Pacific Rim Auto, located in Fremont/Wallingford on Stone Way, seems to be an honest and friendly group of mechanics. They are pretty expensive ($80 per hour for my Subaru), but they took a lot of time to explain details and options to me. They also detail your car every time you bring it in (or they did for me) which is nice (but really probably unnecessary). They specialize in certain imports, like Subaru. I'd like to go somewhere a bit cheaper, but it is conveniently located, the employees are very friendly, and the free loaner cars are a nice touch.
