Hello all!

my car has multiple issues suddenly and needs to go to the car doc. i usually go to Hefner's in Mesa because they are super reliable, affordable and honest. i am reeeediculously busy for the next few weeks though, and the time it takes to schlep to and fro Mesa I just don't have. SO, I was wondering if anyone knows of an honest, reliable, affordable mechanic in the Phx area. I live @ 15th st and Northern, basically, and so would love someone within easy shouting distance. (aka not more than about a 15 minute drive) Any suggestions? Not to put a "time limit" on this request, but I am going to drive the Saturn over to Mesa this afternoon if there are no other options, cause this afternoon I have a ride.

thnx

I liked these guys .... took my truck there for starter replacement. It's across the street from Buffalo Exchange & Bashas. Basically Missouri & 7th Street. If you look over their website, you'll notice they are a family run business. I had no complaints, they just did solid work & didn't seem like they were out to screw me.

What kind of car do you drive?

If it's a honda...I recommend the Hon-Man. He's the bees knees, as far as I am concerned. He will even send someone to pick up your car.

If not, I would recommend Chester's Garage on 7th Ave. I think that's where my mom and dad take their vehicles. I suppose he's like a friend or something. He's a super sweet guy and very knowledgeable. 7th ave across from Copper Star.

Awesome - I'm moving to a place that's a stone's throw away from this place and was wondering if they're any good. Couldn't find any customer reviews online. Shizz vouch will do.

Thanks!

Seriously! X 2 :)

It's less than a half-mile from the George & Dragon, which is just ridiculous. Same with the nearest light rail stop. Closing on Monday!

I saw a lot of good buzz on this garage in one of the other mechanic threads I found when I was searching - definitely will try them out for all the usual maintenance stuff I'll need done.

My engine light's been on for a couple of weeks now - still running fine, so who knows. Fucking cars.

That happened all the time on my old van, it was an emissions issue of some sort I never fixed. Same thing on my wife's old Civic. A $400 exhaust sensor went out during a test drive after I had listed it on Craigslist. So, we had to knock $400 off the price.

I seriously love Camelback Garage. I have been going there sine this thread was new and have had both my vehicles there multiple times. They are always honest and give you great prices.
