These guys are awesome! Drove from Utah to have them build the motor on my RS3. They did and amazing job and were very good at communicating with me. They know what they are doing and were fast at doing it too. I will definitely make the drive again for any other work I may need doneService: Engine repairService: Engine repair

I can t explain how professional these guys are , they are the only shop I trust to work on my golf R. They knock out pretty big jobs on your car within the same day. I ve dropped off my car and went to Disney land (it s only 5 minutes away) and picked up my car when they are done. Best prices & really professional.

Hands down one of the best shops around. I ve been taking my cars to them for quite a while now and they are always willing to go the extra mile to make sure you re satisfied. They don t upcharge you on things you don t need and always are priced fairly for the work you need done. Can t recommend these guys enough.

Highly recommend this shop, came from San Diego to get some springs and spacers installed and they got me right. Not only do they design great products but their services are great as well. 5 stars.

I cannot say enough good things about EMD. I emailed them on a day they were closed and they replied immediately. I got an appointment set up to do a full stage 2 suspension kit, flush kit, and dogbone inserts on my audi s3. I would recommend them to anyone looking for audi modifications!Services: Steering & suspension repair, Wheel alignmentServices: Steering & suspension repair, Wheel alignment

Don't hesitate to deal with EMD Auto. I had the pleasure of dealing with both Thomas and Tyler. These guys are pros and do amazing work. Had an engine built for my 17' R and it's been flawless. Tyler was great with communication during the entire process. Thanks again! Looking forward to dealing with them again.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Engine repairServices: General repairs & maintenance, Engine repair

You guys make the best lowering springs around. Perfect on my 19 DCC GTI. All modes still feel like OEM while having a lower ride height and less body roll. Thank you for making such good products!

Brought my car in to get a jb4 re-installed. The staff was knowledgeable and performed the work in a timely and clean manner. Unfortunately the unit was faulty (by no fault of theirs) and they removed it so I could perform a warranty exchange. Will be coming back in the future.

Great shop. I ve used them twice now, one for new brakes and the other for routine maintenance. They don t make up sell and don t make you feel stupid for asking questions. I drive up from Mission Viejo and will continue to bring my GTI back for future needs.

I recently got a stage 3 clutch for my mk7 gti, called a few places that quoted no less than 800-900 dollars to install. I went on a forum and several people recommended this place. I gave them a call and they quoted me a really good price I wasn t to sure if it was to good to be true. I went ahead and took the risk and super glad I did. They did a really good job and were very punctual with their time. Will now be my go to place for the future!Service: Transmission

EXCELLENT customer service!!! I ordered a B9 Spacer Flush kit and received the incorrect spacer by mistake. I contacted EMD Auto and got a response within 15 minutes with a return authorization to ship back the spacer. The correct part was also mailed out on the same day. I cannot be happier with the speed and care of the customer support team. Thank you!

Thomas is just a pleasant guy to work with. He's definitely a master at his craft. Very patient and honest.I have his suspension on my MK7 GTI installed by him and his crew. He's also swapped an IS38 with the works on my car. Amazing turn around time and amazing service. They even have cute doggies that greet you.I'd recommend anyone looking for quality service at awesome rates and superb hospitality.

Best customer service ever!! took really good care of my RS3. They promised 2 week for my build and got done ahead of schedule. I'm extremely happy I did business with EMD auto. My car is running amazing. Will continue working with them. Ohhhh and pricing is extremely reasonable. Why go to the dealership for service when EMD does it for a better price and way better work.

I posted a inquiry on a Audi Facebook page looking for a downpipe and Tyler Y messaged me within 10 minutes letting me know he had exactly what I was looking for in stock (out of stock at every other retailer) Fantastic customer service. Can't wait to receive it

One of the best shops in California for MQB platforms. Thomas is an expert and professional and I highly recommend them.

EMD has been taking care of my 991 Turbo S for 5 years. They installed all of the bolt-on modifications and designed and installed the methanol injection system. They also helped get rid of boost leaks which were frequent with the weak stock couplers. Oh yeah and it's the fastest stock motor 991 Turbo S in the Western US....182mph in the half mile..nearly 150mph in the 1/4 mile. These guys do the mods and maintenance on all my other cars as well. I used to use high priced *brand* name shops and they have no where near the customer service as EMD, which has similar or better technical experience as some of these full-on race shop. Thx EMD.

Amazing customer service, great work, and the best prices around. I will be back and I both recommend and encourage anybody that needs work done on their cars to head over to EMD.

Met Thomas the owner when I stopped by to pick up some oil for my car. Thomas couldn't have been more helpful, cordial or professional.Quick transaction, no pressure or attempt to upsell of any kind and he even gave me a discount just so my change would come out to a clean $20. Who does that?! Thomas does that.I can see why the waiting room was full of others getting work done for their cars - friendly staff and great service.Definitely recommend this place.

I wish I could rate them even higher. 36k miles on my VW since new, and this is the only shop I have and will ever take it to. Every time I leave emd auto, I have a huge grin from ear to ear. Thomas and his team do incredible work for a very fair price. Definitely my most and pretty much only trusted shop for all things VW related (they specialize in Audi). You will not regret stopping by or making an appointment. Thomas is very punctual and understanding, and does not try to upsell anything ever. They will not try to BS you into buying something you don't need. In fact, where a dealership may fail to fix a problem, Thomas and the team at EMD Auto certainly will fix it. Can't say enough about how great of a shop this is, I've been a returning customer now for almost three years and they've got me for life for Audi/VW needs. Don't hesitate if you're looking for a trusted and reliable shop, you will not find one anywhere near as professional and caring as EMD Auto.

Purchased their aluminum turbo coolant adapter for VW EA888.3 (gen 3 tsi) motors. Replaces VW craplastic p/n 06K 121 143. Not cheap, mind you, but you definitely get what you paid for. Simply a superb part. Well machined, rounded edges in all the right places. One less thing to worry about on long trips.

Just visited this shop to get my mk6 gti tuned. Everything about the process was perfect. Communication was great, and Thomas really makes sure you are informed with what is going on with your car. Wish I had more cars to tune just so I could visit this shop. All in all I'm very happy with my decision. Thanks!

Thomas (and associates) have provided flawless modification installations on my vehicle and has provided outstanding customer support. If you have any technical questions, have scheduled maintenance to take care of, or interested in purchasing and having aftermarket parts installed this is the place to have it performed!
