Garage
Shop recommendation - Don Mills/Lawrence area

Anyone have any suggestions for a decent shop in the Don Mills / Lawrence area (or anywhere in the north/east end of the city) for some minor exhaust repair? My wife's car has an exhaust leak, and I'm having a hard time finding any shops I can find info on. A huge bonus would be on that is open Saturdays.

Might be a bit far, but iGarage in Markham is very good and reasonable. Ivan does good work, and he's open on Saturdays (maybe not the full day though)

Not looking near Whitby, looking for close to Don Mills / Lawrence (north york ish). I thought about iGarage, not sure I want to take a bone stock Camry there for basic exhaust repair.

Good to know! I feel bad taking up hoist space at a performance shop for boring work, but if he's used to it I'll feel less bad

I had him mount and install winter tires on my wife's Elantra (I don't have equipment to mount the tire).
And there were other people there for similar stuff as well.

He's a good guy, so I'm sure you'll be fine.
