Santa Barbara German Auto Repair

Have you ever been to a mechanic where everyone working is smiling, calm, considerate, focused, detail orientated and maintaining eye contact during conversations? Neither had I, until I visited Schneider Autohaus. I purchased my dream car, a Porsche Macan S, unaware and somewhat turning a blind eye to the cost of ownership and skyrocketing dealer's hourly rates. I remain pleasantly surprised learning from experience Schneider Autohaus performs the same services and repairs as the dealer, at a fraction of the cost. As a car aficionado since I could form words, it never hurts to witness service being performed on local and out-of-state car collector's European exotics and classics in the same engine bays as where my Porsche is being serviced. I highly recommend the team at Schneider Autohaus and wish them ongoing success for decades to come. I'll see you in 5000 miles for my next oil change. Thank you!

The folks at Schneiders are professional, knowledgeable, and honest. I always feel that I'm being treated fairly. Never wonder if I'm being taken advantage of. And they do great work in a timely fashion.

Great service. Caesar was outstanding

Kept me informed about the ongoing repairs, gave me options, and did a great job of keeping my 2002 Boxter on the road!

Phenomenal service, attentiveness and very knowledgeable staff. Would recommend without hesitation for any Porsche owner in Santa Barbara! I will be a customer for as long as I am in town.

Super friendly and great service.

Professional, generous, competent and eager for your business.

Excellent! Excellent! I couldn't be happier with my recent service. I had a problem with my Cayenne, and I had travel for work and needed the vehicle returned quickly. The team at Schneider all worked to get my vehicle back quickly and back in running order. Open communication, regular updates, honest answers and great service all around. From the service desk with Keiran and Paula both remembering my name, to the techs who went the extra mile to blast out the repair in such a quick turn around. I couldn't be happier. I absolutely will be bringing my other Porsche to Schneider for service when its time and I will definitely refer others to do the same.

Always the best!

These are not merely the finest air cooled Porsche mechanics and back shop between Orange County and San Francisco, this is family. This is integrity. This is worth trailering your Porsche from 100 miles to the storied enclave of the Schneider Autohaus enclave in Santa Barbara. And I speak from experience. I've owned about a dozen air cooled Porsches over the years and I have never been happier with the service and the genuine relationship I have with all of the genuinely friendly, helpful staff at Schneider Haus in Santa Barbara. Take my word for it, if you have AAA Premier, Hagerty or any other roadside insurance that will pay for an annual tow of up to 200 miles, you will be genuinely delighted that you took your air cooled Porsche to Schneinder Haus. Ask for Henry, Paul, Kieren, Ceasar, or my best buddy Chris. And when you stop by to visit, be sure to look up the incredible shop dog, a fabulous Welsh Terrier by the name of Luna!
