NYC shops that don't suck

Can anyone recommend a local indy rover expert who doesn't suck? I want to get the 60k service done, because it's too cold to do it in my driveway.

I lived in BK for a year and didn't find any thing I really liked. I spoke to the owner of this place http://rover-repair-nyc.com/rover-repair-nyc-facility.html they seem pretty good. Ed knows of a guy in westchester who has a shop and does mostly rovers.

talk to Harvey over at

i dont know anyone with good reputations in brooklyn or queens. sorry. and like jake said there is a guy up here in Mamaroneck in Westchester but that's even further than the Bronx.

Who's the guy in Westchester?

You can try getting in touch with Dan, aka INI88. He lives in queens, and might know someone

its going to be pretty warm this weekend and the 60k service really isnt that difficult if you want to tackle it yourself. The thing I like doing the least would be the coolant change. Im envious of your truck only having 60k on it lol.

if you cant find anyone you like local. a buddy of mine has a garage down here and we've already done all these things on mine with much success. Its a little bit of a ride but we're in Cherry Hill, NJ.

FYIW id switch to brass diff plugs, non dex cool coolant, and 8mm plug wires while its being wrenched on. I got my kingsborne wires and heat sleeves from Kingsborne.com for pretty cheap and they work great.

I've got 114,000 on the truck. but being the second owner, I think it makes sense to do the following:

Get rid of the Dexcool, change thermostat
Lube everything and change all fluids
Replace the serpentine belt, waterpump
plugs and plug wires

I was just hoping to have a responsible mechanic do it.... (I'm fully capable, and have every needed tool, but no lift or garage)

i have a garage but it's 100 years old and you can't fit a land rover in it. nor am i responsible in any means.

That doesn't just apply to land rovers.
