JasonLS430 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Hello, I am new the forum. I noticed this post is from a few years back. Does anyone have an up to date information on a mechanic in the Indianapolis area? I have a 99 GS300 that needs front breaks and a tune up. I also have a 05 LS430 that needs rear brake pads. Thanks.

gamagin Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I'm new here, too. BUT the best advice I've seen re good mechanics besides costly dealerships is to go to a well respected Toyota mechanic (dealer or otherwise) and you get less cost per hour (generally) and thus less cost. Parts are parts but even there, there's a tendency to not mark up as much there as well, I have found. I had new front pads recently on my 2003 403 LS and just took it to a good mechanic I know (far from Indy). No problem. Pads plus $40 per hour, or about half. It's the diagnostics, knowledge and the toyota training I seek otherwise. Good luck. gamagin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
