Good shop here in IL is Ron Potenzo's Auto Repair at 15324 S. Cicero in Oak Forest (708-687-9000) Good work at honest prices...a refreshing change after having dealt with other area shops...

Question-if a shop has been recommended in this thread and someone else has had a bad experience with that same shop, should the bad experience be spelled out in this forum?

To the Forum: Some of you are posting suggestions for shops that work on the 928, and I appreciate that.
But without their phone number, I dont have the time to hunt these guys up.
I will not put any shop on our list unless I have spoken to them directly.
If you have a shop that has done good work for you, please show them this link:
http://www.928motorsports.com/parts/superinstall.cfm
...and tell them to call me at 920-485-0928 to get on the list. There is no charge to be listed.

I call each shop you suggest before I list them, just to make sure they want to be listed.
This one:
said they do not work on 928's any more.
Please keep your suggestions coming! Remember to include their phone number so I can contact them.
Again, being listed on our page costs nothing. I just do it as a service to 928 owners.
The page I am talking about was listed in Post 1 of this thread, here it is again for your convenience:

Richard James started life as a Porsche mechanic and by the sounds of it will die with a Porsche part in his hands, excellent service and doesn't charge like a normal Porsche mechanic would, knows the 928 very well, last time I was there he had 3 in the shop.

I can recommend Dave from St Charles, IL hes a great guy plus a great mechanic. Hes resurrected several 928s that I know of plus he's a mechanic of 30 plus years and very knowledgeable. His number is 630-695-2408. Im sure several others from Illinois can chime in.

Rennlisters:
We have been maintaing this directory of shops that still service the Porsche 928Have a look at it here, it is sorted by State.
http://www.928motorsports.com/parts/superinstall.cfm
This list is a real benefit to the new 928 owner, or to anyone who struggles to own one if they cannot do their own work.
Tell me: are you aware of any good shops that we are missing from the list?
No shop is added to the list without me contacting them personally first to be sure they want more 928 traffic. Unfortunately, I have no way to judge their competency. But, its a start.
Your feedback welcome.
