hey guys. gonna look at a car tomorrow. I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good place to take if for a PPI in case the car is worth getting checked out. I am kind of disenchanted with my mechanic right now and dont know of any others in the providence area....disenchanted with German Motors in prov too. thanks! Riff, where do u go?
btw, the car is an '86 turbo 200,000mi but 12,000mi on rebuilt engine. wants no less then $5,800fusches, new seats. ill see what else it has....

Hi Ryan-

I do all my own work so I have not taken my car to anyone in the area. Too bad about German Motors, I had heard good things about them.

Not to sound like a smarta$$, but what are you looking for in a PPI that you cannot figure out for yourself? Compression/leakdown? The checklist on the FAQ is pretty comprehensive.

If you want another set of eyes/ears, I'd love to lend a hand.

Best,

Ryan Z

hmmm, i was pretty sure you did all your work....and yeah, I felt that I was pretty versed in finding problems.....but it's for a friend his peice of mind. and yeah, was thinking in terms of compression and such. im going to meet the guy w/ my friend tomorrow in cranston/prov line if you want to come, hehe.
