Review is long over due. I've never had a better experience with a shop. These guys are amazing, honest, and straightforward. I work on my own car these days, but I send everyone who needs VW or Audi work their way, because I know they will take good care of them. Salta is a truly rare find.

I have been going to salta since at least 08 and have always treated me beyond great! They make owning any Audi I have owned a great experience, and sometimes that s hard to do with German cars.They are a bunch of great, hardworking, honest guys!

I take my car here, I drive wherever I want whenever I want, and I sleep at night. No laws of physics have ever been broken while explaining what was done to my car. I will always have an Audi because I don t have to worry about who will work on my car. Thanks Salta!

I absolutely cannot thank this company enough for saving me when I had a faulty battery on my Audi S3. They managed to squeeze me in the day I called and kept me updated through the delivery of the battery and when my car was done. They did a complimentary overlook of my car and found that I had a broken seal on one of my injectors. I had previously brought my car to a different mechanic because I kept smelling a strong fuel odor and the mechanic said he couldn t find anything wrong with the car and didn t smell the fuel odor. I m pretty sure that mechanic only checked if my car was throwing codes. I m very grateful Salta has found the issue and I m looking forward to bringing in my car for my January 31st appointment. Overall 6/5 stars for this shop.Service: Auto battery replacement

10 Stars! From the minute they picked up the phone until they completed the service, Joseph and Steve took excellent care of me. I came to them after an awful experience at a different shop and they listened well, immediately took my car for a test drive to figure out what was wrong, took before pictures, and sent me a detailed estimate. Doing the work, they went the extra mile and replaced screws that previous mechanics didn t bother to reattach, they fixed the problem in 1 day, and they saved me $2000 by alerting me to a coolant issue that due to a recall, VW will fix for free. I will never go anywhere else, especially to the other shop that I wrote a 1 star review for. Please do yourself a favor and work with Salta!Service: Auto maintenance

Can't recommend Salta and this team enough. Seriously awesome guys and very knowledgeable. I've been taking my Golf to them since we bought it as I trust them more than I would any VW dealership. Honest pricing, open communication, and they don't try to over sell you on things you don't need. Just good quality mechanics that are passionate about their work. Always fun to talk Rally and F1 with them too! Go team BIS and CHIARELLI!Services: Auto battery replacement, Tire rotations, Vehicle Inspection, Oil change

I had a couple of issues with my passat and Salta did an amazing job. Jared was my tech and he was polite, knowledgeable, and had great customer service. The pricing was very good, especially considering the fast turnaround time.

This shop is amazing!I ve lived in Denver for 3 years and I m so happy I finally found these guys. I ve been trying to find an honest shop to be able to take my car to, and I ve finally found it.Everyone goes above and beyond and they re all really nice.I have an 08 new beetle that has 230,000 miles on it, I ve always been told overly high number just because my car is a pain to work on but I feel that Salta has given me the most reasonable prices I ve come across.My turn around time was really quick and they were able to look at and diagnose my car quicker than they initially said which was great.

Salta has always done a great job working on all our VWs. I've had much better results with them over the runaround you get at the dealership. If you love your VW or Audi, this is where you should have it serviced.

Took my car here for over two years. Everyone is knowledgeable, honest and friendly. Super cool that the owners also modify and race their own Volkswagen s. Highly recommended!

I took my Audi Q5 to the Flatirons Audi dealership for a slow oil leak, I paid $149 to have a 60 point inspection. They wanted to charge me $2300 to fix it. After calling around and reading some reviews I ended up going to Salta Services. They didn't even charge me to do their own inspection, although they did do an inspection. They agreed with Audi dealership on what needed to be done but they only charged me $946. It was fantastic! Steve and Joseph are amazing! They're friendly and personable and very professional.They love what they do and they're good at it. It was a pain free experience and I appreciate them greatly! I RECOMMEND!

I've been intending on writing this review for a long time. I can't express how invaluable Salta has been to me over the years! If you're a woman who is unsure about trusting a mechanic or auto shop be rest assured the guys at Salta are wonderful!I was referred to Salta by a client of mine years ago. From day one every single mechanic who works here has been so friendly and highly professional and amazing! I have worked with Martin and Joseph and not sure who else but whoever I deal with is always polite and super helpful. EVERY TIME.They always solve any issue I have with my car. Usually, I rely on other men in my life to make sure I'm not being cheated or getting the service my car needs but since I found Salta, I don't need this assurance as I wholeheartedly trust any person at Salta after years of amazing and affordable service.I particularly appreciate how they take the time to educate me about repairs and break it down in understandable terms too. I even call Salta at times for advise on purchases for my car and they always respectfully help me and truly care.A year ago I needed to get another car. I asked Salta to advise on the sole account I wanted to buy VW because I wanted to keep coming to Salta and "only" Salta for my services. Because of their advice, I got an amazing car and recently Joseph even advised me about some rims I was looking to purchase. When I called he dropped everything and did a dive on the internet to make sure I was making a smart purchase. He even sent me an e-mail to educate me about some great tires to buy for the winter for my car too even though they don't even sale tires.The other day my fuel door wouldn't open. I tried everything I could find from google searches and nothing worked! Finally I decided to call Joseph again (i really didn't want to bother him but I had no choice at this point). Joseph told me to swing buy and offered to help me. Of course for what ever reason the door popped right open once I got there.I can't express how invaluable finding Salta has been in my life. It takes the stress completely out of auto repairs and I feel like a have a whole team who has my back completely.I. LOVE. SALTA!Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine tuning

I reached out to Salta regarding an engine code that was electrical in nature and something that I couldn't fix myself. I've always done my own mechanic work and was apprehensive taking my car in. I contacted them via the website and let them know about my problem and my concerns. I received a prompt response back from Joseph who was very friendly and accommodating. His communication with me via email and over the phone was nothing less than professional and a breath of fresh air. He explained what might be wrong with the car, did a deeper dive, spoke with me about it, gave me some recommendations and options, and was never ever trying to push anything extra on me. My car is fully fixed and I cannot thank Joseph and the team at Salta enough for their professionalism and wonderful service. I will always bring my Audi into this shop for work and will recommend them to everyone I know. Check em out!Services: Electrical repair, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Oil change

Driving from Alaska to Texas, my Audi S4 fuel pump started giving out with the heat in Denver. Steve invited me to come straight in to run the diagnostic right as they were closing. They ordered the parts and fixed it the next day no problem. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. If you need your VW or Audi serviced, this is the place hands down! Quick and charged a great price. Thank you Steve and team!

This is an excellent place in all regards. I chose Salta because they are close to my work and had great reviews. I am more impressed than I have ever been with a mechanic.Steve and Brian have serviced my Audi A6 for three years now. Any time I have needed any work from an oil change to radiator hoses these guys have always done their work right the first time.I highly recommend taking your vehicle here. It will be in good hands, that is for sure.

I called in the morning to have a pre-purchase inspection done on a car that I was looking at purchasing. Martin answered and worked with me throughout the day to find a time to bring the car in, as there were three people schedules that we had to work around (Saltas, mine, and the sellers). Martin ended up getting the car in the shop that afternoon and even stayed a little past close to make sure I had a full understanding of the good and bad on the car I was having inspected. He even was able to lend his knowledge in upfront costs that would need to be addressed soon after the purchase and gave me quotes so I could gauge pricing. I couldnt be more impressed with the the crew at Salta. When I do find the car I am looking for, you can be sure I will be taking it to have all its maintanence and modifications done at Salta Performance!!Service: General repairs & maintenance

Salta Service truly sets and maintains a high standard of service, its in their name after all. I took my Audi A4 into them and they were able to quickly diagnose the issue, provide a quote, and set up a time for repair. I currently work odd hours and remain on call, but Salta was very accommodating to my schedule and last minute schedule changes. Everyone I spoke with seemed very competent and provided genuine and honest feedback. I'm very satisfied with the service, and I would encourage others to seek out Salta for their service needs. Great group of people!

Purchased a 99 Passat and it would not pass emissions for the life of me. I replaced the timing belt, did a tune up, and still failed emissions. I started to think it was the Catalytic Converter and I couldn't justify spending $1k on a CARB cat. Joseph at Salta did a phenomenal job at diagnosing my vehicle. Turned out to be a valve on the turbo and the vehicle passed emissions with flying colors after the repair. I can't thank him enough!They inspected the vehicle's suspension, brake system, and other parts; and pointed out things that I overlooked that will need replacing soon. These guys aren't just technicians, they are enthusiasts and they take pride in their work. As being a technician myself; Salta Motorsports will be getting my business from now on with my Volkswagen.

I ve never been so happy to have my car in the shop before. Prior to my first time here, I had always taken my car to a dealership. After my experience with the guys at Salta, I ll never take my VW anywhere else. Their customer service, honesty, and quickness in getting cars fixed is exceptional. From start to finish, these guys were 100% honest and nothing but the best to work with!

There are three essential services everyone needs in life: a good doctor, a great accountant and an exceptional mechanic. Salta Service & Performance exceeded my expectations (not the easiest of tasks to accomplish). After several weeks (seven to be exact) and thousands of dollars later at another shop (5280 Motorsports), I took the car to Salta Service & Performance. Steve diagnosed and corrected the problem w/in two days. While diagnosing the issue, Steve disassembled the steering system and noticed a few items that 5280 did not install/adjust properly. Steve properly reinstalled/readjusted as well as replaced the power steering pump (5280 did it twice). I ve been to several Audi mechanics in the Denver area and Salta is the only shop I can recommend. I take very good care of my car and I expect a mechanic to be more knowledgeable than myself. Not only are the guys at Salta genuinely nice, but they re professional, extremely knowledgeable and less expensive than some of the other shops in the area. Don't waste your time or money with any other shop. Go to Salta!

Was looking for an independent VW mechanic online. When I saw the reviews for Salta, I decided to check them out. It has turned out to be a very smart decision. The owners Joseph and Steve as well as Martin have been absolutely awesome! Very professional and knowledgeable with reasonable pricing. They answer any and all of your questions in an honest and patient way. You can tell they enjoy what they do for a living. Took my GTI in for a 40K service and had such a good experience that I am having them do some upgrades. Highly recommend this shop if you own a VW or Audi!!

My Audi died in the street 8mnths ago and I had been saving ever since just figuring the repair was gonna be super costly. After searching online through countless websites for my cars new shop I decided on Salta and after contacting them about my car I had it towed in to the Audi/VW specialist shop for inspection. Joseph was the was the ultimate troubleshooter and was able to find my cars malfunction and provided a detailed list of all the necessary repairs and costs for each service. After the repair service and tune-up I went for emissions and passed. I am so happy :) my Audi runs so well it seems happy too :) They even washed my car; it was super dirty from sitting all winter. The guys down at Salta are super smart, gifted mechanics I will be proud to partner with for the life of my Audi.

The guys at Salta gave me an in depth, honest diagnosis of the problem i was having with my vehicle as well as several other issues they noticed during their inspection. They were knowledgeable about their craft and got the repair done quickly and correctly. I will definitely be bringing my Audi back here for all future services and (hopefully not) repairs.

Best garage experience EVER! We were traveling cross country and the VW would not accelerate. These guys squeezed us in and made it happen. Honest, fair and great at explaining -they worked on our car for 3 hours but only charged us for one! Remember we were so far from home they could have charged us 5x as much! Nice guys! Smart too. Would definitely suggest anyone who owns a VW or AUDI to go there!

These guys are real VW specialists. I had a 08 Beetle and I went to Brake Plus and they said there's oil pan leaking and cylinder head leaking, which really sounds severe, and I knew nothing about car, so I'm very worried. I basically sent emails to every VW specialists I can find on Google Map asking for a quote, Salta was the first and the only one replied my email(thank you Joseph) asking for more details for accurate quote and suggest me to drop by for a free inspection cuz they want to inspect by themselves. Turns out there's nothing wrong with oil pan or cylinder, it was something else. They also noticed my engine light is on and fixed that. In all, I fixed two parts that caused oil leaking, cleaned one filter and fixed engine light, costs me 950+ in all, though I knew nothing about the pricing market, I'd say it was quite worth it since I was worried it'll cost more. This place is really far from my address, but I'd definitely spend a half hour to come back here rather than other auto services 5 minutes from my home. The only drawback might be they're quite busy, so make sure you make an appointment earlier!Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic
