Post by: webby888 on January 09, 2013, 08:32:23 pm
been having a few problems with the golf recently, tried a garage round the corner from me and didnt seem to know what they were doing and been to VW main dealer but their prices are outragous so i was wondering what independant VW specialist garages do people recommend in Reading/Berkshire?

The Phirm are just down the road between Hartley Wintney and Hook or you could travel a bit to JKM in Portsmouth.  :happy2:

Might be worth posting your problems up here and seeing if anyone has any advice. If you've already done that i'll be quiet :)

cheers for help guys, im thinking the Phirm is the closest to me!

when i drive after about 5 mins my abs light, esp and tyre pressure light come on. from similar threads i beleive it to be a wheel bearing or speed sensor??

Mill Road Garage in Reading. Used a couple of times and always received good service and a free courtesy car.

Also Roy at Autobarn in Basingstoke, Houndsmills or Storm Developments. I've never had issues with either :happy2: Always been helpful
