Hi, I have been trying to resolve this issue for a little while on my own but have decided to see if there is anyone on here that is either based in London or knows of anyone in or around North London who could look into my van, preferably someone that is used to looking at them. I would really prefer someone that is already known to be trustworthy or has been used before as always worry when it comes to garages often . Thank You |

I used to use a fleet commercial garage in east london for bits on mine but the last couple of years done most of the bits myself, last time i was there i took it in for a timing belt as its not something i have the room to tackle at home and 8 miles later i had a timing belt failure seems the bolt snapped holding the tensioner on but i have my doubts..anyway top end engine rebuild at there cost and no more taking it to thempersonally now i would only use a main dealer for big jobs i cant do myself and my way of thinking is the money i save doing bits myself more than covers the odd occasion it needs to go to a main dealer one thing ive learnt about vans and cars is saving money in the short term normally means big bills in the end |
