    confused Fort Collins Jeep Mechanic Recommendation?



    Looking for a mechanic/member near Fort Collins to take a look at my 07' Wrangler with 96k and see if they can fix some of the nitpicks I have with the Jeep.

    Issues:

    - Have a coolant leak somewhere
    - Slight exhaust smell in the cabin recently when the windows are up
    - Airbag light is driving me nuts, can go days without it on, then days with it on
    - P0420 error code. I have all of the service/parts records since bought brand new from the previous owner, this thing has been on for years now

    Thanks!

    I've used these folks for my ARB installs (and would recommend them):

    Thanks Jim, looks like they are literally 5min from my house, so I'll give them a try. Appreciate it!

    New Radiator and water pump, $621 installed. This sound about right to anyone? My first Jeep and I have no idea on parts/labor etc.

    Huge thanks to Jim for the recommendation. Robert at the shop has been extremely helpful and actually explains what's going on in great detail. Will definitely be a long time customer.

    I think he's the guy that worked with me - helpful and sincere is how I saw him. If not, they have more than one such person there.
