My brother recomended Gil's after they replaced the AC system in his Jeep. He is also very particular for detailed work. I have 30 year old Volvo and they were happy to work on it. Volvo dealers don't seem very enthused about working on older cars for many reasons. Gil's is a friendly small family buisness repair shop.

The guys at Gil’s were great to deal with and they were able to diagnose and provide services very quickly. Their estimate was very thorough and the work was accomplished in a very timely basis. They performed a thorough check of the vehicle condition while it was in for service.
