I'm just curious...I assume someone here is from SE PA or MD or somewhere around here...Thanks. James...Wilmington, DE

I have used charlie cantlin in conshohocken PA before, a bit expensive but he is a MB specialist and has done good work for me. There is also an MB specialty place in Ardmore, PA. Depends how far you're willing to drive.

Peter at R&K Motors in Newark always serviced my cars when I lived in the area. He is a Bosch service center too, in case you need fuel system stuff done.
