Hi All, I am looking to find out where EuroVan users are happy with their mechanics.

Contact Valley Wagon Works in San Rafael CA... They should be able to help sort you out. There are not many mechanics around (that I could find) that have the experience to work on these vehicles.

Avant Werks in Truckee has a mechanic that is the eurovan guru of the area. Claims that many of his clients come up from the bay area to have their vans worked on by him. Better have an open schedule and wallet though. I think his name is Drew. You don't even get to speak to him, just his subordinate.

I have been taking my 2001 EVC to Tony & Brothers in Sunnyvale for the past few years. The owner has a 2000 EVC and he is doing an engine/transmission/dash out complete make over on his personal vehicle. The shop rate is reasonable for the bay area and they know the Eurovan very well.
