I'm based in Donacarney, Co. Meath.
Hoping someone can help.
Many thanks

Thanks Charlie for your help. I was hoping to find a mechanic closer to home as I've been advised not to drive her at all. A tow truck to Galway would be expensive

There's a car mechanic living down the road from the old school in Donacarney. He fixes taxis mostly but his brother runs the 911 racing in Mondello and the likes. Supposed to be one of the best Porsche mechanics around, he's based in the Naul

You could try Barry Whelan, on Lullymore Terrace, off the SCR. I'm afraid I no longer have his number, though.
