Tony’s Academy Auto Service has been decent for our family. It feels more like a real repair shop than a quick-lube place, so I usually go there when I want someone to actually look at the car.
Tired of getting upsold every time I get an oil change. Where do you take your vehicle in Winnipeg?
I don’t mind being told if something is actually unsafe, but I’m tired of every oil change turning into a list of expensive extras.
Replies suggest Winnipeg options such as Tony’s Academy Auto Service and Super Lube, with advice to ask for the inspection notes and avoid approving add-ons immediately.
Answers & Discussion
My advice is to ask for the recommendations on paper and then decide later. Any shop worth using should be okay with you not approving every extra service on the spot.
Super Lube is convenient if you just need a quick oil change. I usually say up front that I only want the oil change today unless something is clearly unsafe. That helps set expectations.
