Looking for Good Mechanic

Rescue Wagon · #1 03-21-2008, 04:55 PM

Well I am picking up my first SVX this week and I am looking foward to owning a car that I have wanted for a few years.

It currently has a 4EAT that is slipping and that I am guessing will need to be replaced but who knows. That is why I was wondering if anyone knows a good mechanic that knows SVXs in Wyoming or Colorado? Or I guess my other option is just buy a plane ticket for one of the Toms to come to Cheyenne and help me out.

I am really interested in converting the SVX from a FWD car to an AWD car.

Thanks

James

I've heard of them but I was not sure of their reputation.

Thanks.

They do great work, ask anyone on the USMB.

I'd stay away from Super Rupair in Boulder. I had a bad experience with them several years ago. They performed a bunch of diagnostic work that I didn't ask for and was unrelated to the reason the car was brought to them.

In the end, they gave me some nonsense about the gas cap being worn and not holding tight enough. The bill came to somewhere around $110 that they made me pay. The only thing I got out of it was a new gas cap that I could have bought at walmart for 10 bucks.

This was before I was very car savvy. Now I do most work myself.

Sorry, I meant radiator cap, not gas cap.
