Talking Independant Lexus repair shops in Los Angeles ??

Aside from the Lexus dealerships, where do you guys take your cars for service, tune-ups, oil changes, and major engine repairs?

I used to take my BMW to a great local BMW only shop. But what about Lexus only shops? Very hard to find.

I live in Northridge, Ca but will goto any shop in Los angeles or surrounding areas.

I am looking for the same.

I did take my car to a place in San Pedro called Toyota specialists for a while, but when they flushed my transmission they put dexron in it, which I guess isn't the most healthy thing you can do for a toyota transmission. That's about the only thing bad about them, but they are good w/ customers and are great people.

I'm looking elsewhere next time I think.

I take mine to a private mechanic. He's the best that I know of.

yes, same here, i only trust one guy working on my car. oddly enough, he's a family friend that works for arco! hehe

seriously though, whenever any of my lexus cars have a problem, he troubleshoots it right away. he is the guy who changed all the fluids and belts OEM for cheap.
