2 weeks of frustration ends, I hope...

I would start by steering clear of any shop that claims to work on "Ferrari and Lambos" that you have never heard of.

For one thing there are not that many italian cars running around and the owners will go to the dealer or a select handful of indy shops.

I have a friend who really does operate an indy shop for Ferrari and Lamborghini (he would never call it a Lambo, that word applies to crap scissor doors that racer boys put on purple ricers).

He is Italian and was at the Lamborghini factory for several decades. He has more hours in the Diablo than any other human being. He is the real deal, he has actually worked on a Veyron that was sent to him by a Russian Oligarch. He used to live in the garage of the Sultan of Brunei for two years.

The point is...you could not get him to wipe your windshield for $950, it does not work that way. He deals with professional athletes, politicians, rock stars, wall street traders, wannabe players and underworld characters every day. You would not even get a Boxster in the door. Not that he is a snob, he just does not have time to mess with them.

I know it might be a short haul from Atlanta but Protech Motorsports in Greenville SC would be ideal. They have been in business for a quite a while and all they deal with is Porsche, Audi and VW. Great group of guys who have always taken care of me. Highly recommend next time you are in the area!!

Downtown G-Ville is and awesome place to visit!

With not being able to get any detailed information from him you should have at least asked for your old parts since they are yours and I'm sure neither one of them required a core so he couldn't use that excuse. If he had hesitated there then you would know he didn't replace them.

Somethings that might tell you that he didn't replace your fuel pump.

Do you recall if your car had the same amount of gasoline as when you had it towed there. One of the steps in replacing a fuel pump is to remove as much gas from the tank as possible.

He would have had to remove your battery. Did you have to put in your radio code to get it working again?

I'm sure there are plenty of other tell-tale signs or things you could check but I think these two would be certain give-aways.

Here is a link to replacement of a Boxster fuel pump so maybe you can look and see if there appears to be any signs of work around this area.

After I lost my usual place I would take my car I looked around and found this shop. It was a bit of a drive but I was impressed with their service and the owners time and ability to clearly explain to me what was wrong with my car and what they did.

Autoworks in Macon.
Randy Eversole is as straight a shooter as has ever lived.
Depending on what part of Atlanta you're in, it may be a haul, but a good percentage of Randy's Porsche customers are from Atlanta.
He was the chief Porsche wrench at the Macon dealer, while they were still open and that's where we met, about a hundred years ago!

Did you get a PPI before buying it?
