Default 2Bennett in Davis, CA. Recommend for service?

I need some service done on my 99.5 1.8t A4 Avant. I had an independent in the Bay Area but his business manager is being a numbskull and I don't want to do deal with them.

I live and work very close to 2Bennett. Anyone ever used them before? I'm looking to have my timing belt tensioner/belts/rollers/water pump done on my 1.8t A4.

I've heard they can be a little disorganized and slow but do they do good work?

They did my MC1 swap back in '99, still running great. They've also done various custom jobs for my ride over the years too.

Default Good to know that they have a good rep here at AW. I'm very tempted about their

tip tranny upgrade. Anyone here know anyone who has done this? I wanna go stage 3 and have been wary about Level 10's work. TIA!

I just got my front brakes done by them today. I'm going back in two weeks for their custom coilover setup.

Default They did the windscreen on my UrS4 car... I have not seen a job more poorly done in some time

They insisted on using OE glass.
Then pre-ordered it before I committed to do the job and complained I needed to do it
They screwed it up so bad the VIN numbers are obscured, and I ended up having to seal off some sections with sealant myself.

When I redid the cowling I discovered great globs of sealant around the edge, really sloppy.

All I can think is that must have been a new hire, or sub-contracted.
