Need a good soob repair shop in SE PA

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I live in NE philadelphia and I am looking for either a good mechanic looking for some extra work or a repair shop that knows subaru's well, we have used a father and 2 sons for a number of years but they just flat out admit they don't know subies, oil changes, breaks fine, otherwise.

 

Anyway I had them look at the brakes and they said the pads where fine front and back but I am getting a not very loud whistling type sound from the drivers side front wheel area, sound goes away when the brakes are applied. I would also like a new set of spark plugs and maybe wires.

 

Thanks a bunch, Jay.

I actually have 2 I would like to have some work done on in time

 

 

 

Number one: 1996 Subaru Impreza Outback 2.2l this is a car we are stuck on, we really like it and we are probly going to keep this car for a while, 123k purchased last april with 103k replaced the clutch, tires, brakes.

 

 

Car needs: Timing belt and all the stuff that goes with

Axles to be replaced in front both sides because of

split boots

 

 

Numer Two: 1998 Impreza L 166k, nice car rides nice we are considering parting ways.

 

 

Car needs: timing belt gig could probably be done but may have been done at 105k

Wheel making that annoying noise

 

 

 

 

Some other stuff I would like to have done on both as funds become available, also I may have a contact to get genuine Subaru parts from the corporate distribution center for a lot less than stealerships charge, unsure just yet how much I can get it's a tenuous relationship. I know I can get some just not sure how much. Thanks a bunch, you guys are always very helpful.
