Bringing you the best in European and Import Auto Repair since April 1, 2008, DJ Foreign Auto Care is 6 years old today! We've come a long way since owner Darwin Sinche built the business from the ground up, starting at our old location on the edge of North Minneapolis. Prior to opening, the parking lot was unpaved and full of mostly junker taxis, inside the shop there was garbage and debris about four feet high in the main area of the shop and six feet high in the office. DJ Foreign Auto Care staff used a lot of elbow grease to make this location into a workable, clean and safe space! We even asked a Catholic priest to bless the shop to get rid of any bad juju. While we started out initially as more of a general auto repair shop, Darwin has always had a passion for fixing foreign cars and his goal was to eventually specialize primarily in European and import auto repair and maintenance. Some of the first foreign vehicles we worked on in the old shop were a 1994 Volkswagen Corrado, a 1992 Mercedes-Benz 190e, a 1999 BMW 325i, a 1987 Porsche 911... we gained more and more customers who drove foreign cars, mostly due to word-of-mouth referrals. Today, we are in a new location at: 2626 University Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN 55418. We have dealer-level tools and software and specialize in the repair and maintenance of: BMW, MINI, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover, Jaguar, Volvo, Volkswagen, Audi, Lexus, Saab and Porsche. We have competitive pricing and offer exceptional value with a 36 month/ 36,000 mile nationwide limited warranty. We provide a comfortable waiting area, Wi-Fi service, local shuttle service, vehicle pick-up and delivery (by request), and wash your vehicle when weather permits. Co-owners Darwin and Jennifer Sinche want to provide top-notch European auto repair and maintenance to customers, while giving you the personal attention and reasonable prices of an independent shop. Call today to get on the schedule: 612-588-3305.
