EurochArged Orlando worst shop in country must see

Update!! After tearing down Engine
We realized it had No Oil Baffle installed in my E55 Engine (picture shows what should have been) that Eurocharged Orlando installed
(Check your shop I bet my oil baffle is laying in your shop somewhere)

Akram Mathin are you serious?
How much more Evidence do I need to show you of the Incompetence and negligence work

Long post alert but anyone in southeast
Needs to see this
(Please look at all photos and videos)

Finally enjoying my car again after 16 months of EurochArged Orlando nightmare

They had pulled my engine in early October 2018 in my E55 after they installed long tubes/ice tank/ looped rail and a Dyno tune
(Said # 8 cylinder was low on compression)

Replacement Engine was from a stock CL55
He did a compressIon check prior engine trans starter was still intact to do so
All passed with Good compression oil had no metal in oil

He recommended that I purchase a new oil Pump since we had to switch out my oil pan
I did everything he recommended and suggested

So far I’ve paid EurochArged over $7000

He didn’t finish the car till mid February of this year
I drove the car around the block to gas station when I picked it up seemed ok trailered it home put 15-20 miles on it and oil is filled with small metal shavings and smoking out the exhaust on immediate start up Oil is gray in color with metal shavings (hard to see in photos)

When inspecting visible items on the car the next day
1 Bolt was snapped on the fuel rail
3 broken valve cover bolts
Transmission dipstick not even on
(Front bumper scratched in several spots)
Missing intake y clamps

Dropped the car back off at end of March
They did nothing to it for 4 months
They drained oil and sent it to blackstone for
Analysis EurochArged tried to say It was headgasket. No antifreeze in oil going by report back. They wouldn’t do a oil pressure test Nothing just strung me alone for months saying they will get to it and kept blaming headgasket

Finally found a engine from a running rear ended E55 with 52k from seller in Orlando and fellow AMG Enthusiast.He would install as well
Seemed like the best thing to do since EurochArged clearly wanted to wash hands and not care what happened. So i finally have the car towed out of EurochArged shop to have another engine installed. Car no longer ran at this point to pull in shop. (Still ran when I trailered it to EurochArged) After installing replacement engine car still wouldn’t start up,after spending countless hours figuring out issue. Realized the front sam and fuse box cover was left off car from Eurocharged and sat outside for 4 months frying ecu and front sam and shorting rear Sam Had to buy a front sam and ecu from his parts car( Tony at raceiq mirrored it for me) from Eurocharged negligence.

While going back to pickup my original engine and parts bringing to Akram/owner attention that his guys also left my front fuse box cover off and was sitting in passenger floorboard and how it ruined the front sam and Ecu and countless diagnostic hours he said he could give me a free Dyno run after another shop fixed the car Wow how generous of him
I’ll let the pictures and videos of workmanship do the talking

Finally broke down engine EurochArged installed
Loose sump pump screws nearly ready to fall out
Every cylinder has severe scoring
And the headgasket they said was bad here they are and perfect

Everyone beware of Eurocharged Orlando and akram shop and mechanic orhan is a absolute joke

Tag CEO of EurochArged Or

Every cylinder has severe scoring

Perfect Headgaskets


Broken fuel rail bolt

Boogered oil pressure screw

Looks like a monkey used pliers in a New ftp fuel rail

Missing oil baffle!!! Almost unbelievable

Not very good. Unfortunately there is plenty of opportunity to be let down by people\shops in the automotive community. I try to do my own work whenever I can now.

the right thing to do would be to refund the customer , It’s highly unlikely he made this up , and the shops silence in this matter is deafening,

This is why I do all my work myself. I can't trust people these days. You should probably talk to a lawyer and see if you can get some money back.

we already replied on one of his fb groups. It’s company policy to not discuss pending legal actions in open forum. There are always 3 sides to every story

This is why, I've been taking my car to the same reputable shop, for the past 10 years. They 100% stand behind their work, and if your not satisfied, they will make it right.
A good/bad review in today's environment, can sometimes make or break an Auto Repair Shop. And a good shop is hard to find, so when you find a good one, you stay with them.
