Good shop in STL or Indy?

I got burned by a dealer in St. Louis, and have used private shops in Tulsa and Kansas City with much success. Also I found a St. Louis mechanic who does work at home to help fund a new baby, and does great with the simple stuff like changing my rotors, brake pads, and oil on my 2000S. Please post any experiences you have with your S in the area.

There are 2 Porsche dealerships in St. Louis; Creve Coeur and Kirkwood. My guess is that this happened at Plaza Motors in Creve Coeur.

Tim, thanks for telling me to go to Beaumont Alignment in Champaign. Kane was very nice, professional and knows how to take care of the customers. He personally came back in twice to let me know where we were at with the alignment and doubled checked the specs I gave him without even asking. In most shops you're lucky if you get the service writer to come find you and they try to echo what the tech says to them and some gets lost in translation usually like the telephone game. I'm sure the half degree of positve camber on each front wasn't helping my autocross times. I can't wait until the next autocross to try the changes!! Beaumont has always met and usually exceeded my expectations and if anyone needs some alignment work done or tire change in Central Illinois you should check into them. Oh, and they charge half of what Isringhausen charges for an alignment. Two thumbs up

I am glad that you had a good experience.
