Any good independent shops in Calgary or Airdrie, AB? Sister-in-law is out there and her self leveling suspension went on her '12 Jeep. That is not something you want fixed at a dealer. Looking for a good independent that won't take her to the cleaners.

Thanks.

I've tried to update initial post with more shops, been unable to post after editing.

The initial post might be at the size limit for the forum.

Checking in for western Washington State - Seattle area.

Signature Independent has been a bit disappointing lately. I used them for five years exclusively. They have a great staff and are very knowledgeable, but the past few times through there were lots of small errors or misdiagnosis. I've spent about $2,000 on repairs they claimed I needed but turned out to be other issues entirely.

I've started going to WestWerks and so far am very happy. Friendly, quick, did small extra bits the car needed without charging me and even drop it off at my office when they're done.

In Indianapolis, Autohaus Merkle is a very reputable indy shop - have been servicing German cars at the same location since 1967. They did my valve cover gasket and CCV and did a great job - very professional and their price was better than a few other quotes I got from other German only indy shops.

Just had a great experience in the Richmond, VA area. These guys are BMW Master Techs that left the dealership and started their own shop about three years ago. Wish I'd found them sooner!

Or at a minimum, increase the max size of the initial post, so I can update it with all these added shops.
