REVscene Automotive Forum - View Single Post - Vancouver mechanic recommendations for Dodge Caravan

toto0 · 05-19-2015, 08:45 PM

Hi All,

I'm new to the forum, but have been gaining a lot of useful info from here. Originally from Australia, but moved to BC towards the end of last year, and more recently just bought a used 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan (yes it's a soccer mum car, I know :P).

The van has a few things that needs replacing including a wheel bearing, an outer tie-rod and the front E-brake cable is broken. Wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a reliable, reasonable mechanic shop in Vancouver/Burnaby/Richmond - I tried doing a search of the forums, but didn't really find anything.

I actually live up in Whistler, and have a rough idea of what it's going to cost to get it done in Whistler (eg for replacement of one wheel bearing and one tie-rod about $510+tax), but I wonder if it would be any cheaper down in Vancouver as it's not much trouble for me to go to the city.

Thanks for any help
