    Service suggestions please

    Hello, I have had excellent service from MLR but they seem to have lost the plot since Chris moved on. Can anyone suggest a really good service for my D4 please, anywhere between Melbourne and Sydney. I am happy with either indy or dealer, and don't mind travelling, as long as I can be confident of top work. With travel though, it would need to be someone with a loan car, so maybe only main dealers.
    Thanks for any suggestions, Paul

    British Automotive in Romsey may suit you. Ritters in Burwood are always reliable. There are quite a few other independents in Melbourne that others have recommended such as AMV in Ringwood. Closer to you would be Rova Range in Bentleigh. I have no personal experience, but I've only heard good things about them.

    I need to update my profile - I am now living on the coast, about midway between Melbourne and Sydney. I had forgotten about Ritters, could be a good suggestion if they do loan cars. Cheers.

    Have had a great run with the JLR dealer in Canberra - (not sure I can include their name but there is only one JLR dealer here so you should be able to find them . First interaction with them was several days after we bought our second hand Disco (from another dealer) and I had to call them at midday on a Saturday after an auto electrician failed an install of a brake controller ( leading to all manner of faults and a limping disco). The dealer called two staff in and they were prepared to meet me on the roadside where I had limped and then stopped; they then worked on a weekend (despite it not being usual business hours) and found the fault (wire loom cut with a drill!!).
    Mike and the team in the service centre were absolutely fantastic in terms of service, keeping us informed and repairing the loom. Needless to say I was back for my scheduled service and they were again fantastic.

    Many thanks, that sounds very encouraging. And Canberra is closer than Sydney or Melbourne!
    Cheers, Paul

    If in Canberra, then try the Series Workshop in Townsville Street Fyshwick - might be a better option than the Stealer - but you will have to book well in advance as they are very popular.
