Brake Service
Our brake service includes comprehensive inspections of pads, rotors, and fluid systems to ensure safety and performance. We use manufacturer-recommended protocols to address wear and corrosion common in Manitoba's climate. Clients receive detailed diagnostics and transparent recommendations to prevent accidents and costly repairs.
Wheel Alignment
We perform precision alignments using laser-guided equipment to adjust caster, camber, and toe angles. This service extends tire life, improves handling, and prevents uneven wear caused by Manitoba's pothole-ridden roads. Technicians follow factory specifications for front and rear suspension systems.

Our AC repairs address refrigerant leaks and system inefficiencies using specialized tools for R134a and 1234YF systems. Technicians diagnose complex issues in domestic and import vehicles, ensuring optimal cooling performance even during extreme summer heat.
Diagnostic Services
We utilize advanced diagnostic tools to identify engine and electrical system faults. Our technicians interpret error codes and perform hands-on tests to resolve check engine light issues, sensor malfunctions, and drivability concerns with accuracy.
Tire Replacement
We offer tire sales and installation with a free alignment check for purchases of four tires. Our inventory includes major brands suited for Manitoba's seasonal conditions, with proper disposal of old tires included in every service.
