2024 must have been an off year for the Avenue Garage. I've heard from a neighbor who previously…read moreworked as a mechanic there that they have quite a turnover with new mechanics and heard from another source that mechanics get commissions these days. I took my 2013 Mercedes convertible there in January 2024 and left it there for diagnostics of an overheating problem after being stuck in traffic all day from 1-75 being closed on December 27th or 28th 2023 due to a bad multiple vehicle accident. The Avenue Garage said the head gaskets were blown and it needed an engine replacement. They did find a replacement engine with approximately 50,000 miles "of course that's what they all say I have learned". Then the repair estimate was over $11,000 to replace the engine and make sure everything was operating properly. I decided that seemed really high and ended up leaving the vehicle here at my second home in Punta Gorda and deal with it this 2025 season. In January 2025 I contacted a Mercedes Benz repair specialist in Pompano Beach Florida and told him that it was determined last year by another repair technician in the Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda area that the car needs a replacement engine so he said he would try to find one and get back with me. He did find a replacement engine within a month then called me back with an estimate of approximately $4500 total for the engine and putting it in. The engine itself was $2100 which was included in the total price of $4500. I then paid for the engine and scheduled my once a year long haul tow up to 200 miles and had the vehicle towed to Pompano Beach for replacement of the engine. ABA Performance in Pompano Beach then test drove the car a few times, ran the engine diagnostics, determined it was low on coolant and spark plug #3 was misfiring but GUESS WHAT THE CAR DID NOT NEED A REPLACEMENT ENGINE AFTERALL! I was very skeptical about what I was being told but he satisfied me with his answers to all of my question. He did do a complete service on the vehicle and fixed what was needing to be fixed. So now I have a 2013 Mercedes replacement engine for sale $2100 OBO! So glad I didn't fall for the over 11 grand repair job that the Avenue Garage recommended. I almost sold the car as is to another neighbor thinking it needed an engine replacement and left the car here in Punta Gorda with a car cover on it which blew off during Helene or Milton not sure which hurricane it was. LESSON LEARNED ALWAYS GET A SECOND OR EVEN THIRD OPINION

I would like to commend and thank Jason, Kirk and all at Avenue Garage for the warranty replacement…read moreof the ABS Pump/Module that failed on my 2010 VW Jetta. Not only did they replace the faulty unit free of charge, but cleaned the vehicle inside and out as well as inspected the car for additional deficiencies. This was a safety courtesy to me without any pressure to perform the repairs or drum up sales. This was very much appreciated as these deficiencies really needed to be addressed and I was given a quote and the option to either repair it myself or have them do it. Again, no pressure!
