Default Trustworthy Auto service in Edmonton

Hi I'm new here. I'm considering buying a used 2nd Gen Durango & is looking for a trustworthy auto shop(s) to do the following works:

1. Replace brake fluid
2. Replace ATF
3. Flush & replace coolant
4. Replace front/rear shocks
5. Full detailing (interior/exterior)
6. Replace spark plugs

An idea of how much each of the above works will cost will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I dunno if you are looking for an OEM shop or not, but I've been EXTREMELY happy with Capital Dodge in the south end.

They have been very fair, very knowledgable and have delivered on every promise they've made as far as ensuring my truck is repaired in a timely manner. This is important when you travel over 400km to have your truck serviced!

Unhappy

well, i have no doubt that capital dodge will do a great job but are they expensive? how do they charge for labor per hour? are their parts price reasonable?

i've got a quote from a outside shop that charges labor at $98 per hour but their parts prices are highly inflated....

I think Capital is a little more than that.. IIRC $120ish/hr... beats the shop up here.. $190/hr. Any job over 2-3hours its worth a free trip to Edmonton..

I'd give them a call to find out though. As I said, they are very helpful, very knowledgable.

Try the service of Apex specialized automotive Inc. I think they can find you the best solution in an affordable range. I am experiencing their high valued import car service for about three years. I think it will perfectly suit you just like mine.

Out of Curiosity, I went to their site.. Asian Car Servicing... Now, we might have some italian influence in Dodge now that Fiat is around... but I'm not sure I'd want to take my vehicle to somewhere they obviously clearly specialize in something else...

JMHO of course...

Given that was your first post... you don't happen to work/market for them do you?

**Note: I'm not sure if this guy works for them or what, but he's appeared to have spammed a bunch of BMW, and other import boards with similar posts to above... Proceed with caution.
