We're not just wrenches and diagnostic tools - we're a bunch of European car enthusiasts who turned a passion into something real.
It wasn't always this polished, trust me. Started small, made mistakes, learned a ton, and here we are.
Started in a cramped garage bay with just me and a buddy who knew his way around a BMW better than anyone I'd met. We had more ambition than square footage, that's for sure.
Moved to Marine Drive and doubled our bay space. By then, word got around that we actually knew what we were doing with European vehicles - Audis, Mercs, Porsches, the whole lineup. Got our first proper diagnostic equipment too.
Brought on three more techs who actually gave a damn about doing things right. Not just parts-swappers - real diagnosticians who could trace an electrical gremlin through a wiring harness without losing their minds.
Started getting requests for ECU tuning and performance mods. Invested in the right software and training because half-assing a tune is how you turn a customer's pride and joy into an expensive paperweight.
We're pretty much the go-to spot in North Van for European vehicles. Still learning something new every week though - these modern cars don't make it easy on us, but that's what keeps it interesting.
Meet the folks who'll actually be working on your car. No corporate fluff here - just real people who know their stuff.
Lead Diagnostic Technician
Been with us since 2014. If there's a weird electrical issue making your dash light up like Christmas, Marcus is your guy. ASE Master Certified, Bosch certified for European diagnostics.
Performance Tuning Specialist
Joined us in 2019 after working at a racing shop in Germany for 3 years. She handles all our ECU tuning and knows more about forced induction than anyone I've met. Don't let the smile fool you - she's ruthless about testing.
Transmission & Drivetrain Specialist
Rob's been rebuilding transmissions longer than some of our customers have been driving. Started as an apprentice back in 2008, now he's the guy other shops call when they're stumped. ZF and Getrag certified.
Junior Technician
Fresh out of tech school but sharp as hell. Alex handles a lot of our preventive maintenance work and is learning diagnostic work under Marcus. Already knows more about modern CAN bus systems than I ever will.
Not gonna lie, these mean something to us. Shows we're keeping up with the constantly changing tech in these vehicles.

Look, there's easier ways to make a living than crawling under cars all day. But when you actually fix something that three other shops couldn't figure out, or when a customer picks up their car after a tune and you see that grin - that's the stuff that keeps us showing up.
European vehicles are complex. They're finicky, sometimes frustrating, and the parts ain't cheap. But they're also brilliantly engineered when you understand what the designers were thinking. That's what we try to do here - actually understand the system, not just throw parts at problems.
We're not the cheapest shop around, and we're fine with that. Quality diagnostic work takes time, and proper parts cost money. But we'll always shoot straight with you about what needs doing now versus what can wait.
