ABOUT MDF

From tires to everything on the road.

The MDF name reflects its roots in Abbotsford's tire and automotive community. MDF Abbotsford Auto Guide builds on that automotive history with a broader focus: helping Fraser Valley drivers understand their vehicles, maintain them properly and get more out of driving in the region.

Tires remain an important part of what we cover, alongside maintenance, seasonal driving, local automotive services and Fraser Valley road guides.

MDF Abbotsford Auto Guide is an independent editorial resource and is not a tire retailer or automotive repair facility.

What we cover

Our focus is Abbotsford first, then the wider Fraser Valley — Mission, Langley and Aldergrove, Chilliwack and Hope. We don't try to cover all of British Columbia.

Editorial policy

We write for people who drive here. Every guide aims to answer a real question in plain language, with advice that reflects local roads, weather and services. We'd rather tell you what you need to know than write the longest article on the subject.

Advertisers, sponsors and businesses we cover have no say over what we publish or conclude.

How we research

  1. 1Start with the questionWe pick topics based on what Fraser Valley drivers actually ask.
  2. 2Check primary sourcesRegulations, manufacturer guidance and official road information come first.
  3. 3Check it locallyWe call businesses, drive the routes and note the date we verified details.
  4. 4Keep it currentSeasonal and local guides are reviewed at least once a year.

MDF independently researches businesses and services. Inclusion does not constitute an endorsement unless specifically stated.

Commercial links

Some links may be commercial or referral links. These do not determine our editorial conclusions. Where a page contains them, we say so.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it and note the change at the bottom of the article with the date. Business details change often — if a listing is out of date, tell us and we'll re-check it.
