I need a Toyota mechanic in Brampton to fix a POS Previa that won't stop breaking down and costing me a sh*tload of money, but can't afford to get rid of it yet. The dealership was a joke, another place fixed something but $600 later (on top of other amounts been spent) the van still isn't running and they don't know blah blah...

Can someone help me get this hell van finally fixed for cheap?:mad: :mad: :mad: Ready to push it off a cliff...

PS if it is the ABS which i understand is expensive to replace, can it just be de-activated, I don't care if it has 4WD.

If the electronics in the ABS fails, it defaults back to a normal braking system and you drive as if there never was ABS but, be sure it is something in the electronics that is giving you the ABS light.
As for a cheap Toyota mechanic, well, there ain't any cheap mechanics. Especially if it is in the ABS system, that stuff costs a ton of money for the parts.

i just need someone that knows Toyota to finally tell me what the problem is & how much so I can decide if it's worth spending more $$. I keep getting these fixes all over the place that cost me lots of cash but still can't drive it.>:(
As it is, I'll need to get the van towed to the shop, so it has to be in Brampton. Cheap meaning cheaper than the dealership! That's been a waste of time & money!

I know of a good mechanic in brampton. He has his own shop called A.M AutoTrust. I have been to him for about 5 years now. Although I drive a civic he specializes in Japanese cars. The phone number is 905 791 0777. Ask for Arun the owner.

I was just about to recommend A. Auto Trust. I've been with Arun since 1991. He's a licenced Honda Tech & he currently services my 2000 civic, 2004 Mazda 3GT Sport & my 2004 Toyota Highlander. Tell him that Sunny referred you!!! Very good with his work. If there is a problem that he can't figure out, he has a lot of mechanic friends at the dealerships who can help out as well!!!!
