Need Shop/dealership Atlanta area

Can someone reccomend a shop are dealership in Atlanta area for AMG problem solving. I've found some shy away from Merc owners who have mods, and track their cars. ( Out of their depth ? ) I am in NC but visiting Atlanta next week.

thanks,

Will

Car goes into limp mode ( no power-enough to make it to the pits where switching the car of and back on fixes it ) every session after about 15min always when exiting a hard corner I have posted a thread on it and a number of people have had the same problem. No answers though. I'll see if I can paste link here. I need a shop with a Merc SDS star Diagnostic System to run a scan to see if a sensor is out of whack. Im afraid it will have to be a Merc dealership. Will find link and post next.

thanks

thx

any of these Merc dealerships? I've been told first step would be a scan with a Merc "Star Diagnostics System" which may not be avail except at dealerships. As I and other Merc performance specialists have guessed it to be a sensor problem which should show up on a scan. But I'll call your suggestions, they may have encountered this as it is not uncommon w/ C 63 owners who track.

Glad to hear it, and thanks for keeping us posted! What ended up being the issue, and how was it resolved?

They were't completely sure but they re mapped the ECU ( previous Eurocharged ) They offered refund if not fixed. Finally got a track day-5 hard sessions- problem solved. Their tune was noticabley more gain. Wow. They are helping me plan additional mods I may take 1 step at a time. Not pushy-reasonable shop rates -awesome shop , Highly reccommended.
