Default Cincinnati or Dayton Ohio Repair Shop Recommendations

Just moved to Oxford, Ohio (between Dayton and Cinci) and need some work done on my 2004 NB. Any recommendations for repair shops in or around Oxford?

Thanks!

Welcome to Ohio , I try to do all the work I can on my own car, I have only gone to the dealership twice.

My wife takes her S-10 to a place called Muffler Brothers in Huber Heights, Ohio for the repairwork I can't do, they seem to be reasonably priced.

What are you looking to have done?

Thanks, I'm returning from a 3 year absence. My passenger side mirror turn signal is blinking doubletime and my locks are not unlocking with my "clicker" (opener on key - they will, however, lock). Not major issues, just annoying.

Does the trunk button work on the remote?

You'll find that a lot of people on here can help you diagnose things

You might want to head over the regional section on VW Vortex. Not a bad place to find reviews on shops in your area.

The trunk button does work. Unlock doesn't work but lock does on remote... also interior power lock function works but unlock function doesn't.

Thanks for the guidance to VW Vortex.

All passenger side turn signals blink doubletime, but drivers side signals are OK.

You probably have a microswitch problem in one, or both of your doors.

I'm finally going to break down and take it to go get looked at on the 3rd. I imagine it's probably going to cost me an arm and a leg.
