Had jerking problems when accelerating, called in to book an appointment and asked if they had to take a guess what the problem was, the guy was kind enough to guess “it’s probably a miss fire” which he was correct. Unfortunately i ended not booking an appointment cause their booked up, everyone wants to see an honest mechanic.

John replaced my battery and did an oil change as booked but flagged an engine light issue that he believed was part of an extended warranty. My previous garage had told me the engine light meant nothing but it was a major extended warranty issue which the dealer dealt with. My car's eligibility for that major work would have expired at the end of this year. John saved me thousands of dollars. I will use S&M Auto Service always! Thank you John!

I’ve been using S&M auto for decades now. John is professional and has tons of integrity. I’ve referred him often and everyone is grateful I did.

I have been with S&M Auto Service for some years now. I am giving a 5 star rating for the simple reason being I am very satisfied with the work that my mechanic, John does on my vehicle. They are always friendly and down to earth - An East Van local shop that has a community feel about it I 💯 recommend S&M Auto shop to my friends for being fair, honest and trustworthy. Thanks S&M Auto!

I had a great experience with this company last week. I had my oil changed and repaired a leaky drain plug. They also tightened up some loose bolts on my suspension and did not charge me extra. The bill was quite reasonable with no suprises. I will definitely be coming back here.
