Max's German and Japanese Car Service

10/10 experience and service. Max tested and replaced my battery in 30 minutes. After a terrible 3 day long experience with VW DTLA dealership, Max was a godsend. He was knowledgeable, quick, and 1/2 the price VW quoted me. He just gained a loyal, repeat customer! Thank you!!!

Here’s a tip- get a formal quote/estimate with his name, address, and business information. You won’t.Not sure how my previous review was removed but I am fervent about warning people about Max. He is rude, unprofessional, demanding, works out of his apartment illegally, and does shoddy work. I brought my car to him because it needed a new radiator. I paid for the part up front, he installed it days after we agreed, and only attached the hose! Didn’t even mount it to the manifold. I had to take my car back to him twice in two weeks from other problems that stemmed from his ‘work’ and when the radiator problem came up again the next month, he refused to even speak with me. Work is terrible. Even speaking with max is terrible. His operation is illegal and now I know why. He can’t stand behind any of his work. I tried to work with him to figure out what went wrong and he demanded more money and stopped answering my calls. Not to mention called me childish names. Insanity. I have reported him to the bureau of automotive repair. I hope they shut him down. I will keep reposting this experience as max keeps trying to take it down.

Max is a lifesaver and a true gem. I came to him distressed about my AC needed fixing. He handled it diligently and kindly and had a great price. Go to him before anyone else!
