Malek and MRF Engineering

Matthew_M3 · 10-10-2022, 03:02 PM

Many of you know who Malek and MRF Engineering are. He's been around awhile, a mystical figure who makes xpipes out of unobtanium and used rod bearings. I also hear that they double as chandeliers and work best when used with Vegan fuel.

All jokes aside, Maleks a great guy who knows his shit. Been taking my car to him for awhile and he never gives me the runaround and shoots me straight. No B.S., no shenanigans. You know who's working on your car when you take it to him. It's a two man show there, just him and his dad. Both are great guys. Shop is clean and organized. The only downside is that he can be a pain to get ahold of at times but I understand that he's pretty busy, so some persistence is necessary.

Call him a M3 master mechanic or just another reputable repair shop, he knows his shit and I will happily continue to use his services when I need to. There's a reason that myself and others give him the Master M3 mechanic moniker.

Good to hear. I just bought a car from soCal and the previous owner had RBs and the DCT flush performed at his shop

He's a great guy and very knowledgeable about the E9X chassis. I wouldn't hesitate to reach out when you need something or want some insight

Manda used to get a lot of her M3 work done by Malek. Here she is checking out Malek's M3.

That's great, but I think the communication may be the issue here. I've called, left a message, and emailed and have received no response yet. I know he's a 1 (or 2) man show, but it feels like I'm trying to contact the president or something.

He can be tough to get a hold of. I've had good luck reaching him by texting the main number.

can attest, Malek is the man. He has done all the major work on my M3 for the past 6 years. While it's a Bitch and a half to get the car down on a weekday and take the train back to LA it's always worth it. He's found numerous mistakes made by other carless shops that have could have compromised safety. The car is dialed in and running strong at 125k miles..
