“They priced the brake job in writing at eight and had it done by two. The old pads came back in a box, like they said.”

“Two shops said new battery. Idlewood found a corroded ground instead. Saved me a battery, and the fee came off the fix.”

Questions
Do I need an appointment?
Walk-ins fit when a bay is free. Booked jobs go first.
Do you use parts I bring?
Sometimes. Ask first — customer parts change what we can stand behind.
Is there a ride?
A ride into Uptown and back, yes. Loaner cars, no.
What do you not do?
Engine rebuilds, body work, and glass. Everything else, ask.
