Recommended Mechanics North Bay?

My FAVORITE EVER mechanics, LIC Motorsports in Novato, has CLOSED.
I am bummed because these guys were GREAT (knowledgeable, honest) and deserved to stay open. The world is NOT FAIR.
Also, because my old Subaru is going to need a tune-up and some work ...

Any garage or mechanic recommendations in Marin? Sonoma? Heck, even NAPA? Because driving to SF or Hayward is just hell ...

Yes, LIC is still sorely missed around here. Especially since I now have two Subies.
I still haven't found a shop to replace them and am back to doing my own work - which is not so fun at my age.
Any recommendations.

If you were thinking of GST in Hayward, they're gone too. Mert @ RBMS is still there though. I have not heard of any shops in the East or North bay beyond that are known by the community

I used these guys one time for a transmission issue on the old Outback and they were pretty good: https://www.yelp.com/biz/kunos-auto-...redwood-city-2

There's a bunch of Subies in Berzerkely, found this one but have not used them:

Too bad about GST. Hope all is well with him.
Thanks for the Berkeley Bob's tip.
Happy Motoring!

Tillet's in Santa Rosa does excellent work. Fine Line Imports on Piner is another option. I haven't lived up there in a few years now but I think they're still around.

Thanks for sharing those links, you made my day. I am also looking for it online and I am glad I found your post. While searching for it online, I also found https://casinosanalyzer.ca/online-ca...ian-dollar-cad website in which I found online casino Canadian dollar sites through which I can earn real money. And with the help of that money, I am gonna spend hiring a good mechanic.
