I brought the car in the past for differential oil, spark plugs, air filter, clutch maintenance and brakes. They did a thorough inspection and did the parts that were needed. This is the fourth time I have brought my 2017 WRX in and this time they did coolant exchange and oil change and so far so good!

I have been working on cars my entire life. I rarely have work done by a shop if I can do it myself but this job was out side of what I was comfortable with. Do you know a shop that gives a 3yr / 36,000 mile warranty on the work they do? Does your shop order you an Uber/Lyft to pick you up? Do you want to get a customer for life! Because that is how you get a customer for life! Did we just become best friends! Yep! Thank you Brian, Elaine and Calvin. You are amazing!
