Anyone know a good mechanic in Austin, TX?
#11
I have not found an Austin mechanic of any stripe who I trust completely yet. So many mistakes made. Sigh.
I have been learning and learning here and have started using the lifts and tools at DIYTexas - DIY Texas | Do It Yourself Automotive Garage – Austin, TX - to do most of my repairs and maintenance. Nice guys, nice shop.
When I know exactly what needs to be done and I know it's over my head and requires LR expertise/custom tools I still use Land Rover Austin dealership, with a close eye on the who the service advisor is and a hand ready on the phone to call Jack Taylor, the long-time service manager there, if I detect any shenanigans. Hey, you get a "free" loaner there.

I am in San Antonio and might be able to make a trip up to help you out. I've done everything from head gaskets-to-ABS. What seems to be the problem?
If you are looking for a good shop that specializes in Land Rover, then the only place I can suggest from personal experience is British4x4 here in San Antonio. The only time I let them touch my car was to turn off the SLS when I switched to springs because I like to save the money and do the work myself, but I have been in there many times to order parts and they seem to know there stuff. They always seem to have plenty of rovers in the parking lot (like 40-50 waiting to be worked on) so I'm not sure what there turn over time is like.

Did you ever find a good mechanic?
You are in Austin. Awesome. We should meet up some time. I have few problems may be we can help each other. I have done a lot of work on my own and have good stock of tools at home. Let me know if you want to meet up for coffee or drinks. I am in SW Austin and work up north.
Thanks

I'm in Round Rock and still looking for a good mechanic. Any suggestions for an Austin mechanic would be helpful.
Can't get the SES light to go off.
