Re: Any contacts at Martins VW (SSheikh)
Jorge Portalea has taken care of me in the past (he pronounces it "George" not "HOR-hay").
He used to be a service writer at EuroMotorCars in Bethesda before they dropped their Acura franchise. I used to deal with him there when I had my Integra. Everything always went smoothly at both dealers.
I've never had a problem with the work at Marten's, but I have had to wait pretty long for parts a couple of times. One of those times, though, wasn't their fault -- I dropped my car off at 8am on Sept. 11. Needless to say, it was kind of hard to get parts shipped in for a few days afterwards....
[edit: they have given me a loaner when the car has been in the shop for a while, but I also bought the car from them. I don't know about their loaner policy for people who didn't buy directly from them].
