Where to go for service in/near Toronto?
My baby's an '05 xB with 20,000 miles, so there's still warranty there to consider. First instinct would be to just go to a dealership, but I know they can be good or bad like any other shop.
I live in Guelph, work in North Toronto (Sheppard/DVP), so I'm actually looking for recommendations in both areas. Routine maintenance, as well as a shop that can help me out with aftermarket installations.
Any Scion owners from the GTA out to Guelph or even Kitchener-Waterloo area have a shop they like and trust? What about ones to avoid, any horror stories out there? Thanks for your help!

Some Canadian posters have said that Canadian Toyota Dealers will not work on Scions under warranty. You might want to check it out. Might need to go across the border.....

Thanks OldYeller, definitely something to be wary of.
I know the one Toyota dealership in Guelph (on Woodlawn Road) told me that they are able to support my warranty, however before doing any work they need to confirm service records with Toyota in the US. Not sure about other dealerships though, anyone looking to buy/import a Scion might want to check that out first.

Mine only has 6000 miles (but go by the Canadian recommended service intervals not the one in the Scion manual ie. every 5000 miles) and have only brought it to the dealership I bought it at (Richmond Hill Toyota) they said they will honor the full warranty and even gave me my first service free (scion manual states you get 3 free oil changes) they said they'd give me the first one free and a discount on the other 2.
I trust them only because I know a couple of the sales people there personally. Other than that I'm not sure where I would take it
