Good El Paso, TX mechanics?

[95DinanM3]

Since there are zero good mechanics where I live (Las Cruces), I figured I wouldn't driving about 50 miles for the assurance of a job done right. Need to have the car inspected and some small things fixed. I usually use Lenny at Redline Performance, but he is booked up for some time. Anyone have any recommendations?

Ask/pm Ralph for Philip's phone number, he is very reasonable and is very good at what he does and most importantly a very honest mechanic. He's the only guy that works on the e30s, e36s, e34s and e46s in our family. Philip's shop is off of Donophin between Sunland and Mesa so it's not too too far for you.

Cool thanks Ralph. I will definitely be giving him a call sometime this week to have my car looked at. I just wanted a general inspection of all the suspension bits, and my power steering rack has more than likely shit the bed

On a positive note, I will have Recaro Speeds in my car this weekend.

[95DinanM3]

Also, do you think he will be able to diagnose the issues that I have been having with my Wilwoods? No one else has so far.

What issues have you had?

What issues have you had?

I've had an intermittent grinding noise and crappy pedal pressure with a vibration. I checked for rocks in the pads or something along those lines, but have found nothing. I called Rob at UUC but he doesnt seem to know exactly what it could be; he suggested it might be the caliper. I hope not, as that sounds like an expensive fix.

[mpower001]

Interesting. I bet he can take a look and see what it might be. I am going to see him on Thursday and will mention to him you might be calling him.

Pics of the Recaros or Ban!!!

I gave him a call today, and am probably going to take my car around next week so he can have a look. Seems like a very knowledgeable guy; very patient with my stupid questions. jk.

I'd trust the guy with any of my cars, and Ralph is pickier than I am.
