    Ricardo found that my transmission had been leaking earlier this year and recommended that I get the full service done on it considering it's a '12 BMW 528i. We went ahead and got it done and were pleased with his professionalism and quality of work. I'm now coming back to Ricardo and having him change the battery on my car as I've found him to offer excellent service (always OEM parts) and prices. I definitely plan on bringing our other cars to Ricardo for servicing as well as he's a certified technician by BMW and is always helping us out. If you're looking for a better and cheaper alternative than the dealership, Ricardo and MB Motorworks is certainly worth checking out.

    I have a 2009 BMW 328i. It didn’t pass the smog check so I brought my car to Mission Bell Motorworks to fix the problem. Rick serviced my car. He diagnosed and did the repairing just in two days which was amazing. Then I retook the smog check and my car passed it without any problems. I was satisfied and impressed by his professionalism and high-efficiency.

    Rick has serviced and continues to service my F10 2013 5 Series. He is always far less then any BMW dealer or certified BMW techs! He is very friendly & flexible. He has been able to squeeze me in 2 times already & went the extra mile to get me out in time! I really appreciate that. I am also grateful and extremely satisfied that he has always done a quick and excellent job. I highly recommend Mission Bell Motorworks to anyone looking for reliable and efficient car maintenance. Rick gives you the confidence in his work and displays a knowledge about repairs that you know your car is in good hands. Also the fair prices for the work he does and letting you know up front and no hassle pricing makes him trustworthy. I trust my vehicle with Rick 7 days a week and twice on a sunday.

    Have been going to Ricardo and Mission Bell Motorworks since I purchased my BMW (2017). He has always provided top quality work , at a reasonable price. He doesn't stick you with unnecessary work, just what is needed to keep maintain my cars performance.

    Had service done here on my BMW and it was great. Rick communicated well with what they were doing to my vehicle and showed me the breakdown on prices. I would recommend Mission Bell Motorworks for whatever you need to do to your car!!

    Took my BMW into Mission Bell, got my halo light replaced and my trunk fixed, wouldn't open using buttons inside cabin or remote. They found the issue same day and were able to fix it.

    I have a 2007 BMW 750li. This Sunday morning the driver side window stopped working, my friend referred Mission Bell Motorworks. I called them and made an appointment, they fixed my BMW window in about 90 minutes on the same day. Their mechanic Ricardo was nice, professional, and the price was reasonable. Shop is clean and comfortable to wait in.

    I was looking around on Yelp to get the brake fluid change on a 2013 BMW 328i. I saw Mission Bell Motorworks close to me with many great reviews. I called to make an appointment and they were ready for me as soon and I pulled up. Not only did they provide great service, but it was also pretty fast. Clean and professional working environment and they use only Genuine BMW parts and fluids. Also, not only did they take care of my service, but they even fixed my broken cigarette lighter for no extra charge. I will definitely be coming back for future oil changes and service.

    I own a 2008 BMW 750li and had a light come on my dash. We took it to Mission Bell Motorworks and they found it was my DSC control unit. It only took them a few days to fix it and since then I haven't had any problems. Glad I found this place!

    I am the proud owner of a 2005 BMW X5 3.0, which i purchased from the original owner approx. 3 months ago. I took it to the dealership and spent way more than i would like to on an oil leak. Last week my vehicle would not start so instead of heading to the dealership my husband researched around online and found Mission Bell Motorworks in Riverside. He noticed they were BMW certified and offer their services for the fraction of the cost of the BMW dealership. We decided to go ahead and try them out and had my vehicle towed there on a Saturday and they had a lock box to drop the key in so they could start on my vehicle first thing Monday morning. I received a call Monday in the afternoon and they explained to me I needed to replace the fuel pump. They were very attentive to my questions and concerns and on top of everything my car was finished the next day on Tuesday in the afternoon and i only paid a third of what i would have spent at the dealer. Mission Bell Motorworks went above and beyond my expectations and for that i am thankful and will continue bringing my vehicle there should i have more problems later down the line. I most definitely would recommend Mission Bell Motorworks to others. We were looking for a fair and honest mechanic and in Mission Bell Motorworks we have found him!

    Brought in my 2000 BMW 328is for suspension work and Ric did a great job and even hooked me up with 4 bolts for free. Very knowledgeable and knows Bimmers. Highly recommend Mission Bell Motorworks.

    Great service! I was looking for someone I could trust with my BMW. Like most people, I've had bad experiences with mechanics in the past. I'm happy to say Ricardo at Mission Bell Motorworks is knowledgeable and helpful and repaired my oil filter housing fast and inexpensively. I highly recommend him to other BMW owners.

    I have a 2015 BMW 428i that was involved in a accident. I have a check engine light come up afterwards. I didn't know what to do. So I stopped by Mission Bell Motorworks and they were nice enough to get the code reading for me. I will definitely be coming back here for all my BMW services and work. Thank You for fixing the issue!

    Mission Bell Motorworks is the place to go for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, the professionalism is unparalleled. They ensure that you are aware of all the possible options for a particular service. I went in for an oil change and was told of the different oil tiers that can go into the engine. The people at this place know what they are doing and can perform dealer quality work for a fraction of the price. The lobby area is also nice because of the wifi, tv, and reading material. Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend this place for anyone that wants a professional to look at your vehicle.

    Ricardo provided great service, thoroughly explaining what he did to my BMW and informing me of other issues that would need addressing. A couple of days ago my car started alerting me of the need for service and I didn't hesitate in contacting Mission Bell Motorworks to set up an appointment as I know they will provide great service at a fair price.

    If you are looking for superior service for your BMW, I highly recommend Mission Bell Motorworks. Ricardo will give you honest information so you can make the right decision regarding your cars service needs. He is easy to contact and is always willing and ready to help. Give him a call you won't be sorry you did.

    I came in for an oil leak and needed a new oil filter housing unit as well as a valve cover gasket but the problem was fixed quickly. Rick also offered great shuttle services and went above and beyond for his customers. The best auto shop in the Riverside area for BMWs and the pricing was competitive. He also said he would clean up the split oil in the engine area for no extra charge which was a nice bonus.

    Overall, I am happy with the services provided by Mission Bell Motorworks.

    I found this shop through Yelp, which had good reviews and was also near by my house. The owner, Ricardo help me brake down what was needed to be fix in order for my car to run smoothly again, which is BMW 530i. I felt comfortable, and he didn't pressure me into fixing parts that didn't needed to be fix. After we discussed about my car, he took his time and showed me his diplomas and previous shops he worked at BMW. The end result was fantastic the car runs perfect because of him. So for any one that is looking for a honest automotive shop, and genuine BMW mechanic come down to Mission Bell Motorworks!

    I highly recommend Mission Bell Motorworks to anyone in the inland empire. The honesty and high level of integrity that Ricardo demonstrated in the initial conversation about my 2006 325i BMW is like no other. I came in because I was having battery problems, Ricardo put me at ease. He not only inspected my battery, but he did a mini inspection on my car. He took the time to show me, other visible repairs that need to be done. I really appreciate a Repair shop that not only cares about making money, but really cares about it's customers best interest. If you are looking for a BMW repair shop that will get the job done and truly cares about your best interest, this is the place to come. You will not be disappointed!

    This place is nothing short of amazing! Took my E90 in for an oil pan gasket leak and I was not disappointed. I was super close to taking my car to a BMW dealership to get the repair done but after reading all of Mission Bell Motorwork's reviews and speaking to Ricardo multiple times over the phone, his shop won me over. He is a very knowledgeable and persistent person which led me to believe he was going to deliver quality work. And that is exactly what he did. Ricardo has a great reputation- an average 5 star rating across the board, and it is well earned. His customer service is great and you can tell that he's passionate about what he does-which is something I highly respect. His prices are great and he over delivers! What more could you want? Extremely appreciative of Ricardo, I'll definitely come back to him for ANY work I need done on my BMW.

    Best auto shop for your Bimmer! Ricardo is the professional mechanics for German cars. Did an oil change here for my z4, they put in all original BMW oil and oil filter. Comfy place to wait during the oil change. Will keep coming back to Mission Bell Motorworks for BMW service!
