Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys. Just picked up a new to me immaculate 2003 996. Looks as it did back then. I am looking for a good independent shop here in san diego. I would like to update/replace the IMS and new clutch while in there. I can do an internet search obviously but am looking for firsthand experience recommendations. What other while your in there items should I consider. thanks and ill post pix tomorrow.

POST 2Original post

POST 3Original post

Not sure about the city, but head a little North and I have a guy in Temecula who is great.

Also in Temecula, curious who you're indy is? Tom's Foreign Auto is who I have been going to for years (Benz, BMW and now Porsche).

POST 5Original post

Hey Bterry, Here's three recommendations: I live in North County (Oceanside) and have a 2003 C2. I had my indy do the IMSB and a bunch of other stuff. He's not cheap, and he may drive you nuts (he's got a millions stories), but work quality is top notch. Konig Motorsport 1555 S Coast Hwy 101 Oceanside, CA 92054 Neighborhood: Oceanside [phone removed] konigmotorsport.com Ask for the owner, Denny. Also, Black Forest Automotive is top notch: 8066 Engineer Rd, San Diego, CA 92111 [phone removed] Third recommendation: European Motorsports: 2588 Progress St #11, Vista, California 92081 [phone removed] They do my tech inspections for track events. I have a pretty long laundry list of "while you're in there" stuff to replace for a 10 year old car (hoses, water pump, AOS, plugs, etc.). Send me a PM if you need any additional info.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Ill let you know how it goes.

POST 7Original post

Black Forest is my shop. They are excellent, and very familiar with 996-specific issues.

POST 8Original post

Another vote for Black Forest. They kept my 1980 911 SC going past 375,000 miles. I now have a 2002 996 which I take to Black Forest. Very knowledgeable, very honest, reasonable prices.

Tom is a straight forward honest guy. Maybe not the cheapest, but he has experience and is a car aficionado. Highly recommended.
