I was planning on going to a dealership to get it checked-out/ fixed because I thought the repairs would be more reliable (there's got to be some reason they cost so much, right?), but I had some doubts based on the sloppy service I had there last time. I searched around for coupons, called for a price ($160 just for diagnostic), and opened up the online appointment page. Then I decided to check some reviews. \n\nBased on the reviews here and on the Car Talk Mechanic Files page, I decided to check out Precision Performance. When I called their number I was greeted by a really nice, easy-to-understand guy who told me I could just bring in my car and they'd check out the error codes for me without an appointment. The next day I brought my car to them. There were several people in the waiting room, but the guy behind the desk took my keys and checked the car. A few minutes later, he called me outside and told me that the codes were all emission control errors (which I already knew because I had brought the car into Autozone for a free readout). He said that a lot of times those errors are faulty and since I didn't need my smog test for another year, he turned them off and told me to come back if I have any more trouble with it or anything else. He shook my hand and told me to have a great day.\n\nMan! It was so easy and was the best automotive customer service I've had...maybe ever. The engine light has stayed off so far, and I'm so relieved I didn't end up paying a bunch of money for nothing. I'm definitely going to return to Precision Performance."^^ . . "5"^^ . "0"^^ .
