Default EDMONTON:where is the action?

I am relocating to Edmonton with my "baby" and both her and I feel like a fish out of water!

She in particular needs a good mechanic to look after her and I promised her that I will never take her to a "stealership" when she needs attention!

How about parts? Any car parts store who carries inventory for AUDI parts?

I have a VAG/COM complete set-up with Bentley for B6 and I am self suffcient to a point...

Any contacts will be appreciated!

If and when your "baby" requires attention, I recommend taking her to Karmac. They're in the west-end of the city. I've been taking my 2003 A4 to them for the past year and they've been good to me. I haven't come across a place that sells parts, other than Southgate Audi. There is also another place called Westside which isn't too far away from Karmac. They're on 10010 - 168 Street. I think they sell parts, but mainly for VW. But definitely check out Karmac.

What kind of work did you have done to your Audi? How are their prices?

got a rear wheel bearing replaced, checked out the clunking in front end (control arms), cleaned throttle body and gave it a once over (first time taking it to a mechanic since i bought it at the start of the year)

just the wheel bearing and labour alone was about $200 cheaper than through audi

I've heard that Autobahn is quite good as well. I'm hoping to get mine chipped there in the near future.

I recommend Autobahn Performance very highly, been taking my VW there for over two years and now I just purchased an A4 from the dealer and they said it was all good, within two minuites of Mark at Autobahn driving it he said the gearbox was shot, so he basically aided me in getting a brand new box through the dealer. He treats all his customer cars as if they were is own, and he loves his VW and Audi's
