Knibbe is straight up awesome, in Crowfoot. They charged me less than my quote because the guy finished it quicker than expected.

It's just the regular service at 24,000 km to keep my warranty valid. I could do it at the dealer, but that's usually really expensive.

I can also vouch for Certigard in Silver Springs.

Thanks for the responses. I'm taking it in to Certigard Monday because Knibbe is too busy to get it in before I take off for the rest of the month.

Since the OP got his answer - Thread Hijack!

Same quesation, different location. I need to get the timing belt replaced on my '06 Sportage. Dealer is suggesting it'll be $1K+. I'm looking for a resonable place to do the work in the SE/SW. Ideally somewhere in the Chinook/Manchester area, but I'm willing to go a little further afield if anybody has a good recommendation...

I used to take my Golf into Corrado Auto Repair on Oakfield Dr. They seemed pretty upfront and fair. And knew how to fix Volkswagons.

Apollo Muffler on 16th ave and about 7th street NW. Laurie is the owner, and he's awesome.

I know. But I can see how you would think I might not from that post. I was just saying they're good with Volkswagons because a lot of places aren't.
