Car Service
Hi! Whats the best place to go for regular car service? Those of us here who are from NJ/NY/PA know about STS and thats where I went to for the last 10 years...great people, never ripped you off, if something didn't need fixing, they'll tell you, so looking for something like that. Im in Southside, off Touchton Road so any recommendations would be appreciated! by the way, i have a toyota sienna, if car style matters. Thanx!

for routine or major services? the car dealers here aren't that evil or overpriced compared to joe chain lube change. call the toyata dealers near your area to get some price quotes and see if that's comparable.
I stopped going to chain shops just because you don't know if they're doing anything. One time at J***y lube, somehow my car was done in 5mins, so I got the F out of there fast and took it to the dealer that charges even less.

If you need just a regular oil change, I have been told to watch them while they do it because many companies "pretend" to change the oil and actually don't. I personally have never experienced this, although I have met individuals who claim this has happened to them. Definately not something I ever worried about back in NJ, but then again I haven't been given a reason not to trust someone in FL either.

I've had good experiences with RPM automotive in Fleming Island... They do my oil changes, and they did a great job on my brakes (pads, rotors, 2 new rear calipers)... No pulse, no squeal, it was a quality job...

I use RPM Automotive. Lots of locations, and they seem very trustworthy. Several friends here recommended them when we moved here. Their waiting rooms are nice, too. Free coffee and wifi, and very clean.
