Service Shops

Hi all,

I do most of the work on my car, but there are some things that I don't mind paying someone else to do, like flush coolant. Unfortunately, I hate the way most mechanics treat cars, and the way most shops are run. The last straw was NTB f-ing up my rims last week. Does anyone know of a good, reputable shop that will take the same care with your car as you would? I'm in northern mass(Dracut) so anywhere from Manchester NH south would work for me.

Thanks
Dave

Re: Service Shops

I just need to get the ol' radiator flushed and filled... Easy job, but messy... I'm already in trouble with the condo association, so I can't do it @ home... Dealer wants $125+ to do it, and I don't trust anyone else...
