Question Need a local shop in Northern, VA...

Ok. What should have been an hour job turned south when I couldn't get the
power steering pulley off - doing the EvoSport mod. Anyhow, it wouldn't budge with the puller and I didn't want to break anything. So, I put the other
two back and the belt. Any suggestion on local shops is appreciated. I'm not
far from I-66 in Gainesville, VA.

Thx,

Bob

I'm kind of in the same boat as you. I don't know if I should try to swap out the pullies myself or let a shop do it. If you find a good shop (and price) please post here or on club202. I'll also make some calls next week (I'll look for a euro tuner shop).

I'm going to see if I can find the Mercedes puller first, if not, I found a shop
on 234 in Manassas - Speed Performance that might be able to hook me up.

I'll post back tomorrow, maybe others can benefit.

I'm down for something like that, would you want us both to come over at the same time?

How long would it take? I wouldn't feel right taking up too much of your time.
