Eamon, Barry and Travis fly in the face of convention when it comes to 

SAAB repair! Not only are these guys second to none in the SAAB repair 

arena, they make owning, driving and fixing my little problem fun. Super 

knowledgeable, friendly and best of all helpful. Travis stayed after hours 

to do the belts on my 900T the other night after I found out I had to go 

drive to Montana for a funeral. Without them, I would be walking. -Thanks 

guys!

I can only second all the comments left here regarding Atomic Auto. 

Travis, Barry and Eamon all go the extra mile to provide outstanding 

service, be it in shop or on the phone. I've been driving SAABs since 

1971 and to say that the services provided by Atomic Auto are outstanding 

is an understatement!!

More words of praise for Atomic Auto Repair.  After spending a nice 

weekend visiting Portland from Seattle my husband and I attempted to 

return home only to find our fuel pump had given up the ghost.  I jumped 

on saabnet(thanks!) and found Atomic Auto Repair.  They went above and 

beyond.  Not only did they get the job done way under quote, they were 

very friendly, helpful and knowledgable.  They even stayed late to get 

us back on the road and headed home!  The crowning moment was when  given 

incorrect direction by one of their mechanics he jumped in his car and 

raced after us to give us correct directrion.  We couldn't have asked 

for a better experiance.  I will be making the trek from Seattle to 

Portland for all of my saab needs.

Our family ownes two saabs, a 1989 9000CD Turbo and a 1994 900S 

Convertable.  The owner of Atomic Auto, Travis Decker has been our 

mechmic for several years.  Mr Decker is not only extremely knowledgable 

about all aspects of the Saab whole but is very responsive and timely 

when our Saabs need some TLC.  Mr. Decker has given us excellent 

service, tells us the what's and wherefores so that we can understand 

the issues with our babies !!...and, is also cost effective!!!

Travis has worked on my SAAB for the last 5 years.  He is best mechanic I 

have ever worked with.  He provides excellent customer service and really 

knows his stuff. All of his repairs have been done extremely well and he 

stands behind all his work. Travis can instantly diagnose a problem. The 

customer always comes first. He frequently offers a innovative solution 

that can save a substantial amount of money. I recommend him without 

reservation and would be happy to talk to anyone inquiring about his work.

Pat Proctor (Owner and Operator). ASE Certified Master SAAB Technician and

ever met (a little too honest sometimes!) and will never throw any surprises

or hidden costs at you. Best SAAB mechanic you will find in the state of

Oregon and is a true SAAB enthusiast (drives a Black '89 900 SPG Turbo!).

Best prices anywhere.

This is a single person run European auto repair shop. On 

outward appearance it seamed he specializes in German cars however I was 

surprised to find the owner is a huge Saab fan and owns three currently 

himself. He also has the factory scan tool for my 93 9000. (ISAT if I’m 

not mistaken) So over the last few months there has not been anything I 

have needed that he hasn’t been able to do. Johnny, the owner, has been 

quit friendly and the shop prices have been very reasonable, much 

cheaper than I was use to paying where I moved from. I have been very 

happy with the service I have received and would recommend this shop to 

anyone with a European car especially a Saab.

Saab and Volvo service.  Very fair pricing, great work.  Job done correctly

the first time.  Uses top quality fluids and parts, but they will give you

the option to install used parts if you so choose.  Won't suggest

unnecessary work needs to be done on your car.  Wants to build a loyal

customer base, so they don't take advantage of their clientele.  All in

all, a very fine shop.  Highly recommended.

Submitted by Daniel Kaempff

In today's automotive repair market, I've found it difficult to match the level of expertise and honestly that comes from a small, family owned and operated repair shop like T. Scandia. The fair prices and the passion that their technicians have for their work are things that I've never found at a dealership.

 

Ben Dibb, T. Scandia's lead Saab tech, has been keeping my Saab(s) on the road for the last 10 years. His sense of humor and willingness to not just repair, but to educate me about my Saab , has led me to believe that when it comes to Saab service in the Portland Metro area, T. Scandia cannot be beat. As evidence, I offer up the fact that although I used to live close to their shop, I have since moved to deep North Portland, yet I still make the 40 minute commute to have my Aero serviced by Ben....and it's always been worth the drive!
