About 1 year since my warranty expired, and still looking for a good indy shop in Ottawa to perform some of the more difficult maintenance... Any recommendations ? Thanks all..

2nd Tapp - Chris Tapp really knows his stuff. Advanced Autowerks is also pretty decent. Tell either of them Steve with the slightly modified black B6 avant sent ya ...

If you're into getting more info on local stuff, you may want to consider joining our local yahoo group: audiottawa

Thanks for the info, guys...

I actually went to Tapp for my Stage 2 Eurodyne install, injectors, DV and snub mount, but I thought they were mainly a "tune and mod" shop more than all around maintenance.

I'm coming up on 70K, and was looking at potentially having the tranny, coolant and brake fluid flushed before winter.. I have a Bently repair manual and it don't look too bad, but I was curious on how much a shop would charge to flush some fluids out...

I'll contact them.. Thanks again

Definately Tapp.. or Advanced Auto .. Gord knows his ish... I would only go to Tapp for tuning and his 1.8T program.. general maintenance can be had at AA for a better price.

I bought my A4 in Ottawa, did you get yours from Mark Motors on Montreal Road? ...sorry, a little off topic...
I bought a lot of aftermarket parts from David at Kompressor Kanada in Ottawa. Nice guy, great prices and service. He's the one who flashed my car with GIAC FXK03 (I changed the injectors in his driveway while he was programming the ECU!).

Really eh? I did visit their website at a certain point in time, kinda interested in their Bilstein/H&R suspension kit, never went to the actual place though..

Car is from Montreal city, and Mark Motors on Montreal road is where I go IF I absolutely need access to a dealership... It's closer to me than their new location in the West end (Hunt Club)

Thanks for the advice!

David actually works from his home, which really brings down the prices (he shipped the whole Awe-Tuning cat back exhaust to my place in Hearst, Ontario, about 1000km from Ottawa, free shipping!).
As far as Mark Motors is concerned, let's just say I will never, ever, ever go there again.

Does anyone have any recommendations for the best Audi shop in Ottawa?

So far Tapp and Advanced Auto have been recommended, do you all still agree that these are the best place to go? (other than Mark Motors..horrible!)

Thanks!

Anyone have experience with East Motors on Montreal Rd. (2 blocks east of Mark Motors)? They service primarily VW but Audi too.
Would appreciate hearing of anyone's experience there.
