Title: GTi Specialist in East London/Essex?
Post by: angelis on July 23, 2014, 01:33:19 pm

Just picked up a 2006 GTi and I need to do a few bits to it.

Can anyone recommend a specialist in the East London/ Essex area.

Thanks

Just need a few bits replaced. Cam follower, dIverter and roof aeriel. Plus DSG service.

Would rather take it to someone who knows GTi's inside out than a main dealer.

AMD aren't too far.

Any feedback on them?

You could speak/try Alex of AKS. He is based in Bedford about 1 hours drive from London.

Amd seem to be marmite on here, I had my car remapped there the other day as I can't make it to retch and I couldn't really fault the service

But as said aks have never had a bad word said about them so if you can make the trip...

another +1 for AKS, even though he is 90 minute drive from me in East London, his service is excellent!

Thanks all.

I'm going to drop it off to the garage today that works on my other cars. They have a VAG tech there and they are very local.
