Can anyone recommend an independent shop in or near Lakeland, FL that does good work on TDIs?

I need the timing belt changed and the dealer wants $1130 to do it. Seems a bit pricey.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave Bosell

LWB-053 was the only person I knew of in florida, he helped me out a number of years ago... check the trusted mechanics thread at the top of this page, He might still be there.

These guys are in Orlando. http://fullthrottleorl.com/ They are on the trusted list iirc. Which TDI are you in need of changing the belt? I have the ALH tools and VCDS in Orlando.

I've used Full Throttle for the last 2 timing belt changes. They did a great job. Highly recommended!
