Serving Poulsbo, WA

If you need reliable auto repair in Poulsbo, WA, B&B Auto Repair is the trusted choice for North Kitsap drivers. Our shop is located in Bremerton — approximately 15–20 minutes from downtown Poulsbo via Highway 3 — and we’ve been serving the entire Kitsap Peninsula, including Poulsbo’s waterfront community and surrounding neighborhoods, since 1983. Call or text us at (360) 377-0682 to schedule your appointment.

Poulsbo’s character — a mix of Scandinavian heritage, waterfront living, active outdoor families, and newer residential development on the hillsides above Liberty Bay — creates a distinct vehicle profile. We regularly work on trucks, SUVs, and adventure-ready rigs driven by North Kitsap families who log serious miles on Highway 3, Bond Road, and weekend trips across the peninsula. Our ASE Certified technicians handle all of them with the same commitment to honest diagnostics and durable repairs that has kept Kitsap County drivers coming back to B&B for over 40 years.

Auto Repair Services for Poulsbo Drivers

B&B Auto Repair is a full-service shop — not a quick-lube chain, not a single-specialty operation. Poulsbo-area drivers trust us for the complete range of automotive services:

• Engine Diagnostics & Check Engine Light — Poulsbo drivers covering long distances on Highway 3 and beyond depend on accurate diagnostics. We use professional-grade tools to pinpoint the actual cause of warning lights before recommending any repairs — no guesswork, no unnecessary parts.
• Oil Changes & Scheduled Maintenance — Staying ahead of manufacturer maintenance schedules is the most cost-effective way to protect your vehicle. We handle the full scope of routine service, from oil and filter changes to complete multi-point inspections.
• Brake Inspection, Service & Repair — North Kitsap’s hills and winding roads — from the descent into Poulsbo’s waterfront district to the grades on Bond Road — put real demands on brake systems. We inspect and service pads, rotors, calipers, and brake fluid on every make and model.
• Transmission Service — Fluid exchanges, diagnostics, and repair for automatic and manual transmissions. Towing and hauling put additional strain on transmission systems — we know how to assess and service vehicles that work hard.
• Cooling System Service — Radiator maintenance, coolant flush, thermostat and water pump replacement. Cooling systems are easy to overlook until they fail — often at the worst possible moment on a remote stretch of road.
• Suspension & Steering Repair — Shocks, struts, ball joints, tie rods, and wheel alignment. Poulsbo’s varied terrain — from smooth Highway 3 to rougher rural roads throughout North Kitsap — accelerates wear on suspension components, especially in trucks and larger SUVs.
• Clutch Repair & Replacement — Manual transmission service from adjustment and bleeding to full clutch replacement. We work on everything from everyday commuters to purpose-built four-wheel-drive rigs common throughout North Kitsap.
• 4×4 & All-Wheel Drive Service — Transfer case, differential, and 4WD system diagnostics for the trucks and SUVs common throughout North Kitsap. If you’re running a truck or adventure rig in the Poulsbo area, we know your vehicle’s systems.
• Pre-Purchase Inspections — Buying a used vehicle from a Poulsbo dealer or private seller? Our thorough pre-purchase inspection gives you the complete mechanical picture before you sign anything — so you’re never buying someone else’s problem.
• Battery, Electrical & Charging System — Battery replacement, alternator testing, starter diagnosis, and electrical troubleshooting for vehicles that won’t start or are showing charging system warning lights.

Serving Poulsbo and All of North Kitsap County

From our Bremerton shop, we serve drivers throughout North Kitsap County — including Poulsbo, Kingston, Suquamish, Keyport, Bangor, Hansville, and surrounding rural communities. Poulsbo is the commercial and community hub of North Kitsap, and many of our most loyal customers make the short drive from Poulsbo’s Viking Avenue corridor down Highway 3 to get the honest, quality service they can’t find at the chain shops closer to home.

Poulsbo’s housing stock includes a significant number of older properties — particularly in established neighborhoods surrounding Liberty Bay and on the hillsides above downtown — alongside newer development in areas like Centennial Park and Noll Road. Vehicles in these households see heavy use year-round, from daily commutes across the Hood Canal Bridge to weekend adventures throughout the Olympic Peninsula. According to the Auto Care Association, vehicles that receive consistent professional maintenance last significantly longer and retain more resale value — a meaningful consideration for North Kitsap’s active-use vehicle market.
