Any recommended shops in Mississauga/Toronto area that don't charge over $250 to do the following:
-auto trans flush fluid, filter replace
-fuel filter replace.
Dealer (Concept Ford, Georgetown,ON) wants over $350
Local auto shop in Mississauga I've been to (Aquitaine Auto) charges $260+tax for these (2) items.
Thanks!

When I needed to do the auto in my Grand Prix I had Mr Lube do it. Don't think it cost me more than $200 to have it done.

i know im a few months late but for that kind of money you are better off learning to do it yourself. and i'm no tech genius but the autotrans fluid changing really isn't that hard, just kinda messy, and extra set of hands is nice to have.
Little bit of show, little bit of go.
