Any svx mechanics in southern california?
Getting really desperate.. I looked up the shop search but that place is a bit of a drive from riverside... I cannot work on my car here since my hometown is up north (my garage, tools are there). I'm down here for school. Can anyone recommend a place for work on the SVX? I'm paranoid cause i've been driving on (what I feel is) bad rear wheel bearings for quite some time, and my front axle needs replacing (cv boot ripped both sides).
help! |

I'm looking too!
I have made this request before, I really need to know a reasonably good SVX person in Southern California. I have got everything working now on my car, but that is by people who go by books, not because they have intimate, actual knowledge of the car. And the closest dealerships are more than 20 miles away.

Please PM me the number as well!! I'm in Orange, CA. I can do basic things (I do my own brake work, electrics work, interior work), but don't have the equipment needed to do big jobs (suspension, bearings, exhaust).
However, I do have a select monitor interface and would LOVE to try it out on some SVXs besides my own. It would help the creator a lot if I could try it. If any of you are nearby and can stop by, let me know. If not, tell me when you're free and I'll make the drive myself. ALWAYS good to meet a fellow SVX owner, and even better if I can have a peek at your engine computer. |

Damn, I hate having work on weekends... but since it starts at 10 AM, I'll see if I can't make it for at least a few hours.
