Scheduled maintenance, brakes, check-engine diagnostics, and the repairs Calgary roads and winters actually cause — done right, explained in plain language, and priced fairly.

We tell you what needs doing now, what can wait and what doesn't need touching — in writing, before any work.
Licensed inspection facility
Out-of-province and pre-purchase inspections done on-site, so you're legal and confident.
Serviced for our winters and our roads
Calgary's salt, potholes and deep cold wear brakes, suspension and batteries faster than a mild climate would, and short winter trips are hard on engines and oil. Even reliable Japanese and domestic vehicles need maintenance timed to that reality.
We prioritise the things that actually matter here — cold-weather starting, braking and suspension condition, and fluid service that accounts for short-trip, extreme-temperature driving.
Pricing & estimates
Synthetic oil changes start at $114 and winter or all-season tire changeovers are $160 for four, mounted and balanced. Everything else is quoted up front: you get a written estimate before any work, and under Alberta's AMVIC rules we can't exceed it by more than 10% (max $100) without your approval.

Do you only work on European cars?
No — European and German cars are our specialty, but we're a full-service shop for every make, including Japanese and domestic vehicles and light trucks. Same bench, same standards.
How much is an oil change?
Synthetic oil changes start at $114, done to your manufacturer's spec and with a multi-point check. The final price depends on your vehicle and oil capacity — we'll confirm it before we start.
My CVT feels like it's slipping — can you service it?
Yes. CVTs (common on Nissan and others) are sensitive to fluid condition, and timely service makes a real difference. We diagnose the symptom and service the transmission with the correct fluid.
Can you do my out-of-province inspection?
Yes. We're a licensed inspection facility and handle out-of-province inspections as well as pre-purchase inspections on-site in Calgary SE.
Do you work on high-mileage vehicles?
Absolutely. A lot of what we do is keeping well-cared-for Toyotas, Hondas, Fords and GM vehicles reliable well past 200,000 km with honest maintenance and repairs.
