I waited a year to see if there would be problems with a timing belt kit install on a Sequoia. There are none and the Truck runs great, that s why I gave 5 Stars. I would go back.

Excellent service. They’re very professional and would always recommend them, the diagnosis was accurate and fast. It was a transmission failure therefore I needed a replacement, which they delivered at a timely manner, despite the amount of work involved. Great work and quality.

A+++. I would highly recommend getting your vehicle serviced at Dale’s. Jameson and his team run an honest shop with fair prices, and the tech’s will treat your car as if it was their own. I’ve taken numerous vehicles to Dale’s over the years and have never had a poor experience.

Yesterday morning as I prepared to leave my home, my car sputtered to start. I drove to Dale's and thankfully my car could get booked in to check the source of the problem. Within 15 minutes, I was called to advise me that I needed a new battery. Within two hours my car was ready for pickup. I have been a customer for many years and I have always received friendly, informed and timely service.

I had such a positive experience with Dil and the entire team at Dale’s Auto Service. From the moment I walked in, everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional. They took the time to listen to my concerns, answer all of my questions, and explain everything in a way that was easy to understand without ever making me feel rushed or uncomfortable. As a woman, going into a mechanical or automotive repair facility can sometimes feel intimidating, especially if you don’t have a lot of mechanical knowledge. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to know whether you are being given all of the information or being treated fairly. My experience at Dale’s Auto Service was completely different. I genuinely felt respected, comfortable, and included throughout the entire process. Dil was especially helpful and made the whole experience incredibly easy. He was patient with all of my questions and made sure I understood what was happening with my vehicle, what was recommended, and why. There was never any pressure, confusing terminology, or feeling like I was being talked down to. Everything was explained professionally and clearly, which gave me a lot of confidence in the work being done. Dale’s Auto Service really does feel like a women-friendly automotive facility. The staff creates an environment where you can comfortably ask questions and actually receive thoughtful, honest answers. They make something that can normally be stressful feel straightforward and manageable. I also really appreciated how organized and professional the entire shop was. The communication was excellent, the customer service was friendly, and I felt like my vehicle was being taken care of by people who genuinely care about doing the job properly.

Transmission Service FAQ

1. How often should I service my transmission?

Most vehicles require transmission fluid service every 50,000–90,000 km, depending on driving conditions and manufacturer specifications. CVTs often require more frequent service.

2. Can low or dirty transmission fluid cause damage?

Yes. Old or low fluid causes overheating, slipping, shuttering, and premature wear. Regular maintenance is critical to prevent expensive repairs.

3. Do you service all makes and models in Maple Ridge?

Absolutely. We work on all domestic, import, and European vehicles, including automatic, manual, CVT, and dual-clutch transmissions.

4. What are the signs of a failing transmission?

Slipping gears, delayed engagement, grinding, leaks, high RPM shifting, or warning lights. Early diagnostics can prevent major repair costs.

5. Is a flush or drain-and-fill better?

It depends on the vehicle. We follow OEM-specific procedures to avoid damage and ensure longevity.

How often should I have a transmission fluid and filter service?

The good news is you don’t have to change transmission fluid as often as motor oil.

It’s generally recommended you get your transmission fluid exchanged every 40,000 to 60,000 kms or every two-to-three years – whichever comes first.

What is a manual transmission service?

Whether you have front- or rear-wheel drive, transmissions are required to transmit the necessary power and torque from your engine to your vehicle’s drive wheels.

Transmissions allow an engine to operate at a few speeds or gears, while your vehicle can travel at a large range of speeds.
