Oh man, who the heck told me his name was Ed LUHAN.

Ooh, so your main man is Ed.

I just wish they never washed the car. I even told the advisor, they still did, and the window visors have micro scratches now.

hahaa, his name is pronouced as ed "luhan". it's just like san jose, you pronouce it as san "hosay", but not san "josee" right?

umm, interesting. i know for a fact that they have rules that they do not wash lowered cars especially with wheels. they never wash my car (i decline the wash anyway)

Ahhh, right! haha, It would sound funny it we start saying "San Josseee" LOL

My car is pretty much stock. So, i guess they just washed it. Thankfully, there is no micro scratches on the paint, amazingly enough. Thanks to Zaino.

Pocky, thanks for the thumbs up! Glad to see your happy with the work i did on your car. Sorry for the car wash, we wont make the same mistake next time. If you do decide to see us for service, I'll get you a discount!

I've been doing all my maintainence at Longo since I bought my GS from them in 1999. I've also referred some people for new car purchases there. The sales department was very nice, most of the people I talked to, especially Elizabeth Hyun (before she worked somewhere else) were always helpful and courteous.

The service department was great when Verone was there. Not only was he mod-friendly, he was everything-friendly. Later on, Hector Martinez took over my service needs and again he was a great guy in just about every aspect.

After Hector left it was all downhill. No one was mod-friendly anymore. They didn't want to take responsibility for anything wrong with my car (that was while still under warranty period), and they were somehow doing diagnostics on my car from their cubicles. Either that or they hire elementary kids to road test my car.

Around 80k miles, they couldn't find out what was wrong with the misfiring of my car, and suggested that I get a new throttle body (??). I went to my bro's friend who worked at a Toyota dealer before and owns a near 1000hp Supra for a diagnostics. After 1 min of test drive he said replace the spark plugs, and the car has been smooth ever since. It's great to have someone who knows 2JZ to do my engine work.

Man Wong, what a character. Went to him 3 times, each time with him calling me at least 10 times over the period of a few days asking me to return the loaner car. Like many others at Longo, he treated me as paperwork rather than a customer. There was also this old guy named Phil or something who provided the equal low-notch service but oh well I don't expect anything good from Longo service anymore.

Someone told me that Hector returned from his time in Iraq and is back as a service consultant. Does anyone know if he went back to Longo? Hector was the only one I used before he left.
