Auto Repair in Fort Lauderdale and Across Broward County
South Port Auto Repair is a family-run shop on SW 17th Street in Fort Lauderdale, serving drivers from Pompano Beach, Hollywood, Davie, Plantation, Oakland Park, Dania Beach, Wilton Manors and nearby Broward communities.
European cars are our specialty, but the standard is the same for every vehicle: honest diagnostics, quality parts, clear pricing, and repairs done by people who want you coming back for the right reasons.
Dealer-level work without the dealer experience
The dealership has the tools, but it also has the markup. A chain shop may be cheaper, but on a modern European car or a complex late-model vehicle, a basic code reader is not enough. South Port Auto Repair sits in the middle on purpose.
We use the right diagnostic approach, quality parts, and a practical repair plan. If something needs attention now, we tell you. If it can wait, we tell you that too. That is how a local repair shop earns trust in a market full of options.

Contact the shopThe work we handle every day
Whether you drive a BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Land Rover, Jaguar, Toyota, Honda, Ford, Jeep or work vehicle, the repair starts with the same question: what is actually causing the problem?
We handle the jobs Broward drivers need most: brakes, A/C, diagnostics, cooling, engine repair, transmission service, suspension, alignment, batteries, oil service and scheduled maintenance.

Honest auto repair for the problems South Florida drivers actually face
Heat, traffic, salt air, short trips and highway commutes all wear vehicles differently. We build the repair around how the car is used, not just the warning light on the dash.

We diagnose leaks, compressors, airflow issues and electrical faults instead of selling a temporary recharge.
