Omaha area VW mechanic? Transmission trouble 87 golf

Oct 17, 2007 1 Replies

Hi everybody,



I need recommendations for a VW mechanic in the Omaha area, preferably in the Southwest part of town, or even out towards Springfield. I'm looking for the same qualities we all look for in mechanics: competent, fair, and reasonably priced.



Have any of you Omaha folks used German Auto Specialists? They've been given two rave reviews on the car talk site, but they were both written by the same reviewer.



Thanks,



Jason

My thoughts: Buy the tranny from junkyard on vehicle with reasonably low miles. Most any mechanic can install it. Be sure they change the oil in the tranny. Replace all nylon related shifter stuff at the same time. Replace the throwout bearing while the tranny is being swapped. If original, replace the clutch cable. Dave
