WA-Looking for mechanic in Tacoma
I know this is a long-shot, but can anyone recommend a good (affordable) mechanic or shop in the Tacoma, WA area?
Thanks in advance!

My tech that I go to works at Lexus of Fife and does jobs on the side as well at his place. I get all my services done through him. If you want his number PM me.
Hey Jussjoshin.....I gotta get in touch with you as I haven't found a trusted shop in Oly to work on my car. It would be nice to be able to drop my car off when I am at work and pick it up after........
My current tech lives out on South HIll and sometimes its a hassle but I trust him and he charges cheap.

For non Lexus-specific work, I use Walt's in Olympia. I know what you're thinking. Walt's?
I wouldn't use any other Walt's, but the one in downtown Oly is a great shop.
The techs know their stuff, and they are a very honest business.
I once took my car in expecting to need new brakes. They found a plastic cup stuck between the caliper and rotor. Charged me 1/2 hour labor and all was good. (They could have screwed me on that one, as I was sure the brakes were shot).
I've had many other good experiences with them, as well.
I haven't had a Lexus-specific issue that I've had them deal with yet, but for "general maintenance" stuff, they do a good job. They're quick and affordable.

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to the site and to WA. I have an 02 ES300 that needs some work and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good mechanic in the Tacoma area. I PM'd sway162 but I haven't received a response. Thanks in advance for your help.
