Great Wheel Alignment in Toronto ($60): Altech Automotive REVIEW
Hey guys, as you know I've been looking to have my alignment done after the dealership messed up.
Al Tech Automotive Limited 384 Olivewood Road, Etobicoke, ON M8Z 2Z9(416) 231-1611 1. Tried an Ottawa shop - they aligned but couldn't centre steering wheel 2. Otto's BMW - Aligned, but couldn't be bothered to centre my wheel 3. I finally decided to try out Altech Automotive, in part due to the e90Post discount of $60, taxes in...which is way cheaper than any other place. Lexus IS club and Mazda forums use him as well. 4. RESULT: The BEST alignment I have ever had done, and the best automotive service...believe me I was shocked How/who: Pat @ Al Tech has experience working on BMWs, madaz, Ferraris, Bentleys, and classic cars for the past 25 years...but a lot of people have this experience. The KEY that puts Pat @ Al Tech above everyone else is two things: he has attention to detail and takes the full amount of time to achieve a proper alignment including wheel centering; the price is $60 taxes in, which cannot be beat; and he is more than willing to try a few times until you are satisfied. This is the FIRST shop across two cities that has been able to centre my stering wheel. what they use Pat has the latest $40 000 of LED-based alignment equipment...which is one generation BETTER than the laser-based system used by dealerships etc. I highly recommend this shop to all E90 post members; AL Tech is one of those small shops that does great work, but doesn't have much press...and lets be honest, the price is impossible to beat. I am still shocked. The quality of the alignment and wheel centering was superb. He will give you a printout..which I have not scanned. I took a picture of my alignment...in this case, showing how bad it was when I brought it in (3/4 wheels were off in camber and/or toe). Last edited by TheRox; 05-08-2010 at 02:52 PM.. |

So let me get this straight? No pun attended.
An 4 wheel alignment costs $60 taxes in?

I'll definitely be making the trip down to see Pat for an alignment. What's the walk in price...price for non-BMW's?
