Diesels Only

The worst service I have ever had. I dropped off my truck because it was smoking, not only did they charge me 3 total hours shop time to «diagnose» the problem, they replaced all the injectors, and 2 glow plugs. The called me after the work and said my turbo was bad because it was still smoking. They wanted to charge me an additional $ 2200 for a turbo and $ 600 to install it. The turbo worked great when I dropped it off so I felt I was being deceived. So I picked up the truck and paid the $ 2400. When the mechanic started it up the intake to the turbo was still disconnected and it was smoking everywhere, still. I got the truck back to my shop and found that the following items were not completed, but they were billed for;
1. Oil change and top off fluids, not completed
2. Replace air filter, original dirty air filter still in place,
3. Replace fuel filter, not completed
4. One fuel line to one of the injectors was leaking fuel on the top of the motor
5. Replaced 2 relays, completed
6. Coolant level was at 5%
7. Glow plugs? Not sure, but the truck was smoking very bad so I assume this was not done
I asked for a refund for the items not completed. They told me that they wanted to fix the issues and would not refund me anything. I said they lost credibility and I did not feel comfortable having them work on my truck. They said call a lawyer. I have dropped my truck off at a more credible mechanic to diagnose the incomplete work. I am posting pictures of the truck and my findings on facebook.

Good prices good job

Today was the third time I’ve brought my Dodge here for an emission test. As usual, the test was performed immediately and without an appointment. The staff was friendly and the test was still just $ 50.

Once again these guys come through with their best feature: cost. $ 50 for an emissions test is the cheapest you will find in the entire city. Call a day ahead to make an appointment and Joe will do it himself in ten minutes.
Joe isn’t some shirt & tie wearing business manager who works the front office. He is about as rough and dirty as the rest of the shop. The lights are dim, the pop machine doesn’t work, and the seats aren’t comfortable. But these guys aren’t here to impress you with their good looks. They’re here to work.
I’ve been taking my truck here for two years and have had my glow plugs replaced, brakes replaced, emissions tested and oil changed. Their workmanship is solid and I have never had a problem with their work after the fact.
Alan also owns a few wholesale shops and salvage yards. This allows him to get the lowest prices on parts in the city. Their labor price is comparable to all other shops. Cost is key when you own a heavy duty truck, so go to these guys if you want to save money and get good service.
(FYI – they have worked on my 1996 F-​250 PSD 7.3L)
