Ironically, my buddy who drives a heavily modded '90 Nissan Z had his car inspected here last week. They didn't even look under the car and passed it. Weirdos

The most obvious advice I can give you, is to tell the dealer to **** off and go find a reliable local mechanic. I avoid the dealership like a plague - support your local shops.

I noticed he didn't have an entry on Yelp. If you had a good experience, write him a review. The guy is awesome and he deserves some good PR.

Source for cheap/used parts?

Looking for a drivers side rear caliper for my B5 A4. I've never had luck with junkyards as there seems to be so little chance of finding exactly what is needed.

Any ideas?
