My brother had his '83 Euro worked on in Mon-Reeall and they charged a fortune, didn't replace his heater hoses - he said "replace ALL the hoses", didn't tighten his CV bolts - result: tow in with halfshaft hanging, kept it all winter, oil pan bolts loosened up - result: huge oil leak after their pan gasket job... I don't know shop's name, but it is supposed to be a Porsche "race" shop and is likely near McGill as he works there. Since then he has had a place in Burlington VT work on it with success. He actually lives in the States but foolishly thought a "big city" expert would be better than a VT tractor mechanic. Since the 928 is, in a way, kind of old-fashioned, a tractor mechanic with brains is not a bad idea. BTW, a heater hose failed - result: another tow in. These tows were avoidable by competent repair. This was high butchery.
