I came to them with overheating issues on my 335i, and they did a great job explaining the problem. They were respectful and helpful and not at all condescending. A great place to take your car as a woman who loves BMWs!

We have used Schatz & Krum for about 10 yrs and have always been totally satisfied with their work and prices. If your BMW is out of warranty and you don't like paying the high dealer prices, I highly recommend them. We have never had an issue with them or any damage done to our car.

You guys are awesome! I brought Lily my 2005 BMW 325i e46 in. I had previously called and told them over the phone that the car had, slowly began to have a squealing sound. But the other day when I started it, it sounded terrible screeching like crazy. I quickly called around to the dealerships who were nothing but rude and no help. I decided to call Shatz and Krum who worked on the car previously with the last owner. I described the problem and they even listened over the phone, they knew exactly what it was and how much it... read more

There is no shop better than Schatz & Krum, significantly better than the BMW dealer in quality, skill, price and service. Where else would the owner of a large shop personally drive to you when your car is ready to be picked up? That just happened yesterday. Like many, I have had an inherent mistrust of mechanics in general, but even on my very first visit I could tell that Stuart and his team were different. Fifteen years later, I can tell you that Schatz & Krum have never once disappointed me. Always fair and looking for ... read more

The only reason why I know about this place is because my brother used to be a mechanic for them .. but once i got the word around to my fellow Euro car owners, they always said "yeahh, i heard about that place! so they're good, huh??" The reason why they're so good is because Stuart (the head honcho over there) used to BUILD racing cars and has the skills of a mastermind, seriously .. my first car was a 1986 BMW 528e and this shop was 1 of 2 shops that could ever figure out what was wrong with my car and fix it RIGHT. the 2... read more

This is by far the number 1 bmw repair shop in Sacramento and, probably, northern California. I have taken my 1989 bmw 525i there for over 9 years and they have consistently been the lowest price shop plus they are more knowledgeable than the dealer on most items. I have had some horrendous experience with other repair shops in the past, so I know how hard it is to find a good, honest mechanic. This is the place. In fact, I recently purchase a 2003 745i in part because I knew that when the warranty runs out I will need a goo... read more

Thanks for bringing the joy back to driving my MINI!! I recently took my 2006 MINI cooper in to have a noise issue looked at. turns out the transmission had a bad bearing (covered under extended warranty) while they were in the process of doing the transmission I had them do all other recommended work while the transmission was out. new clutch, water pump, rear main seal...... Anyway since the transmission was covered the additional work was performed at an extremely reasonable price since most of it had to be removed anyway... read more

brought my Porsche 911 C4S in to have it lowered. They did a great job with competitive pricing. It rides and looks fantastic. The owner and crew are very friendly. I would not hesitate to refer to anyone.

Owner is outstanding and the staff is very skilled at what they do. Very professional and highly recommended. I would trust them with not only auto repair but they also do first class work on auto body repair. Thank you Schatz & Krum.
