I have a 2001 NB and would like to have the timming belt changed as weel as timming bumped up. Also if possible have the intake cleaned as well.

Anyone know of a place that would do a great job.

Thanks in advance
Dennis

Huh?

I have always been in Maple Grove. I still live there except at a different address.

Yes, I would be happy to work on it.

Any gurus by Duluth or rapids? I have a timing belt coming up in 5k. I'll have all the parts and I can help if needed. I just don't have a garage to work on it anymore.

greengeeker can take good care of you
I second this. Had him help resurrect my car from the dead, and he modded it. The car has never been better, and I'd recommend him to anyone. I'm sure everyone else recommended here is good too, but I haven't had any experiences with them.

Well I'm resurrecting this, half thought before I read who posted it was one of my old posts. I think my gold AAA should get my car over there.

Last shop I used that was *ok* just went under. There isn't **** in southern MN. At least madison isn't a bad drive.

Too late to call now, but this shop has been brought up a few times. Will call in the AM. Not like my TDI has been sitting for 2 years because I can't find anyone with an IQ over 40 to work on it. Nor do I have the time/space to do anything myself.

I don't see any mention of Eric Merker at Midwest Motorworks in Hudson, WI.
