AVS Specialists

Okay so here is a bit on cars. This is my shop. Not like my show I own it or even work there but I go there. I take my cute blue A4 there for any reason and give Ron and Eddie a hard time. They come to Audi Club events with us, well really I go with them. Anyway, this was a review I found on the shop and you know... I'm just a sharing type of person!

Re: Good repair shop for our out-of-warranty VW's (Feb 2005)
I can recommend a new shop that I had a wonderful experience with. It is AVS Specialists (510-981-1837) and is in Berkeley at 2210 San Pablo a couple of blocks south of University, next to Omega 2.
They only work on Audis and Volkswagens. The owner, Eddie Delgado [he kicks ass], has been working on Audis and VWs for over 15 years. He did a thorough inspection of my car and figured out what was going on with it and what needed to be done. He made sure I clearly understood what work needed to be done now, as well as what could be postponed, helping me save money. While Eddie was explaining all this to me, he treated me like I was an intelligent person who didn't need to be talked down to because I am not especially versed in the inner workings of cars.
He fixed my car the same day I dropped it off! He [probably Tieara] even gave me a ride and picked me up from the BART station. Their number is 510 981-1837. I highly recommend AVS.
finally found a great auto repair shop.

This is Ian, my brother, in his 1980's Audi 4000. He's tweaked it a bit. I drove it twice at an event when my car wasn't so happy and spun it TWICE!!! It drove so different than mine. Not so forgiving. But he drives it really well. Good thing it's his car.







This is my in my old Audi. Princess Pearl. She is/was a great car. Eddie has her still. I'm trying to get him to sell her to a friend of mine but he says it remind him of me too much. Whatever, I just don't think it's running so well any more. I mean she is 16 years old. She is old enough to drive herself!
