Mobile German car repair in Denver, done right

Every service Kevin offers is built around one thing: German and European cars specifically. Not a general shop that occasionally sees a BMW. A specialist who's worked on nothing else for 5 years.

Why it matters

What Kevin works on. And why it matters that he specializes.

BMW
Mercedes-Benz
Audi
Volkswagen
Porsche
Mini

Also serviced

Fiat
Land Rover
Volvo
Jaguar
Alfa Romeo

German cars — BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Porsche, Volkswagen, Mini — are engineered differently. Tighter tolerances. More complex electronics. Software that requires proper scan tools to read correctly. Parts that need to match the exact spec for your model and year.

A general mechanic can work on your German car. But a specialist has seen your exact fault code before. Has replaced that exact water pump on that exact engine. Knows which shortcuts to avoid and which steps matter.

That's the difference Kevin brings — and why every service below is performed with German and European vehicles specifically in mind.

Diagnostics

Mobile German car diagnostics — Denver, Aurora, Littleton & surrounding areas

The foundation of every good repair. Kevin uses proper German car diagnostic tools — not a generic OBD reader — to pull codes, read live data, and actually understand what your car is telling him.

What's included

Full German/Euro scan tool diagnostic
Fault code reading & interpretation
Live data analysis
Visual inspection based on fault findings
Honest repair recommendation — including if it needs a shop

$130 Diagnostic fee

Applied toward the repair if you move forward with Kevin on the same visit.

Pre-purchase baseline

The honest part

Kevin tells you what he found, what it means, and what it'll cost to fix — before touching anything else. If the repair is outside what he does mobile, he'll tell you and point you in the right direction. No $130 fee to hear "can't help you."

Brake service & repair

Mobile brake repair — BMW, Audi, Mercedes & Euro cars — Denver metro

One of Kevin's most-requested services and one where German car owners get burned most often by generic shops using wrong-spec parts. Kevin uses the right pads and rotors for your specific model — because a BMW M3 and a Honda Civic do not use the same brake components.

What's included

Brake pad replacement
Rotor replacement or resurfacing
Caliper inspection & replacement
Brake fluid flush & bleed
Electronic parking brake service (where applicable)
Full brake system inspection

New drilled rotor and red caliper fitted on site — New rotor & pads — fitted on site

Pulling to one side

Water pump & cooling system

Mobile water pump replacement — BMW, Audi, Mercedes — Denver & Front Range

Water pump failures are common on German cars — especially BMW — and dealer quotes are eye-watering. Kevin handles water pump replacements mobile, with the right parts, at a fraction of dealer cost.

What's included

Water pump replacement
Thermostat replacement
Coolant flush & refill
Cooling system pressure test
Radiator hose inspection
Serpentine belt inspection (replaced if due)

Thermostat housing removed with coolant ready to refill — Thermostat housing out — coolant ready

Common signs you need this

Temperature gauge climbing
Coolant puddle under the car
Sweet smell from the engine
Overheating warning
Heater blowing cold

Why this matters for German cars

BMW's electric water pumps, Audi's timing chain-driven pumps, Mercedes cooling system quirks — these are not generic repairs. Kevin knows the failure patterns specific to each brand and addresses the full system, not just the failed part.

Alternator & charging system

Mobile alternator replacement — German & Euro cars — Denver CO

Battery light on? Lights dimming? Jumped it twice this week? The battery is usually not the problem — the alternator is. Kevin diagnoses the charging system properly and replaces alternators on-site, same day on most German models.

What's included

Charging system diagnosis & testing
Alternator replacement
Serpentine belt inspection
Post-repair charging system verification

BMW 3 Series with the hood up during a driveway service call — BMW 3 Series — driveway call

Call or Text: (720) 917-4601

Battery replacement & BMS registration

Mobile battery replacement with BMS registration — BMW, Audi, Mercedes — Denver

This is where a lot of "cheap" battery replacements go wrong on German cars. BMW, Mini, and some Audi and Mercedes models require Battery Management System (BMS) registration after a new battery is installed — without it, the car's charging system doesn't adapt correctly and you'll be back with problems in months.

What's included

Battery replacement (correct spec for your model)
BMS registration where required
Charging system test
Terminal & cable inspection

The German Precision service truck set up beside a Mercedes with the hood open — Service truck — set up on the driveway

Common signs you need this

Slow or lazy crank
Dead after sitting a few days
Warning lights after a jump start
Battery four years or older
Electronics behaving oddly

Kevin does it right the first time.

Suspension — struts & shocks

Mobile suspension repair — BMW, Audi, Mercedes — Denver & Front Range

Front and rear strut and shock replacement on German cars is a job most mobile mechanics won't attempt. Kevin does. If your BMW is wallowing through corners or your Audi is bottoming out, Kevin diagnoses and replaces suspension components mobile.

What's included

Front & rear strut replacement
Shock absorber replacement
Strut mount & bearing inspection
Sway bar link inspection

Replacement Bilstein strut fitted on location — Replacement strut — fitted on location

Common signs you need this

Bouncy or unstable ride

Clunking over bumps
Uneven tire wear
Sitting lower on one corner

Call or Text: (720) 917-4601

Starter replacement

Mobile starter replacement — German & Euro cars — Denver metro

Click and nothing. Or a grinding noise when you turn the key. A failed starter leaves you completely stuck — Kevin diagnoses it on the spot and replaces it mobile where accessible.

What's included

Starter diagnosis
Starter motor replacement
Electrical connection & cable inspection

BMW 4 Series with the hood up at the kerb during a service call — BMW 4 Series — hood up at the kerb

Oil change & filter service

Mobile oil change — BMW, Audi, Mercedes — Denver CO

Not all oil is the same. BMW Longlife-04, VW 504/507, Mercedes 229.5 — German manufacturers specify oil grades for a reason and running the wrong spec causes real damage over time. Kevin uses the correct oil for your exact vehicle, every time.

What's included

Oil drain & refill (correct grade & spec)
Oil filter replacement
Service interval reset
Visual inspection of fluid levels & leaks

New Hengst filter, correct spec for the car — New Hengst filter — correct spec

Tune-up service

Ignition coil inspection & replacement
Air filter replacement
Fuel system inspection
Throttle body cleaning where applicable

Oil leak repair

Mobile oil leak repair — BMW, Audi, Mercedes — Denver metro

Oil leaks on German cars are common and usually come from a handful of known failure points — valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, rear main seals. Kevin tracks down the source and repairs it mobile on most models.

What's included

Leak source diagnosis
Valve cover gasket replacement
Oil pan gasket replacement
Seal & o-ring replacement
Post-repair inspection

Oil cooler and vacuum pump with the leak source traced — Oil cooler & vacuum pump — leak traced

Pre-purchase inspection (PPI)

Mobile pre-purchase inspection — BMW, Audi, Mercedes — Denver CO

Thinking about buying a used German car? A PPI from a specialist who knows exactly what to look for on these vehicles is the best $130 you'll spend. Kevin inspects the car at the seller's location — before you commit to anything.

What's included

Full visual inspection (body, undercarriage, engine bay)
Diagnostic scan for fault codes
Fluid condition check
Brake & tire inspection
Suspension & steering check
Honest written assessment

Porsche Cayenne inspected on the seller's driveway — Porsche Cayenne — inspected where it sits

Common reasons to call

Private-party purchase

Before the warranty runs out

Why a German car specialist matters for a PPI

A generic mechanic checks the basics. Kevin knows the model-specific failure points — the BMW timing chain issues, the Audi oil consumption problems, the Mercedes electrical gremlins — and checks for those specifically.

Scope

What's outside Kevin's scope

Kevin keeps his focus tight on purpose. There are two categories of work he doesn't take on:

Jobs outside German/Euro makes

Kevin works on German makes — BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Porsche, Volkswagen, Mini — and mainstream European makes including Fiat, Land Rover, Volvo, Jaguar and Alfa Romeo. If you drive a domestic or Japanese vehicle, Kevin isn't your guy — and he'll tell you that on the first call so you're not wasting time.

Transmission & differential services

These jobs require specialized equipment Kevin doesn't run mobile. He'll point you to a shop he trusts for this work — ask him and he'll tell you straight.

Kevin would rather turn down a job than do it wrong. That's why his Google reviews look the way they do.

Pricing
