Good Mechanic in Chicago (West Suburbs / Wheaton / Glen Ellyn)
Hello all,
Looking for a good independent mechanic for a 997. I live in Wheaton, a western suburb of Chicago.
Thanks!
Dave

What are you looking to have done exactly? Just general maintenance or something special? Engine, suspension, tranny, etc. There are a few shops that specialize and some that are good for general work.
I'd call Joey at G Design in Elmurst or Sol at Perfect Power in Buffalo Grove.

Thanks, newGTS. Just a general guy for basic things... In my last 996 that I had, when I lived in La Grange, I had a guy I trusted (Mike and Henry's in Western Springs). He did basic work, but also some pretty involved stuff too which required dropping the engine, etc. I'm looking for someone I can trust for 80% of the stuff I'd encounter. Not tranny work, or anything that crazy, but almost everything in between.

does any shop in Chi town have the PIWIS system? I would like to install a new steering wheel and sport exhaust both of which require dealer activation, I believe. Rather not go to a dealer.
Thoughts?

I would rather avoid the dealership if possible. I have never used Napleton Porsche in Westmont for service (hear mixed reviews) and they are our local dealer.
If you find a shop that can do this, let me know!
