Default We'd be glad to have you, though we're not in Eagle Rock or Pasadena...

Many of our customers consider us to be worth the drive. We have regular customers who come from as far as Santa Barbara in the north, and San Diego in the south. We've been in Canoga Park for more than fifteen years, serving all of Southern California. I'm not sure who I can recommend that is in your immediate area, though I have some contacts left from my days working for Audi directly. If you choose to visit your local dealer service department for convenience, feel free to let me know if you have trouble. I can frequently assist in resolving things in a manner that is fair for everyone.

Of course, you're more than welcome to come see us in Canoga Park. We do get a shop rate with the nearest Enterprise Rental facility, so you can drive something for $20/Day while we attend to your own car. You can see a map of our location by clicking on the address as listed below.

Default Thanks to my Pop-WMS-IngolstadtWest

Thanks to Dad for posting this...while I was having trouble registering a Nick....

Thanks to Ingolstadt and Wicked...
Both shops sound like excellent choices...
...will definetly keep them in mind for future repairs.
I am trying a place in Burbank that is close to home...will let you all know how it goes.
Getting an estimate for a Water Pump and Oil Cooler?

WMS is very close to work, so I may have to stop in and chat for possible future work and mods.

Till then.

Water Pump is leaking...replacing the water pump, timing belt, thermostat. etc...

Cleaning out hoses and replacing some clamps for Oil Cooler...

The owner is definetly into Audi's...owns a pretty nice A4 Avant - b6..with many mods.
