    Recomendation for a Raleigh area shop to evaluate, advise and repair my Mk4

    Looking for a recommendation for a Cobra expert in the Raleigh, NC area. I'm new to the area and I want to get my Mk4 thoroughly gone through. Thanks

    Welcome to the area. There's a local group that gets together once a month. Get signed up to our google group email list and post the question there. One of the guys will know of a shop or two.

    I used to have a good tech checklist from one of the local autocross groups. You can use that to do tech inspection of the car on your own if you'd like. PM me for my contact info if you want me to try to find that.

    I sent these links to Chris, but just in case anyone else needs a good general tech inspection form, I found these helpful.

    More detailed guide you can use.

    I remember a long time ago seeing a list like this that was specific to our cars...it pointed out all the nuts & bolts you should check, but don't know where to even start to look for it.

    If you are a member of THSCC you can get a full tech inspection very inexpensively. They run a number of them by appointment at the beginning of the season. Pass & you get a window sticker that lets you run in any event they host. Auto-X, Rally-X, HPDE, Auto-X school etc.

    They also have arrangements with some local shops that will charge 1/2 to 1 hour shop rate.

    Even it you don't run its a professional inspection of your car.

    Sounds to me like the OP is looking for a shop to do his maintenance and repairs. If that is correct I'd advise contacting Whitby in Greensboro.
