Best place for 30k maintenance near San Francisco? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

What's a good place to get your 30k maintenance done near SF? I just hit 30k and want to make sure my car is taken care of.

You can drive for another 30 minutes or so into Concord and see Neal @ The Racer's Line

+1 for Neal. Instead of dropping off your car and hoping for the best, you get to see the work being done and ask questions. It's a whole different experience. And his rates are competitive/reasonable.

+another for Neal. Had my 30k service done by Neal and so far I don't think I'd let anyone else work on the car. Great service and he really knows the ZN6 platform and what our cars need.

Elite Performance is awesome too, if you're in the city or Peninsula!

Elite Performance in Burlingame

+1 for Elite as well, since they are closest to the City I think...

Thanks for the kind words guys!

@kgc
If you are in SF, I'm assuming you don't have the space to do the work yourself. You have an Auto as well, so if you decided to add on a trans service(not required in a 30k, until 60k but still a good idea) then it is a little trickier, and you'll want a pro to do it.

I honestly, recommend Elite in Burlingame, because they are so close to you. I think between myself and Elite, there aren't any other shops in this area with as much experience and time working on this platform. I realize it is weird that I would recommend another shop, but they are so close, and they are guys that I would trust to do work on my own car.

If you have any interest in coming to Concord, I would be happy to provide you with a quote for the 30k and answer any questions you might have(and give you a ride to the BART station!)

Happy Hunting!

Hey Neal!

Don't mean to jack this thread, but I met you at the East Bay meet in Concord about a month ago and it was great seeing your car and how much knowledge you have over this platform. I'm approaching 30k and I was wondering if you could PM a quote for you to service my 2013 manual BRZ!

Thanks!

Thanks for the endorsement @The Racers Line

Not so much weird as it more helpful to our community. We work closely with @The Racers Line, even trekked to 2hrs from Burlingame to Concord (commute traffic) to ensure his customer is happy (ECU tuning related). Bottomline, we have the Bay Area covered! You can't go wrong with either shop.

Werkshop on San Bruno Ave, in San Bruno. Owners are a bunch of mazda/rotary & subaru heads, but they've done alot of Frs/Brz as well.
