Eurovan Repair shops

 

after reading posts mentioning the growing paucity of reliable shops, I thought I'd put in a word for three I've had excellent experiences:
?
MAG VW? Dublin,OH?
?? This is my hometown dealer I've worked with the service manager Stan Ralph for 40 years of different VW's.? I'm sure that familiarity helps. Developing a? relationship one primary advisor and having mechanics with years of experience helps.? They have gone above and beyond what most places would do whether I'm in town or somewhere on the road to help and often work with on the phone a shop somewhere to help me out.
?
Konstruct Performance Inc? Santa Fe,NM
?? The above mentioned Stan Ralph called them to plead my case with this VW/Audio only independent shop.
?
Here's my review: ?1997 VW Eurovan full camper Visiting Santa Fe from Ohio when check engine light came on and engine stated missing. Checked the codes with my handy code reader(27 year old vehicle,good to carry one). Code said cylinders misfiring. Checked with 3 VW dealers and 4 independent shops in SF and Albuquerque. Konstruct was the only one that even works on Eurovans. They were scheduled 3 weeks out but brought me in for a diagnostic, offered to get the parts and had me fixed and on the road in 3 days. Great to work with, costs were right on the estimate. Cannot recommend them enough.
?
Integrity Import Service, Grawn, MI (Traverse City)
?
? Another independent shop welcoming Eurovans with excellent reputation.? I'm fortunate to have a second home near Grayling,MI where I also store the EVC winters.? I've used them for routine service and to track down dreaded check engine lights.? They are very accommodating.? Even give you a free loner car.
One note. If it's a CEL they have a standard $300 fee to find the problem. The actual repair cost is on top of that.
?
I hope this info may be of help.? If you do happen to go to MAG, ask for Celsea. She's my current? service advisor and mention my name: Elden Apling.? It couldn't hurt.
Before Chelsea, I had Bobby C. who spent a lot of time talking to shops around the country to find the best option? to rebuild my transmission.

Hello,
Thanks for this thread/forum. This is my first post...Regarding the list of garages/mechanics: it would be nice if there were a way to post a comment about the garage/mechanic.
Big Q in Santa Monica, CA should be avoided.? They might have had a mechanic in the past who worked on Eurovans, but just try to find a different garage.

My T4 = 95 EVC with lots of new parts over the last 5 years

There is a database of repair services, most of it imported from the Yahoo Group, so it's sadly out of date.? Only the last entry has been made since the move.

Raul’s German Auto in Santa Rosa, CA - there are other local German auto repair shops in the area but I haven’t used them or know if they work on EVs. Raul is great and very reasonable.

Richard Middleton at Cool Air Auto in Belton, Missouri rebuilt my Eurovan automatic transmission. Certainly one of the top VW auto trans builders in the country.
