For three generations and almost seventy years, Green's Garage has been Miami's independent alternative to the dealership. We're not a chain and we're not a franchise. We're the shop families in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Brickell, Key Biscayne, Pinecrest and South Miami have trusted since 1957, and the shop their kids and grandkids still bring their cars to.
Today, more and more of those cars are plug-in hybrids and EVs, and we've built one of Miami's few independent high-voltage programs to service them. What separates us is method: we diagnose before we quote, we measure instead of guessing, and you get written findings before anything is authorized.

Miami's Independent Hybrid & High-Voltage Program
Most independent shops won't open a high-voltage system. They read a code, see an HV fault, and refer the car to the dealer. The ones that do take the work often solve it the expensive way: they replace the battery pack because that's where the code points.
We have an ASE L3 Light-Duty Hybrid/Electric Vehicle Specialist on staff. It's the advanced credential covering high-voltage system diagnosis, isolation testing, battery service and hybrid powertrain work. It's a separate qualification from ASE Master, and it's what makes this work safe to perform.
We diagnose before replacing
Many quoted pack replacements turn out to be something smaller once someone measures the system instead of trusting the code: a single weak module, a degraded 12V auxiliary battery, a blocked cooling vent, a failed coolant pump, a charging fault or a converter problem. Before you spend thousands on a battery, get it measured.
When a module has failed, we replace the module, not the pack
We operate an EV battery service table and work at module level. That means pack removal, module-by-module voltage and internal resistance measurement, component replacement, and battery management system coding. We also run dedicated POE refrigerant equipment for hybrid and EV electric A/C compressors, because cross-contamination with conventional compressor oil destroys them.
Hybrid Battery Health Check — [$X]
A module-by-module voltage and internal resistance test, plus a check of the 12V auxiliary battery, cooling system and charging electronics. You get a written report showing exactly what's healthy and what isn't, before you authorize anything. Book a Hybrid Battery Health Check →

You're in the Right Place If You're Dealing With
- A hybrid battery you've been quoted for. Range Rover P400e, BMW 330e/530e/X5 45e, Jeep 4xe, Volvo T8, Cayenne E-Hybrid, Prius, Camry and more. Before you spend thousands, get it measured. Many quoted packs turn out to be a 12V battery, a cooling fault, a converter, or one module. HV battery testing →
- A hybrid warning light: "Check Hybrid System," "Hybrid System Malfunction," "Drivetrain Malfunction," "Restricted Driving Function." Every manufacturer words it differently, and none of them names the cause. Hybrid diagnostics →
- Land Rover or Range Rover air suspension faults. Sagging corners, "Suspension Fault" messages, or a compressor that runs nonstop. We test the whole system before replacing a single strut. Land Rover air suspension repair →
- A battery that keeps dying, overnight or after a weekend, even after the dealer replaced it. Parasitic drains are our specialty, and they're epidemic on modern Land Rover, Jaguar, BMW, MINI and Volvo. Electrical diagnostics →
- A no-start, or warning lights that come and go, especially after parts have already been replaced. Intermittent electrical faults are exactly what scope-level diagnostics exist for. No-start diagnostics →
- Overheating or coolant loss with no visible leak. Land Rover and Jaguar supercharged V8s, BMW electric water pumps, Jeep Pentastar oil coolers, Volvo Drive-E. It's a Miami summer classic. Overheating repair →
- Oil leaks the dealer says need major access, or that came back after a previous repair. BMW valve cover and oil filter housing, Land Rover front cover, Jeep 3.6 oil cooler. Oil leak diagnosis →
- A/C that isn't cold, or that failed again after a recharge. The recharge wasn't the fix, and running the system low is how a small leak becomes a failed compressor. A/C repair →
- An estimate from the dealer or another shop that you want a second opinion on before authorizing. Get a second opinion →
If any of that describes your situation, we're built for it. Call (305) 444-8881 or schedule a diagnostic online.

How We Work — The Diagnostic-First Method
Reading a code and replacing the most common cause works for clear-cut failures. It fails badly when the real fault sits upstream of the code.
- Symptom interview first. Before we connect anything, we ask exactly when the problem happens, what it sounds like, what triggers it, and what's already been tried.
- Full module scan, not a code read. We scan every module on the vehicle (engine, body, ABS, climate, gateway and, on hybrids, the high-voltage system) with bidirectional control and live data. Where a repair needs manufacturer coding, configuration or adaptation, we have factory-level software access, including BMW ICOM.
- Scope-level physical testing. Scan data points at a system; measurement confirms the component. Our tools include:
- A PicoScope for signal and current-ramp analysis
- Current clamps for parasitic draw
- Insulation and isolation testing on high-voltage systems
- Pressure and leak-down testing
- Smoke testing for vacuum leaks
- Root cause, not symptom. A misfire code on cylinder four doesn't always mean cylinder four's coil. It might be a shorted injector harness, a starved timing chain tensioner, or an upstream sensor fault. We separate cause from symptom before quoting.
- Written findings before any repair. You get the diagnosis in writing: the root cause, the evidence, what we tested and found good, and the repair options with costs. You decide what to authorize.
We don't replace parts to see whether they fix the problem. That's how cars come back, and how customers end up paying for two repairs to solve one fault.
Major Repairs on Every Make
Whatever you drive, we fix it the same way: diagnostic-first, with written findings and a 2-year / 24,000-mile warranty on diagnostic-led repairs.
- A/C Repair & Diagnostics → Compressor, condenser, evaporator and climate control modules. Equipped for R-134a and R-1234yf, plus dedicated POE equipment for hybrid electric compressors. We trace the leak before recharging, always.
- Auto Electrical Repair → No-starts, battery drains, shorts, warning-light storms, and wiring and module faults, diagnosed with oscilloscope-level testing and long-duration current monitoring. See also Crank No-Start Diagnostics →
- Engine Repair & Diagnostics → Oil leaks, misfires, overheating, timing chains and belts, noise and vibration, carbon cleaning. See also Oil Leak Diagnosis → · Coolant Leak & Overheating →
- Brake & Stability Systems → ABS module diagnostics, electronic parking brakes, stability and traction faults, and regenerative braking on hybrids and EVs. We test brake fluid moisture on every visit, because Miami humidity speeds up fluid breakdown.
- Suspension & Steering → Air suspension diagnosis, struts and shocks, control arms and bushings.
- Second Opinion & Advanced Diagnostics → Unresolved warning lights, multi-fault problems, and repairs that didn't solve the problem.
- Scheduled Maintenance → Factory-spec fluids and service intervals, documented to protect your warranty.
Also serviced:Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Subaru, Ford, Lincoln, Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Chrysler, Dodge, Mazda, Hyundai and Kia. Same method, same warranty, same shop.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you work on my hybrid or EV?
Yes, and we go further than most. We have an ASE L3 Hybrid/EV Specialist on staff and operate an EV battery service table, so we do module-level pack work instead of an automatic dealer referral. We service hybrids and EVs from most makes, from Land Rover, BMW and Porsche to Toyota, Lexus and Jeep. Hybrid & EV diagnostics →
I've been quoted a hybrid battery. Can you check it before I authorize?
Yes, and it's one of the most common reasons people call us. We measure every module individually for voltage and internal resistance, and check the 12V auxiliary battery, the cooling system and the charging electronics. Sometimes the quote is confirmed. Often the fault is a 12V battery, a blocked cooling vent, a converter, or one module rather than the whole pack. You get written findings either way.
Can you replace one module instead of the whole battery?
Often, yes. But it only makes sense when the rest of the pack is healthy. A new module in a broadly degraded pack ends up carrying the others. The module-by-module data tells us which situation you're in, and we'll tell you plainly when a full replacement is the honest answer. HV battery module replacement →
Do you specialize in Land Rover and Range Rover?
Yes. Land Rover and Jaguar are among our deepest specialties. That includes air suspension, supercharged V8 and Ingenium engines, electrical and parasitic drain faults, water intrusion, and P400e/P510e plug-in hybrids. We service gasoline and hybrid models; we don't take diesel Land Rovers.
Do you work on BMW and MINI?
Yes. We use BMW ICOM factory tooling with in-house module programming. We cover BMW plug-in hybrids and EVs (including the i3, i8 and X5 45e) and the common B48/B58/N63 oil and cooling failures and electrical faults. MINI shares BMW's engines and electronics, so it gets the same depth.
What makes Green's Garage different from the dealership?
We're independent, so no one here is paid on parts volume or pushed to upsell. We test before we replace, and you get written findings. And we've been doing this in Miami since 1957, three generations in the same building.
Do you only work on the brands listed above?
No. Those are the brands we go deepest on, but we take on A/C, brake, engine, electrical and suspension repairs for every make on the road, with the same method and warranty.
My car has an electrical problem nobody can find. Can you actually fix it?
This is our specialty. Intermittent faults, batteries that keep dying, and warning lights that come and go defeat most shops, because they take oscilloscope-level testing and long-duration current monitoring, not a code reader. We test circuits under real operating conditions and document the fault before recommending any part.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes: 2 years or 24,000 miles on diagnostic-led repairs, parts and labor. Warranty details →
Will independent service void my factory warranty?
No. Under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, independent shops can service your vehicle without voiding the factory warranty, as long as equivalent parts and procedures are used. We document everything. Active warranty repairs, recalls and goodwill claims should go through the dealer. Hybrid battery coverage runs long on most vehicles, so check your status before paying out of pocket.
How quickly can I get an appointment?
Same-week in almost all cases. For urgent issues like a no-start, overheating, a brake warning or A/C failure mid-summer, often same-day. Call (305) 444-8881.
