Good MB Service Center in Pasadena, Glendale, or Burbank CA?
Looking for a GOOD certified service center that’s not a dealer in Pasadena, Glendale, or Burbank CA for my 2001 CLK? It’s not a car I drive a lot anymore so I would rather save some cash and take this particular car somewhere cheaper for service. Keeping the E500 at the dealer for now 
I just have this fear that stems back to my BMW days.. I took it to a certified (small shop) BMW mechanic instead of the dealer and it seems I was taking it back for unrelated problems every other month. This was happening to other customers as well, later I found out. The shop since closed down, maybe they got caught for screwing the cars up, dunno. So as you can see I’m a little hesitant about it.

CMYK- I know thid citiy isnt in your area, but at Anaheim Caliber Motors about 30ish miles away from your target area, my buddy who bought my CLK430 works there as a tech. I can give him a heads up if you decide to go there.

Google the guy and you'll find people drive from SD for his work. Years ago, a number of MB owners chipped in and bought him a trophy for "best MB shop".

Enrique is the owner of MB Motors. "What can he do" is a pretty open ended question. It might be faster to say what I wouldn't trust him to do - body work and possibly suspension repair following a major accident. Other than that, he can do just about anything your dealer can do, and he'll do it for less. Enrique has been repairing Mercedes-Benz's for over 40 years. He was at Beverly Hills LTD for over 25 years, spent time as the shop foreman there, and spent another 5+ years as the shop foreman at Stiegler.
