Re: Infiniti Mechanic or shop (campbelljj)
What mechanical do you need? Obviously there is quite a difference between changing brake pads and replacing something on the engine or replacing transmission.
Electronic trouble shooting is best done by a certified TECHNICAN not a mechanic.
We have [had] many Florida customers [Orlando & Tampa North] but none as far as Miami, now. Gas prices have made it tougher to drive 1,000 miles round trip for Q services.
Careful, more Q are destroyed by incomptent mechanic than owners. If they don't work on your model at least once per week every week you may be asking for trouble!
With our $85/hr labour rate we are only $25/hr less expensive than dealer so think carefully about trying someone not experienced as the $50-$100 you might save on a typical work order might not be worth the risk.
Trustworthy shops with use oem parts [except for battery, fluids, bulbs, etc] so they will have to charge MSRP detailer parts prices
Based on some personal research you are one of the lucky~ 5,000 91Q45 still functioning in the WORLD

If you FIND anyone in our area,please let me know.I'm in Delray Beach/Boca area,and can't find anyone but the dealer here.Prices are out of sight. Does anyone know of a NISSAN shop in South Palm Beach County/Broward Co. Fla.,that may be knowledgeable to help us? ALSO,need alternator for '97 Q45 ASAP if anyone has one,or knows of one used. TIA
