Respectable shop for PA inspection & not screw me on price - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

Alright, so it's now Sept and my car's a month overdue its inspection. Since I'm not from the area, and I don't feel like driving 1.5 hrs to the guy I usually take it to, I'm asking you guys in the Hatboro/Willow Grove area (or farther) where I should go. I know for a fact that there is nothing major wrong with the car (I daresay everything's fine...) and I don't need some shady shop to "pass" my car for illegal things I have done to it. In the past I've paid the dealership $85 to give me my little stickers and say "congratulations, you're driving a new car!" I'd much rather take my car to a trusted local business that you've had good luck with. Or, if any of you want to take this chance to whore out your place of employment and tell me to take my car there, that's fine too.

Any suggestions?

what could possibly a 2006 car need besides tires?

QCs_R4_Girls · 09-02-2008, 11:43 PM

Um, considerably more things than you'd expect for an 06 considering I've put 68k on it already.

I'm a tech at Saturn of Doylestown. I can do it for you for around 70-80 bucks as long as you dont need anything. PM me if you want to get it done here.

Theres a shop I went to in August in Oxford. Inspection and Emissions was $69 with tax. Let me know if you want the address and all. The shop is clean, techs are clean, I was pleased.
