I am also looking for a good mechanic in Houston. I'll probably just go to the dealer if I can't get a good recommendation. I am sure I will pay more but it seems safer than going to an independent chosen from internet searches.

WA, Redmond/Bellevue/Kirkand (east of Seattle)

Fortunate to have 3 very good options ...

Did a post purchase inspection and my full service. Also reset my airbag light for free after i tripped it changing the window regulator. Great personal touch from a one man band.

Fitted my passenger airbag disable kit and supplied car set. Did an excellent job diagnosing 2 major faults on the car (and didn't charge me for it). Rediculously high repair costs but expected as it's a main dealer. Trusted by Porsche owners with factory/CPO warranty.

Be interested in knowing how your IMS upgrade goes when you do it.

I also heard Squire was highly recommended, but was told they only work on older Porsches, air cooled and 924/944/928s.

Looking for a good mechanic north of San Francisco

Hi there,

Does anyone know a good mechanic in Marin County? Preferably in the Novato, San Rafael, Petaluma, Santa Rosa area? East Bay could work too as long as it is in the Northern part (Berkeley, Richmond, Oakland, etc).

Thanks,
Lars
