[A4] Mechanic Recommendation, Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, BC?

[Stephen Kormilo]

Phil,

I can't see how a cherry picker is going to help with replacing a rear 
transmission seal. The transmission doesn't need to be removed from the 
car in order to do the repair & a cherry picker can't pick the whole car 
up, IIRC. I have no storage space either ;)
