Looking for "reasonable" service at a "reasonable" price (is an Audi after all) in the greater Boston area for 2000 A6 2.7T. Heard Reitzl dealership on South Shore was an absolute no, no. Did here that Shine Racing in Walpole is good. Does anyone have any experience / advice for this area?

Picked up this car a couple weeks ago. It has 75K on it and I want to just get the timing belt and brakes done. Maybe the chip. THIS CAR ROCKS!! My wife gets scared when I punch it in 2nd gear. he he.

Thanks to those with ideas.

Hey Beefski - I called the guys in Weymouth and they don't have the tensioner tool for the A6. The guy was very nice. Looks like I'm headed to Shine Racing. Thanks for your help.
