Question Is there anyone in the Atlanta Area?

Hey

I just got a PT Crusier from a used car dealer. I was falling in love with the car and I knew that there was a few minor things that needed to be fixed, but over all I had high hopes for it. But now I am seeing that there is a lot more to this car than what the dealer let onto . He made a point to let us know that we are pretty much stuck with the car, so I fiqure I have to make the best out of it.

So I am looking for someone in the metro Atlanta area that is a PT Crusier Lover! Someone that is a mechanic, preferably specializing in PT Crusier.....or a Crusier Lover that has a great mechanic that they work with!

I appreciate any help I can get!

Thanks
Sweetie!

Such as??? Is there another dealer in Atlanta you can go to instead of the one you bought the car from?

Hey, I just registered a few minutes ago and was looking through some of the threads, this one caught my eye.

I don't know what end of town you live or what dealer you are talking about.
You might try Troncalli Chrysler at Cumming, they are right off of exit 13 and a few mile North on Hwy 9.

Do you know if there are any PT Crusier clubs in our area?

How come the best speed you could get was only 93 & alittle change ? I've already topped 107 & I've only owned mine less than a month. That typhoon intake might not be working as effectively as you want it to. Either way it sound like you've put alot into your wheels. Just curious as to how much if you don't mind my asking.

Those runs were before any intake mods. The only mod I had when I did those runs was plug wires, bling, and the tune. Since then many many mods. I'd run again but right now the clutch is letting go at WOT in 2nd and 3rd. Trying to get it to hold on until next summer when I may be able to afford a Spec stage 3 clutch. As to how much, are you talking about everything or just the wheels? lol... I've never totalled it up, might just do that but it might just shock me too....

Don't attempt to figure it all up. You don't really want to know.

You are probably right. After this weekend I hope my wife doesn't ask how much I spent on RC Airplane stuff, she might give birth to a small fuzzy farm animal if she only knew....

I am in Gwinnett and i am a mechanic. But im not working as a car mechanic right now. The problem is not that you can not do allot of the work yourself it is having a place and the tools to do it. I know a good honest shop in the Suwanee area. I know money is a serious factor it is for everyone but beware cheap mechanics. You can pay a good mechanic $500 once are pay a bad mechanic $250 two are three times.
