Calling all Denver diesel-heads

Back from Mexico and relocating from Colorado Springs to Denver.

Need some leads on indy repair/maint. for the 240D and the C220.

I know I am posting in the wrong place, but the Good Shops area does not have much traffic/visibility. If it's OK with the mod, let it ride here for a few days, then we can move it.

Looking forward to a GTG someday!

Thanks,

Clay

I believe each of these cars are the final production year for that model.

Star Tech is good. Stu Ritter's old shop on S. Inca (?) is still in business also I think. Check the yellow pages, it still has his name on it.
For an emissions test, Diesels Only on West Alameda is who I use. (this will give Lance a coniption) There's also another emissions test shop on West Hampden just west of Santa Fe.

FYI for those that probably didn't know, I used to work there. It's a real s*it hole, I got away from that place as soon as I got another job offer. Don't trust them for anything but an emissions test.

I've bought parts at German Motors but have never had a car fixed there. The parking lot is full of gassers each time I've been there and it looks clean (if that means anything).

I've just had an excellent experience with Austria Motors on Federal (just off sixth). It's run by two guys and has a very "click & clack" feel about it. They were recommended to me by a multiple 300d owner in Boulder who's never gone anywhere else and so far I agree with his assessment.

Just my $0.02 . Let us know what you choose!
