Super quick turnaround and didn’t try to screw me over with prices as opposed to Canadian Tire and other big spots. Did a really good job on my car. Good stuff

Contacted Owner/Operator (Jason). He went over and above and got one of my fleet trucks back on the road the same day. Very reasonable rate, professional and efficient. Thank you!

Refered to them by a third party after a dealership wanted an exorbitant amount to fix a low air flow situation in the heating system. Not only did Spanner come in at under 1/2 the cost, they explained what the cause was, offered a solution … More made the repair, and now I have good air flow, and a cabin air filter to keep the dust to a minimum in the ducts.
Already told them, I'm coming back next oil change.
I've returned and again received above and beyond exemplary service. -

After being told by the dealership that I needed $7539 in repairs, and a tire place told me $1714, took it here (on a friend's recommendation) and found out it needed nothing right away, and we created a schedule for what is actually … More needed and when. Brilliant service and fair pricing. I will definitely be coming here moving forward.

I recommend this place to anyone who asks. I will never go anywhere else. Having a mechanic you can TRUST to tell you exactly what is going on, and not try to upsell unnecessary repairs; is absolutely priceless. So many other mechanics … More gouge you with high shop rates and ridiculous mark up on parts. 10/10 would reccomend.

Best dammed shop you'll find in the whole greater Edmonton area. ON EVERY LEVEL IN EVERY WAY.
One of the cheapest, if not THE CHEAPEST price for labour rates. Best quality of workmanship, as well as at the skill pf diagnosis and repair. … More
The one down side is this place is super busy so it's hard to get a spot, but If you can get one, take it!! This place is worth the waiting in lime for instead of going anywhere else.
"DO NOT waste your time with looking elsewhere. This is where the partys at!" every single one of these guys is top notch service and care. -

Had my check engine light come on, and when I called Spanner's Jason explained that they wouldn't charge me for scanning it and set an appointment for me. The mechanics working there were relaxed and put my mind at ease. When … More Jason checked it out and found the problem he explained that the cat had an element that needed replacing. When I came to pick up my vehicle and forgot what exactly he said, he was very kind and just re-explained how it worked, then called a specialist to get a quote. Thank you guys for your honesty and super great service! I will definitely be coming back!

He did and checked it all out and I had an issue with my heater he checked thankfully my transmission … More was okay and he fixed the heater. He charged me nothing. He is an excellent mechanic. I highly recommend him. Thanks Jason you are the best!

I had my struts and tires replaced and the service and quality of the tires is awesome. And the price was lower than I expected, The next week after the initial Work was done my car started acting funny in the steering I took it back … More and the first diagnosis was inconclusive but Jason did not just replace parts without being sure of the full problem, he spent time researching and diagnosing the problem and was able to fix the problem for more than 1000 dollars less than what it could have cost because he didn’t jump to conclusions and start replacing parts. He is a brilliant Technician and I will always use his services from now on Thank you Jason and the team at Spanners you are Awesome

Jason has saved me a great deal of time, money, and frustration with my vehicle. He is incredibly honest and willing to go the extra mile. His shop location is quite out of the way considering I live on the south west side of the city, … More but it is definitely worth the drive. He has fixed numerous problems with my vehicle, at a fraction of the cost (I brought him an inspection to cross reference on my first visit). If you are looking for a mechanic you can trust, I highly recommend giving Jason and his team at Spanners Automotive a chance.

Furthermore I asked Jason if he could tackle a big job on my F-350 and while Yes he said he could do it, he encouraged me to go back to Ford and inquire … More about extended warranty coverage. Thanks to Jason this work was all covered under warranty. I will be bring all my vehicles here in the future and am very glad to have found a quality, local mechanic shop I can trust!

I did what everyone else does. Headed to Google and went through reviews.
Saw all the positive comments about this place and decided to come here after what I thought was a burst radiator hose.
They got me in very fast because I was late … More for my new job. Had me in and out in 2 hours. Told me everything that was getting fixed. Very great service.
Jason and his Staff are so polite and honest. the Mechanic was also extremely helpful and explained everything to me. Will return for sure. I’ve already referred a few friends, and they have since told me they had the same type of service so it’s consistently great.
Thanks spanners for being the best car mechanic service in Edmonton. -

Jason is an excellent guy! The last while I’ve had to call him almost every 2nd month with continuous major part issues going on with my 03 Jetta. He’s always honest and straight forward about what’s going on with the car. Even tho I ask … More him just to fix the major issues for right now, he still informs me that their other issues going on aswell that need to be dealt with eventually with “ no pressure” and tells me just to keep an eye on it if I’m not willing for him to fix it right now and bring it back when the time is right for me. Thank you so much Jason for dealing with my Continuous issues and my countless calls seeing when it will be done if I’m in a rush to get it back. 😂 Definitely will be taking my vehicle to you. I appreciate the honesty, fast and speedy repairs! Great prices And amazing work! 👍🏻 Highly recommend Jason 😎

Jason was fantastic to deal with. Honest opinions following a questionable diagnosis from another shop.

I required a replacement clutch, and the dealership where I bought my car brand new 8 years ago offered to replace it for ~$2,100.***Jason did this for me for ~$1,100.[That's $1,000 less.]He was also extremely knowledgeable, courteous, … More fair, and took the time to show and explain exactly was was wrong with my old clutch (bad, rusted clutch bearing which scraped as it rotated, and damage to the clutch and flywheel).***There was another sound coming from my car, a squealing sound, that we thought was coming from the serpentine belt. Jason took a look at this today after work, and after working in and around the serpentine belt (there was no problem there), found the problem to be the after-market Air Intake Hose/Tube Duct, which needed a perforation in one of the smaller intake valves order to release pressure from the engine. He discovered this, as when he removed the engine oil cap while my car was running, it would release air like a balloon, and the squealing sound would go away.Long story short, even though it took him an hour to solve this problem, Jason refused to take payment from me, even though I insisted. He asked instead for a fair review; and you're reading it now.I wish I could give the man 6 stars out of 5.I will go to Jason for all my vehicle needs from now on, and not anywhere else.

I had Jason take a look at our SUV that was making a clunking noise. He quickly noticed that the two tie rods which were connected to the axle had bolts that were worn. He walked us through all of the issues he noticed just so we could … More keep our eyes open for future problems. It didn't take him long to replace them and the clunk was gone. He also noticed that our check engine light was on and gave us the error code that we could take to the dealer as he thought it might still be covered under warranty. Awesome service. Will definitely go back. Hard to find an honest mechanic these days.
