There are 5 mechanics within walking distance of my home. Today I went to Holly Hills Auto having been to all other 4 ,and was really impressed. I have lived in this neighborhood since 1970 and it was the first time I haven't been talked into work I didn't need and was shown the problems that needed fixing - I was shown the nail in the tire, I was shown the gasket that was leaking and could see the oil, I was shown the dry brittle old drive belts that needed replacing. I went in telling them what I was told before needed fixing and was convinced that the problems they fixed were the cause (ie the noise wasn't from the motor mounts, but from the belts, the oil leaking was a gasket not the oil pan) I will never go anywhere else again!
