I couldn't even leave a message to see why I never got my radiator. I called monday they said they were going to send it to the Falkland store and I can pick it up there, this angered me as I was told they would ship it to me so after a few choice words I received it at my house that afternoon .

These guys provided the BEST experience I've ever had at a mechanic…read more I was driving into Kamloops off the highway and my truck had been making a weird noise and was getting progressively worse. Since I needed to keep heading north for another couple hours, I decided to get it looked at. I didn't spend too much time looking up reviews, just wanted to find a place nearby. I called Southgate and while they warned me they were closing soon and may not be able to repair anything, they said they'd at least take a look. I showed up, they asked a few questions, and then took the truck in while my girlfriend and I waited outside. About 20 mins later the guy called us back into the office where one of the mechanics explained that a rod connecting the A/C compressor to the engine had failed and was causing overheating and the noise. He said that if I had kept driving, the whole engine would have seized up! Amazing! These guys just saved me thousands of dollars and being stranded for days. They disconnected the compressor and removed the plate and now, while the AC wouldn't work, the engine was safe to drive. When I asked how much I owed them, they politely waived me off. "No charge" they said. I tried to insist, but it was no use. Have you ever heard of such a thing?! These guys are not only pros, they're damn honest and community minded. I live down in Vancouver so can't throw much business their way, but if you live around Kamloops, choose Southgate and support a business who cares about people and goes above and beyond -- even when they don't need to. Five stars is not nearly enough.

When my tire was punctuated, my schedule was pretty very urgent for heading to Banff. However they fixed my tire promptly, therefore they are surely the best in my experience.....

Fast forward to last week when the transmission began to make a whining sound and I became worried as I had only put about 36,000 km on the transmission since it was installed in my vehicle. Aamco was closed at the time so I took it into Great Canadian Oil Change to have them do a transmission fluid change to see if that would help. The manager of the oil change shop raised alarm bells for me when he told me that every transmission store knows that when they buy a used cvt transmission they have to install a new transmission screen because the auto wreckers drain the transmissions and remove the metal screens. He said that mine had been removed and a new one had not been installed when it should have been. So, I contacted Aamco and learned that there were new owners (James and Michael). It wasn't long before James called me back and said that he was sorry for my troubles and that he would look at it when it was convenient for me, which was today. James brought the vehicle into his shop, gave me a lift to my office, and then delivered the vehicle back to me at my office when the vehicle was ready after putting in a new screen and refilling the transmission with new fluids. He asked me to check back in with him in a few days to let him know if it was driving fine and said there would be no charge for anything and that he was happy to be able to look after me. I highly recommend these guys. They could have just as easily either charged me something or told me that it wasn't their problem. But, they didn't. Instead, they went out of their way to make me happy even though there was no money in it up front for them. They are very honourable young men and I truly wish them every success in their new business. - Peter Cameron-Inglis, Owner & Producer, Mastermind Studios BC Interior Centre for Film & Digital Media Kamloops, BC

You don't have to go the dealer…read more.. Franco's Auto Service has been in Kamloops for, well, as long as i can remember and arguably the most respected independent auto service business in Kamloops. Franco's unofficially specializes in the higher end European and Japanese vehicles but don't worry he will work on your POS as well :P Franco is one of those old school European trades people, he takes his craft and reputation VERY seriously. An ex-Ferrari race mechanic (yea, no kidding!); although, he has long since stopped turning wrenches himself and has focused on running his business. I understand that Franco expects the same pride in their craft of his technicians as he has, thus they are among the best in Kamloops. Francos' boasts very clean, bright and organized facility... I don't think eating off the floor would be recommended, but you probably could, safely. A full service shop, from oil changes in your Ford Focus to replacing the transmission in your 5 series BMW, at rates that are better than the dealer. Aside to the service, Franco does deal in used vehicles to a minor degree (usually 1/2 dozen vehicles at a time), offering mostly VW and Honda. These cars are generally in very good shape, thus not cheap used, but quality used.
