Just got my S2K, don't know which dealership to service my car.

Wondering what your experience is with the following:

Kingsway Honda
Vancouver Honda
Carter Honda
Pacific Honda (N. Van)

Suggestions on good mechanics for oil change also welcome.

I have used Pacific Honda in North Van for a transmission issue.
They fixed 2nd gear pop out on deceleration. Replaced syncro's on 2nd 3rd and 4th under a honda TSB.
The car shifts great now. No second gear grind which is common when cold.
The service manager was very helpful.....and they fixed it the first time.

Congrads on your purchase... Platinum White looks great!

Kingsway Honda supported the Poker Run event...,

Carter Honda has been very helpful w/ me. They even cleaned my nozzles that were somewhat clogged, lol. It's just something no other dealer seemed to notice. lol

I used Carter Honda to inspect my S before I bought it and they seemed great to deal with. Let me speak with the mechanic no problem and look under the car while it was up on the hoist.

This is going to sound really silly, but if the car doesn't already have paint scrapes underneath its front bumper cover, and you want to keep it that way, I'd recommend putting painter's tape underneath there for protection when you go to a dealership shop. When I got my Pearl White back from a service, its front had been massively scraped up by some lot boy hitting a curb. Dealership denied it, but the car's underside had been mint until then.

Good advice pearl_s2k, which dealership did you use?

That is a good idea, also when you drop the car off I would do a walk around with them like you do with rental cars.

i'd never service my car to a dealership, go to AJ or evogarage, you'll be able to see your car being serviced and be able to get to know the mechanic at the same time.
