what he meant was that his repairs were approaching the threshold for a total loss assuming the correct market value. however, since Audatex had come back with a higher valuation, his vehicle was below the threshold and ICBC would have repaired it.

and it's not just ICBC which blindly relies on Audatex's valuation.. all private insurers in Alberta do so as well. No one is ever happy with the valuation unless they had paid substantially less than market value for their vehicle.
