    Just moved here to Edmonton from Kitchener. Need to get a vehicle inspection done in order to get my new plates (sorry, plate... ) Can anyone in the area recommend a good shop to go to? I don't want to deal with douche-bag trying to rip me off.

    I posted this in another thread kind of similar to yours.

    "Dealerwise, I had a good experience at Kingsway Toyota. Beyond that, I would recommend heading up to the Napa/Auto Pro in Namao. 97th St north just outside of the city. Most of the guys there are ex military mechanics, so they're not *ALL* out to make profit, and they will actually do the work right."

    I wish my first post wasn't of this nature, but....

    My water pump went on me last night so my plan is to buy an OEM kit and do everything at once. Is there anyone in Edmonton who would have some advice where to buy an OEM kit, or recommend a mechanic in the area? Thanks.
