I have a 2016 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid and have been taking it to the dealership for all maintenance until I found this place.
I called to schedule an appointment... read more and the owner Gerardo answered, and he quickly set up an appointment. Day one Gerardo was there to answer any questions and listened to all my concerns. Ultimately he did an oil change, replaced the water pump, new spark plugs, air filters, and brake fluid service. I saved at least 50% compared to the dealership, Gerardo was very knowledgeable and I felt comfortable leaving him with my car. I have been driving it for over 1k miles since the mentioned service and no issues. I will be coming here for all future service.

  Great experience, Gerardo explained parts needed in detail. I saved a substantial amount compared to dealership. Shop looks great too! I will be back and will recommend to my friends... read more and family.

  Many thanks to Gerardo, you done great job and excellent quality services,you're the best !!!
Highly recommend this Daniel's European
Happy thanksgiving to you Gerardo

  Great customer service,
Clean shop
Gerardo the owner is a very friendly guy And also very knowledgeable,
he personally took care of me.
I took in... read more My BMW M5 for a clutch replacement.
He went above and beyond even took me home when I dropped my car off at his shop. He kept me updated the entire time the car was there. He finished the job on time and he even suggested a couple things that might need to be worked on soon.
( most mechanics won't )
his prices are fare and I believe that if your looking for a good mechanic with high knowledge on European cars this is the place to go.
thank you! Gerardo & staff
I will see you guys soon .

  An honest mechanic and overall a good person. Very polite, courteous, and professional. I'm definitely coming back. They helped save me tens of thousands on an engine repair by thoroughly... read more inspecting a car I recently purchased.

  Great Service, very happy with repair. Daniels European went above and beyond for me and I can't reccomend them enough. I do reccomend calling to see about scheduling in advance... read more as they do get busy.

  TL:DR - You get what you pay for but here, you'll get even more. The team are auto enthusiasts and to quality work paying attention to every little detail. They... read more caught things others wouldn't have and essentially saved me over $1,000 in labor doing so. Good mechanics are everywhere, but trustworthy mechanics are not. This team you can trust whether it's your daily or your baby. All service they do is updated into carfax history as well for increased resale value.

Boy am I glad I found Gerardo and his team at Daniels European. You can tell from my review history, I've been on the hunt for a perfect Porsche Indy and I do believe I've finally found them.

Through my journey over the past few years, I've found shops that have great reviews but didn't meet the expectations. I've had shops who do good work, but only the work assigned and paying close attention to the details that could save you from a second visit. I've had shops that are just mediocre for a mediocre price. I've had shops who do great work but aren't really 'up to speed' and are still doing the work they have been doing for 40 years and don't have the capacity to answer modern questions you may have based on forum knowledge and research.

Daniels European met all my expectations and then exceeded them. The owner and team are car enthusiasts not just mechanics, so they are up to date on skills, knowledge, products, and even modification/aftermarket stuff. While working on my CTT they had a very keen eye and spotted a few things that doing now, for $0 extra cost to labor, saved me a trip in the future to repay the same labor getting back to that spot. They took pictures along the way, and even saved the parts for me to see on pickup. They stayed late as heck when no one asked them to because they knew I only had 1 car.

I could honestly go on for ages but the point is, I'm extremely picky when it comes to mechanics. I have been searching for a 'home' to build a relationship with for a long time and I'm stoked I found it. If you're looking for quality work, OEM or better parts, nothing but the highest quality fluids, and customer service rivaled by no one I've met so far, then you've found your new home with the team at Daniels European.

  Solid mechanic and business practices. Everything is always organized and clear. You can tell he cares about the work he does. Not the cheapest, but trustworthy.

  Gerardo did a great job on my daughters Audi! He changed out the spark plugs and used a walnut blasting technique to clean the carbon buildup on her valves. I... read more will definitely come back! Great customer service too!

  Daniels European rocks!!

I had a sensor that was out on my BMW tires and the dealership try to take a vantage of me. I called around and found... read more Daniels European and offered the best customer service, price, and line of work.

  I was really impressed by the level of service, transparency, and quality of work at Daniel's European. I had been through a circus of issues that my car manufacturer, dealer,... read more and other mechanics couldn't quite sort through, but the guys here were upfront with me about what was going on, why, and how to fix it. Had a really positive experience and would definitely come back!

  Gerardo and his team are amazing with both customers and their vehicles. As a DIY'er, they've earned my trust to fix my mistakes or help out whenever I get stuck... read more because Gerardo makes sure to explain what the issues they found were and what they did to resolve it plus he charges very fairly. They use nothing but liqui moly for all the cars they work on and they have it available in shop to purchase too. That's why this is the only shop i recommend to my friends and family that have European cars

  Trying to help small businesses, however there oil change and brake service cost more than the dealer. I might as well take it to the dealer.

  Here is a business I feel comfortable coming back to for service. The owner explained in detail what was done and needed in the future. Price I paid was reasonable... read more ( we all know how expensive repairs are for these cars) and I know I will be returning again when it's time to for service. I recommend Daniel's European to all who are looking for an honest reliable mechanic.

  Great Porsche, Audi, BMW auto shop in north Orange County! The owner knows what he's doing. Took my Porsche Cayenne there for a pre purchase inspection and did a great... read more job. A few months after I purchased the car the transfer case started going out. Gerardo looked through it and did some research and he found out that my car was still under factory warranty for this so was able to get that repaired under warranty at Porsche, he saved me thousands $$$$. Take my car to them anytime I need anything and you should too!

  When it comes to car repairs I can be a bit skeptical about the mechanic's assessment of what needs to be done versus what may not be entirely necessary. When... read more I took my car to Gerardo that sense of skepticism almost immediately went away as soon as I spoke to him about the car problems. He takes the time to listen to you and gives you his feedback in easy to understand laymen's terms. I left my car with him and he was very prompt about the diagnostic process and getting back to me about his assessment, solutions, and costs. I also asked him about recommendations for repairing a scratched and dented quarter panel on the car and he got me connected with Rafael from Fix Auto of La Habra and was able to coordinate everything to be done by the time the repairs were finished. Gerardo told me that he would give the car back to me in better condition than when I brought it in and when I picked up the car he had the car detailed and the interior cleaned! Unbelievable. It looked like a brand new car. It is so rare to have such an amazing, honest, genuine, caring, and kind experience as the one I had with Gerardo. He is truly a trustworthy person that cares about his clients. Thank you Gerardo!

  I never ever ever ever take my cars anywhere because shops are just too unreliable at times and I always feel like I'm being ripped off. Let me tell... read more you that is not the case here at Daniel's European! I brought my Porsche Cayenne turbo here for repairs cause I didn't have time to get to it and handle it myself. After speaking with them at Daniel's I actually was very comfortable when I left my car with him because I knew it was in good hands. I gave them time to complete the work and man oh man my car has never been better. The attention to detail is quite amazing and well worth every penny. I hate to say it but can't wait to come back to this shop! Everyone is friendly and the service is great! Thank You for taking care of me and my car!!

  Horrible experience. Would not bring my high end vehicle back here. First of all, this is suppose to be an auto repair business, not a weekend day care for the... read more guys girlfriend. On two separate occasions he did not complete the work and failed to notify me. Then he started to blame me even though he had to close shop and go on an errand. And as if that wasn't enough, he raised his prices so that he could be more "in-line" with the other shops. Only he tells you after he does the $360 diagnostic. Avoid this place.

  Gerardo is very thorough and detail-oriented when it comes to your car and will provide you the highest level of service. I have a 2012 Audi S5 and he... read more took care of my car as if it was his own - which i very much appreciate! I needed my brakes fixed about 6 months ago and he did such a great job that I've decided to go back to him for future needs for my car. He is worth every penny if/when you need work done on your car. I highly recommend!

  I've taken my Mercedes here a couple of times and have been so impressed by Gerardo's professionalism and service. He is very thorough and charges a fair price for his... read more work. So glad I found this place! Highly recommended!
