When my long time trusted Porsche mechanic diagnosed my 996 with cylinder scoring and had to be…read morerebuilt, he said there was no one local capable but could get a rebuild from California with an upgrade to 3.8 litre. Seamed like a good option. Then when I soon had intermittent misfires happening, he diagnosed the newly rebuilt engine from California with bottom end issues. Again he said there was no one in Southwestern Ontario capable of tearing down the block to determine the cause or fix it. My own internet search took me to Chariots of Simcoe. My old mechanic could not have been so wrong!!! Sati is the most knowledgeable and capable Porsche mechanic I have ever spoken with. He did a complete disassembling of the motor to discover my cylinders were not properly aligned to the top of the block causing coolant entering the combustion chamber, as well as a few other issues with the US rebuild. He was able to machine the block flush, procure custom head gaskets and better rings and completely rebuild the motor, also fixing the other issues, all staying true to his quoted price. Now my car is running smooth and stronger than ever. I only wish I had known about Chariots of Simcoe and had Sati rebuild my motor the first time.

Really not impressed with the lack of a written quote, the 6 day holdover, the incomplete work order, and the clear miss on damaging my air suspension system. Disappointed for the price.

When the Chrysler dealership told me I needed a full brake job during the pandemic, Marshalls pointed to the tiny bit of rust (from sitting) but then pointed out the ton of pad left.
