About Harrington's

Over 60 years in Halifax. Your go-to for VW and Audi service.

60+ Years in the Same Shop

Harrington's started as Harrington Brothers Volkswagen on Bedford Highway and has been at our current location on Stairs St ever since. We've seen every generation come through our doors, from air-cooled Beetles to modern turbocharged GTIs. In the last decade, we added Audi to the mix since VW and Audi share most of the same platform and parts.

The cars have changed, but the way we work hasn't. Honest diagnostics. Quality parts. Fair prices. We're not a dealership and we're not trying to be one.

Our Team

Built on Experience

We're a small team and we like it that way. Everyone here knows these cars inside out, and every customer talks to the people actually doing the work, not a service advisor reading off a screen.

Our techs went through trade school, completed their apprenticeships, and earned their Red Seal certifications. That's the highest standard in Canada. We also train apprentices, because the next generation of techs matters.

How We Work

What We Stand For

Not slogans. Just how we've always done things.

Honest Diagnostics

We tell you what's wrong and what it'll cost before we start. If it doesn't need fixing, we'll tell you that too.

Fair Pricing

We charge fairly for the work we do. No hidden fees, no padding the bill. You'll always know what you're paying for and why.

Quality Work

Every job is done right the first time. We use quality parts, follow factory procedures, and back everything with our 12-month warranty.
