I can't second that heartily enough.

And import services in g-ville is good, but busy.
I hear bad things about Pirate Auto in the last few years.

"Pirate Auto?" Are you serious?!

Oh, ECU Pirates. I forgot that was the name of the team there. I've been to a few places that should have been named "Pirate Auto . . . ."

Last year I saw the temperature of my '85 300tdt go up and stopped at the only mechanic in Aurora: Casey's auto Sales & Garage.
23147 Nc Highway 33 E
Aurora, NC 27806-9785
(252) 322-5058
They determined that a washer was broken and leaked at the bottom of the radiator where the transmission cooling pipe enters the radiator.
It was a Saturday and they didn't have any replacement on hand.
They proceeded to fabricate a washer and put it in. 2 hours and $90 later I was on the road. a year and 20000 mi later it's still holding just fine.
I am always surprise how many mechanics have worked in their younger life on Mercedes here in NC.
