any recommendations on a good mechanic shop in BR? Need to replace a rear oil seal on a Suburban. Only quote I have is from a dealership. Don't know if it's highway robbery or not. TIA

How big of a leak is it? If it's pretty small, I would try atp-205 first

it is.


Agco Automotive. Best people. Just don't roll up in a lifted heavily modified ride. They will tell you to go elsewhere.

It's not BR, but Lee's Car Care in Walker is the place I've gone to for years. Fast, honest worker and prices his fast honest work honestly. He's worth the extra trip imo.

Go see Mark at University Car Care. Been there forever, very honest, and an engineering grad from LSU.

I’ve heard good things about Christian Brothers automotive on Airline Highway off of Barringer Foreman. Not the cheapest, but deliver quality work.

Wally’s is solid if you don't want to have to go to Mt Pilot. They have a gay mechanic but he is very good AND a great singer.

Go see Gary at Goodyear on Coursey. Just picked up my burb today. New tires, AC stuff. They always do solid work.

Agco or Seigan Car Care in your area or Regusa's on Government.You are probably looking at 600-800.
