Vancouver Mechanics

Hi,

I've seen some posts for body shops, and also aftermarket parts shops in Vancouver, but can I ask where you guys are taking your cars in to get serviced? My warranties up, and I'm sick of the dealers (I've gone through three of them...), but am not sure where else to go?

Look up Eunos.ca They are predominantly Miata and RX-7 shop. But they do service rx-8s like oil change, tranny & rear diff oil etc...
Located in North Vancouver.

Dannobre's right.

The fact that on occasion, dealerships have phoned up (specifically) "one of our members" for expert advice on problems they haven't seen before - should give you an idea how much skill the club contains.

If your looking for basic help doing your own DIY, then the mechanical workshop is where its at.

Hope to see you at our next event!

I've submitted my registration for the BC RX-8 Club, and you'll likely see me at the next event, so thanks for that! It doesn't surprise me to hear the dealers have called someone else for advice - on more than one occasion I've left their shop wondering if they really know what they are doing...sigh!

I'll also check out Eunos.ca, so thanks for that as well!
