Sorry 'bout that 25orsix24,E-town is ok.Hope that the rest of your experiences here are positive ones!
As for reliable shops,I've always dealt with westside auto.The family is great,fair and they've been workin on vw's/audis for ever.Theyre behind the MacDonalds on stoney plain road and about 168 street.Ive never had an issue and 1 time after a misdiagnosed CEL(replaced MASair,ignition packs)we found that the real prob was a broken vac line!They took out the mas,and coils and refunded my money!The vac line was replaced no charge.

Howndog,
Thanks for the sympathy!
Ma' Babby she is in Pickering (Ontario, a suburb of Toronto) getting damage fixed, lifted and a 3M invisible bra installed... she'll be too pretty when I get her back here in 'mid October!

I tried Autobahn Performance so far: an OK experience! Maciek, the guy I met ther, is nice to deal with... prices are OK: not fabulous, though!

I also dealt with Southgate Audi: other than a waiting list to estimate and months before they can do the work, they are decent in ordering and speed of delivery of parts.

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
 

Can't speak to any of the shops identified so far, but I would only trust mine to August at Continental Auto. Southside, 97 St and 60 Ave.

He only services VW and Audi, very particular.

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
 

I like west Side auto, they are great, so is autobauhn is wicked too and I work at southgate Audi and they are good here too tech wise and what not but they can be a bit pricey.

Oh and Eurasia is a great place too, when we get busy here at work we send some over flow there.

Hope this helps. Any meets here in edmotnon or what?

what a bunch of ass's. I used to live over in that area and it was great. Just bad luck buddy. And Give us a break here at Southgate, we have a lot full of cars that have smashed windows and they take alot of time to get all fixed. lol

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
 

LOL! So you are the one driving that thing around... mine still has Ontario plates on... another upleasant thing when it comes to Edmonton drivers and their aversion for Ontario!

Thanks to all for the sympathy re: "Ma' Baby's" damage!

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
 

I took my S4 to Autobahn for maintenance repairs and they ended up leaving the manifold bolts less than finger tight, forgot to install my airfilter as requested and one thing led to another. My bill ended up being twice the price that I was originally quoted... They were great to deal with, don't get me wrong, however spending this amount of money in 2 days, I would assume that they would have done things 100%. I'll be searching somewhere else for regular maintenance.

Re: EDMONTON:where is the action?
 

I am sorry to hear about your bad experience at Autobahn... I bought parts from them in the past... a few days ago I asked them for A/C work: in order to save me money Mark gave me the name of the man who does the work out of the back of his van. I had the work EXPERTLY/SUPERLATIVELY done!!!

While your story disapoints, there is sometimes a case when someone will allways screw-up with one customer... like a bad curse... they had a number of good "reviews": maybe if you approach Mark again?!
