In Austin, I used both Phoenix Motor Works on West 6th Street and Kenny Hill Autowerks off S. Lamar. Both were competent to work on the car. Kenny Hill is a VW specialty shop, but the owner is familar with the D24 engine. For the first 6 years I owned the car, I used a great shop off Anderson Lane called Dave's Imports. Dave had a diesel wagon and really knew the diesels. Sadly, he closed up shop and retired to the country in 2006.
In San Antonio, I used Autobahn Automotive off of 410 and Starcrest. Also competent.
In Dallas, I used Dallas Elect Auto Center. Competent shop, as well. Have no idea if they are still around.
I hope this is helpful for other Texas members.
