Hit a massive pothole just after reaching Toronto & immediately felt something off. After a few minutes expert googling I came across Joel & JR Auto Works. Went from just a headlight & brake install to a full on front axle, and suspension repair. From beginning to end Joel and his team were very responsive, accommodating, and transparent in everything. Joel went above and beyond to diagnose, recommend options, and answer any questions I had. Joel has gained a lifelong customer and will definitely be back.

The Salespeople are honest, and the Mechanics at "Principal Auto" are professionals in providing excellent service of the maintenance of your vehicle. The Sales Manager, Dusiy, who sold me my vehicle, was completely honest and helpful throughout the time of the purchase of my vehicle. Dusiy was completely honest with me about all the history of my vehicle before I had purchased it, and he had shown me all the legal documents that were related to it. Dusiy the Sales Manager was completely fair and honest about all the history and technical details about the vehicle I was planning to purchase from Principal Auto. I felt I was completely and honestly informed about all the history and details of my Honda Civic. Dusiy the Sales Manager offered me a reasonable price for the purchase of my vehicle. To be certain that I had received a completely fair price for my vehicle, Dusiy had installed new brake pads and rotors for all four tires, and he also installed four new tires and four new springs and forks for a new suspension system. Dusiy the Sales Manager installed all these important parts on to my Honda Civic that I had purchased without me even asking for anyone of these parts. He had his technical staff install all these new parts for free on to my Honda Civic so that he can be certain that I will receive the most affordable and best price possible for the purchase of my Honda Civic from "Principal Auto." I highly recommend "Principal Auto" for any person looking to buy a high-quality vehicle at an affordable price. Kenneth Stripelis

That included the time for the parts guy to deliver my parts. Has rear stabilizer bar bushings replaced due to excessive play and clunky noise. Past mechanics couldn't diagnose it properly until Lim did it in passing. So I'm impressed. Front stabilizer bar links seized and got those replaced too. This is for a 16 yr old car. Lim is a good guy. The old guy, says he's been doing mechanic work since 1986. If you're no stranger to car repair and maintenance, the price for parts and labour is right.

No monetary-value goes into a fancy waiting room or coffee machine. Summary: If you wish to pay for honest, economical and high-quality automotive services Gilman Auto is for you. If you wish your hard earned cash to pay for gourmet coffee machines, a fancy waiting room and a premium garage (with potentially inferior service), go to a dealership. Full Review: Welcome to one of the best and respected local mechanic shop in Scarborough Ontario. Raymond Lee has over 30 years of experience in automotive repair, maintenance, performance modifications and customizations at fair prices. In fact at first sight you will be turned off by the humble industrial unit, crumbling tiled waiting room floor, and half-naked calendar girls hanging on the walls. As you peer through the door marked "customers cannot enter work area" you will be shocked by the mass of car parts stacked on shelves and the floor, the hanging florescent lights and the foreboding presence of mechanical chaos. If you have the stones to refrain from judging this book by its cover, you will not be disappointed. Gilman Auto has a large "fan-base" of intensely loyal customers throughout the Greater Toronto Area consisting of import enthusiasts, club racers and performance fanatics. The reason these folks and yours truly respect and admire Raymond is due to his honesty, high-quality work and the pride he and his staff put into their work. Not only does he provide quality service for a fair price, he stands by his work. Unlike the dealerships Raymond's bread and butter is repeat business and word-of-mouth recommendations to friends and family. Additionally Raymond doesn't just fix cars, he also competitively road races (in a recreational capacity) his own race prepared Honda Prelude as evidenced by the numerous trophies displayed in-store. He knows his stuff, from common (but often expensive) maintenance to full out performance builds on both imports and domestics. Bottom line is that Gilman Auto offers high quality, open and honest automotive services at very fair prices. Keep an open mind and look past the facilities, you'll be glad you did. Oh and for the record no one knows what he says when he picks up the phone ... could be "Gilman" or "good afternoon" or "Mel Lastman". Don't ask, just tell him that Jerry from the Prelude Club sent you :)

I am not a person that has the habit of writing reviews but they truly deserve a praise…read more Not many shops are genuine and proper in the auto industry but Noyzboyz is like no other. Their staff are the sweetest people, always making sure you are taken care of. They are also super transparent, keeping you updated throughout the process and ensuring that everything is within budget (without sacrificing quality ofc) On top of all that, the shop's guest area is always kept neat and tidy with some nice performance parts on display, there is also abundant seating area. They can do pretty much all mods and services, I would 100% recommend them to my friends and come back again when my car needs servicing. It makes sense how they have been around for decades and they will continue to be my favourite auto shop in the Scarborough area

You'd expect that when you purchase something so expensive, and bring it to a pretty high end exhaust shop, you would get service that is appropriate to the price. These guys essentially destroyed the y-pipe and my stock catalytic converters by welding them together instead of taking the harder (but paid for job) and mounting them together by the flanges. after they are finished with this pathetic work they call high quality, they charged me $550. not only that, they took the gaskets I had provided them with, not a huge deal but always scheming for just a bit more right? Say goodbye to the resale or reusability value of my 400$ ypipe and $1000 cats. Welding might have been okay if it was mentioned and confirmed by me before doing it but they just went right ahead without my consent. I will never be coming back and will recommend EVERYONE I know to never set foot in your "store". If you want exhaust work done, do not come here. So many places will do it cheaper and properly.

My family has been going to Hide Auto Centre since I can remember. His specialty is Japanese cars (honda and toyota), but Hide Auto Centre also fixes european and american cars. Hide is an extremely nice man and very trusting. He never "overcharges" for ghost fees or tries to upsell you to do fix something random with your car. One thing that I really appreciate is that he always goes over the entire bill with you. He also will explain to you exactly what happened with the car--sometimes bringing you the broken piece--so you know what he's fixing. When you first walk into his small store-front, keep in mind that his waiting area is not a nice frily waiting area of an overpriced dealership repair shop, filled with a cappucino maker and an endless supply of day-old donuts. Remeber that you're paying to have your car fixed, not to be entertained while you wait. The waiting area is small, with only a few chairs. There's coffee available and a small tv to entertain yourself. It's probably a good idea to bring a book to read if you're going to wait.
