Brought my Fiat here for a second opinion after KalTire recommended I get both my front struts replaced, and soon (saying it's dangerous), because of a leak etc - quoting me $600+ when I was there then emailing me an estimate for $1100. My spidey senses said get a second opinion (as did telling a friend and having them say they wouldn't trust that) - I first looked online and saw that my car having had only 74,000kms, no sign of leaks and no feeling of the lunge forward that you hear about, made me start looking around for a trustworthy mechanic. I called two - and Wee was the first to say I should bring it by, and they'd have a look for free. Well, no real surprise when they said a test drive didn't indicate anything urgent, then when they hoisted it to look under, they said they didn't see anything concerning - apart from I will need new rear brakes soon - and did KalTire mention that? Um... NO. Anyway, he said to wait - the car will scream at me - either a screechy noise or squeal when it's time. (And intuitively, I'd been concerned about the brakes because it hasn't been stopping as cleanly as it used to, but they still work and don't make a noise of any kind). Anyway, he said he'd have to see what happens when they dismantle things but it will likely cost around $550 to get them done. Sounds reasonable... and I like how they think. Wee also showed me a few documents while I was there about struts - what to look for - how you know they need replacing etc. Definitely inspires my trust; I asked if he has a daughter - he said yes - my gut told me he did by the empathy and compassion he showed me. Haven't had anything done yet but I will be back. These guys are good guys my gut also tells me - I don't believe they intentionally rip anyone off regardless of other posts. :) Thank you Wee and staff! read more

honest, fair, good communication, good people, what else could you ask for in a mechanic

I assume this is the same Auto Repairs R Wee that is now on Victoria Drive. I'm writing this review of my experience from June 2020. Anyways, after the engine light went on in my car and my car started stalling everywhere I first took it to Discount Auto on Clark Drive where they were not able to find the problem. They told me they disconnected to engine light for me and then charged me $30 for the diagnostic. So soon after my car stalled in an intersection, and based on a recommendation from a friend I took it to Auto Repairs R Wee to see if they could find the problem. These guys drove it around and gave it a way more thorough lookover... found two problems with it, one being the source of my car stalling. I decided to end the life of my car because it wasn't worth all the work it needed besides that particular problem. I asked them how much for the diagnostic anyways and they told me to not worry about it. On top of not charging me for the work, they were also really nice. read more

Honest mechanic, quick to quote a price and lets you bring in your own parts. Had to switch a water pump out, looked it up and saw you needed to drop the engine on my van so that was a definite no go. $200 to Mr. Wee and it's been smooth ever since. They work fast and are pretty no nonsense. My friend recommended I check them out because they always do good work. Definitely not the cheapest on the block, but if you want good, fast and honest work you won't find that cheap any where else. read more

I dealt with Brian. He diagnosed what was wrong with my car, gave me a quote and fixed the problem. Straight forward. Price was fair. I would recommend this place. Too bad they don't open on Saturdays. read more

How long does it take to oil change? Called in a day in advance and scheduled an appointment. Next day on arrival to garage, Wee, the garage owner, said it is going to take two hours. Wee said he will call when car is ready. Wee never called. Four hours later my wife went back to garage, only to find out our car is still parked at same spot. Then Wee went to oil change and finished in 15 minutes. It took him fours and 15 minutes to do oil change, despite we booked service a day in advance. 1 star will never come back. read more

Not very friendly staff, unfortunately they are not getting my business again. Found them through groupon. Wanted to give them a second try with a walk-in oil change, greeted by grumpy elder gentleman who is in charge of the shop. Walked out of the shop with no pleasant service. read more

I have been coming here with my vehicles for 10 years now. I didn't know anything about car mechanics then and I still don't know anything about them now. These guys know that about me and have always treated me fairly and with nothing but genuine honesty. I recommend this garage to others just like me who have no clue what happens under the hood of their car. Even though I'm terribly unfamiliar and frankly very uninterested in car mechanics I've never once felt intimidated, cheated or inadequate while dealing with them. That's a real comfort!! Take it from me, these guys are awesome! Tell Wee that the clueless guy with the Corolla sent ya;) read more

Timing belt repair was not done correctly. The mechanic forgot to replace some sealing grommets or seals when the engine valve cover was put on causing a noxious smell to enter the cabin of the car. I took it to Honda who informed me of what happened and made the fix which cost me extra. They tried to charge me for replacing wiper blades when they weren't They tried to charge me for replacing engine air filter when it wasn't. I put it a K&N in myself a few months back The charged me for replacing a cabin filter when it wasn't - Honda verified this for me. I ask you, would you trust a shop that can cheat it's customers this way. Not everyone does an inventory of all the work that is supposed to be done properly but this is just piece of mind the next time you decide to go to Auto Repairs R Wee. Since I busted them, Wee gave me $50 bucks after I returned questioning all of the charges and said it was an oversight. Really? * Inspection of the timing belt found other problems such as a zip tie holding components together, filed down bolt, a metal rocker piece bolted on too tightly etc. read more

Being a new owner of a 30-year-old camper van, there is a lot to learn! Between panic attacks of not knowing if she's running correctly my Dad took me into the shop for a few questions. Brian was absolutely amazing and reassured me more than I can say about my investment. I drove away with new confidence and more knowledge. Will definitely be going back if I need anything! Thanks Brian!! *edit...sorry Brian, not Dave read more

Good stuff! Went in for an oil change I got with a groupon. They washed my car, plus noticed a coolant leak I had forgot about, and quoted on it's repair at the same time. read more

Good, reliable, and affordable service. This place has been around for a long time and that should tell you that they do honest work. Their staff aren't ultra chipper like at some of the bigger chain stores, but honestly how much does that really matter? They're real people running a local business, and they'll treat you like a human being. My car will be going to them for the foreseeable future. read more

These guys are great!! Honest and trustworthy! Been going here for years and always feel satisfied with their services

The mechanics are nice and friendly but the service is not professional. For examples, I just replaced two new tires a year ago and the other tires are wearing out but the report says 65% remaining on all tires. There are no signatures on report ,so they can avoid accident responsibility. read more

Been going here for years. Trustworthy staff and fixed many a vehicle for me over the years.

I bought an '89 Tercel and took it into Wee's to have a look over. He told me that the car was safe and that there was one thing he'd fix, but that it wasn't a safety issue. He didn't charge me, said it was a complimentary service to take a look at my car, which I know is not the case with every mechanic. His suggestion was that I drive the car until my next oil change to make sure I like the car and want to keep it before putting a bunch of money into it. I took it back today because two weeks later, I love this little car and I want to take good care of it. I am a little unfamiliar with cars and this is my first real car. I asked another mechanic, James, to show me how to check my fluids and he did, and he didn't make me feel silly, stupid or like I was wasting his time. Both Wee and James are very friendly and neither want to do unnecessary work that costs me unnecessary money. I don't know anything about cars and I brought them a car that is over thirty years old. I am the perfect person to take advantage of in terms of unnecessary spending: I'm willing to spend a little money on this car because I love it, I really wouldn't know otherwise, and my car makes all kinds of sounds that make you think it's struggling, but really, it's just old. I will always come to Wee with my car. I feel like both my little old car and I are in really good hands. Super nice dudes: fair, honest, kind and generous. read more

Went here once because it was conveniently nearby. BIG mistake. Problem only half fixed and came back within a month. Unfriendly and borderline rude staff. read more

to anyone in Vancouver who has a vehicle and needs a mechanic they can trust, hit up these guys... Super friendly, honest, helpful and affordable. Highly recommend them to anyone who needs a lil auto love. I wont go anywhere else. Did i mention honest?? They're the best. read more

Poor service, overpriced, not what I expected. Would look for another option if I were you!

Honest, Straightforward and very reasonably priced! Can't ask for more in auto service. I've trusted our cars to Wee for many years and never been disappointed. read more
