SE QLD - Where to take the GTI for service?

[Barnz]

Im on the sunshine coast & ive heard plenty of bad things about our local VW dealer so its not going there lol & after reading the forums the VW dealers seem hit & miss anyway.


Where does every 1 take their cars?

I saw some 1 on here has euro a service place in briz but it was late at night & many threads where looked over & now i cant remember who it was

Ive also have a modded awd 1988 ford laser tx3 & i do everything on that service, change motor, change gbox etc etc bla bla BUT for the 1st time id like to get it serviced & have some 1 that knows the polo's look over it for my peace of mind u know.


cheers all

If you are talking about oil changes and the like. There's nothing exceptional about the Polo that you couldn't do at home.

I prefer to use German made filters. If you are going by Narangba, I can set you up with a couple.

LCA bushes are probably the most difficult thing you'll get into. Have a read of my Cheapy thread to see about them.

I have some poly dogbone mounts on the shelf too.

its up for a major service :/ need belt from reading service book

its had the lca bushes changed recently in a VW service i have the receipts from last owner & its got full logs books so as far as i can tell by driving it & having a look underneath on stands its got no issues but id still like some1 that knows polos to check it out u know. only so much i can tell in my garage with car stands & a jack as opposed to some1 with a hoist & has been workin on dubs for ages.

need to make sure its in 100% before i come see u for a tune gav or now i dont have to with that wire thing, all in good time anyway
