After moving back to the area in October, I was worried about where to take my 2007 VW Rabbit for maintenance and repairs. The car had been my daughter’s, who got it new, so it’s been in the family. She maintained it reasonably well, except she didn’t drive very much — only 82,000 miles on the car when she gave me the car a few months ago. And, the last years, she took the car to a generalist car repair shop. I like the Rabbit a lot and I wondered if I could get the car to 20 years old with no big surprises. My goal was to find a VW/Audie-only specialist, but I thought outside of a dealership, it may have been an impossible task. Then I found Next Level Tuning through a Google search.

The owner, Josh, returned my voicemail. My first visit there was a “get to know the car” appointment and to make sure the car would pass PA inspection, which I was a little stressed over. Josh addressed a few things (like rusting wheel assemblies and replacing a couple tire lug nuts). He identified two areas that needed to be addressed soon—a faulty PCV assembly, old ignition cables, and miss-matched spark plugs. I got the car inspected first and then returned to Josh for final repairs.

Since getting the car from my daughter, I actually thought the car drove fine. After Josh completed the planned repairs (PCV assembly, spark plugs, and cables), it was like driving off the show room floor. The engine response and smoothness is very noticeable and getting the work done was the best thing I could have done.

In addition to all of the above, the car’s key fobs had not worked for many, many months, and the car alarm was going off at least 50% of the time when I manually (inserted and turned the key) opened the locked car. It was a huge pain. Josh inserted new batteries and reprogrammed both key fobs, and even added a wrinkle—opening and closing the windows with the fob. I have used shops like Next Level Tuning in other states and cities where I lived, for two Mercedes and an Audi. None of those would touch reprogramming a key fob. Josh was a whiz.

I can’t say enough about the advice Josh has given about maintaining my 2007 Rabbit. Initially, I was a little worried that I wasn’t driving up with an Audi TT, and my poor Rabbit wouldn’t get the same degree of attention. But that certainly didn’t happen. In the end, I have been more than impressed with Next Level Tuning, and I wonder if my old Audi TT could have lived past 200,000 under Next Level Tuning’s care.

I recently had to have work done on my convertible VW bug because the top wouldn’t go down…back window was not working! And, of course, it’s summer and I wanted it done yesterday!! While it took awhile to get it into the shop, the repair was done quickly and beyond excellently. Josh kept in close touch with me regarding all of the work, parts and a problem that was unseen until the work started. I was super impressed by this young man’s work ethic and his detailed knowledge of the cars he works with (only 2 kinds). It really was a pleasure working with both Josh and his wife, Kristin! I’ll be a continuing customer as long as I own a VW or an Audi!

I called Next Level cause my car already had a tune done when I bought it and was having trouble getting it to pass inspection. Josh got everything sorted out and recommended some maintenance. The estimate was almost the actual cost and Josh explained everything to me and explained it again in a way I would understand. I'm super happy with the work and would recommend Next Level Tuning.

I have been taking my MK6 Jetta to Josh and Kristin at Next Level Tuning for a little while now and I have always had a great experience. Josh is extremely knowledgeable and is always willing to do the job the right way even if that means he has to fix someones mistake. My last experience with Josh was to have my headlights installed. I wasn't able to get them done that day because I needed an extra part for the install. Josh told me this upfront while I was at the shop so I didn't have to pay for the labor since it would have been done incorrectly. Most places I know would not have been this honestly at all. Since I couldn't get the headlights installed I asked him if he could switch the harness in my tail light since I was having an issue getting them to work. Josh took one look at knew that the harness was no good and took it upon himself to rewire it since the company I bought it from did it wrong. He didn't have to go the extra mile especially since this was an unrelated issue to what I was there to do. He just cares that much about his customers and just wants everything to be right. Kristin is also very very helpful too. She always follows up with the customer to make sure everything was done to their liking. She is always extremely professional on the phone and will respond to your calls or emails very promptly. I honestly would not take my car anywhere but here. If you need any kind of work done to your Audi or Volkswagen I would highly recommend looking here first. Top notch work with even better customer service.

Been a customer for awhile. Professional and extremely knowledgeable. Had the apr stage one done and wouldn’t have gone anywhere else but to Josh at Next Level Tuning. I drive three hours to be a customer and it’s worth it!! Highly recommended.

I take my many cars to Next Level Tuning. They know everything from performance to a maintenance standpoint. My GTI has over 150,000 miles and feels like the day I bought it thanks to Next Level Tuning!

My experience with Next Level Tuning in Greensburg, PA, has been great! Believe me, when I first rolled into NL Tuning I had a lot of ideas about what I believed were cool mod choices for my GTI. But as I talked with owner, Josh Volk, it became clear I should defer to his experience and expertise. The results have been nothing short of fantastic. I now enjoy a huge "grin" factor every time I drive my APR Stage 2+ MK6 GTI. So, if you're contemplating aftermarket mods for your VW or Audi, choose NL Tuning. Josh and his staff will, literally, take you to the "next level" by partnering with you and deciding what mods make the most sense based on your budget and your performance goals, from APR ECU reflashes, to exhaust, tire and suspension choices, and more. Go NLT!!

I recently moved to the Pgh area and did not know of any shops or places in the local area where I could take my modified car in for service.

I suddenly had my clutch/transmission go out on me, so naturally I panicked. I needed to find a place that could service my car, and with several aftermarket parts, I was skeptical where to take it. After a few Google searches, I learned about Next Level Tuning. (They're also an APR distributor!) So I called. After speaking to Josh, he told me it'd be perfectly fine to have my car brought in for repairs.

Everything that could go right about this experience did. He was very vocal and communicated perfectly what would need to be done and what all of my options were. The cost and time fit my expectations, and he was a really friendly, down-to-earth, kind of person.

I can't speak on behalf of what other shops provide in the area, because I've only dealt with NL, but I'm more than happy.
