Dealer service in the east midlands
« on: 03 November 2021, 16:46 »
The VW dealer I used for 10 years and had no problems with, and generally came up with the goods, has closed. Looking at reviews for an alternative has not led to any clear winner but lots of losers (including the dealership I bought the car from)! Any recommendations of a good service department or good tech would be much appreciated. Otherwise I will just have to take pot luck. Service due at the end of the month.
Mk6 GTI Carbon Grey, 2010 Bluetooth and voice fitted, a few VCDS mods still a comfortable family car. Red Scirocco 2011 twin charger stage 1 - enjoyable drive now gone.  White 2016 Polo GTI (roller skate on steroids) replaced with an Indium Grey 2019 7.5 GTI PP.

I really rate Sunset in Derby. Independent VAG specialist, although they are almost fully booked for December.
Previous Dubs now sold:
- Manual Mk7 CSG PP, stg1, RS3 bushes, 26mm RARB & a lot of carnauba.

Thanks for the heads up. I now have 2 independents but no dealerships - no surprises then!
