Owner is very knowledgeable with my German car. Changed out new factory headlights that yellowed so bad you couldn't see at night. Also solved a noise problem I had in the front passenger side. Thankful for their honesty that saved me money from another repair shop that wasn't German car specialty.

Only have it a 1 because I couldn't write review without rating. Have been to R and D many times over the past maybe 5 years. Always seemed better than high price of dealer for maintenance and our repair. Unfortunately, check engineight came on a month ago. After receiving an estimate from R and D, I agreed to them fixing. I wish that was the end of the story. Unfortunately, pd $600, then picked up car "fixed". Yet 2 days later light on again. After getting stuck on the side of the road and having to be towed to then for repair of same problem, they added all kinds of parts that I supposedly needed, then called to say car was not reacting correctly, they would have to add toy already $900 estimate, which would now cost $1200. After a heated debate, I agreed, even though I shouldn't have paid them I did. And here we are 1 week afterpicking up the car and then insistingit was fixed and yes check engine on again.! I have to say seems as though, they don't know what they are doing.

2004 645Ci with 100k on the clock, needed a complete checkup with some minor details like a headlight out and a mysterious shut down of power at high rpm’s. Left the car with R&D for 5-6 weeks and when I picked it up the headlight was still out and the RPM problem still existed. Check engine light still on and he presented me with a $3k bill. Car was returned dirty and left outside his shop in a rough neighborhood. Good luck if you use this shop is all I have to say. Zero communication through the process as well.

Do they reprogram computers for Mercedes
