Can anyone recommend a diesel service shop near Anaheim?

Well I don't have any problems yet and I'm going to try to do most of my own service (maybe not an oil change since I don't know how I am going to drain 34 qts of oil!) but I would like to hear some recommendations on shops near Anaheim that can service/repair the Beaver. I'd like to have this info on hand before I need it....

Try Pete's in Fullerton. I used them when I was staying in Anaheim last year to do the service on my C7 Cat. They did a great job, very reasonable too.

I assume you mean Colton Truck Terminal on Valley Blvd?...I saw them on the RV Service Reviews before I posted this thread and was pretty impressed with the comments. I was hoping to find something closer but I don't mind driving a little ways to get quality service!

Thanks to all who responded!

Colton Truck Terminal is great, I have used them in the past on a number of occasions. Good thing is, they do not make you bring your coach in and then let it sit for weeks before they touch it, they get right on it.

Yes, and I was one of the posters on RV Service Reviews.

They did:
-All wheel alignment
-Trans change over to Synthetic and filters
-Oil Change and filters
-Air Cartridge
-Differential fluid change
-Wheel hubs
-All over inspection of chassis

I felt I was in good hands.

One thing about Colton Truck is that they do not work on any house stuff. They are strictly chassis, engine, transmission.
