Founded on the belief that repairs should prioritize workmanship and cost-effective solutions over “replace-everything” practices, KNW Diesel began as an independent service shop determined to give customers an affordable, high-quality alternative to major-dealer pricing. From its earliest days, the company established a reputation across British Columbia for expert diagnostics, meticulous repairs, and reconditioned components that perform like new—often at a fraction of replacement cost.

A leadership transition in 2015 ushered in an ambitious growth phase. The new management team broadened KNW Diesel’s scope to cover marine propulsion, heavy-duty machinery, and on-highway truck applications while securing additional OEM and aftermarket parts dealerships. Today, the company operates with a veteran workforce known for solving complex problems and delivering end-to-end service—from field repairs and overhauls to parts supply and project engineering—reinforcing KNW Diesel’s standing as a trusted, province-wide resource for equipment owners who “would rather fix it right than replace it.”
