Mechanic Recommendations? was created by tonybaroni
Any suggestions for how to find a decent mechanic? In the San Francisco Bay Area, I've been challenged in getting decent work done and I suspect I've been scammed a few times by who I thought was my trusted mechanic. I only have a passing interest in doing the work myself, anyone have good experience with mid peninsula shops?

Here, is a map of shops that use the methods taught by Paul, aka ScannerDanner.

I have learned more by being wrong, than I have by being right. :-)
