Northern VA RX repair Loudoun area

Does anyone here have experience with shops in the Loudoun county area that has reliable, reasonable, and good repairs? I am even considering the Fairfax Browns and Mazda in Chantilly but know that you all must have had experience with them and others ?? Any thoughts and comments welcome.

I am something going on with the engine (odd sounds right now) and what appears to be the heater/cooler problem which is described in other threads. I have about 55K on the vehicle and it's been great up to recently.

Thanks in advance.

I used to be the body shop manager at Brown's, if you take your car there ask for Greg and tell him I sent you.

I have had nothing but good experiences with Brown's Mazda in Fairfax. They are probably one of the least shady dealers I've ever encountered.

I would also recommend Kyle Rusert who used to work at Rotary Performance in Manassas. He was working at another shop right next door and installed my BHR radiator, Evan's NPG-R coolant, Mazmart waterpump, and thermostat and did a great job and was super attentive and friendly. When I talked to him not too long ago he had moved shops again though and was even talking about potentially getting out of working on cars altogether.

I don't feel right posting his info publicly without asking him but shoot me a PM and I can give you his email and phone #.

I have had zero issues with Chantilly Mazda. I take my 8 there for everything.

So far the people there are good, don't talk down to me like I'm some kind of idiot and aren't pushy.
