Default GTA Indy shop (East end)

The extended warranty on my 997.2 has finally come to an end. Looking to the future (being proactive not reactive) I'm looking for an indy shop preferably in the East end of the GTA.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Autoselect in Newmarket if you don't mind going farther north

Haven't heard anything about G Tek for some time. Anyone go there?

I can no longer recommend Keltech.

Heard G Tek charges as much as dealers

Hunter is not too bad of a drive during non rush hour.

MVS if you want to get ripped off.

I'd also recommend Auto Select if going north is acceptable.

Also, I've had good experience generally with Raymond at Raf Auto Clinic: https://www.rafautoclinic.com/about-raymond. Trained at P dealers.

Default Noble Performance

I use Noble Performance in Markham. Wilson is a capable, analytical mechanic who can work on all sorts of cars and takes good care of my 991. More than willing to read through forum posts I send him to learn about obscure problems too which is always nice for both my BMW’s and my 911. His prices are very competitive; he has saved me a lot of money over the years.

Wow, all your recommendations in Markham appear to be within walking distance of one another. MVS is very close to my office (this would be extremely convenient for me) however the comment about being ripped off is a turn off to me for sure.

Thank you for all your recommendations thus far.

EuroTek Auto in Brooklin. $110 per hour and honesty helps.

No matter where you take your car, dealer or Indy. Always have a clear written estimate agreed upon before work commences. That way no one is upset.
there will always be whileyouratit items that you run into, and those need to be agreed too as well.
Timing belt service? All rollers and water pump, coolant flush.
It also helps if they answer the phone 📞, one chat can remove 7 emails back and forth….

Thanks but to far away. The wife would kill me if I told her where she had to pick me and take me back to for that service.
