Title: Recommended independant for servicing etc in West Midlands?
Post by: barlimow on December 06, 2011, 11:36:35 am

I'm after a recommendation for a good indy in Coventry/Solihull/Bham/Leamington/Warwick etc area. Just to replace a coolant sensor for now, but potentially for servicing in the new year.

Any good experiences from local indys would be useful to hear, many thanks.

Highly recommended.

Many thanks all. I've seen Midland VW recommended on a few other VAG forums as well, but they're the wrong side of the Midlands really (or maybe I'm just lazy and want someone on my doorstep...). Volkswizard are much nearer though, so will give them a bell first I think, cheers.

I would travel the extra distance for Midland VW. Jody is a legend when it comes to coding the car and just generally sorting problems in no time. Usually does free VCD scans too.
