Please recommend me a garage for servicing - Logan or Brisbane Southside
My wife's Octavia is due for it's 2 year service.
It's a bit of a trek down to the Gold Coast to the dealer I bought the car from, particularly now I no longer work down there. Not to mention the bad experience I had there last time...
After that experience last year, I resolved that this year I was going to contact the nearer dealer, and see if they would service it. Unfortunately, both the Brisbane Southside one and the next closest one appear to have vanished. I contacted a few of the bigger garages in my area who have worked on my previous cars, and have been given flat out refusals to work on VAG cars. Coming from an Opel background (where everyone thinks it's just a smaller commodore so says they can do it, then gets confused when it's not and it needs different stuff), this was a bit of a surprise.
A google search for Euro specialists reveals a mixed bag of search results, ranging from the "not sure if still trading" to the "lying about being a specialist" to the "if the webpage is in English that broken, I frankly don't trust you with a spanner".
There's obviously some good ones out there ... but I haven't been able to identify them so far. Hence the request here...
I need a recommendation of a garage which will do a decent job of a normal 2 year / 30,000km service on an Octavia 90TSI in the Logan or Brisbane Southside areas.
