I can highly recommend Scandinavian Imports for a Maryland shop. If you want to expand the area to Viriginia, AutoScandia in Herndon are honest and will fix only what needs to be fixed. I was working in Rockville years ago and Scandinavian Imports diagnosed and fixed a front end suspension problem that International Motors could not. Just this year AutoScandia helped solve a hard starting problem for only $18.00. Either one of these shop comes with my recommendations.
