Northern Virginia mechanics?

Anyone know of a place in Northern Virginia that can do a checkup and see if there's anything wrong for free or fairly low amount? Because it seems like the more I've let normal mechanics work on it the more problem that shows up. Saw rotary revolution around here in chantilly but don't know if they can do a checkup. Thanks.

Check out sticky #4 for mechanics in the NE. You will just have to spend some time looking through the info.

I do know of two in the Northern VA area...

the rotary revolution link was for the performancebuyers.com, that post was like 3 years ago so they might've changed names or that guy just mistyped. It's out by chantilly.

will they do a free estimate for repairs though?

^Oh, i get it.

To answer your question, i doubt a shop will do a free estimate for repairs. Usually, they will charge their standard diagnosis fee, per problem

RP performance....



As long as it not electrical and hes got time for you. Recently it seems like they save the better service the Miata Spec racing crowd. Guess the have deeper pockets. To bad I used to trust these guys.

If you have a 3rd gen go to PFS ask for Ray, or KDR but that's a haul .

To be honest with you, i don't know if they work on FC's...i can't remember if i saw any at the shop when i was up there, i remember a LOT of FD's. There might have been 1 or 2 FC's though.

They are located at 4995 Winchester Blvd. in Frederick, MD.

Ray does not work on FCs. They're a 3rd gen shop only. You want to go to Bret of RP Performance (http://www.rp-performance.com/). He's a real nice guy, and very honest and fair in pricing. Tell him Ramy sent ya
