Can’t drive due to a cast on my leg. Squeezed me in on short notice for inspection while I had a driver available. Passed me but forwarned me I will need to replace rear brakes after another oil change or so. Very helpful to be able to budget for the repair.

My windshield wiper fluid was not working. I learned it’s common for the nozzle to blow off in winter if it was frozen when I attempted to use it because of the pressure build up that’s not released. They reattached it and now it works all in 30 min. Always a good experience at Vidler’s!
