Reviews

The crew at Autohaus Merkel always makes the appointments go smooth. They are super thorough and my wife and I feel completely comfortable, after their tech inspections, pushing our Audi track cars to 10/10ths for every event we attend each year. Fast, friendly and thorough sums it up. Thanks to Eric, Tyler, Ben, Shawn, Trask and Scott!

Good job at explaining the parts and service. Made it convenient for me.

Autohaus Merkle is great! I’m recently new customer, and with two great experiences with two different cars, they are now my preferred auto repair/maintenance shop. Friendly staff, thorough explanations, and reasonable prices.

So very thankful for the 5 stars Beth! I am glad that we were able to provide consistent service on both of your vehicles and visits! That is most certainly our goal. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review that provides feedback as to why you are happy with our service. We look forward to providing you with the same or better service from here on out! We only aim to be better.

They helped me navigate a potentially difficult situation with a warrantied part from a different, out of state independent Audi shop. They made sure I understood what was going on, and were patient with all my questions. You cannot find a better autouhaus in Indy. Very grateful for their help and fair pricing.

Thank you Frederick for the wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that our team provided you with exceptional service in navigating your warrantied part situation. It is not always an easy situation when working with a warranty company or another shop. We always strive to ensure clear communication and a superior customer experience.

Took my new to me 2023 Audi RS3 for a post purchase inspection. Gave me all the necessary information and a clean bill of health.

Thank you for bringing your Audi RS3 to us, Don. We're glad we could provide a thorough inspection and assurance of its condition.

If you have any further questions or need any future assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Had my timing belt done. The price was fair. They also sent pictures of other things they found my car needed through text which was cool.

Thanks for taking the time to give us a great review Chad! We are working on a lot of things that help to give full transparency to our customers. The inspections with pictures is one of them. I very much appreciate the feedback. I will admit it’s not perfect yet but we have that system pretty well in place.

the best German car shop in Indy. I have an older car, and have been a consistent customer, and am always treated fairly. work is professional and always done to a high standard

Hello Scott! thanks for the great review! We typically do not do too much with the older cars, but you know I have a soft spot for the R129! Will strive to continue to provide the service that you have previously received for as long as you continue to drive that great machine!

I took my 2017 BMW 330e here. I had trouble with my A/C unit blowing up on me. Merkle got it in the shop in 4 days, and started diagnostics and working within the week. The turn around time was that of the flash and was able to have my car back within a week or so. The A/C is now blowing arctic air into the cabin and the light for my broken A/C is now gone from the ECU. One thing I was worried about that's honestly not a big deal is the cleanliness of my car when I get it back. I have had other shops never put a cover over the floors and get dirt and oil in my interior. Thankfully I had no such issues here and the interior was almost exactly as clean as it was when I dropped it off which was refreshing. Highly recommend Autohaus Merkle and thankful my car is no longer a sauna.

Hey Grant! Thanks for the great review! We strive to do a great job every time. We appreciate you highlighting some specific parts of your experience with us to share. It means a lot to us and to the people who are looking at using us for service. We do have policy about using floor mats in every vehicle and we do a cleanliness check before delivering the vehicle back to the customer. I am glad that we delivered on your main worry. And of course that your repair was successful and your intended concern was addressed. Thank you very much for your business.

Love this shop! 100% professional and ethical. I would not trust my Audi SQ5 to any other. I learned this through having another shop check it out for a small oil leak. Granted this other shop said they worked on all cars foreign and domestic plus did some work for us in the past, but this one diagnosis didn’t seem right. They quoted over $6000 for a rear gasket replacement. We decided to get a second opinion and the professionals at Autohaus Merkle did a very thorough review and determined it was a cracked filter housing not the rear gasket saving me a ton but also an accurate diagnosis. They also picked up on another issue on the engines that the other shop had no idea to even look at. Because of their experience and knowing these engines they were bang on. A cooling system issue that fails around the mileage we were at, this preventive repair still costly but I felt that we invested in the future of this car. It has been perfect ever since! I highly recommend if you need a second opinion reach out to the pros at Autohaus Merkle!

Thank you so much for the great review and highlighting the parts of your experience that made your visit worth it. And highlighting the value you received though the repair was costly. We very much appreciate the feedback and you taking the time to do it!

- Autohaus Merkle

Top notch shop. They know what to look for. They'll let you know what issues are appearing and when you need to be concerned. They don't try the hard upsell stuff to try and pad the bill. I heard the service writers calling someone they were doing some work for. The car owner had declined some earlier diagnostic work to find a coolant leak. They were doing something else for the owner and found the coolant leak after the intake was taken off. Called them and let them know it would be cheaper to fix it while they were in there. Just a nice solid honest shop!

Thanks for the great review! I really appreciate that you took the extra time to explain why you gave us 5 stars! Though we do try and look at everything we can while the car is in and present it all to our customers, we also want to make it clear that you may not need it all right now. We try to be realistic and fair. Honesty is one of our core values and I am glad our family put that on display today! We look forward to taking care of you're car in the future!
