01 / Services

What we do for your car

From a quick oil change to major repairs. We follow the manufacturer’s schedule, stamp your service book and are happy to show you the old parts we took out.

Service & maintenance

Done to the manufacturer’s specs and stamped in your service book, so your factory warranty stays intact.

Brakes & suspension

Pads, rotors, brake fluid, shocks and wheel alignment. Get there safely, even on the B41 in winter.

Tires & storage

Seasonal wheel swap in about 20 minutes, balancing, tread check. We store your second set clean and dry.

A/C service

Evacuate and recharge, leak test, disinfection – for R134a and R1234yf systems.

Diagnostics & electrical

Check engine light on? We read the codes and tell you honestly what’s behind it – and what isn’t.

Inspection prep (HU/TÜV)

We check everything the inspector looks at and fix problems beforehand. The inspection itself happens right here at our shop on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Our specialty

Brought your car from the States? We’ve got you.

A lot of our customers are stationed in Baumholder and shipped their own car over. We take care of it just like any other:

  • Oil changes to US specs – the viscosity and rating in your owner’s manual (e.g. API SP or newer)
  • Parts for US models, ordered through specialist suppliers – usually here within a few days
  • SAE (inch) tools and diagnostic equipment for American vehicles
  • We help you get your car ready for inspection and explain everything in plain English
Miles or km – no problem.

Just ask – we’ll tell you straight what we can do for your model.

02 / Inspection check

Inspection due? Find out in seconds.

In Germany, cars need a main inspection (called “HU”, often just “TÜV”) every two years. Enter when your car last had one – or simply read the round sticker on your rear license plate – and we’ll show you when the next one is due.
