    Blackhorse on Robertson (moved from La Cienega), see Carl the owner. Will set you straight on a PPI.​

    No offense but I used Blackhorse for a PPI on my F430. They are horrible and the PPI was a total joke. A month after my purchase I had to replace the oil/water pump, headers, and other items. Total cost was over $13k, so much for the PPI. Attached is the PPI report from Blackhorse, it looks like it was written by a third grader.

    Wow, sorry to hear about your experience there. But I have done 3 in several years of service and always came out of it well informed.

    I assume car cooled properly and oil pressure was right gauges were showing proper values at purchase etc? PPI's do not detect what will go bad shortly, only whats bad at the time btw.
