Brought my car into Raj after being recommended him by another mechanic I know. I was smelling smoke in my car and Raj said it was probably the flex joint when I dropped it in. Apart from the smell the car was driving perfectly. He quoted me 400-500 to fix it and said I would have the car back in a day. The next day I called Raj to ask for a pick up time. He said he was really busy and my car was still sitting in the yard but he would have it done by EOD. I called him later that day, he said the car was still sitting in the yard and he wouldnt get to it until the next day. At this point I was annoyed but he said it would be done by noon the next day so I said OK. The next day before noon I rang to make sure the car was ready. Again Raj said he was busy and hadnt gotten to it. I needed the car so was very frustrated. He said it would be done by 5pm. He called me at 4:50pm saying the car was ready and to come out. When I got to the shop it appeared my car was still being worked on. Raj had pulled out the filters of my car and the sparkplugs. He said it all needed to be repaired and I needed an oil change. I was shocked as I hadnt given him permission to pull anything from my car. He said he would have to replace the sparkplugs and do an oil change. Also the original work was now more expensive than he thought and overall the work would be 1200 dollars. So 800 more than originally quoted and 2 days late. It took him 2 more hours to finish the work and then I finally got the car back. I am a first time car owner and I am sure Raj was just trying to take advantage of me. I have no experience with mechanics but I know this is not normal even in general customer service. It was all a show he was saying how bad my filters were, how the spark plugs needed replacing and oil was leaking into them. I will attached photos so everyone can see how ridiculous his claims were. Would not recommend ever and would really advise everyone to avoid this place at all costs. read more

Quiet Muffler & Brake - Supposed oil leak - Auto Repair Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

See all

Wanted to get exhaust tips installed on my NX. Went to one place and they did the worst job ever. I mean, I coulda done better with one hand, blind folded and some duct tape, so with google and Yelp's reviews I found Quiet Muffler & Brake. These guys deserve all the accolades! They took the time to come up with the best way to mount the tips, explained what they'll do and did a 100% professional job. Very happy and I would recommend them any time! read more

Called a few shops to get a price range for cutting off the factory muffler flange which rusted off and made a terrible rattle as the pipe tapped from the resonator (car side) of this broken weld joint and they offered a low high price range. Their high was the starting price from the other shops. Since I was visiting from San Diego and getting my son in law's car fixed to reduce his stress as a new father I assumed that they would push for the higher price once it was on the rack but was pleasantly surprised to get the lower price with warranty. The job was done in a few minutes while I waited while leaving the shop I noticed the low tire pressure sensor light was on and returned to the shop to request they loan me a guage to check the pressure myself but they did it for me no charge. Nice to find a shop on short notice to get work done on the spot at a fair price. read more

I've always had friends work on my car, so I was hesitant to take my car to a shop. Being new to Canada and Vancouver, I didn't have a choice. Despite my trepidation, these guys were straightforward, fast, and honest. They called me and confirmed that my car needed new brakes, rotors, and two new shoes. They adjusted my back brakes as well and gave me a detailed description of where the most wear was, and why. I wholeheartedly appreciate that they didn't talk to me like an idiot. They gave detailed descriptions and didn't seem to assume that because I'm a woman I know nothing about cars. When I showed up to pick up my car we talked again about the condition of my Honda and how I can prevent the front brakes from getting so worn down. I also had them change my oil and they let me know that they will touch up my oil for free in between changes, which is handy since I have a small leak. I walked through the shop to get my car and the mechanic asked me if I wanted to look at my old parts. This was awesome!! Sitting there were my nonexistent pads, my bumpy rotors and worn shoes. It made me feel really secure that they were willing to show me the condition of my old parts brakes instead of just "telling" me that they needed to go. Super nice, honest, informative folks and fair pricing. A++++++ I will continue to take my car here as long as I live in the lower mainland!!! read more

Fast, friendly service. They took care of a muffler rattle in minutes and were completely friendly and welcoming. It's nice taking your car into a place where you feel well treated. They do brakes, mufflers, tires, exhaust. They can custom build pipes so would be cheaper than most brake and muffler chains. They also have fancier exhaust systems and will weld them on instead of screwing them on. I'm actually looking for reasons to bring my car back there. read more

Had my fourth bolt on muffler installed, and like usual, Dell and his team had it done in minutes of my arrival!! These guys are the best in town!! read more

First time car owner came here for oil change and front brakes pads replacement. Honest people and the pricing was reasonable. Even if I live in Vancouver Downtown I'll have these guys take care of my car from now on. It's a first come first serve place. Get there early in the morning if you want to be the first in line. read more

I called to get a quote for insurance purposes. All I got was hello. No good morning, no Quiet muffler and Brake. Told the person on the other end of the call my situation of being robbed of my catalytic converters on my motorhome. Was brushed off like he was in a rush. Didn't have any concerns, only gave me a ballpark figure over the phone. When I was about to ask if I could bring down pictures of the damage with dimensions. Found that I had been cut off and call had ended. Very unprofessional. I worked in a automotive shop for 3 years and never have I ever answered the phone or brushed anyone off the way I was treated. My husband and I just moved here from Alberta for his work. Got robbed at 0400, my husband pepper sprayed and now I get treated like I don't have a clue as to what I'm looking for. Thanks buddy- whoever you were. read more

Quick service and honest guys. I brought my car in for a free quote, and they put it on the lift asap and spent a good chunk of time showing me underneath in what was going on with it. It's first come first serve, but Raj is great for giving you a little approximate window when you can swing by if you give him a call. He was generous with the warranty for my cat converter replacement, and really accommodating. Thanks for the ride home Raj! read more

Straight forward. Reasonable price.

Have been a costumer for quite a few years..The Mazda needed a muffler and a pipe going over the lower control arm..they took care of it pretty quick about an hour..good quality work at a fair price..mind you I opted for the magnaflow muffler and stainless tip..sounds really good..thanks again for the good job!!!!! read more

Nice bunch of guys. Took my car in for a minor problem they fixed in 5 minutes. I owe them a 6 pack for their time! Would give them 6 stars if I could. read more

These guys were kind enough to look at my car and give me an estimate for repairs, no charge. My car is making a grinding noise when braking so it definitely needs brakes. Their estimate was fair and the customer service is great, but I'm going to have to save some money to do this repair. Thank-you for looking at the car and telling me what it needs. read more

I had recently moved to Burnaby, and was wary about service for my car, ( which I had not done, in far too long) The breaks were squishy, I knew that my fluids were not maintained, either. I was very pleasantly surprised and at ease , with Quiet muffler,The staff and owner were very helpful in explaining what needed attention, I had not made appointment , but he was able to take my car in right away. Many things were fixed that day, and myself, and my car came out smiling. We will exclusively use Quiet muffler, No Need To go anywhere else, again. Free top off of fluids anytime , and the great service that , makes the experince, even better ! I lucked out. :) read more

Had my rear brake pads changed at this place. Very professional approach, honest people, no overcharging. It's been over a month and the new brake pads continue working perfectly. I strongly recommend this place! read more

The guys working there are the salt of the earth. One of those blue-collar muffler shops that doesn't mess around and doesn't charge an arm and a leg when the job only takes 10 minutes. They overcharged a bit for the piece of pipe they put in ($10/foot? Not convinced.), but the overall cost was about as good as you're going to get. If you're an at-home mechanic and you've hit the dreaded moment when you know what needs to be done but just don't have the tools to do the job, this is the place you're looking for. read more

I went to the other muffler shop in kingsway and had a bad experience, really bad drone, weld is messy, and the weld has holes. These guys at quiet muffler helped me out. They knew I spent so much money already from the other shop, so they gave me a discount. I research online and found out about the "branch resonator". They were helpful and did what I wanted. Now I got no drone and very happy with the sound of my exhaust. read more

Excellent shop! The owner is incredibly knowledgeable and understanding. He took my concerns seriously and explained every detail to me. I would highly recommend this shop to all my friends and family. This shop won't let you down. read more

They fixed my muffler problem in 15 minutes. Another place quoted me $930. They did it for 50. My my exhaust system was bent because I backed into a rock. They heated up the pipe and bent it back again. Six months later the noise is still gone , no more vibrations. Everything is fine! read more

These guys are great, they got me in early and only fixed what was required. I when tout of my way because of the reviews and glad I did it

Super cool guys at the shop. Got an oil change and tire rotation and they were efficient. Dropped off the car at noon and went for lunch in the area. I got a call an hour later when it was done. Highly recommend them tho it is first come first serve as they don't take appointments. No upsells like some shops as they take care of what u want. read more
