Why come to an independent shop

Dealer labour rates are high, and dealers tend to replace whole assemblies. We diagnose to the part, give you a choice of OEM or quality equivalent parts where it makes sense, and explain the difference in plain language.

Servicing your car here does not affect your manufacturer warranty, as long as the work is done to spec. We keep records of everything we do.

Asian imports

Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, Subaru and Nissan make up a big part of what rolls through our doors. Most of them just need honest maintenance done on time, and they will run for a very long time.
