BERNHAUSEN SPECIALTY AUTOMOTIVE
PROFILES of EXCELLENCE

rom fleet vehicles to privately owned trucks , if you have a diesel and want the best , you can ’ t beat the expertise of Bernhausen .
Many specialty automotive businesses work on diesel engines , but few specialize in only diesel the way Bernhausen Specialty Automotive does .
From the front end to the shop floor , diesel is all this team knows . As owner Satya ( Sat ) Bernhausen puts it , his crew lives and breathes diesel .
“ We are first and foremost , diesel specialists ,” Sat said . “ It ’ s all we do . There ’ s no room here for anyone who doesn ’ t absolutely love what they do .”
It ’ s that specialization and passion for diesel that has made Bernhausen a leader in Western Canada . This isn ’ t just a nice catch-phrase , Sat and his team put everything they have behind delivering the best possible service to their customers .
“ We have a full service fuel lab on site and a state of the art fuel injection test bench ,” he noted . “ With very few shops having this technology in Western Canada , it certainly sets us apart .”
The specialized equipment in house allows technicians to see test results for the vehicle they ’ re working on in the shop . Not only does this eliminate sending injectors out for testing , it creates a quicker , more accurate , in-depth analysis .
Of course all the fancy equipment in the world is useless without expertise . Sat still works on the shop floor and with 20 plus years experience he ’ s a wealth of information , but it ’ s still not enough for Bernhausen .
“ We have to stay ahead of the curve ,” Sat explained . “ There are new vehicles coming out all the time and we have to know those systems inside and out so we are constantly training and updating our skills and knowledge . We can work on the most recent vehicles out there .”
The Bernhausen team is able to fine tune a vehicle to a customer ’ s unique specifications allowing for better fuel economy , improvement to trouble areas , and better overall performance results .
From fleet work to personal vehicles , Bernhausen specializes in Ford Powerstroke , Dodge Cummins , Chevy Duramax , Volkswagen TDI , Mercedes TDI , and other newer European diesels .
“ There has been a shift in the market to more high-efficiency , smaller diesels ,” said Sat . “ We ’ re staying one step ahead of that to ensure we are equipped to handle all diesels – large and small – as they come through the door . That ’ s why we ’ ve invested in specialized equipment .”
Customers continue to come first with Bernhausen . Even as the company has grown , the Service Department is always available to discuss customer needs .
“ It ’ s a passion for us ,” Sat noted . “ At the end of the day we do whatever it takes to resolve vehicle issues . We want every customer to be completely satisfied .”
