wagsy22 Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Does anyone know of good Lexus repair shops in Austin, Texas that do quality work at a price less than the Lexus dealer in Austin? Im looking to get my timing belt / water pump replaced and the lexus dealer wants a $1400 to do this. Thanks, Wagsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears no one has any recommendations for Austin, Texas. I would hate to have my car taken to a dealer for this knowing I could get a quality job done elsewhere at a much lower price. Anyone, please??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GS300SportD Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Sorry: I am not of any help - my 2003 is still under warrantee, so the dealer is doing all my work on the car. I have owned the car for just 18 months and have 30,000 miles on it, so I have been reading this tread carefully. It will not be long and I will be looking for someone in Austin to work on my car other that Lexus of Austin. Hope to hear of good results.

(rack and pinion finally went). i drive 80 miles round trip to have my car serviced there. he is doing well over $2,000 worth of work (IMO), and the total should come in at just over $1,000. but ill take a $900 something dollar savings any day! Let it be known i HIGHLY reccomend JP Importz. Blake918 will say the same. he drove 400 miles ONE WAY to have his car serviced there. He gives you a free loaner car, all that he asks is that yuou return it to him with a full tank of gas, and that camry he has gets like 34MPG... not a bad deal if you ask me.

B) ← I just got a bid from a BMW Specialist in Austin to do my timing belt, water pump, cam pulleys and seals for $995. I think the place is very reputable b/c it is packed with BMWs all day every day. I think that is a very good price but would like to know opinions from other members.
