Fortunately I've never had to take my car in for anything besides getting chipped at GRD in Villa Park (which I'm going to again soon for my alignment) So I don't know about metro Chi. Maybe audiprotein knows. I've always done my own oil changes and mods. My dad does the bodywork.

For the alignment id say CPT in Melrose Park... But they are bit expensive... Otherwise loo kat mobileoneinc.com in Glenview. Also there is P&L motorsports in Franklin Park.
Also, there is one good shop in Downtown also called CAC

CAC is Chicago Auto Center (thats for Google). Ask for Demetri, and tell him you found out about that place through Euroteknik.com

Protein: I thought P&L was all Subie's?

OP: if you just want oil changes and small repairs an independent mechanic is the way to go. Sometimes euro mech's price even higher for a straightforward general job example: an alternator is an alternator. On Ford's, Honda's and Audi's. Any mechanic can do it no prob but just because of his specialty the euro mech will charge more. Just some wise advice.
