2013 Duramax WT
B and C is on point. I was going somewhere else to address the issues with my regen. It was back and forth spitballing with several visits. Ray and Cory handled it first shot. I’m never going anywhere else. Very knowledgeable and friendly atmosphere. I’ll give my money to these folks any day! Just going there and talking to them is worth the trip. You should see some of the product they’re putting out. Very impressive work! Thank you B and C!

They know there stuff!
I took my truck in, Itwas having problems starting every once in a while. Cory came over popped the hood took a vacuum hose off. There’s your problem he stated. Immediately Found the problem and then Ray installed the part and I was on my way. Doesn’t get any better than that! I recommend B&C Automotive Repair to anyone and everyone out there. Honest, Friendly,Trustworthy.
