Re: Best shop for Diesel trucks in Fraser Valley
You mentioned the smell of diesel, we’re you referring to the smell in general or the possibility to smell it in the cab? Cab venting for a truck is further away from the exhaust so less chance of the issue your having. I looked at buying a Jetta tdi( 06 i think ) and the ac would turn off when you put the car into reverse to help avoid exhaust in the cab.

I’ve never heard the inside of a car called a cab.

Well the smell inside the cab is not the only issue. Start it in your garage and the whole thing stinks for a half hour Any time you're around it it stinks. I'm sure youd be starting your truck up in camp and such.
Just sayin .... my experience is it really stinks for a small 2.0 4 banger. I wouldn't want It any worse on a bigger engine.

I wonder why they call them "cabin air filters" then? Lol. What planet are you on?
Re: Best shop for Diesel trucks in Fraser Valley
Has anyone had any experience with the diesel doctor in abby? I have heard good things but have no personal experience... If you are mechanically inclined I would suggest reading up on the task and watching some YouTube videos.

Doing the hardware yourself is easy. It's the programming that is expensive and cant be done at home.

PM me if you are interested for info.
I called around last year and nobody in WA was doing any programming or deleting. Guy I spoke to said the EPA was up their butt and making life really difficult for the diesel tuners. I suppose it might have changed but I limited my search to BC after that conversation. I settled on a guy in Nanaimo but it fell off my radar and I never did end up doing it. Of course, I drive a Ford, so the stock power is adequate;-)
Re: Best shop for Diesel trucks in Fraser Valley
Are you mechanically inclined in any way? Have a basic socket set, Jack and jack stands???? Buy a plug and play kit. Simple to install and everything is already programmed into the tuner
