Really worked hard on short notice to solve my engine problem on my 78 VW bus. After quickly getting into the problem, Wes and his efficient crew found my broken timing gear on the cam shaft and then completely rebuilt the engine since it needed it. He often called me back as we kept track of the parts acquisitions and more. I sure am glad to have found an excellent VW repair shop in Western North Carolina. Thanks Wes.

Love these folks. Theyve been my mechanics for 4 yrs now because of their honesty, kindness and great work they do. They also take time to show me things on my car and explain them to me. No secrets. Also, I had an old 82 Mercedes, and Nathan is one of the few mechanics here in Asheville that knows how to work on those cars.

Really great folks here. I have had numerous good experiences here since moving to Asheville. Wes even gave me a ride back home once when I was going to call a Lyft. Great mechanics too!

Amazing customer service. Didnt even want to charge me to diagnose my cars probs so I had to force money their way for their time. If u need any work on german/vw vehicles go here! I highly recommend.

Wes was great. He was able to figure out an issue on our ‘85 Westy that we’ve been chasing for a couple of months. This guy knows Vanagons. Thank you, Wes. Was a pleasure dealing with you.

Wes and his staff were responsive and friendly and the parts and service were reasonably priced. Replaced pads and rotors on my 2017 Passat. Straight shooters and no BS or up-selling. Half the price of Harmony and a lot quicker. Thanks!

Thanks Wes. The bus is running smooth and quiet. The new tires and suspension made a huge difference. We will be back for any future work.

Westy has had my 79 beetle convertible since may 2018. Took it in for a new gas line and tune up. They still have it.

Best VW mechanic in the Asheville area. I brought my current car by here before I bought it. Ive since moved away, but whenever Im back in town, I always swing by for everything small or large.

Wes is the best! He is honest, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and charges a fair price. He has saved me hundreds of dollars over the Toyota dealership. I am so grateful for Wes! Highest recommendation.

I live in Georgia and have a Vanagon. Vanagons are a WONDERFUL vehicle that break! Unfortunately not many service facilities fully understand the mechanics and quirkiness of these vehicles. Ive had to resort to purchasing the Bentley Service manual to do a lot of of the work and repairs on my vehicle by myself. Many times I do not have the expertise or correct tools to do the work. My automatic transmission failed a number of months ago and I decided to try to repair it myself. Unfortunately many of the components within the transmission are obsolete and are unavailable to someone who works on their own vehicles. I proceeded to repair the transmission anyway. After getting it all back together and driving it, my repair didnt last too long and failed. I knew I needed expert help but didnt know where to go. I looked through the VanAlert app on my phone to find Westy Motorwerks. To my surprise it was only 100 miles from my house. Wes and his team there are EXCEPTIONAL! He kept me posted on a regular basis as to the status of the repair. I was a little nervous when picking up the vehicle after the repairs, to drive it home because I had to drive through the mountains in an area where there was no cell service. I was concerned the van might fail in an area where I couldnt contact anyone. The van performed AMAZING! It ran and drove better than it ever has! It took the mountain passes in stride. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOP! They are fair and know older VWs. Thank you Wes and your team!

A few years back I meet the owner at another shop and heard he opened his own shop. I called and explained that my fuel injected 79 bus was running rough and the fumes were making me sick.We set an appointment and as soon as he found what was wrong it was fixed and now my Bus runs great!!The parts that were good he left alone and only did what was necessary, saving lots of money.I got a follow up call from the owner making sure my Bus was running good.It was worth it for me to make the trip!

Wes did a fantastic job, in a timely manner. He more often than not was the one calling me with updates and progress. And at the end of the day; his prices are super reasonable. Especially for top quality parts.Highly recommend this shop for any one. I have a vw turbo diesel, which is not always the easiest to work on, but Wes handled it like a pro!

My Food truck broke down and not only were they able to find me a tow truck last minute on a Sunday, but also at a discounted rate. The truck was towed to the shop and i had a phone call the next day letting me know what the problem was. They took care of it and recommended a few other small repairs that were more for preventative maintenance. By doing that, they totally proved that they really care and are conscientious guys that go the extra mile. I wont take my vehicles any where else from this point forward. Very knowledgable, affordable and just all around good people. Thanks guys!

Was having issues no one ever heard of with my 98 gti. Dealers wouldnt touch it. I find this shop on google, and wes tells me a part to try, he says this may be your problem, sure enough. Runs like new now, even better to know that a vw specialist is only a few hours up the road. If I ever need in shop service done to her I will be making the trip to let these guys take care of it, first class shop with great people
