Just have to add to my review...we've been coming here for over a year with our Audi and VW and Fares and Jennifer are just exceptional. They always take care of our emergencies and are helpful with more extensive repairs - what needs to be done - what can wait. We just bought a new VW and the dealer knew Fares - he is well regarded in the industry. I'm so thrilled to find a great local shop that is helpful, reasonable and trustworthy. We just moved to the area and have both an Audi and VW so they are perfect for us!! Yay! The Audi was badly in need of brakes. They were reasonable and timely and I'll be back next week for an oil change and some deferred maintenance on the VW. Our former shop on the West side was great, but very hard to get to, this shop has a metro stop nearby and an indoor kids play place within walking distance on Colorado!

As said before, You really can't get better service, maintenance and car care anywhere else in LA. Walnut st is a great place to bring your car in general, but Independent Audi is truly special. Fares has taken care of my car at incredibly affordable rates with such an easy going super honest attitude that I want to tip them every single time I pick my car up. My car was recently salvaged due to the high cost of repairs and Fares was totally fine with me buying my own parts to rebuild the car. His patience is amazing and he will try to help you out as much as he can. I have been to the other Audi shops in LA (dealers and tuners etc...) and they boast of having master techs on hand. I have found that you either pay $150 an hour/ insane parts prices or you get somebody who can't diagnose a brake problem so they sell you new pads and rotors for $950 and then try to replace every part of the system when you run out of brake fluid repeatedly (crack in the resevoir duh!) These guys know what they are doing and they are willing to work out a deal. The new addition of Jennifer in the office has made them even more efficient.

I visited Independent Audi today for a break light that was busted. Having gone to the Audi dealer in the past for such problems, I was prepared to be charge an arm and a leg, and then some for this job. Much to my surprise, Independent Audi changed my busted break light less than 5 min... AND for FREE!!!!! Now, I know that this might have been a small gesture for somebody, but not for me. Their generosity and promptness are greatly appreciated. I love this place. Their customer service exceeded my expectations beyond belief. They are very professional, always has a smile on their faces and are always willing to explain and answer all your questions. I trust them wholeheartedly with my car. Thank you Independent Audi! You are AWESOME!!!!!!

Hands down the best Audi-VW shop in LA. Fares and his team are honest. They care about their customers and their cars. The customer's best interest always comes first. I love taking my car to Independent Audi & VW and love recommending this place even more.

Fares, the owner, and his mechanics are simply amazing. My Audi A6's check engine light was flashing, and I brought it in for a diagnosis. They were able to quickly determine the problem, and determined that it was the ignition coils, informing me there was actually a manufacturer's recall that the dealer didn't even tell me about when I brought my car into the dealership 2 months prior. Since he didn't do any work other than finding the source of the problem, Fares didn't even charge me claiming that the didn't do any work to fix the problem, since the dealer would be fixing the problem due to the recall. He and his staff were very professional, honest, and courteous. I will definitely continue to bring in my car to his shop for all future maintenance jobs and problems.

I'm still coming here since my discovery of Independent Audi & VW Service in 2009. You know you have an AWESOME mechanic when you love taking your car for service. Fares has saved me from a lot of headaches which I would experience at the dealership. Everything is awesome here, service, rates etc. You will definitely not regret coming here!!!

where do I begin, these guys and gal do everything for you. Fares knows all about these cars (in my case, an Audi). He's honest, explains what needs to be done, and charges less than the competition. I had purchased my audi from a private party and took it in for maintenance and found out the lack of care the prior car owner did on the audi. Jennifer the office manager was thorough in explaining to me what was wrong and what needed to be done. I also asked them to look into estimates for the glove compartment lock which the prior owner broke, trunk visor which broke, and instrument cluster which was unreadable and without having to follow up with them, Jennifer called me back with the price of the parts and labor. Whenever I have a question about my audi they're a phone call away to give me expert advice on car care, or specs of the car. They are always patient and either in person or over the phone treat me like I'm their only customer. The prior car owner lost the radio anti-theft code, so I called up Jennifer and she said to bring it in and they can take out the radio and find the code for me FREE of charge. Jennifer went a step further for me and asked me where the car originated at and my carfax had Santa Monica Audi. She called around for me only to find out it was from Pacific Palisades, and was able to get me the code from the original dealer without me even leaving my house. Jennifer worked at several Audi dealerships and has contacts at most of them, and can get info on your cars condition, radio code, and history. I called downtown LA audi just to see how they would handle the retrieval of my radio code and the service guy at DOWNTOWN L.A. AUDI said $160 to retrieve my radio code. What!! They are fabulous. Thank you yelp for initially referring me to them.

Most honest vw guy I've ever come across! I've brought my 05 beetle to many mechanics either to have them, make things worse because they don't know how to work on it, or overcharge and keep it for an excessively long time. Weary at my first visit fares quickly changed my mind solving a returning problem my old mechanic "fixed" 4 times in a matter of hours, while the old guy took days, and at half the price. I have been going to fares for over a year now and her hasn't let me down once.. Your awesome fares!!!!

The best car service center I've ever dealth with. I love my car, but I would love it a lot less if I didn't have a trusted, fairly priced, service oriented mechanic to take it to. The owner, Fares, is outstanding. He'll tell you what you need, what you don't, and make sure the work is done right. When I had a recall fix I didn't even know about he even called the dealer before I did to help me out. As long as I drive an Audi, I will go nowhere else.

It's not often that the car is flakier than the service place. That's certainly the case with my Audi and the service here. Excellent service, no flakes! I still love my flaky Audi and now it has a home when it acts up.
