    Hello!

    Does anyone know of a good hybrid/Prius mechanic close to Washington DC? I know there are some further out in the DMV but my car is needing to be towed and cannot be driven at the moment. My car is in Washington DC. Thanks!

    I've messed with the hybrid doctor I think that's his name up in Fairfax VA predominantly he does battery work and some electrical work I believe he's also got some connections right there in his area for a shop or two that does mechanical work so depending upon what you need that might be a good start I don't know anybody in DC personally I can't imagine having to have a shop in DC proper and would cost a fortune just 20 miles one way and prices would drop so significantly wow.

    Have you tried any of the Japanese auto shops in Arlington?

    What’s the car got? Hybrid battery?
    Brakes?

    I used green bean when my hv battery went out. They had a lifetime warranty policy at the time and come to you.
