Mechanic recommendations for the Stuart/Port St. Lucie, Florida area

Folks, I’m moving from SoCal to the Stuart area in a month or so. Looking for a well respected mechanic for my 911, 996, 997, and 991. A search is proving fruitless.

Suggestions?

Well, I took your advice and reset the PCM, then did the XM radio reset you mentioned, and it’s all good now.

I am not actually a SIRIUS XM subscriber, but that didn't seem to matter.

Thanks...
