Maybe a mid-life crisis?

When I had the olds in the shop for head and intake manifold gaskets the mechanic (a really good friend of mine) just wasn't havin a good week so one of the other guys in the shop that I trust did it...

Sometime there are bad spells...
Maybe he is going throguh a huge one...?

I talked to the aunt...
She told me that they take all of there vehicles to the local dealer for the specific make..
(they have one toyota, one VW, one Kia, And a Lincoln Navigator so...)
They use to take the navigator to a private guy but had the same issue as you, the guy kept crappin out on them...

Sorry I couldn't help...
I feel your pain though...

I have to drive a good hour to get to a good mechanic myself...
but he is damn worth it!!
Half the price of the stealership and twice as good of the work...
And actually knows a thing or two about a thing or two!!
