(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) I know I can't mention service companies, but there is a resident genius working on Lincoln in Orange. Skip (Not the name of the place) got my car running better than anyone ever did, and he did a lash job like none I ever saw before. I watched. I marveled! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) He also got the flaps/bellows done in about 10 minutes, and the way he timed the 2.0 it was sheer inspiration. He has a lifetime of knowledge, and I have a secret about MPS's that he taught me, and I SAW IT WITH MY OWN EYES! I know I can't mention names, but those of you in the area that want the gory details, just pm me. The MPS thing is STARTLING! Not one person in all my years around teeners ever showed or told me this absolutely true phenomena. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) This was worth every penny I spent, and I got to watch! Thank you to the people that recommended this place! Best always, John avidfanjpl |

QUOTE(Jon Fernandes @ Jun 17 2010, 08:28 PM)  Good to hear that there are still shops out there that don't mind interacting with the customer, and showing them the steps involved in work thats gets done to their cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Totally agree with that. I love it when a good shop does that. A local shop here, German Master Tech in Bend, Oregon is that way. They rode along with me, listened to the car, showed me tips and tricks, info, little things here and there I wouldn't have picked out without someone with skilled knowledge and happily showed me things about my car. They even made a brake line for me on the spot (i had one get mangled... we won't go there... since it was user error) and charged me hardly anything for it. It is great to hear of shops happy to help the customer, and not JUST their wallet. The only other shop that has ever done that for me was Bend Euro Moto, however, they are now gone, and out of business as of June 1st. But the owner, David, was one of the best Ducati mechanics I have ever met in person, spoke to, and picked brains with. He was not only knowledgeable, but helpful and showed me how to do things myself. I think the best part is that he would show me techniques to do things without using certain tools that were 'factory tools' to do the same job for an easier way. When i would do that, then report my findings to other people who do "DIY maintenance" they would tell me i'm crazy for not doing it "the factory way" and didn't believe me when I said a Ducati tech and shop owner is the one that showed me the technique.
