Frequently Asked Questions

How often does a Volkswagen need an oil change? +

Most modern Volkswagen models require synthetic oil changes every 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. However, severe driving conditions or turbo models may benefit from 5,000 to 7,500-mile intervals.

What is a DSG transmission service and why is it required? +

A DSG (Direct-Shift Gearbox) is a dual-clutch transmission that requires fresh fluid and a new filter every 40,000 miles to clear out worn clutch material and keep hydraulic controls working smoothly.

Do you use genuine original equipment parts for VW repairs? +

Yes, we utilize OEM and high-quality European spec replacement parts along with VW-approved fluids to maintain factory specifications and keep your vehicle running reliably.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an issue with my DME which needed to be updated on my bmw and despite my tight schedule and budget these guys had me in and out even with my DME being partly corrupted and needing some rewriting, had it all fixed and taken care of in a bit less than 2 hours, their bmw tech was extremely helpful and communicated through the entire service of the vehicle. Overall great experience and wouldn't hesitate to get work done here

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been going to Ray’s Imports for quite some time now and I always have a great experience. Knowledgeable staff that actually care about creating a positive experience. I’ve had every service or repair done here since another shop told me my car was a goner and here we are ~50k miles later still chugging. Ray’s even keeps me up to date on future expected repairs and maintenance as per the manual. Excellent work!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Never in a million years thought that I'd fall in love with a mechanic shop, but here we are! So here's the deal with these guys: they may be pricier because their mechanics are SPECIALISTS  with imports (which means they know what's going on with YOUR CAR... the more complex makes), but they are the most HONEST, considerate, and kind mechanic shop out there. The customer service (JORDAN!) has single-handedly restored my faith in humanity. If you drive an import- these are the guys to bring it to.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Switched to Rays after another shop in town let me down. Rays had me in the door, diagnosed, and quoted within the same day. They were transparent about the services needed and the costs of repair. They were understanding of my situation and willing to work with me. Will be using them moving forward.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Positive experience overall. Nice guys, fair price. Had cam/crank seals replaced and a timing job done on my JDM car. Took a few weeks since we ran into issues waiting on parts or getting the wrong one, but that’s expected with a nearly 30 year old engine 🤷🏻‍♂️

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ray’s Imports and staff ARE THE BEST!! I have trusted them to do all my vehicle repairs for 11 years & I have NEVER had an issue with prices or them actually doing the repairs I need! They just replaced my brake lines & the price was very reasonable! Repair shops use to take advantage of me & I never have to be concerned with Ray’s Imports over charging me, they simply inform me of what I need & not trying to make money off of my repairs.

Shout out to Jordan! He explained every thing that was going on & sent pictures & the repairs were promptly completed! His personality is contagious & always very respectful & patient!! I recommend Ray’s Imports for ALL of your car needs!!  THANKS AGAIN!! My brakes are PERFECT!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just got off the phone with Jordan to discuss a PPI. They couldn't get me in right away, but went the extra mile to make some recommendations and talk me through the local mechanic scene. They seem very honest, trustworthy and willing to do the right thing. Thank you, Jordan.
