Let me start with I had a slight erratic idle on my pristine 2001 996TT with only 24k on it and may I add a AWESOME MARKSKI TUNE!! 👍. My car ran great and I was referred from a friend to give Switzer performance a call. He said they were very good. It also was less than 2 miles from my house! Anyhow... I had spoke to the daughter of the owner and we arranged to bring my car in. I was very blown away and impressed with the facility and there were atleast 10 Nissan GT-R 's. Tym had showed me one they just finished the build on and again I was very impressed!! Well with me being a business owner I wasn't in a quick rush for my car. I just wanted the problem addressed. After a couple weeks I had stopped in and was told no one knew where Tym was he just left to clear his head?? I left the message for him to call me and let me know some updates on my car. Never heard from him but did hear back from his shop mgr. he asked me to stop in. My girlfriend and I stopped there and Tym wasn't there again.... So we went to the back of the shop while my car was on the lift, and their telling me they had to drop the motor to get to where they "thought" there was a vacuum leak?? And that would be $1800 labor only! No parts! I was blown away! Slight erratic idle turns to my motor being dropped?? Didn't sound right to me... I called the guy I bought the car from and said no way that needs to be done and asked me to get the car to him and he would take care of it. I then called Switzer and spoke to the mgr again and said forget it and have the car ready for me to be picked up. He said fine... Less than 15 mins later he calls back and says the tech noticed a boost leak when he took it for a ride! I came unglued then!! Why I asked him he would let anyone drive my car if I had said no to doing any work on it!?! I was super pissed! Then I get a call from Tym saying let him finish diagnosing the car because he now said they don't have to drop the motor and thinks it's the MAF?? I'm so confused how all this has happened. It sounded to me like a way to get money?? They had my car for 2 months!! And I finally pick my car up and it was worse than when it went in!! Tym said drive it nice and easy home and when things slowed down to bring it back in a week or so to finish diagnosing... I drove home and never been so sick to my stomach that I can hear loud whistling between gears and NO BOOST! It ran like ****!! Strong fumes etc... I parked it and was in utter disbelief on what did I do??? So.... I had talked to the 2 prior owners of the car looking for any help whatsoever. Then I was told Markski had did the tune. I had called him and explained all that happened and planned on trailering the car to him. Then just 2 nights ago one of my employees decided to take a flashlight and crawled underneath the car and said holy ****! Your not going to believe this!! The boost hose was never connected! With guidance by Markski he instructed how to put it back in and connect. Then said to plug the MAF in in which they had that unplugged amongst loose nuts for a bracket that was sitting in there that could have fell out! (What kind of business treats a customers car like that??? ). I took the car for a ride and it was missing horribly and got back and Markski had said to unplug the MAF and took it for a ride and it ran great. At present... I ordered a new MAF. And it's really a shame that this all transpired. I'm not saying there not a good shop and they don't know what their doing. All I'm saying is my experience with them I would never recommend or go there again.

 

Sounds like from the post....they aren't a good shop and they don't know what they're doing. LOL. Glad you are past all that!! Sounds horrible.

 

This may be one of the first bad reviews i've seen on switzer. Sorry to hear your troubles.

 

I think Switzer is one of those places that you do not go to unless you have 100 thousand to spend. Boost hose could have popped off while driving if they were messing with it. The tabs need to be lined up just right on those.

 

Actually the boost hose was in tact prior to going there. Everything was to be honest. I think Tym wasn't the hands on guy on my car. I think it was someone else and didn't pay attention to what he was doing. There were bolts that were sitting near the positive terminal not even tightened in the bracket. What if that bracket would've fell off while I was driving it home? Absolutely would've destroyed something! SMH

 

exactly

 

glad it got ironed out. I miss that car. Markski is the best. Now go find a good road and let me know when ya get it up to 175...

 

Lol!!! That's if I get the time!!! Markski is awesome! I'm waiting on the new MAF. It should be here any day. I'm trying to find you that 997... I'll let you know soon!

 

The other thing is that Tym Switzer is jacked and could beat your azz for posting negative rep.

 

Jacked or not... I'm a business owner and my Rep is everything to me! And my Company shows that. How would you react if your car was gone for 2 months and it came back worse than it came in as??? Tym is not that stupid to jeopardize his business, but he should know that customer satisfaction is everything.

 

I'm just sayin.... I'd be scared.

 

What the @&9&$
Are you in high school

 

Lol, your a tool , that's why we have guns for .

 

Zzzzzzz... And my dad can beat your dad up! Lol.... Such ignorance you gotta laugh!

 

If everything is true, i doubt CPro996TT will get into trouble.
