Northeast FL

I'll throw another log on the fire for Continental Imports in Gainesville. Had the 100,000 mile service done and they were great. It was $1,500 but my dealership estimated they would be north of $2,000. CI also provided me with a car after they had to keep my mine overnight. A new Mini Cooper S with a Maestro GPS . Now that was fun. Thank you Darin and Heidi.

Thumbs up FAIR Shop in JAX/St Augustine

Im not sure if I found it here or on another forum but I had heard good things about Coastal Automotive & Diesel in St Aug.

(904) 829-0036
232 State Road 16
Saint Augustine,FL32084



I just took my 98 E300D there for an AC issue that was driving me nuts.

John (the owner) and his desk man Dan were both friendly and knew about my diesel. They were very fair with pricing! and very through...

I would GIVE THEM 2 THUMBS UP... and I will return again with my other cars.

If they did not reconnect the oil cooler to the radiator, why would you be recommending them???

Because on a long run like that, the oil cooler bolt may have worked loose (no fault) or the mounting clip may have failed (no fault).

Been there, done that several times.
