6/17/2011 9:00:53 AM

And replied! See you in the morning.

I'll be at the shop and somewhat available this weekend. Give me a shout if you need anything.

6/17/2011 11:38:49 AM

i wish i was in the US... i would drive up to a 1,000 miles to have my car fixed by you. no joke.

paid a $2,053 bill a couple of weeks ago at Toyota dealership to have a bunch of stuff replaced, and they are saying they found more stuff that needs to be fixed replaced which would cost another 2-2.5K. (actually, they are saying $4K for all stuff they found, but 2-2.5K for the important ones)

FML

maybe i could post the list of items they gave me and ask if they are/can be essential? but i don't see how this could work seeing as how you can't see my car.

RAV4, btw, 2005, with 130K miles.

6/17/2011 12:54:28 PM

Post away. I'll be glad to help however possible!

6/17/2011 1:41:23 PM

Can I get a quote to get the throttle body removed and cleaned, MAF sensor cleaned, and have the hoses checked for vacuum leaks? Trying to get the "zoom zoom" back in my Mazda 3.

6/18/2011 4:29:41 PM

I still do car work! LOL

6/28/2011 1:07:24 PM

Do you know how to replace timing belts on 2002 Honda Accord Coupe EX V6??? I need to get that done desperately, as I think I'm beyond past due, but lack $800 that Honda is gonna charge me. I've yet to find someone confident enough to attempt it, so I need a skilled person. Is this you?

6/29/2011 1:35:45 AM

Yep, this is definitely me. I got no problem doing any Honda timing belt, and have done lots of them. And yes, I'll be cheaper than you can find at shops. PM coming...

6/29/2011 9:01:02 AM

I too need a timing belt. I'm willing to help and supply beer plus I'll pay cash. Can you pm me with your availability?

pm sent oh god please respond before tuesday.

my 92 Corvette LT1 has some electrical issues that I can't seem to figure out. When turning sharply around curves, the interior lights are coming on, then immediately going out once the car is straightened out.

I'm not sure you work on electrical issues, but I figure I'd throw it out there...

and it's a low-priority job. Both my gf and I have other cars, so it's our sunday driver.

How much would it be to get the brakes changed on all four wheels on a 2007 Saturn Aura? I'm not asking for myself, asking for my g/f who was recently told by a Saturn dealer that her breaks were in 'dire need of being changed for only $500 dollars' . They said whoever did it would need to resurface the disks and to only buy OEM brakes. I would imagine she or we could just buy new pads and disks and have someone with the tools to slap them on for quite less than that. If I'm wrong, then I apologize for my ignorance.

6/30/2011 6:42:52 PM

^ It was $600, actually.

6/30/2011 9:06:35 PM

you never got back at me about checking out both mine and piddlebug's vehicles

7/1/2011 9:43:20 PM

Hey I pm'd you about car work. Please get back to me. Thx!

zxappeal and Jeepman replaced my 4Runner timing belt a couple years ago. They do good work and it was definitely worth it for the peace of mind.

This is exactly the type of thing that I would recommend Dan and/or Matt for. The parts are relatively cheap, but it's labor intensive.

Thanks for the plug, Andy. We appreciate all the business you've given us.

ajsimeon...replied!

7/12/2011 2:14:10 PM

Dan has replaced timing belts on two of my vehicles, EGR/O2 sensors on two of my vehicles, and has helped with several sets of brake pads.

I cannot endorse him or his work enough.

If only he accepted payment in handjobs... (actually he might, I just didn't ask)

7/12/2011 3:59:47 PM

Thanks, Ronny. I wanna pull the front cover on your car again and make absolute sure that everything lines up to see if we can get to the bottom of that code.

^yeah, you're pretty special. Short bus special.

7/14/2011 9:34:59 AM

sorry, obvious joke was obvious, forgot this was classifieds and not garage or chit chat

7/14/2011 12:28:53 PM

BTTT.

7/18/2011 2:57:27 PM

I have a 94 mustang. I think I have a rear main seal leaking. Any chance you do that?

7/18/2011 3:27:56 PM

Yep, but it won't be cheap. The transmission has to come out to do that one. Do you have an automatic or stick?

7/18/2011 3:39:40 PM

I don't expect cheap work for good work. See my PM.

7/18/2011 8:22:25 PM

And PM replied. So far, I'm available to do work tonight, tomorrow night, and Thursday night. Let me know if you need anything.

7/19/2011 9:16:10 AM

do you know how to fix air conditioners in an early 90's Mercedes?

7/19/2011 11:57:56 AM

Yep, I do, but it won't be cheap. PMing you on this one.

7/19/2011 12:04:58 PM

Putting in a plug for zx. He's helped me with my car and with my wife's. We did tonight the right front wheel bearing and tomorrow we've gotta do the left cv shaft.

Great rates, great conversations, but terrible gas.

7/21/2011 1:04:57 AM

I guess I should have warned you. I ate half a pound of bacon and four eggs for dinner.

7/21/2011 9:13:58 AM

Bad gas is something I can live with, expensive car repairs, I can not.

Choose zx!

7/21/2011 3:01:20 PM

Thank you, kind sir. I'm tickled that the CV shaft solved a lot of problems. That one was WORN OUT.

7/22/2011 9:42:00 AM

you got pm!

7/23/2011 9:29:20 AM

Folks, it looks like I'm out of commission for a while...I've got a deep vein thrombosis (blood clot) in my right leg, and I'm not able to do anything serious for a while. This is sucking big time.

7/26/2011 6:49:43 PM

sorry man, get well soon.

7/26/2011 9:22:24 PM

oh snap man...a blood clot is no joke....get better!

7/26/2011 11:20:48 PM

Sorry to hear that Dan. Get better soon.

7/27/2011 11:42:17 AM

damn, sorry to hear this man. i was looking for some help, but your health is certainly more important. get well soon!

7/31/2011 2:30:16 PM

If the doc says it's okay this afternoon, I might have to get back to doing car work.

8/5/2011 12:47:38 PM

I hope it turns out alright.

8/5/2011 12:52:12 PM

And I'm back doing some of the lighter stuff. If you need anything, give me a shout. If I can't handle it, I'll let you know!
