ABI Motors

Abi Motors
1365 Mid-way Blvd
Unit 37
Mississauga ON
L5T 2J5
647-261-4046 (Abi)

I think I might have found a new mechanic, has anyone heard of Abi Motors?

I went to fix my compression rod, he quoted me $280 installed...The kijjii guy was selling the part for $250 alone.

All the cars at his shop were Infiniti gave me some reassurance as I couldn't find any info/feedback about him on g35driver.

Ended up not being my compression rod or anything else said it could be my coilovers (strut leaking) making the "klunking" noise

Check him out his rates are good and he's in the GTA!!! (for the WEST SIDEEEE people)

Tell him Jindy with the LOW gcoupe referred you.

I will also let you guys know his rate for door lock actuator (OEM) installed...problems after problems

I thought you said this guy had good rates. He wants to charge me $300 for a suspension swap out? Shops usually charge $200, $50 a corner.

I agree, $50/crnr is the norm., unless it also includes alignment.

I guess u can try $200-250 if thats what other shop rates are, i'm pretty sure he'll budge

he charged me $40 to swap my broken strut, but that's cuz i had a bunch of other stuff done.

Thats no reason to give me a cost of a $300, then I said that's way too much, not including alignment, which he doesn't do. Then he said if the struts and springs are together he will do it for $200. I can get all of them done for $140, but I was just going to go to Abi because he was near my work, but its not worth it.

This guy is close to my work so I will keep him in mind for any repair work that I can't do myself. I'll be looking to do the full tranny, differential fluid change next year and probably a rad fluid change as well. I'm sure he will be cheaper than the dealer anyhow.

Thumbs up for Abi. He installed my set of coilovers and a rear camber kit for $140, also made sure both front coils and rears were the same height. Great guy, AND he said he can get OEM Infiniti parts at cost.
Look him up if you're in the Mississauga/Brampton area.
