Title: Best place for DSG service?
Post by: Rholtby on August 21, 2015, 12:21:50 pm
Hi all,

My ED30 is overdue its DSG service only by a couple of thousand miles but it's top of my list at the minute along with the DV.

Anyone know where's best to get it done in my area. I'm based in Ware, Hertfordshire. I know there's a VW and skoda garages in Harlow. Would they be best?

Colin Gunning in Hertford are VAG specialists. Couple people on here use them. Personally, I wouldnt use a VW dealer in Hertfordshire. Try Buntingford, they'll collect your car and drop it off BUUTTTT prepare for a the "weve found some issues with your car whilst its been on the ramps you may not be aware of" TWICE Ive had failed bushes and miraculously repair themselves on the next visit.  :signLOL:

I had my DSG and Haldex serviced at Watford VW, they did a grand job and spotted an oil leak for me, which I diagnosed to be a turbo oil feed. They were really good, and the fixed pricing was nice too.

Ok cheers people. I'll have a look a Collin Gunning Hertford as its only 5 minutes, if not then maybe VW Buntingford as funnily enough I just drove past it going to Auto finesse
