    i would not go to dubwerks, they are overraated

    try Jason @ mobile one in Glenview
    http://www.mobileoneinc.com/

    of course if you want a VW/Audi shop do it

    i have friends in Wilmette who own a shop in Wilmette, they do awesome job
    it's one of those gas station shops.
    their number is 847-256-2274, tell them Yev referred you, they would give you a good deal. are you going to bring your own parts

    Do you guys know of any brake shops that are willing to re-surface (1) BRAND NEW frickin slotted rotor?
    Or as an alternative, anyone with a lathe? I'll cut this piece of shit rotor myself if I have to...

    One of msy BRAND NEW fricking rotor makes it sound like I'm driving next to a semi that's perpetually hitting his engine brake.
    THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD-thank goodness it's a rear.
    If anyone's got a shop that will do this please PM me the details.

    Thanks-

    Not to threadjack, but I am located in your area too, and need to find a good Audi service shop. My timing belt job is in the near future, does anyone know of an all around good shop with good price for a simple tbelt job on AEB 1.8T? If not I'll just do the job myself.

    If you can do the work yourself, do it. Why you gonna pay someone to do stuff you can do?

    Current: 2009 Black Ford Mustang GT - Stock
    Sold: 2000 Audi S4 Quattro Sedan - Light Silver - Stock as hell.
    Sold: 2003 SVT Cobra Mustang - Sonic Blue - Not even CLOSE to stock.

    Jason @ Mobile One (He knows his shit)
    Renn-Art is horrible, they basically had a locals car burn to the ground because of their shitty fab work.

    too cold in my garage, no lathe. If it was warmer I would have done all the parts replacing myself @ home.
    The next on my mod list is actually for the garage...a gas heater!
