staff, he provided an all-around excellent experience. I highly recommend Kinetech Motor Werkes.
Sal and his team are always great people to do business with. They never try to sell you anything you don’t need, are extremely honest and their prices are always fair.
Highly experiencedpeople orientedQuality WorkI would recommend anyone needing foreign car repairs 🙂
Professional yet courteous. Helpful and not in it to drain your pockets, just fix up your car and fix it up right. Good quality and honest work. I will be a repeat customer and would recommend them.
Mike went above and beyond my expectations.
KME was amazing to put it in short. The girls up front were awesome and make you feel great for being there. Willing to talk to you about things car related pr not. Sal and the other mechanic (forgot his name) were great as well. Sals knowledge on things really blew me away. Most mechanics, and especially dealerships, just give you an overview answer when you have questions. Sal was willing to fully answer any question I had AND explain why something is the way it is. Going deep into detail. Ive always been a big believer in and educated customer is the best customer and Sal was sure to help me understand things I didnt know, so that I could properly take car of my BMW as well as know what I need to watch for and what Ill need to service soon. I also loved that I was able to get a real quote on parts Ill soon need. Every place ive been before, the quote expires in 30 days or they just cant give a quote at all. This definitely helps when planning finances for sure! Heck, Id love to work for these guys!! Truly a great place and for sure will be back to ensure my car stays running strong, for very long.
Great people who are very knowledgeable.Highly recommend.
Never had a problem or complaint regarding repair. Sasl is honest and dependable.
Kinetech Motor Werkes and its owner Sal are a great destination for EuroCar repairs. Always very clear on the required repairs, providing complete information. Pricing is reasonable and competitive and service is quick and efficient.After multiple experiences with Sal and the team, I can easily recommend KMW. Thanks!
Weve had several repairs done at Kinetech. Both Sal & Tim are great to work with. Great communication and wonderful service. They worked on my sons 08 VW Jetta Turbo. I highly recommend giving them a call. They have reasonable pricing as well.
Sal, Tim and James are top notch. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Wont take my Mini anywhere else. Referred a few friends here and they were impressed too.
Knowledgeable staff. Always willing to go the extra mile to make customer experience world class. BMW and MINI Experts.
First rate technicians, reasonable costs, clearly explain and show exactly what they are doing and what their inspections found.Highly recommended.
I bring several vehicles over for routine maintenance and custom workOutstanding people and workAlways a pleasure!!!
Great service and some very good service information about our vehicles
Consistently great service. Kinetech is prompt, knowledgeable, and trustworthy.
