修车店 literally breaks down like this:

• 修 = to repair, fix
• 车 = vehicle, car
• 店 = shop, store

So 修车店 means a vehicle repair shop / car repair shop / garage.

In everyday speech, this is a natural, compact way to say it. A more formal version might be 汽车修理店.

离 is the word used to talk about distance from something.

The basic pattern is:

A 离 B + adjective

So:

• 修车店离这里不远
• literally: The repair shop, from here, not far

This is how Chinese expresses A is not far from B.

Very common examples:

• 我家离学校很近。 = My home is close to school.
• 银行离这儿远吗？ = Is the bank far from here?

Yes. You can also say:

这里离修车店不远。

That is also natural.

The difference is mainly what you want to talk about first:

• 修车店离这里不远。 → talking about the repair shop
• 这里离修车店不远。 → talking about here / this place

So Chinese often lets you choose the topic first, as long as the distance relationship is clear.

Because 远 is an adjective, and in Chinese, adjectives can act as the predicate directly.

So Chinese says:

• 修车店离这里不远。

not:

• 修车店离这里不是远。

That second version is not correct.

A useful rule:

• use 是 mainly to connect nouns
• do not normally use 是 before an adjective predicate

Compare:

• 他是老师。 = He is a teacher.
• 他很忙。 = He is busy.

So here, 远 works like far, and 不远 means not far.

Both can work, but they are not exactly the same in tone.

• 不远 = not far
• 很近 = very near / quite near

不远 is often a little softer and more neutral. It often suggests fairly close without sounding too strong.

So:

• 修车店离这里不远。 = The repair shop is not far from here.
• 修车店离这里很近。 = The repair shop is very close to here.

In conversation, 不远 is extremely common.

这里 means here.

Yes, you can often say 这儿 instead:

• 修车店离这儿不远。

That sounds natural too.

Very roughly:

• 这里 is the fuller form
• 这儿 is very common in speech, especially in northern Mandarin

Both are everyday Mandarin.

Here it is pronounced bù with a fourth tone:

• 不远 = bù yuǎn

That is because 不 only changes to bú before a fourth-tone syllable.

Since 远 is third tone (yuǎn), 不 stays bù.

Examples:

• 不远 → bù yuǎn
• 不大 → bú dà because 大 is fourth tone

So in this sentence, keep it as bù.

Because the sentence is negative: 不远.

In Chinese, when adjectives are used in a positive statement, 很 often appears:

• 很远 = far
• 很近 = near

But when you negate the adjective, you usually do not need 很:

• 不远 = not far
• 不近 = not near

So 修车店离这里不远 is perfectly natural.

No. 离 is most commonly used for distance, but that distance can be:

• physical distance
• time distance

Physical:

• 学校离我家很远。 = The school is far from my home.

Time:

• 下班离现在还有两个小时。 = There are still two hours until getting off work.

In your sentence, it is clearly physical distance.

Not necessarily.

不远 literally just means not far. Depending on context, it may suggest:

• fairly close
• not too far away
• easy enough to get to

But it does not always mean right next to here.

If you want to sound stronger, you might say:

• 很近 = very close
• 特别近 = especially close

So 不远 is a useful, natural middle-ground expression.

Yes, this is a very common pattern.

You can use:

Place A 离 Place B + 近 / 远

Examples:

• 超市离我家很近。 = The supermarket is close to my home.
• 医院离这里远吗？ = Is the hospital far from here?
• 地铁站离公司不远。 = The subway station is not far from the office.

So your sentence is a very useful model to remember.

In everyday use, 修车 can sometimes refer broadly to repairing vehicles, depending on context. But very often, people understand 修车店 as a car repair shop / garage.

If someone wants to be more explicit, they might say:

• 汽车修理店 = auto repair shop
• 自行车修理店 = bicycle repair shop

So the exact type can depend on context, but car repair shop is a very natural interpretation.
