Good independent Toyota mechanic in Orange County, CA
I have a 2000 4Runner that needs a little bit of work and wanted to see if anyone has any recommendations for a local independent shop that they've had good experiences with. I have the P0401 CEL and some belt noise issues and just don't have time to do it myself. I'm in Westminster. Thanks for your help!!

A lot of people recommend YotaMasters in Corona.

Nick's Auto Service in Irvine is much closer to you. He's gotten used to 4Runners, thanks to my 4th gen, and he's just a seriously nice, honest, talented guy. My company now sends all our smaller vehicles to him.

Thanks to all for your input. I work not 5 minutes from Nick's Auto Service so I'll give him a call next week.

I actually spoke to Nick about 15 minutes ago and I'm dropping it off Monday. I'll definitely let him know.
