- What is TDW Auto?
- TDW Auto is an independent performance shop in San Jose, California, enthusiast owned and track driven. We work on Porsche, BMW, C8 Corvette and Tesla, plus supercars and exotics: maintenance, alignment, suspension, brakes, tires and track prep. We used to be called The Driveway. More
- Where is it, and when is it open?
- 1691 Villa Stone Dr, Ste 40, San Jose, CA 95125. Mon–Fri 10am–5pm; Saturday by appointment; Sunday closed. Phone (669) 342-7072, email support@tdwauto.com. Most people drive past on the first visit: turn off Almaden Expy onto Villa Stone Dr, drive into the lot, and we're in the building at the back. More
- Do you work on Porsches?
- Yes: Cayman, Boxster, 911 and the GT cars. Oil service with Porsche-approved oil, PDK fluid service with the transmission calibrated every time, centerlock tires mounted on a leverless changer and balanced on a Hunter Road-Force machine, Numeric shifter cables, and track setup. We're a Dundon Motorsports dealer for headers, center mufflers and valved cat-back systems. More
- Can you align a lowered car, or set one up for the track?
- Yes. We align lowered cars every day on a 3D aligner, with the adjustable arms and camber plates they may need, and set up custom and track alignments for how you drive. Corner balancing to a 50% cross-weight is the step after that. More
- Do you prepare cars for track days?
- Yes: alignment, corner balancing, suspension (KW, Mountain Pass, HKS, BC Racing and more), brakes and tires. Our track day page covers what to do before your first event. More
- Do you work on BMWs?
