My son is attending UC Santa Barbara and having some problems with his 944 at school. I'm looking for a competent mechanic in or around the area who won't try and take advantage of him. He describes a loud clicking noise when he accelerates with the car in gear. It doesn't happen when the clutch is engaged and isn't tied to engine speed. I'm guessing it may be a CV joint problem, but since I'm in the SF Bay Area, I haven't seen the car. It's an 86.5 944 5 spd. If anyone can help with a trusted mechanic, I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks,

Paul M.

Call Danno. Well, maybe not call (I'm not going to put his phone # on a public forum like this), but just go to the homepage for Guru Racing - his e-mail contact information is there. Either that or you can send him a PM through here.

Thanks! I'll check it out.

Go Pats!

His name isn't Max is it? I helped that kid with some random cut-out problems and changing brake-pads. We swapped out the DME relay and waiting to see if it dies at the same frequency.

Anyway, have him send me an email, my phone's out this weekend.

Dannos a great guy too and knows his stuff as well. both are great options.

Yep, Joe Scheider and his staff are competent and honest people. I use them too, when things get a little "overwhelming" for me.
