Belts and hoses wear out over time due to engine stress and should be inspected regularly—especially during coolant changes or cooling system repairs—to keep your vehicle running smoothly.

Brakes are your vehicle’s top safety feature and need expert care. Regular inspections and repairs by skilled technicians keep your brakes reliable and safe on the road.

Your vehicle’s charging system—made up of the battery, starter, and alternator—works together to start your engine and keep all electrical components powered, so regular checks help prevent unexpected breakdowns.

Computer diagnostics connect to your vehicle’s onboard system to quickly identify issues and guide accurate repairs.

A cooling system flush replaces old coolant and checks for leaks to help prevent overheating. It keeps key parts like the radiator, hoses, thermostat, and water pump working properly.



We are equipped to service many aspects of Electric and Hybrid vehicles. Contact us to find if we can handle your vehicle’s needs.

Fuel system cleaning removes carbon buildup from fuel injectors and engine components, improving performance, fuel efficiency, and reducing emissions.

We are proud to be your approved government vehicle inspection facility. We have licensed technicians and expertise to perform pre-purchase, out of province and government CVI, inspections to provide you with a full report on the condition of the vehicle.

The heating, venting and air conditioning of a vehicle is key for the comfort, air quality and a vehicle’s overall lifespan. From air filters to condensers, we can maintain and repair your vehicle’s HVAC system.

Your car’s exhaust system reduces noise and harmful emissions, keeping you safe and protecting air quality. Proper maintenance and repair ensure better performance and safety for everyone.

From routine oil changes to complex repairs, done quickly and professionally so you can hit the road with confidence.

Shocks and struts help control your vehicle’s movement and keep tires on the road for a smooth, safe ride. If you notice bouncing, swaying, or uneven tire wear, it’s time to have them checked.

Timing belts synchronize key engine parts, while serpentine belts power engine accessories; both need attention to avoid damage from wear like cracking or slipping.



Tire balancing ensures your tires and wheels spin smoothly by evenly distributing weight. This helps prevent vibrations, uneven wear, and improves overall ride comfort and tire life.

We offer tire and wheel sales plus full services like balancing, flat repair, installation, and rotation, with a wide selection of quality brands for all driving conditions.

Transmission fluid service keeps your transmission running smoothly, prevents damage, and extends its lifespan by removing old, dirty fluid and replacing it with clean fluid.

This is by far the friendliest place I have been. When I called them to have my car looked at, I was expecting to make an appointment. To my surprise, the person on the phone said 'just come on over, and I will have a look'. So I brought in my car, explained the situation - I had exhaust heat shield rattling noise issue - he (Dom was his name, I believe) quickly took a look at the undercarriage and spotted the area where the noise was coming from. It did not even take him 20min to remove the heat shield and I was out of there in less than 30min, with no more rattling noise! I really appreciated his help as I noticed that he offered me to help although it was busy in the shop at the moment. Next time I have any issue with my car, this is the place to bring it in. I highly recommend this place to anyone. These are honest guys putting hard work at the shop. They definitely know what they are doing. Two thumbs up!
Fare prices and fast service. Staff was very easy to deal with and very friendly
Sam and Dom did a complete new exhaust on my F150. Feels like a new truck, and sounds great. Thanks guys!
Thank you to Sam and his crew for all your hard work getting to the root of our problem with our vehicle very Happy with the service you gave us.
I was given a quote from another mechanic and wanted a second quote. After taking my car to Budget, they offered me the most competitive price and included more work than my other quotes. The owner was really professional and offered me a loaner car. I would recommend talking to the owner about your vehicle.
Great place to deal with! Highly recommend coming here for any exhaust or auto repair work.
Wow Budget Brake and Muffler were amazing! They helped me with my air conditioning. It died fully, they were fast to fix it. And WOW, I have never had such amazing air conditioning in my life. Instant cold blast. I feel like Mr Freeze has come and winterized my pipes. 10 / 10 recommend their services.
I am very grateful to Dom and the team at Budget Brake & Muffler for the fantastic work they did on my vehicle. My battery light and check engine light came on on my drive out to Langley for work. Upon inspection I found out that my serpentine belt had blown on the drive over from downtown Vancouver. I went to 3 other auto shops nearby, but all of them were swamped with work so they couldn't fit me in. I was in a bind and couldn't risk driving my vehicle much further. Thankfully Dom was courteous and able to fit me in. The team and service was professional, reliable, quick, efficient and all done at a fair price. I highly recommend seeing them for all your auto maintenance needs.
Great team who do awesome work with honesty and integrity. Would be happy to recommend them to any of my friends and family.
Always so friendly! I’ve gotten my tires repaired here a number of times, and they always fix them so fast and professionally! I’m not afraid they will overcharge me for pointless services, as many other places may! Can definitely recommend.
