Trusted TDI Mechanics/Shops in the Vancouver (GVRD) Area

[Ed's TDI]

Hello there,
I have a regular volkswagen Beetle. May I have some good recommended mechanics for regular maintenance and tune ups?
Seems like German Motorcar in Port Moody is closed down.
I do prefer Port moody, Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam.
Thank you!

I'm sure any of the shops listed above will still be able to service your regular (I'm guessing this means non TDI) Beetle. But as you might have figured out from the name of this forum this is primarily about and for TDIs

6 weeks ago I was not a TDI owner yet - now I have two!

Both cars had issues and I needed to find a good mechanic.

Decided to go to JS Performance in Abbotsford.

My first impression is very good - both cars came back with issues fixed. Friendly and competent service for a reasonable cost.

Recommended!

Just got off the phone with them!! really looking forward to having them bless my wagon. No shops in the Bellingham area wanted to do the balance shaft delete and oil pump conversion.

This is a great idea and definitely deserves a sticky. Having a central list of trusted TDI mechanics around the GVRD makes it way easier for owners to find a reputable shop close to home. It's also super helpful for people who are new to the area or just got into TDIs and don’t know where to start.


Glad to see this staying positive and focused—threads like this only work if we keep it clean and just stick to sharing good experiences and recommendations. Looking forward to seeing more suggestions roll in.
