sufu Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 evening all, anyone know of a reputable audi specialist in the york or even north yorkshire area? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Asked the same question a while back and drew a blank. There is one at Croft in N Yorks but that is miles away. Think someone mentioned Leeds too. Mine is due for a service soon and is booked in at York Audi (pah!) but I would rather an independent did it, not been impressed with Audi so far.

sufu Posted July 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Thats exactly the reason i'm looking for a specialist heh, I need to get the cam belt changed pretty soon (within 3,000 miles). Might just have to bite the bullet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skifly Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 think there is a place called audi care i think in leeds - my mum uses them a lot for her work. They are probably getting my car for service if all turns out ok... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Sufu, why didn't you say it was the cambelt?! I had mine done at a local garage, they did a decent job and it didn't cost a bomb. £428 inc VAT for belt, tensioner, waterpump, alternator tensioner bearing. Which side of York are you?

sufu Posted July 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 north side, im in haxby, can you give me the details fella? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 It was Rossmoor Garage in Melbourne, nr Pocklington - prob a bit far for you. The lad who works for him used to work at Layerthorpe VW I believe. When I took my A4 in, they were working on another A4 B6 at the time. He did keep it for 1.5 days though, rather than getting it done in a day so just be aware of that. You may find somewhere more local to you who can do it for a similar price, but he did mine and it has been spot-on. I don't mind losing the car for that length of time if the price is right and it's a lot cheaper than the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvantSE Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 They are OK yes, don't trust their rolling road figures though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
