I need to have my tranny fluid, brakes and oil changed. Anyone have any mechanics around that they recommend?

I would love to do this on my own but Arling said lucent can't do the tranny oil change so it leads me to believe that there are some special toosl involved... i'm going to read the shop manual when I get home... Anyone wanna come over and help me? haha dinner is on me!

If you are in Northridge try out TRE Motorsports in North Hollywood. Ask for Jeremy the service manager.

My car is there now...(you can read the post about my car troubles) but they are a good shop.

Totally, I need someone to de-press my brakes when I'm dipping the fluids...... BUT I will have two sessions, the removal (3-days later) I should have freshly redone brakes. At that point I'll start the install....

Want to be there for the install? I think I'll be starting this project next week.... Say maybe Tuesday...

I have a list of parts if you need them as well....

David, you're better off taking in the trans......

I don't know what time I'm starting on the brakes but I think it will be before 4PM.... :cry:

Still interested? I might still be working on them around 4PM.
