Urabus - Buena Vista, Colorado

John has been working on my vehicles for nearly 5 years. I never take my car anywhere else. He is the first person I refer friends and family to with confidence. He is very honest and extremely knowledgeable, making him the most efficient mechanic I know. His prices are more than fair for the outstanding quality of work. Most recently, he did a suspension overhaul on my 2001 vw golf. He gives us the upfront part costs and estimates how much time it should take him so we at least have a ballpark idea of cost. We dropped the car off and it was ready the next day. Also, we told him the car sounded like it had an exhaust leak and when we picked it up he told us exactly what it was so we could decide to fix it or not with no pressure to schedule another appointment. John has been a lifesaver for our finances in keeping my Golf running. I could have easily spent 5 times as much with other mechanics and dealers, not to mention been without a car for weeks instead of just days. I would be scared to take my cars anywhere else. You will be pleased with his work!

Urabus is your one(and only)stop shop for everything VW Vanagon!! ⚡️I’m so happy that i was referred to John at Urabus. John was able to squeeze me in even though he is super booked out. He diagnosed the problem with ease, ordered some parts and had me on the road back to Texas. My van finally drives the way i have always wanted it too!! If you are considering an engine swap or an upgrade of any kind, Urabus is the place to get it done and done right!

Johnny is the man! As we rolled into Buena Vista in our 87 Westy, we heard a noise from the right rear. We swung by Urabus and Johnny helped us diagnose the problem, fit us quickly into his schedule, and we were on our way with a new wheel bearing.

Grateful for his help and ability to fit us in! Great dude to work with!

Johnny is such an amazing dude. We came to him in a bit of an emergency and not only did he do great work to our Vanagon, but he also took us in and gave us a place to hang out while the work was being done. Can't say enough great things about John and his garage. 5 stars to Nitro the dog as well.

I took my Jetta to John after a pretty nasty slide on some ice last winter. He was able to diagnose what was going on within a day, was upfront and clear about what it would need to get back in working order, and then completed exactly the work we agreed upon in a timely manner. John treats the vehicles he works on with the same care and respect he shows his customers, Buschmann's Autowerks is the only shop I would ever recommend to anyone with a VW who needs any scope of work done on their vehicle.

I've known John for over a year. He is extremely trustworthy and reliable. In the past, I've always been very cautious of auto repair shops for fear I would be taken advantage of since I'm not extremely knowledge with cars. However, John never made me feel that way. He always explains the problem thoroughly, as well as all of the options so my car can be fixed. When I ask dumb questions, he treats me with respect. Best of all, his prices are affordable. I now take all of our cars to John for service; my wife's Honda Civic; my Chevy Traverse; and our family VW Bus. I highly recommend John to anyone needing help and/or service with their vehicle. He will treat you right and help you save money.

John is absolutely wonderful to work with. He is a wizard at diagnosis. We recently purchased an 87 Vanagon that needed a new alternator. John diagnosed the issue, ordered the part and got it installed super quickly. You can tell he is really passionate about VWs and it comes through in his work.

I was looking for an alternative to the VW dealership for mechanical repairs on my 2006 Jetta TDI. After reading about Buschmann's, I decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did. John was super friendly and helpful. He got my car in for basic maintenance just a couple days after I called. During the repairs, John had great communication. He let me know about something that needed to be done (which I had already assumed would be the case based on the condition my car was in) and gave me options, with prices and his recommendation (the least expensive!) I approved buying two tires. When my car was ready, I wasn't sure how I was going to pick it up and in the timeframe I needed, so John actually drove my car up to where I was! When he arrived he let me know that only 1 tire (rather than the 2 we originally thought) needed to be replaced. The service and honesty offered by John was refreshing. It looks like I found an amazing alternative to the dealership and Buschmann's will continue to receive my business!
