Auto Repairs: Specialist or Generalist

ISO advice!
I am a single mom and needing a reliable mechanic. Can anyone recommend a good reliable mechanic? I am needing my electronic throttle control replaced! I know the part is about $300 and should be about 1-2hrs of labour but I don't want to pay dealership price to get it fixed! Any advice is greatly appreciated smile emoticon

  • Chris J. Slater Hi Yenita Ferguson, what is the make and model? It's better to deal with a specialist who knows that unit, than a generalist.

  • Chris J. Slater Oftentimes KNOWING where to tap (a specialist with make and model appropriate training) can SAVE you big time, money or irritation over a shade tree person who thinks he, she, it knows it all and is willing to learn on your job, at your expense. There are many people who are qualified including other diy owners, but if you don't give make, model and year expect incompetence.
