BCI Motor Works

WOW!!! I thought I knew a good businessman when I met one, but Cina is incredible. He’s very upfront with the work that needs to be done. I chose to not have some of the cosmetic work done just yet, but he did some of it anyway, just to make it look a little better before I get it all done right. The customer service here is top notch!
I will ABSOLUTELY be bringing my Bimmer back!

Outstanding dependability and service! Cina and his crew have an honest and professional repair company. We can always count on them for good advice and direction when we need it. My car runs better now than it ever has… Thanks to the eagle eye and fine tuning of BCI. I strongly recommend them and encourage you to give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!

Came here a few weeks ago after reading all the positive Unilocal reviews and I must say I wasn’t disappointed at all. Cina was easy to deal with and a super nice and knowledgeable guy. Brought in my wife’s 08 535i for a front brake job with pads, rotors and sensors and the price could not be beat. Sometimes you believe you get what you pay for, but in this case, I got all that i expected and then some for the cheapest price possible. The job was done super quick and professionally and have not had any issues since.
Few weeks pass and a light comes on in the car and find out its a busted tail light bulb. Call up Cina and he says come on down and he replaces the bulb by himself in no time for free. Wouldn’t take any money for it. If you own a BMW (or any other car that they work on), I highly recommend going here for anything and everything. I was thinking of selling the car as the repair rates and parts are ridiculous, but now I’m inclined to keep it as I found myself an honest and very reasonable mechanic. 5 stars is not enough for this place!

WOW ! THE CAR GODS WERE WATCHING OVER ME ! THEY LED ME TO Cina and BCI Motor Works ! I Live on the Westside (MDR) & am a Very NEW «BMW» Owner… Needed Help w/​2000 528i recently Purchased…(So Many Gizmos !) Drove a 2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo before the BMW… Was in the S.F. Valley (about 23 Miles from the Marina) for Husband’s Kaiser Doctor’s Appt and Happened to Pop in and Ask «Can you Help Me? I know Nothing about this BMW? Where is This? What Is That ?» Cina, the Owner — Greeted me with a Warm Smile and Immediately Put my «Car Confusion» To Rest ! He showed Me All Equipment (Buttons etal) Seems the A/​C needed Blower Parts — Quoted $ 200 Clams — I said «Yes» (Travel to Palm Springs Area Often) Need A/​C — Cina ordered the part — I went back today, Friday — Christian and the Lads Fixed the A/​C Purr-​fectly and Ta dah ! It was the $ 200 Clams Quoted ! Yay ! So, I have a Very Groovy BMW and a Fantastic Place for Service & Repairs !
2000 528i Is at 99,000 Miles — With Cina & BCI On My Side — Plan to take it to 200,000 Miles
Thank You… Cina & Christian and Entire Crew ! XXX 000

Great service and price! Cina is extremely knowledgeable, polite and explained everything that needed to be done to my car with no pressure to do more than I could afford. I called in the morning and brought my car in the afternoon. My battery died and Auto Club came out to start it and the service guy told me that BCI Motor Works is where I should take my car.

Cina and the guys over at the BMW Clinic are BY FAR the best. Their customer service above and beyond what I’ve ever experienced.
I initially brought my car to another shop down the street… They came up with a whole slew of «problems» my car had and gave a a print out of how much it would be to get my car back in tiptop shape. When I brought my car to BMW Clinic, and had Cina look at my car, I found out that I had been misdiagnosed by the other company.
If I wouldn’t have come to Cina I would have been completely ripped off (probably because I’m a young female who doesn’t know anything about cars) .
Thankfully I brought my car to the BMW Clinic.
They have earned a customer for life. Not only will I bring my car (and all my future cars) to the BMW Clinic but I’m going to send everyone I know their way.
Seriously I can’t say enough about them!!!
THANK YOU CINA!!!

Fast, fair, and easy — BCI did the job quickly and with such courtesy that I intend to bring my 2006 BMW 325i back here the next time anything goes wrong. Al the owner is great to work with!

I can not say enough how great of service and professionalism they provide and how honest they are.
I have been their customer for my BMW 530i 2004 which if you take it to dealer, I am sure most everyone have experience with dealership!
I am so grateful that I have found this service clinic my brother in law who is in car business referred me.
They are the best.

We needed to locate a good BMW mechanic to take our 530i for a brake job in the Woodland Hills area.
Unlike some other shops that I called, Cina was very polite and professional. He listened to all the issues needing repair on my BMW and understood that I would only be fixing one of the items for now, my brakes.
The final cost was about right for OEM Pads/​Rotors/​Sensor cables. There was no haggling or trying to make me spend more money on unnecessary repairs.
Thank you Cina and the BMW Clinic Mechanics for a great brake job.

Alright so be prepared for what I’m about to say that shouldn’t really go together lol… honest mechanics haha, but really this is what this place is about. Owning a BMW that’s no longer in warranty can be stressful and can have you spending so much money. I would definitely recommend this place as Cina and Al are great owners and really know their stuff when it comes to BMW cars.
They are very upfront with what your car needs and it’s very hard to find someone that you’re able to trust. They don’t pressure you at all and that’s such a very big plus for me.
Overall great prices compared to what you pay at the dealer and very honest people. Great job Cina and Al! You guys have me as a customer for as long as I have my BMW or any BMW for that matter.
Oh and on a side note, I took my car in there to get the brakes done and me thinking I would have to pay for brake pads, rotors, and sensors as what the dealer told me. But all I really need was just new brake pads and sensors. Thanks again guys for your awesome work!

Initially I was impressed with this place, but that didn’t last long. It took 4 days of them having my car to even get a quote for all the work needed. Then when I got it, it was for over $ 3000 of work — NONE of it was actually needed!
I was told I needed new rotors, brakes and brake pads, despite none of my sensors telling me this. I took my car to a few other places for a second opinion and was told I have 40% left on the front and 60% on the rear. The cost for all this unnecessary work totaled $ 500 more than the other shops quoted, in over 10,000 miles when the work does need doing
My control arm bushings are also fine, something I was quoted over $ 300 for at BMW clinic.
I found an extremely reliable shop, a little out of the way, but saved over $ 3000!
I cannot recommend this shop in any sense. Don’t be fooled — go get a second opinion, and watch their prices, they’re heavily padded!

CINA is the man!
I can not stress how trustworthy this place is. I had ran over a nail and originally took it to Sears tire shop because I thought it was just a quick patch. Sears had said I would have to buy a new tire and couldn’t patch it because it was a run-​flat tire. I quickly called BMW Clinic and Cina said he would take a look at it. I had my brother bring my car to the shop and they removed the nail and notified my brother that the nail didn’t puncture the tire. I’m beyond impressed with the service both by Cina and Al. THANK YOU!

Before coming here, I shopped around on the phone and these guys sounded the nicest/​most professional and their quote was amongst the fairest.
Got the battery replaced here today and Al is just as nice in person as he was on the phone. I came early in the morning and the car was ready within 2 hours, which was quicker than promised.
Al treated me like a VIP and was more than happy to answer any questions this noob had. Because it was busy, Al forgot a few things that he was supposed to give me and totally acknowledged his oversight when I pointed them out, and didn’t argue with the customer. I appreciated this very much.
We’ll likely bring our car here to be serviced from now on. Customer service at its best!

What can I say. I have had my BMW serviced here three times now. They never disappoint. CAR AND CUSTOMER SERVICE IS GREAT. Cina is very outgoing and professional. I never feel nervous when dropping my car off here. The price that he gives over the phone is pretty much what you pay at the time of your transaction. No hidden fees or agendas. I love this place and hope to continue being a patron here.

Keeps my car nice and running great. Smile on my face all the time for that purpose. Plus $$$ saved. Can’t beat that.
This clinic rocks :)
