    Thanks for another great job Jimmy! I picked it up while you were out.

    The car feels much better, and I am happy to know about the other issues I have to get fixed.

    I need to replace both rear trail arm bushings...does Jimmy carry bushings, or do i buy them from the dealership and bring it to him?

    The dealership wants 550 to replace them both, though i do get a 10% discount on the parts and labour. I wonder if it'll be cheaper with Jimmy.

    Who said they need replacing?

    Jimmy can probably order them after taking a look at the bushings or better is to take the bushings to him for install if you're sure they need replacing. Buy with TM3 discount and install at ST. Jimmy's price be cheaper.

    Thanks for the info.

    The dealership told me to replace them, they were doing a service three weeks ago and mentioned they both needed replacing.

    How do you know the dealership wasn't trying to scam you? Just get Jimmy to check before wasting the coin unnecessarily.

    Banged up my rear suspension real bad during the ice storm, went to a dealer that wanted to charge me $1500 for the job to replace the parts! Came to Jimmy for second opinion, and walked away a REALLY HAPPY and completely satisfied client!

    I definitely recommend Jimmy, anytime! Thank you Jimmy.

    I went to Jimmy's after reading these reviews. I just bought an 06 hatch and needed some work done before driving on the road. I thought the safety switch would need to be replaced but all it needed was some cleaning.

    I also thought I needed a new oxygen sensor due to a CEL, but I guess its intermittent and was recommended to come back for a fix when the light won't turn off, to be sure the solution is to replace the part.

    Thank you Jimmy! Very much appreciate your work and honesty!

    Thanks jimmy for swapping out the broken motor mount. Vibrations are all gone and the car doesn't shake like a tractor.

    Left my car for Jimmy to swap an engine for me. He was able to find an engine for me for a good price. At the same time, I got my clutch, serp belt, ac belt, coolant, tranny fluid, and cabin filter changed for a great price.

    Car runs like a brand new car and I loving the car again. Jimmy did a great job and everything was done quickly and with top notch quality.

    Thanks Jimmy!

    you guys think jimmy would be mad if i got my car towed to there tonight?

    i called him earlier but no answer... it is sunday evening after all. my car won't start and its sitting in a mall... i can't keep it there for another night or ill probably get a ticket.. and i don't think the tow truck driver would be able to angle it in properly at my place since even i have to double check every time i park basically.

    Nope he won't mind. Give the key to the tow truck driver and he'll put it in the key slot for Jimmy. Have done this before. Just give him a call in the morning after 9:30 am.
