Honest independent mechanic in Los Angeles area

I'm not sure who posted this or referred me to him, but I went to Avi in Tujunga yesterday. OMG, he's amazing. He spent an hour and a half chatting with me and playing with my a/c, which is blowing hot air. He eventually refilled my a/c with whatever it is that they fill it with (he knew that it was special Prius stuff)...and he did it for free. He's ordering some parts he wants to replace as the coolant has a very very slow leak, maybe something as simple as O rings. What a great guy, he has his own Prius, which was parked next to my car. His engine looks just a touch cleaner than mine.

Anyway, many many thanks to whoever told me about Avi!
