Diesel Truck Repair
Saanichton, BC
Cummins, Duramax, Powerstroke — EDP Automotive handles diesel diagnostics, turbocharger service, fuel injection, DPF regeneration issues, and complete diesel engine repair for Saanichton and the Saanich Peninsula. Our shop at 400 Burnside Rd E is a short drive from Saanichton with no highway traffic.
Diesel Expertise — Minutes from Saanichton
Diesel trucks and equipment on the Saanich Peninsula need a shop that understands the systems that make them different from gas vehicles — high-pressure fuel injection, turbocharger boost control, exhaust aftertreatment (DPF, DEF, EGR), and the heavy-duty cooling systems that keep them running under load.
EDP Automotive has been serving diesel owners across Greater Victoria since 1966. Our shop at 400 Burnside Rd E is approximately 20 minutes from Saanichton via the Pat Bay Highway — no ferry, no congestion, just a straight shot down Highway 17.

Diesel Services for Saanichton Truck Owners
From a diagnostic code pull to a complete engine overhaul — here’s what we handle on diesel trucks and equipment.
Diesel Diagnostics
Professional scan tools with diesel-specific protocols for Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke. We read diesel-specific fault codes, live fuel rail pressure, boost data, and exhaust system status.
Turbocharger Service
Boost leaks, vane sticking (VGT turbos), wastegate failures, and turbo oil seal leaks. We diagnose whether the turbo is the problem or if another system is causing it to fail.
Fuel Injection System
High-pressure common rail diagnostics, injector balance testing, fuel pressure regulation, and contaminated fuel system service. Diesel injection systems operate at extreme pressures and require specialized equipment.
DPF, DEF & EGR
Diesel particulate filter regeneration issues, DEF system faults, and EGR cooler failures. These aftertreatment systems are common complaint areas on modern diesels — and common sources of check engine lights.
Cooling & Overheating
Diesel engines produce more heat than gas engines and run higher cooling system pressures. Radiator, water pump, thermostat, and EGR cooler failures are all common diesel overheating causes.
Preventive Maintenance
Diesel oil changes, fuel filter service, coolant flushes, and transmission service on the intervals your diesel engine actually requires — not the generic schedule a gas vehicle uses.
Diesel Platforms We Service
Light-duty through heavy-duty, domestic and import.
Cummins
5.9L and 6.7L in Ram trucks. Common rail fuel system diagnostics, turbo actuator issues, and EGR/DPF service.
Duramax
LML, LBZ, L5P, and all generations in GM/Chevrolet trucks. Injector balance rates, fuel contamination, and DEF system faults.
Powerstroke
6.0L, 6.4L, 6.7L, and 7.3L in Ford Super Duty trucks. HPOP systems, turbo issues, and the 6.0L’s well-known EGR cooler failures.
Sprinter & Transit
Mercedes Sprinter and Ford Transit diesel vans. Common issues include DPF regeneration, turbo resonator leaks, and glow plug circuit faults.
Import Diesel
Toyota, Nissan, and Isuzu diesel platforms. These are less common on the Island but we have the diagnostic capability for them.
Heavy-Duty & Fleet
Medium and heavy-duty diesel trucks, commercial equipment, and fleet vehicles. We handle both scheduled maintenance and breakdown repair.
