BMW Specialist - A1 Repair and Towing in
Danville (VA)

I stopped by A1 Repair today with a latch problem on the back door of my Lexus and Fred, the owner took a look at it and fixed it at no charge. He is very knowledgeable and professional and if you have a BMW, this is the place to go!

Best mini cooper service experience we’ve ever had. A/c was out and part was ordered and repaired quickly, thanks again for the quick turnaround.

One of the best experiences I've had with a repair service. Had a broken engine mount and they were able to show me the problem and talk me through the repair process and options. I just felt confident that the repair is going to be done right which I hadn't been the case for several other repair shops I've used in the area.

He started to work on my vehicle as soon as I arrived. He completed my work very quickly and had me ready to go in no time. He also suggested other items my vehicle needed but didn’t pressure me to do them now. I was very satisfied with my repairs and highly recommend him.

Fast, Friendly, Fantastic!!! The best service, and the friendliest people in town. Very knowledgeable and trustworthy. Finally, a mechanic I feel I can trust to ensure my vehicle is safe and in top shape, without costing an arm and leg. Highly recommend A1 Repair and Towing. (Awesome Sauce!!!!)

Needed to find a competent place to complete maintenance on BMW and Mini Cooper. Danville doesn’t seem to have any folks that can work on BMW products. Closest place is Greensboro. What a lifesaver. Absolutely best. Customer service ever. Willing to go above and beyond in getting my vehicles looked at. Very honest and professional. Highly recommend.

Great experience. Only shop in town that does bmw/mini cooper. Gives good advice and knowledge on parts and services for vehicles. Can recommend if you have a BMW/mini in the pittsylvania county area

Great service, honest, and awesome pricing! Very knowledgeable, helpful, and trustworthy. I’ve taken both my BMW and my Honda for service and left happy every time.

BMW Specialist - A1 Repair and Towing performed excellent work on my BMW in a very timely manner and is very knowledgeable about these vehicles. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Owner/Mechanic is very knowledgeable and precise with his work that he performs. He explains everything in detail so that the customer understands. Very friendly, honest and reasonable. I recommend him for all vehicles especially BMW

Fred does excellent work within a timely manner. Fred fixed my coolant leak that I had on my BMW, and I would recommend him to anyone that has a BMW that needs repairs don’t to it. Fred is very respectful, and he goes out of his way to make sure that his customers is taking care of.

Excellent diagnostic and mechanical services provided. Fair and honest pricing. I highly recomend A1 Repair for all your BMW service needs. I depend on their friendly service.

I 100% trust "BMW Specialist - A1 Repair and Towing" with any of the complex BMW diagnostics & repair and with routine maintenance of my prized Z4! When I purchased my Z4 in 2021, I had the mindset that I needed to take it to a BMW dealership for any concerns, etc. -- only to end up with more problems and diminished performance. After 2 years and thousands of $$$ in ineffective BMW dealership service, I decided to try "BMW Specialist - A1 Repair and Towing" at the recommendation of my son -- who had used BMW Specialist - A1 Repair and Towing for 2 of his own BMW's. Now, I don't want ANY other mechanic touching my "baby girl" (Z4)! "BMW Specialist - A1 Repair and Towing" is THE ONLY BMW mechanic to truly trust in South Central Virginia! Take it from one who learned the HARD way -- driving up to 1.5 hours away to dealerships -- thinking I was doing what's best for my Z4!

I went to the shop on the word of a good friend. He said the owner was the best . He was honest , dependable and a Man of his word and would save me money where he could. He was everything my friend said he was and more. My car was a puzzle everything was gutted out of it. No wiring nothing. I brought it there from. another shop . The Guy took it apart and left it and told me to come get it. Now my car is like brand new. I would recommend him to everybody. He is at the top. He really is the best.

This is my go to place for BMW repairs. I have probably been going to Fred for about the last 5 years. I have found him to fair, honest, and trustworthy. Not only that but he has saved me money on some major repairs. Highly recommend .

No experience yet but as I read the reviews of this person who specializes in bMW repairs, it sounds as if this is a great place to take my vehicle!!! ¡¡My most recent experience with another owner by the name of Fred; he is a true knowledgeable professional certified serviceman for bMWs. I took my X3 to his shop, left it in his hands and as he checked to be sure that the problem WAS the problem but not so for he found NOTHING wrong with the vehicle and he didn't charge much for the service. YES, I WILL return to his repair shop it if anything else is needed!!

Fred did a wonderful job on diagnosis of an error which was unique and scary. We came here to get a fix on X3 which had stop twice at stop light when it was in D mode, got switch to P. Ended up changing battery 👍 Service was super, definitely coming back for next oil change.

I just want to express my gratitude for Fred!! I was traveling from VA to GA and had an unexpected car trouble. I had called nearby repair shops and he was the only one that could take me right away. I had to get my car towed to his shop and he was able to get everything handled for me in a timely matter, he explained what needed to be done and was very thorough in the work he did on my car. I can’t express enough how he was a honest mechanic and had great customer service throughout it all. A true life saver, THANK YOU THANK YOU again Fred!! Highly recommend this repair shop!!

I bought my first BMW a couple of months ago. I took it to A1 to have my oil changed and the owner (Fred) went above and beyond. Not only did he change my oil but also (at no extra charge) looked over the entire vehicle to make sure it was in good running condition. He let me know what is wrong and the potential of problems to come. He (Fred) took care of my BMW was very professional and extremely knowledgeable. Got the job done right and in a timely fashion. I am extremely happy with my car and the service provided at A1 and I will not have my BMW serviced by any other. Thanks Again Fred.

Fred is absolutely incredible, his knowledge about BMW's, their quirks for certain years, things to avoid when looking at certain models and his overall workman ship is very impressive. He communicated with his customers very well and doesn't cut corners as he had the opportunity to do that many times with repairing my vehicle but he is a man of integrity and honor who refuses to do the wrong thing in his business and for his customers. I would trust this man with any/ every BMW I purchase in the future and I would HIGHLY recommend you have your vehicles looked at by him before purchasing. Hes also just an overall great guy?

The owner is a great guy. My X3 service engine light came on and I immediately took it to him, dropped it off and talked with him for a bit. He called me 4 hours laters with the problem fixed. He installed a new coil and fixed other things and the car runs great now. If you have any concerns regarding BMW this place is the place to go! Fast, professional, hard working and great prices.

I have been very pleased with my service every time I have taken my X1 for maintenance and repair. Fred is very knowledgeable and professional with his business practices. I feel very confident in his recommendations and I never feel like he wants to do extra but treats everyone like he would like to be treated. His prices are very reasonable. Because there is not another BMW service center near me, if not for Fred I would probably have traded my BMW in .

Very positive experience. Very friendly people. Certified BMW technician. Honest technician you can trust! We have been taking our 5 Series to A1 Repair for regularly maintenance. Will continue to do business with them. Highly recommend!

Fred is absolutely magnificent. He managed to fit my Z4 in for a desperately needed parking brake adjustment. No easy task. Did a great job at a VERY reasonable cost. I wouldn’t consider taking my BMW’s anywhere else. A real treasure to have an honest, knowledgeable and friendly specialist in Southside Virginia. Trust Fred for excellent service.

I first took my BMW to A1 for some much needed attention. Fred did a very professional and superb job at a very fair and reasonable rate. My next visit was equally as impressive. He explained everything that was wrong and why, what needed to be done and why, how much it would cost, and advised me on issues that I may encounter in the future. His undeniable expertise and impeccable customer service puts him far above any experience I’ve ever had at any of the large BMW dealerships. Truly A1, the name says it all. A five star rating is simply not enough. He deserves 10 stars... and a cookie.

I highly recommend A1 Repair and Towing for their expert knowledge of BMW's and their exceptional customer service. The owner thoroughly communicated with me during the repair of my vehicle and coordinated with other professionals as needed to ensure I received my vehicle timely, and that all repairs were completed efficiently. If one ever needs repairs or towing services, I guarantee that A1 Repair and Towing will provide you exceptional service as well.

Very trustworthy brought my BMW in for a bad oil leak car was fixed right performs better than what it has ever perform I love it. I recommended my friend to bring his car in for service was excellent car was fixed right the first time. Why drive to Greensboro to get a half job done when you could stay local.
