does anyone know a mechanic who specializes in Mitsubishi cars in the LA area or even Orange county? or a dealer tech who does side jobs?

I just want someone who knows their way in a galant. and i want to avoid the dealer....

^ Needs timing re-done.


Dealer wants about $400 around here for parts and labor it isn't too bad.

Since most mechanics charge $200 and parts can easily be $100. $100 isn't mind to have peace of mind it's getting done right.

Go to Glendale Mobil 901 S. Brand Blvd and ask for Arthur. Tell him I sent you (Kimya) and he'll take good care of you. When I lived down there he fixed anything wrong with my car..he too is a Mitsu guy, he has one of the cleanest Starions around. you may have seen his car at MOD too

The red one is his

the dealer charge is $410 for just the timing belt, other belts and seals are additional, close to $600. plus, i'm sure they will find something wrong when they open it up, then at that time, i'm stuck with the dealer.

i work in burbank, i can drop by glendale on the way home. thanks for the info.

Trust me...you won't take you car anywhere else after that. He does it all, so if you have trans issues, engine, simple oil change...he can handle it. And whatever he can't do, he has such a great rep, he has connections for other things. Paint, collision, exhaust...you name he knows it

My office is only 2 miles from Krispy Kreme. I'd like to go to the meets, but weekdays don't work for me. I went to one in Downey last year, I was able to make that one because I was on vacation the next day.
