NSW Need a VW Mechanic in Sydney

[Lauren Eather]

Hi All,

I have a 2002 model VW Golf and I've generally taken it to Barloworld, Mascot whenever it needs servicing. It's always ridiculously expensive, and I've just been quoted at $780 to get my front passenger door unjammed. This feels incredibly over the top and I was hoping someone could direct me to a Sydney-based VW mechanic who could fix it for cheaper.

They unjammed the back passenger door last time it was serviced and I'm pretty sure 50% of the costs weren't taken up by the door.

PLEASE HELP!

Thanks Ziggyboy, I'll give them a call. I live in Surry Hills which isn't too far, although I work in North Sydney.

Door jammed usually means replacement of the catch assembly which are over $400 each before labour.Pain in the neck job and can take quite some time.

Thanks, yes I've been quoted anywhere between $450 and $700 depending on how long it takes to unjam the door initially. Labour will be either 10 mins or 1 hour. Either way, I still owe Barloworld $150 for diagnosis.

Thanks so much for your help.
