Hi guys, I’m Dan. I’m in Buffalo for the next couple months before I head to NJ for some BMW training. I’m looking for a temporary auto related job. Or auto repair jobs I can do at my home garage. I’ve been working on cars for years, and just got back from Houston, where I worked on high end stuff like Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, Jaguar, Ferrari. “coldaccord” could vouch for me, if need be. So if anyone has some jobs or could refer me to some, that would be great. Thanks ---

Got any mechanic certifications or anything? I need the clutch on my 01 Jetta VR6 replaced, but to be bluntly honest I’d be worried that this random guy from the intarweb would be a hack and fug up my car. Not commenting on you personally cuz you’ve done nothing to suggest that you would be that way… ---

his last job was at a Renntech dealer in Texas, so I’d say that gives him credibility And coincidentally, he’s already done a clutch on that generation vr6 recently ---

I dropped my car and new clutch parts off at his house monday night, had a car with a new clutch ready to go tuesday night. 50 miles so far and the thing works like butter. Well, not like butter. The old clutch worked like butter and that’s why it had to go. 😛 Anyways, he did a great job on my clutch at a reasonable price and in one day. I’d highly recommend him. Thanks man! :tup: ---
