I'm looking for a good independant shop in the Mercer County area of NJ - Princeton/Trenton. I've seen the recommendations for, I believe it's Contemperary, in Little Silver but that's a bit further than I can easily deal with.

I'd like to find someone who is used to dealing with DIYers and is particularly good with engine diagnostics on somewhat older cars - I have an '87 560SEL.

Thanks
Jeff

Don't know if it's close enough but I use a great independent shop in Lakewood, 10 min off exit 21 Rte 195 East.

It takes me 30-45 min from Lakewood to Princeton depending on the traffic. Let me know if it works, I'll give you the details.

Dave,

I'm actually going to be going right by there this weekend so I'll check out the convenience factor.
