Had two Vanagons in the past (81 and 84), and have decided to fall in love with the Eurovan.

Looking around at several candidates, and also asking my trusted indy mechanics if they'll touch them - so far it's a proving tough.

Anyone have recommendations on someone in Atlanta area (preferably northern suburbs) that works on these and understands them?

Many thanks - Mark
Roswell, GA

There is a list on the VanApp. I have been building a list for myself, but nothing in the South East. Nearest on my list are outfits in North Carolina. In a pinch find VW/Porsche shops that know the VR6 motor AND may have a Eurovan mechanic. Good hunting and we'll see you out there...

Good to ask every Eurovan owner you encounter: "Who's your mechanic?"
(I've thought about printing a bunch of cards with this question and a contact address, to put under Eurovan windshield wipers.)
