    My advice(for what it is worth as I don't use mechanics if I can help it) Go with who other people say are good value. Don't go with cheapest hourly rate, you can often pay more because they take twice as long.

    If you have a choice between two places go with the easiest for you eg. walk to, free pickup etc.
    Free pick up had me sold too

    I need to change my oil real soon too (as usual) so if you want to save some $ we could have an oil changing arvo. Dunno how long they'd spend on doing it at the shop though.
