    Not sure what they can do there, they weren't even comfortable replacing my trans fluid & filter on my Passat which I could do in my driveway but I was being lazy

    I ended up going to Wizard Werks and they did a great job:

    Looking for a shop to do some work on my 2005 B6 S4
    Jason (owner) will hook you up. They worked on my BMW (big brake kit) and a lot of my Audi's (my B6 S4 had JHM tune, full Milltek cats/exhaust - my A4's for oil changes). Very reasonable and a lot faster than the guys across the street. The other place got purchased by the used dealer and prices went up and they are slow.

    I just moved to the Toledo, OH area and can't find a decent shop. Although, the Sylvania dealership does work with StaSis. Any suggestions?

    By far some of the most professional guys I've ever talked to. They do full service along with custom fab work/builds. They have some crazy equipment as well, looks "state of the art." My very good friend went through them to have his NASA spec E46 M3 built along with their other E36 M3 NASA track car. Plus, their waiting room has a huge tv with a nice xbox setup for forza (Evo Recaro seat w/ harness, pedals, and wheel lol) or at least it did the last time I was there. Just visit the website and view their gallery, you'll see the LSB M3 with a wicked custom cage they did, along with other work they've done.

    I've had 3 of my audi's serviced here for years now, both of the Benz go here to get routine maintenance. The owners name is Alex. You'll know who he is once you meet him. Real genuine guy. Straight from Deutschland. He services all high end Euro's, and has just about every one in his "showroom". They've done just about everything for me from timing belts, to brakes, to tires, coolant leaks, oil changes, etc. He will be honest with you and very up front.

    Seriously only one shop in Wisconsin and it's out in Madison? Isn't there anything closer to milwaukee that you guys reccomend? I'm in need of a radiator replacement and Kummow Automotive quoted me $930 for parts and labor (radiator and upper and lower hoses + coolant) 3.1 hours later. I think I need to find a new shop! Please help me out.

    I would like to request that this opinion be removed from the top of this post, whose intentions should aspire to remain informative. Lets drop opinions in posts below the list, shall we?

    These guys completely screwed me out of my time. I scheduled several weeks in advance for a Saturday when they could replace my front control arms, tie rods, and break pads - and I would get my car back in the early evening. We agreed on a date and I followed up the Friday leading to the appointment to verify that everything would still go as scheduled. I showed up at 10:00am when they asked me to, and one of them (Josh) was good enough to show up at 10:30am - first sign I should have just walked away.

    We shot the shit for a bit when he got there, and I found out they they are doing a lot of work for a used car dealer - second sign I should have walked away. He continued to assure me my car would be done that evening after we went over everything that needed to be done. I called at 5:00pm to see how things were coming, and this time Jason answered the phone and told me they hadn't begun working on my car, and that it "would probably" be ready the next day (Sunday). I drove out and picked up my untouched car and drove back home.

    I'm speculating here but I've got to believe that they wouldn't have been lieing to me the entire time. I think the used car dealer told them they needed to prioritize one of their cars and in order to (somewhat understandably) maintain business with a steady source of income, they pushed me back. These guys didn'g value my time, and clearly don't need my business.

    I'd stay away from them unless you have a very relaxed schedule and don't care about people keeping their agreements.

    Had a great experience with Dynarev today. They came and picked up my car from work and had it back to me within a few hours. Had the oil changed and rear brakes done with parts I supplied. Great service, even better pricing, punctual and very pleasant to deal with. Would definitely recommend these guys.

    Damn that's a good price. Can't find anyone good to work on my M for under $90/hr.
