    The dealership said the "service B" was going to cost $450.  Really?!  It's just an oil change and the yearly inspection so that seemed a bit steep.  As much as I dreaded finding another place to get maintenance done on the Mercedes I did some searching for a certified Mercedes shop and I found 5th Gear listed at the top of all of the lists.

    They were very friendly and efficient on the phone and I had an appointment set up right away.  It was only going to be $135.  That's more like it!  When I got there, everything was spotless both inside and outside the shop and that's a bonus.  Dennis introduced himself immediately and was very helpful.  It was going to take a couple of hours so I walked over to 3 Margaritas and grabbed some lunch.

    When I got back, Dennis explained what the service entailed and what I had to do to maintain service records.  My car was left clean and ready to go.

    Think that's enough?  How about this -- Dennis gave me 10% off because I was a first-time customer.  Let's just say there will be more than a first time because my Mercedes will be going back to 5th Gear whenever it needs something.

    A shop really doesn't get any better than this.

    As a general rule, prior to taking my car to 5Th gear I hated car repair places with a fiery passion.  I'd been jerked around by any number of dealerships and neighborhood places around Denver and Albuquerque. Trust does not come easy with car repair
    All this has changed since I have been taking my Honda to 5Th gear. I've never had to take my car back to them because something was done incorrectly or half-assed.  The staff is friendly and they know their stuff - just ask!  They never repair an issue without notifying me first, and haven't given me the 3rd degree when I decided not to fix something or do it myself.

    We've been taking our cars to 5th gear for over 20 years.  Really!  In 20 years, with 4 cars I had one thing go wrong with a repair - and they quickly fixed it for free.  None of our cars has less than 100K miles, and we've had two go over 200K under their care.  With cars this old (none made this millenium!) we've taken him a few "interesting" problems -- all were fixed satisfactorily.

    Andy and his crew are awesome!!  I could not possibly recommend anyone more highly.  They are competent, honest, and they care.  Does it get better than that?

    [Also on Tom Martino's troubleshooter recommended list IIRC].

    Friendly staff, $68 for a synthetic oil change- took a little over an hour with an appointment.  They said it would cost $95 to evaluate why my engine light was on- I said no thanks that's too much money.

    Thank you 5th Gear for fixing my car when it had completely stopped running (and I never had any problems before then).  I was worried about the cost and of course being taken advantage of.  Overall, my car was fixed and is running just fine.  5th Gear was very nice to me and they even fixed the oil that was leaking from my car FREE of charge when I noticed it.  I was looking for a family mechanic and I believe 5th Gear now qualifies as a trust worthy mechanic for our family.  They were very nice and told me they guarantee all of their work 100%.  Thank you 5th Gear!  Melissa and family
