Can anyone suggest a good Legend mechanic in the Carolinas

[Buggman68]

I recently won a ?94 Legend on BaT. Great car. 114,000 original miles. Bought it for my wife who used to own one and absolutely loved it. Based on the Carfax report the car had been in storage for several years before the owner I bought it from on BaT. Driven the car a bit since it was delivered and I?ve found a few issues. Mainly the heat and AC do not work properly. Compressor does kick in when you turn on the AC and to get heat you have to turn the thermostat all the up to 94. A few other small issues have popped up as well. Just want a knowledgeable Legend mechanic to do the work. We live near Raleigh but honestly don?t mind traveling for a really good mechanic that knows these cars.

almost any import mechanic specifically a honda/acura shop will be able to handle these issues. I mean i'm a mechanic and know these cars very well... but I'm in pittsburgh,pa lol

if your handy honestly alot of the small things can be fixed with basic socket set. the key to these cars IS the proper parts. so don't just buy the cheapest or whatever autozone sells. alot of it even online is JUNK.


I do alot of legend builds in my shop and I only install parts I know are good because people want to bring me amazon crap and I refuse their parts/work.

I live in Charlotte. It has been years since I've personally taken my car there, since I do most of the work myself, but I have always used a Honda/Acura specialist called Compact Car Service here in Charlotte. They have always been great and honest people.
