Honest Mechanics in Knox? I have to get some work done on my car soon and wondering if anyone could recommend a good, honest mechanic. I know the repair is going to be fairly expensive, so I am not looking for a deal. I just need someone i can get the work done with minimal headache and can trust not to invent new things my car "needs". Also, I would perfer them to be in west Knox, but it isn't a requirement.
Thank you for all the replies. For those curious, I have a chevy cobalt and will be getting an oil change, and replacing the shocks. Possibly 2 new tires and a radiator flush as well and just a general checkup of the brakes and other systems.

There's a great shop, Cedar Bluff Auto, right next to the cedar bluff exit off I-40. But ***DO NOT*** take your car there for transmission work, they contract that work out to the shittiest transmission mechanics in East Tennessee. (http://cedarbluffautocare.com/) Also, Lerch's Garage in Maynardville had been recommended to me by many people. (6404 Maynardville Highway, 865.688.8828)
Anyone have recommendations for a mechanic in the west Knoxville/ Farragut area who does work on older cars? We've used Jones on Watt road for years but I think they've closed up.
