    Default Best Shops in Calgary who give a dam about your car?

    If anyone has a list they want to make on any repair shops that actually give a dam about your car that would be just peachy.

    Myself no troubles as of yet with FishCreek Nissan.
    They have serviced 2 of the Nissan's I've had no problems as of yet.
    And they put the bags on your tires if you switching from winter to summer tires

    Anyone else have good repair shops to recommend?

    VW or Audi, go see George at TuneDUB.
    Guy cares way too much about other peoples cars haha.

    edit: a brief story... so I bring my car to him after another 'tech' couldn't figure out an oil leak after installing my K04 turbos. Other guy had my engine out of the car and the turbos off TWICE and couldn't diagnose the oil leak. George points a flashlight up with the car on the hoist. "see that washer? It isn't crushed." Knows VW/Audi better than anyone in Alberta.

    You're lucky, Fish creek nissan is the worst dealership that I've ever dealt with. Wait till you have a major repair, they kept my car for 3 months and overcharged me by 3 thousand and ignored months and months of calls.

    Personally, I goto Minit Automotive on heritage and macloed, the guys there are great to deal with and from what I've seen don't try to rip you off. twice they've fixed cars for me for free because they were 10 second fixes.
    We stopped checking for monsters under our beds when we realized they were inside us.

    For Hyundai, I would stay away from Both precision hyundai and Gallery. had too much work done at both and what a waste of time.

    Gonna try Crowfoot hyundai. hopefully they are better

    Sunridge is the only one who ever gave me half-decent service. Kramer is fucking garbage.

    I agree Southgate isnt very good.. $581.00 For an oil change & a new alternator for a monte carlo car 1995 thats expensive. And this was just last month for my mother.

    Also had a friend who was hired as a lot attendant & they jerked him around about the job. Said he had it come in Monday. Monday he shows up they don't have a friggin clue. I lost my respect for them. So I need an alternative Chev dealer or at least a good shop to take her car in for some work as it may be in need of struts soon. And can't afford to pay an arm & a leg for it.

    Any suggestions that take older Chev cars & do good work would be a good.


    Phenix : I'm unsure as its different everytime I go in there.
    I deal with that woman Monia currently.
