Trusted auto shop near NYC?
Hi,

I live in Manhattan and I need complete transmission flush for my G500 (50k miles), do you guys have any recommendation for trusted mechanics or shops?

Thank you!

Wolfgangs in Tenefly, NJ is the best shop for the Gwagen east of the Mississippi River.

From what I’ve heard, MB Manhattan is the last place I would consider for service on a G. Wolfgang’s knows the G from front to back and top to bottom; but the choice is yours.

lol, both the 6x6 and 4x4 get serviced by the same Technician there, and I wouldn't trust the trucks with anyone else.

Word of mouth from friends (multiple) with personal bad experiences with MB Manhattan's service department. As said, I would not use them; but to each their own.

Wolfgang's in Tenefly, NJ is considered by many to be the best G shop east of the Mississippi River. If I ever had a serious problem with my G that I could not handle myself, I would take it all the way to Wolfgang's from Atlanta. That's 33 yrs experience of owning, driving and servicing G's speaking.

'Nuff said!
