The parts dept at Laguna Niguel actually knows their stuff. Great dealership. I asked for a fuseable link for my blower motor at Fletcher Jones and they took ten minutes to find it. A very common part. The best part is, I live five minutes away from Laguna Niguel.

Anyone have a Paintless Dent Removal tech in the Southern California area that they can recommend?



Thanks,

glenmore, look up crawford coach I think it is called may be crayford coach. You want these guys, they are amazing. they know their stuff, and do a top notch job.

The guy who does it is soo good his name is sean (maybe spelled Shawn)

I don't have a number for them, my boss just used them to fix some dings on his s600, and the car looks amazing they did a perfect job. I'm sure they are listed.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

A new, highly recommended, MBZ service shop just opened in San Francisco: Octane, located at 330 10th Street (near Costco). Tel: 415.863.5555.

The owner, Randy Kuwatani, has many years of high-level MBZ service behind him. He's careful, knowledgeable and a true gentleman.

Octane also has on board one of the few San Francisco MBZ-certified Master Guild Technicians.

Regards,
Bob
P.S. Disclaimer: I am a customer and I am also assisting Octane with various formation matters.

Who's honest, and not going to "see me coming" just because I'm a female, because I tell ya, it surely doesn't mean my wallet's bigger.

Jim F. lives in San Diego, and I notice that he is a big fan of a particular shop.

Here is some info on his webpage:

What's their address and phone number? Thanks.

Been looking for one also, please let me know if you found one. Thanks.

I live just down the street from Cupertino Mercedes but Silver Star Auto in San Jose quoted my $70 less on the same job and had a very good experience. With some other work another $25 was dropped on the original work and I got a free engine cleaning and I now have a good mechanic.

I need to get the valves adjusted on my parents old 240D while I'm visiting in Los Altos...any of these shops service the old diesels? If not, any recommendation on who in the Bay Area is good at doing a valve adjustment on such a car?

Just went to Exclusive Motors...very professional. I would highly recommend this shop. But you have to make an appointment, and you won't be disappointed, plus their price is very reasonable.

A good mech is located in down town san diego. The shop is called MB auto center
