Default Good Audi Auto Shops (Chicago)

Anyone know of any good Audi mechanics around the Chicago area? I know the dealership is usually a good place to start but sometimes they overcharge me or they refer to one of their guys who overcharges me. I just want fair service for a fair price. I have a 1996 Audi A4 in good condition, I just need a little body work done and some mechanical (sway bar bushings) done.

Any really good auto shops that are around Chicago, preferably the North Side/North Suburbs?

Better yet, who should I stay away from in Chicago?

Let me know, thanks.

I go to a place in St.Charles, I know its some what of a drive, but this guy I tell ya what.. He's a german guy. lol, you walk into his shop and you cream yourself the entire time your in there. Audi's, Porches, Bimmers, Ferraris, Lambos, Volvos, etc. etc. HE HAS THEM ALL FOR SALE IN HIS SHOP. This guy is a genius. He's been doing this his entire life, they do WONDERFUL work. He's helped me out sooo much. Prices are not very expensive, but you get what you pay for. He is a bit on the higher end, just an fyi. But like I said, you get what you pay for. Cheers.

GRD in Villa Park or if your in North Shore they got Dub Works and a couple others I can't remember right now off the top of my head. For body work you should go anywhere. I personally get my dad to do mine since he works in hot rods and classics. That's the way to go.
