Mechanic/help near Thousand Oaks, SoCal?
A friend of mine visiting from Sweden (userid: sweanders) is stuck with my car far away from my location due to coolant leak.
Does anybody know of a good mechanic (or nearby enough to assist) near his current location? He is at Newbury Park, California (Southern California, very close to the city of Thousand Oaks)

Joe,
There's a shop the PO of my 944S used just north of Thousand Oaks in Simi Valley. They aren't strictly German but very familiar with 944's or at least they did most major servicing including his belts, AC, tensioner pad, etc. Good luck, hopefully it's not the side tank on the radiator leaking like mine did.

Thanks for the recommendations, guys! I sent my friend to Rusnak Porsche (they have one of their many dealerships in Westlake), and the mechanic fixed the car and got him back on the road. He showed up at 5:15pm on a tow truck (45minutes before closing) and sent him out on the road by 6:30pm -- pretty fast work!
