Mechanic recommendation zip 22046

bumpity bump... I find it hard to believe that there's not a single honest mechanic this close to our nation's capital?

Nate, have you tried the AAA site.

It might help you work up a shortlist at any rate.

Nate, how far are you from Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania?

About 165 miles per mapquest :(

actually, come to think of it, there was a guy named Peter in Delaware that I used to buy VW parts from, and he was starting to also do some repair work out of his garage... I wonder if he'd be interested in taking on the Corrado... I think he was really a Scirocco specialist though

Where on their site do they have this info? I took a quick look and couldn't find it. I didn't spend too much time because I am not a member and suspect that you need to be, is this correct?

Actually there is one shop I have a good feeling about but would like some independent corroboration.

\ Nope, you dont have to be a member for this. But you have to dig for it a little. Or, just call the local AAA, and ask.

I dont know where you live, so cant really run the gamut on this for you, but if you want to tell me the state or district, I will see what I can find.

Best regards

eh, found it, just needed to be reassured that I would actually find something.

That actually *is* somewhat helpful... the shop I had a good feeling about is on the list and is the only one listed that mentions specializing in German cars; none of the ones that the girlie has had bad experiences with are on that list, although results show up within the same area as those shops.

I just have some amount of trepidation at taking a Porsche with a suspected bad transaxle to a shop that I've only been into once, and that for having snow tires mounted... that just seems a little too close to dropping the soap for my taste.

location is Falls Church, VA 22046...
