I wanted to make a recommendation for anyone looking for an Independant to carry out servicing work in the York area.

Autohaus Diagnostics has recently opened on 1st September and they had someone drop a flyer though my letter box as they saw my car outside. I had them take a look at my car last week to sort out the alarm/immobiliser problem which they did temporarely until they had the car for longer this week when they were sorting out the MOT and few other problems.

I can't recommend them highly enough as I know they worked like demons on my car to get it sorted with some PITA problems! They recently left the franchied BMW dealers in York (Castle) where they had both worked for a number of years and have won all sorts of awards and attained levels of qualification. All their experience and training is bang up to date, so what ever age your car, they can service, repair, fit parts or diagnose problems.

http://www.autohausdiagnostics.co.uk/

The website isn't up and running yet but it has their contact details on for now. Just ask for Craig or Micheal.

PS No connection to the business, just a satisfied customer who has been searching for a decent local for an indy to have work done!

Might be worth a shufty.. Got any lists of prices? oil change etc? (pm me if you do)

I usualy go to Tweatspeed in John St. Paul who runs it (one man band) is pretty good and hasn't let me down yet. He's very thorough and he takes pride in his work.

I used to go to another 'BMW specailist' in York (Spectrum) but don't use them anymore.

Im not far from them either but Ive never really wanted to take my car to either a stealer or an ex stealer worker as they just astonish me with their lack of knowledge.

I took my M3 to Victoria in Harrogate and one of the mechanics came out, as I was walking in to ask if they would be able to look after it, and asked if it was a 325 with a body kit!!!

I got back in my car and drove away. Metcalf Motorsport it is from now on. Theres not a great deal he wont know about s14s

There's also a place up in Selby opposite a school or hospital I think - it's set back from the road, can't remember the name offhand.
