As the title states, I'm looking for a service facility to repair a (901) transaxle in Oregon. As typical for most 914's 2nd gear syncros are showing some age. Your assistance in locating a shop is appreciated.

A&P has been 50/50 for me. Do not let them touch your D-Jet if you have one. Or brakes.
They once decided to "fix" my fuel injection system by messing around with the manifold pressure sensor. And by fix I mean destroy. The actual problem was tired vacuum lines and throttle body gasket which I fixed myself in last winter's D-Jet-Do-Over. On another occasion they replaced my brake calipers as part of a "complete brake job." They didn't replace the worn out rotors, the system leaked all over the place, and the "guys in Seattle" they sent to rebuild the calipers did a hideous job. The same calipers were sent to Mr. Shea a year later where they were determined to be useless as cores. And all for only a thousand bucks. Twice I've had my car leave running worse than when I brought it in. Having said all of that, they did super work on my 944 for many years. I believe them to be good people, but it's clear to me that 914 work isn't their strong suit. -marcus QUOTE(BKLA @ Feb 7 2013, 09:52 PM) QUOTE(Mikey914 @ Feb 6 2013, 09:56 PM) Gamroth is good, if he's busy there's Allen at A&P Specialties on 82nd.
