Looking for some good Mini cooper mechanic in North Jersey don;t like {stealerships} Thanks Pat

 

Welcome to NAM, Pat! What MINI do you drive? This is the introduction section so give us some info and post some pictures when you can. I'm sure someone on here will have some good suggestions for you, but otherwise you can try looking in the east coast regional section of the forum here.

 

Welcome to NAM!

 

Welcome! If you don't mind a little highway time, we'd be happy to service your car. We're in Philly.

 

Helix is always a great choice but from North Jersey it's a bit of a schlep. But it is fun going there and they absolutely know what they are doing.

I have also had great success with:

ECP Auto Service—Frank DeSilva
794 Raymond Blvd, Newark, NJ 07105
(973) 589-5871

Frank is great and the times that I have used them they had no problem with installing my aftermarket parts at reasonable labor costs. And the car was always ready when they said it would be.

That also said, I have had good success with Prestige Mini recently. Yes, the costs are much higher than an independent but this issue was a bit complicated and I thought the dealer was the place to go. In this case they gave me a great loaner for almost a week. It's didn't take that long to fix but I couldn't get there to pick it up over a long weekend and they let me keep the car for 4 extra days until I could. Just say'n.

Motor On!

If you can connect with the local MINI club they can also point you to some indy shops.
