Default Repair shop in South Bay area (Torrance, Redondo Beach)

Looks like the A8 needs some attention. I'm getting some awful creaking and groaning out of the front suspension somewhere. Anybody know where to go besides the Pacific Audi dealer (who charges $120 an hour).

I live in Torrance, but work in El Segundo, so anywhere around there would be great.

Default If you want dealer service at cheaper rates, go to Eurocode Tuning in Torrance...

<a href="http://ecodetuning.com" target="_blank">Eurocode</a>

It might technically be in Gardena, but close enough.

Matt Baumann is is an Audi certified master tech, is Pacific Audi's chief technician, and works at eurocode as well. You'd be getting pacific audi's best guy at a significant savings.

Call David or Eli for an appointment. Tell them a guy with a really slow, silver A6 sent you...

Alternatively, I don't think you could go wrong with the suggestions below, either. All are great.

Default Thanks for the tip

They are right on my way home since I usually take Crenshaw South from the 405 instead of Hawthorne. I stopped there today and set up an appointment for next week.

They think it's tie rods, control arms, and/or bushings and need to put it up on the rack. The car makes a mean groan though every time you start and stop or when going slow on a bumpy road.
