My dad had a motor rebuilt by Tabler's that has a knocking issue immediately after the rebuild that they wont stand behind their work. Another mechanic that fixed the issue for my dad said Tabler's son had not fixed the valves or done head work like he said he had before putting motor back together. Many older friends that dealt at Tabler's for years have recently gone elsewhere for repairs due to lack of experience they offer now and how un professional they are to deal with now. Highly recommend going elsewhere for quality work, and to pay a mechanic that actually appreciates their customers and treats them with respect. Mt Airy is a small community and Jeff's son will slowly run the business into the ground like so many older smaller businesses that the younger generation take over and destroy what their families worked so hard to buid up.

They decided it was the computer because their OBD couldn't talk to the computer. They overcharged for the computer and labor (I later changed it back myself, so I know it wasn't that hard.)

The next mechanic said they never should have went directly to changing the computer, but was not able to find the issue. I ended up that changing a fuse helped, but later on the entire fuse holder needed replaced': and that fixed the issue.

I needed two tires replaced on my Mini Cooper. I previously called the Costco in Frederick but…read morelearned that they no longer carry my tire size. I called Mr Tire on a Thursday and within a five minute call I had an appointment set for the following Sunday at 10am. They did carry my size and told me the price of the tire and what brand of tire I could choose from. On Sunday I stopped by at 10 am. They were ready for me and asked if I'd like a couple additional options, including tire alignment and a type of warranty. I did not feel pressured at all to get any of these options. I headed out and got a call that my car was ready by 10:45. I picked up my car a couple hours later and everything was great! I looked over an itemized bill before paying for the tires. The tires were 275 with disposal fees and the service charge was around 60, so I paid a total of 350 for the new tires and service. Great deal and my car is ready to go! It was a very straightforward process with no surprises.

Here is why they get 1 star and why they lost me forever as a customer:…read more -They got the toe value wrong on an alignment that they performed 8K miles ago and that mistake damaged my new, expensive tires. -When they performed that so-called "alignment," I personally witnessed their employee use an air ratchet to tighten the lug nuts on my alloy wheels, and not a torque wrench as they state that their employees are supposed to use. -As a result of the premature tire wear, I brought the car in for an alignment check and a tire rotation. They gave me back my car after servicing the tires and the LOW TIRE PRESSURE warning light was on. I immediately told the service writer about it and he just shrugged and said "we moved your tires around and that caused the light to come on, so just drive it and it probably will go off." Really? The light only turns on if it detects air pressure below the required amount and only turns off if the tire has the required pressure. It doesn't just turn on or off if the tires get moved around. Instead of going out and checking the tire pressures or getting the person who worked on my car to do it, this supposed "tire expert" was too arrogant and lazy to do anything more than toss BS at me and hope I'd go away. -The real reason the LOW TIRE PRESSURE light was on was because they failed to check and adjust the tire pressures when rotating my tires. The correct tire pressures for my car are 32 lbs. front and 38 lbs. rear. After the rotation, the fronts were at 38 lbs. and the rears were at 32 lbs. This caused the TPMS to turn on the LOW TIRE PRESSURE warning light for the rear tires. -They took no measures to protect the interior of my car from the grime, grease and dirt on their employee's hands and clothing. As a result, he smeared brown grease and black, sooty filth all over the light tan leather driver seat and door handle and on the leather steering wheel and shift knob. I had to clean the seat as best I could with a napkin and hand sanitizer so that I could drive it home without ruining my clothes. For a number of years, this place used to be OK and once, I even gave it a favorable review. I think that it has undergone a lot of personnel changes. I would no longer recommend it for any service unless you are satisfied with: sloppy alignments that put expensive tires at risk of damage; use of an air ratchet to tighten the lug nuts on alloy wheels; careless work on tires that omits re-setting tire pressures after a rotation; having the interior of your car trashed by grease and black soot; and no ownership for addressing or fixing problems that they cause that activate tire pressure warning lights. There are a lot of tire stores in the area. This is not one that I will ever revisit.

I explained both issues in detail to the manager, who quoted me $1,299 for the CV axle job and agreed to call me if costs would exceed that. No one called. Instead, I received an invoice for $736.80 that didn't even include the CV axle work I came in for. I was charged $345 for a "diagnostic" on a problem I had already identified and explained, and a $20 washer was turned into a $307 brake hose replacement I never authorized. The work order mischaracterized what I told them -- they wrote "brakes spongy" and "axle is making noise," neither of which I said. Their own authorization form states they cannot charge for work you did not authorize. Be very careful here and get everything in writing.

Ed and Lee have more knowledge about setting up Miatas in their pinkies than I ever will in my entire body. Lee asked me if I had any specs in mind, and when I didn't talked with me about how I drive and how I have the car currently setup and what I was looking for in handling and then discussed the setup. Afterwards discussed what he was able to dial in, and what would have to happen to get more aggressive specs. I mean, he's like your own personal race consultant. Work was done quickly, very reasonably priced, and with truly expert consultation that you would be really hard pressed to find anywhere else. Well worth the drive for me, glad to have found the go-to.
