Semi Synthetic Oil Change Explained: Waterloo’s Top Choice

I get all of my vehicles done over here as they are fast, efficient without compromising on quality of service. Also I can trust them with all of my units. And don't need to follow up with them constantly.

The best place to get your car looked at without worrying about getting fleeced. Shubha is very knowledgeable and patient and does not treat you badly. They also have a sitting area which is very comfortable and welcoming with free water for you while you wait. Also the best part the cleanest washroom in a auto shop that I've every been to.

Tony’s customer service was exceptional, he was very friendly and kind! I brought my car in close to closing time for a small fix after the flooding that occurred in the region and wasn’t expecting to have the repair seen to do quickly. The team was fast and generous. I’ll be back for future repairs for sure!

We had our tyre repaired at TQ Auto Care after a nail/flat tyre. Great customer service and communication. Honest and fair prices. Highly recommend them.

This was my first visit to TQ for an A/C Inspection. Shubha was friendly, efficient and advised the process and costs of the initial inspection and possible recharge. He also told me it was a busy day and my car might not be finished until the am, giving me the option to come back another day. It was finished before COB and service was excellent. Shubha also told me to come back in 7 days so they could retest for any leaks and top up coolant if necessary, 2nd visit complimentary to complete initial service because fluid was too low to fully test. We will be back with both our vehicles. Inspection alone was 1/3 the cost vs dealership.

I'm a new customer for TQ and it's been a pleasure working with them from my first outreach to the repair. I was able to bring the car in next day and by 9.15 they had identified and fixed the issue and the price was way more than fair. Can't recommend highly enough - new loyal customer!

Had a great experience at TQ Auto Care! I found them through Google reviews — over 900 reviews with a 4.7 rating, which says a lot. Consistently earning that kind of trust from so many customers isn't easy, and now I understand why.
The service was quick and efficient — in and out with no long wait. The shop itself is clean and open spaced which gave me a lot of confidence. The staff were super friendly and took the time to explain exactly what was going on with my car, which I really appreciated. On top of that, the pricing was very reasonable. Highly recommend TQ Auto Care to anyone looking for honest, quality service.

TQ Kitchener’s service is excellent! This was my first time having my car serviced here, and both Lovepreet and Shubha were incredibly friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. The entire process was highly efficient. Fantastic team! Highly recommended.

Great experience! Quickly diagnosed the problem and offered the whole process free of charge due to the easy fix. Appreciate the consideration. Shubha Kar was very helpful and easy to communicate with.

We are repeat customers and when asked where to go for auto service we definitely recommend Total Quartz to everyone. Super friendly staff, very knowledgable and helpful.

Dropped by right at open; the lads promptly got the car up on the hoist, reaffirmed what the issue was, sorted it and sent me on my way within an hour. They were polite and efficient.

Amazing experience! The team was knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient. They took great care of my vehicle and provided outstanding customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back for my future oil changes.

Amazing customer service and actual mechanical services. Came in about a month ago with a starter issue, fixed no problem and very reasonable pricing. Ended up hitting a raccoon a couple of weeks later and it had knocked my exhaust heat shield off. Brought it in for a quick fix and left with them fixing it on the house. Seems like a one of a kind honest shop. Highly recommend.

I worked with Sabah at the front desk and he was very helpful and nice. I am very picky with where I get oil changes and they had a great price with a $25 off promo. For my 2016 hknda crv it ended up being under $100 for full synthetic oil and filter. Service was also very quick (15-20 minutes). No rip offs or scams here. Great shop!

I had a great experience with this auto repair shop and wanted to share my feedback. My car unexpectedly broke down on the road and had to be towed in. Being stranded with a vehicle issue is never a pleasant experience, but the team here made the entire process much less stressful from the moment my car arrived.

What impressed me first was that they were able to take my vehicle in the very same day. The front desk staff was friendly, professional, and extremely helpful. They took the time to explain their diagnostic process step by step, making sure I understood what would happen before any work was performed. There was no pressure, no confusion, and no hidden surprises.

They started with a one-hour diagnostic inspection and told me they would have answers once the testing was completed. True to their word, they quickly identified the problem and explained everything clearly. They found that both my battery and alternator had failed and showed me exactly what was wrong. I appreciated their honesty and transparency throughout the process.

Once the issue was diagnosed, they provided a very fair and competitive quote for the repairs. In today’s world, finding an honest mechanic can be difficult, but this shop earned my trust. The repairs were completed promptly, and my vehicle has been running perfectly ever since.

What stands out most about this shop is their professionalism, communication, and integrity. Everyone I dealt with was respectful, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in helping rather than simply selling repairs. They kept me informed throughout the process and made sure I was comfortable with every step.

I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy automotive service. Whether it’s diagnostics, electrical issues, maintenance, or major repairs, you can feel confident bringing your vehicle here. I will definitely be recommending them to my family, friends, and coworkers. This shop has earned my business, and it will be my go-to place for all future vehicle repairs and maintenance.

Thank you to the entire team for the excellent service, fair pricing, and honest work. It’s refreshing to find a repair shop that truly puts customers first.

I recently brought my vehicle in for the 90,000 km major maintenance service and had all-around brake replacement along with a new set of Michelin tires installed. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent throughout the entire process.

They clearly explained the work that needed to be done, provided fair pricing, and completed everything on time. My car now drives smoothly, brakes feel excellent, and the new Michelin tires have made a noticeable difference in ride quality and handling.

It's great to find an auto repair shop that takes pride in their work and genuinely cares about customer satisfaction. I highly recommend them for maintenance, repairs, and tire services. I'll definitely be returning for future service needs.

TQ Auto is my go-to for any tire, oil change or mechanical needs. Lovepreet and Shuba at the front are always friendly, helpful, and take the time to clearly set expectations. Their team works quickly and efficiently, and they’ve always been upfront and honest about costs and any work required. They take the time to answer questions, and genuinely take pride in what they do. Pricing is very reasonable as well. Highly recommend — 10/10 service every time!

Perfect! The staff was very helpful, I got a flat tire the night before, I called first thing the next morning and they advised to bring the car in. I dropped the car off and with in 30 min they were able to look at my car/tire and check all remaining tires. I was advised I had to change all 4. I brought my all seasons in and they swapped all tires for me in about an hour. Very friendly, reasonable prices and very understanding. Will Definitely be going back for other services.

I get all my oil changes done at Total Quartz, Westmount location. The staff is friendly and very good at communicating the issues. They also show you the problem and explain why a certain part needs replacing. I would choose this shop instead of going to the dealer.

I have always come here for my oil change and even when the team change, one thing remains co stant- Great customer service. Highly recommend this place for all car maintenance.

I had a great experience at TQ Auto Care during a recent visit for a quick oil change. The service was fast, efficient, and very well organized — I was in and out in no time, which I really appreciated with a busy schedule.

A special shoutout to Shuba for the excellent customer service. She was friendly, professional, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish.

These gentlemen are highly recommended. Its not easy for a woman to go into a shop without feeling like their being taken advantage of regarding what the vehicle "needs". This place is quick, efficient, honest and friendly service. I put my trust in them when it comes to my vehicle. Ive been back a few times for different things and they are always able to help!
10/10.

Brought my car in from out of town as wipers were not working. Right from the beginning they were all amazing. Unfortunately because I was out of town the part would not be in on time. They lossened the bolts on the wiper so no damage would be done to my car or the wipers. Highly recommend them. A definite 5 stars in my books all around. Such great and honest experience for me
