:D :D :D :D :D LXT Automotive, Rockville, MD. There is a wonderful independent Lexus repair shop in Rockville, Maryland. LXT Automotive and its owner, Nelson, are outstanding both for quality of service and value for money. I drive a 1997 LS 400 and although it is a wonderful car, parts invariably wear out due to age, etc. For the past two years Nelson and his able assistant Oscar have kept the car, and me, going. Nelson is a first-rate and very experienced Lexus diagnostician and provides very clear explanations of any work needed, how soon it is needed, and how much it will cost. He is courteous and helpful in every way one could ask for. I have always bought second-hand Toyota cars and have never used dealers for service or repairs. If it weren't for Nelson, I would be at the mercy of a local dealer, and I know from one outrageous estimate that I got from a dealer two years ago (before I found Nelson and LXT) that if I had to use a dealer to repair the '97 LS 400 I would have to give up the car. Nelson has kept me on the road in an older car that, thanks to him, still runs like a Swiss watch.
