choices for maintenance/service for a D3/D4 in Newcastle hunter valley area

[paddy119]

Hi everyone,

I am Seriously going to take the plunge and buy a late model D3 or a new 2.7 D4, but i am a little concerned about the service and maintenance requirements as there is no longer a land rover dealership in Newcastle. i live in the hunter valley and it would be a real pain in the a__se if i had to travel to parramatta to get it serviced. i understand warranty claims would have to go through the appropriate channels.
So my question is " are there any places that are qualified/certified to service my D3/D4"

Thanks in advance
Paddy

I know that All four x 4 at Kotara service D3's. There was one in for a service the other day when I was up there and when I asked they told me they service heaps of them.

They seem to have a good mechanical workshop, overhauling all their own modules - gearboxes, diffs, ..... seem very professional.

Probably worth a visit if you are in the area.

There is a new Land Rover dealer about to open in or near Gatehead. It's behind the Mercedes dealer.I think it's called Hunter Prestige Cars.

I also saw on here recently that there might be another one in Singleton.

I understand that Hunter Prestiges 2nd branch is in Cessnock

A little off topic but has anyone had any experience with the Land Rover Dealer at Gateshead, Newcastle. Thinking of buying a 2011 RRS 3.lt from them. Any feedback good or bad would be appreciated.

Hunter Land Rover

They have been up and running for about 6mths. So far reports are all good re sales and service.

Another option for servicing is Singleton Auto Centre (formally Teasdales of Singleton and a former L/R Dealer). This is also owned by Hunter Land Rover and is a LR services centre.
Derrick Watkins is the service manager (he and Luke are LandRover mechanics and L/R owners)
65 George Street, Singleton. Phone Number is 0265721655

Thanks for the feedback, ideally would like to deal with the local dealer if he can provide a reliable back up service. Nice to know there is a a good service agent in Singleton if needed.

I didn't realise Evan had sold out.

A fellow Landy owner from my part of the valley has been taking their TD5 powered 110 there and are very, very happy with the service so far.
No one else around here has the diagnostics for the electronics.
