Default Any good Porsche mechanics in Vancouver?

Hey guys,

Shopping for used Cayenne...MCL motors wants 1K for a full compression test...any indy shops out there that would do it for less?

Thanks

Manny

A buddy just had a 996 C4S inspected at Weissach, the entire situation has turned into a bit of a debacle with them scraping a telephone pole while backing the car out of the garage. Long story short he payed for the car over three weeks ago and has yet to see it..

Wouldn't rule them out for one minor mishap. **** happens! Maybe do a little more digging before writting them off!

Suggest you try James Daniels at Scan Automotive in North Vancouver. There shop is rated one of the best independants for Porsche. They are Porsche enthusiasts and great supporters of Canada West PCA Region also.

My car is there at the moment
Guys there seem honest and upfront about costs so far. Hoping to get the car back this week. Been there for a week so far.
