Need a Good Mechanic/Shop in San Marcos (San Diego) Area

My 06' Sedan has about 68,000 miles on her and I'm trying to find a good shop to make my regular.. Right now I'm trying to get my coolant and AT fluid flushed.

I live in San Marcos (about 30 mins north of San Diego Airport) so the farther north, the better I suppose.

Well, definitely the coolant.. As for AT, not sure if I need to just replace most of it or do a full flush or what.. I've noticed a bit of shaking/vibrations when going up steep inclines at low RPMs, so a bit of searching has lead me to believe I could benefit from an AT Flush.. Any other opinions are greatly appreciated.


So tell me guys/gals of the SoCal.. Who do you take your baby to?

Thanks for the input!

Only do AT Drain and Fill on the G35, never do a full flush. Also a tune up will do you good. spark plugs and all.

I replaced my spark plugs about 10k miles ago just for the hell of it, went for some higher temp ones. Thanks for the tip on the AT!

Kearny Mesa Infiniti

Ask for Robin (she used to work at Hoehn in Carlsbad). She rocks.

In addition, ask will she honor service coupons from other dealers in Socal. Normally they will honor these and you will save about 15%.

I live closer to Infiniti Escondido, but will drive south because I like working with Robin and this dealership more.

I have published pricing for the services you are requesting in several of my more recent posts. These guys are very reasonable.
