SVX mechanics in/near Rockville, Maryland?
 

Now that I am the proud owner of a 1996 LSi, I am sure I will be needing an experienced SVX mechanic before long.

There is a Fitzgerald's Subaru dealer in Rockville, but I would love to be able to avoid dealer service prices. Has anyone found any good Subaru mechanics around here?

:) If you don't mind a run up 70 N to Frederick, there's a place called Foreign Auto Excellence (I think that's the name). I've never used them, but the prior owner of my '92 had them install a Suby rebuilt tranny over 5 years ago. No complaints yet. I think they have a certified Suby mechanic that has seen more than one SVX. I also had decent work done at Heritage Subaru in Owings Mills, but that's a tad further in the Baltimore direction.

Have fun.

I had one down here in Calvert County, but he decided to retire :mad: (it did give me the justification for doing almost everything myself now... :rolleyes: )
What are you looking to have done? There's always the possibility of a "fix it" meet.

At this point, one issue may be an A/C leak (see my question on the Technical Q&A forum) but really I just want to be ready before a problem occurs. I don't want to discover that a wheel bearing needs replacing and then start searching for a qualified mechanic.

Foreign Auto Excellence charges $65/hour for labor

Rt 40 for $35.00 an hour, and we know SVXi :D

It's in Cumberland MD. 301-707-3437 :)

There is a garage in Westminster, MD, right on 140 that has worked on my SVX before. EIP Tuning.
They did my wheel bearings and cold air intake. Great Shop!!

wow.... eip ehh? bransfield in riesterstown is one of the best (if you dont want to go to cumberland). i have lived off of rt91 for 18 years and i know alot of the guys who work at eip, i would not sugest taking your car there, i would also avoid whitcraft in riesterstown, unfortunately the owings mills dealor has a policy that they dont work on cars 10 years of age or older. for anything under the hood i would go to bransfield their are fast and they stand my their work 100% go to the dealer in fredrick for the timing belt and scheduled maintinence, if you want a new tranny installed go to svxfiles. you can go anywhere for tires but i go to even's tire at the corner of 91 and 140, nice guys good tires and good prices just make sure they dont reverse your wheels.

I go to Heritage SUBARU in Owings Mills with my 92 SVX. They don't have a problem working on my over 10 year old car with 260,000 miles on it.
