Or just bring $300 to Canadian Tire on Boxing Day, buy yourself some nice tools and learn how to do things yourself. Google and YouTube have made it possible for even someone with no real mechanical experience to self-teach themselves basic maintenance and simple repairs..

No offense to the legit shops and techs out there, but I have a buddy who has apprenticed at multiple shops in the GVRD and some of his stories are appalling to say the least. I wouldn't trust any shop with my car unless it was somewhere well-known like the Speed Syndicate, and even then I would only go for things I can't do at home such as alignments.
