Import Speciality Auto has always been extremely fair and competent in their work for me. I am learning to do more of the tasks myself however the timing belt and rear main seal work will go to them. I don't mind paying to have something important done right.

I'll have to pull this recommendation. 1.Rolled an o ring on my new oil cooler lines, lost all my oil a week later. 2. Installed a new fuel pump and rolled the gasket seal. Filling the tank caused fuel to spill out from the top of tank at the fuel pump seal. Import is a little too cavalier on this. Said this is one of our best mechanics. I would rather a hole in the wall garage where the mechanics pay attention do my work from now on. A Volvo Certificate doesn't matter if you can make these mistakes and say oh well to your customers. Business must be good. Since my first post I did do my timing belt and water pump myself. I opted for convenience though when my fuel pump died and needed to be towed.
