— The Lead Story
An honest mechanic, on Racine Road, who still picks up the phone.
Basil and his crew keep cars on the road in this corner of Etobicoke. Customers come for the quote that doesn’t move and the work that lasts; they stay because nobody tries to sell them anything they didn’t come in for.
Inside, there is water, tea, wifi, a TV, and a clean bathroom — the small comforts a working garage doesn’t have to bother with, and Basil bothers anyway. Ninety-one Google reviews. An average of 4.7 stars. One phone number, answered by the people doing the work.

DEPARTMENTS — what the shop does.
The Honest Quote
Transparent with the estimate, never pushy on an upsell. You hear the price before the wrench moves, and the price doesn’t change after.
Maintenance & Service
The dull, necessary work that keeps a car running for another year. The shop to land at once a new-car warranty runs out.
A Comfortable Wait
Water, tea, wifi, a television, and a warm room to sit in — plus a clean bathroom. Small mechanic shops don’t usually go to the trouble. This one does.
THE MAN AT THE COUNTER
— The mechanic
Basil & Team
Ask the regulars and you get a similar answer: a great rapport with the parts counters and dealerships up and down the area, a habit of treating people with respect, and a quote you can take to the bank. The kind of mechanic that turns first-time visitors into customers for life.
“I have been bringing my cars to Basil and team for close to 30 years and i would recommend this shop to anyone looking for a local mechanic.”
DISPATCHES FROM the customers.
★★★★★
BG Auto is one of the most reliable mechanic shops we have ever dealt with. We have been coming to BG auto for years. His prices are fair and he is one of the most honest in the business. We always end up circling back here once our new car warranty’s are up.
★★★★★
Great service and experience. Many small mechanic shops don’t offer waiting rooms or even refreshments.
BG Auto Repair offers water, tea, wifi, TV and a warm comfortable waiting area. Plus a clean bathroom.

★★★★☆
Had issues with my car and was searching and searching for a good mechanic as I never had problems before. I came across BG on a Facebook group and I decided to check Google for more reviews. All were good so i called and was giving a similar estimate that I got from another company.
He’s very transparent with his quote and not very pushing to try to upsell you. I felt comfortable and I’d definitely go back. If you’re looking for a mechanic I’d definitely try this place.
