Post by delboymafia » Mon Mar 08, 2010 2:07 pm

Hi everyone, my RS6 is 1500 miles away from a service, can anyone recommend a garage to take the beast too, one that i know will do everything right. Cheers. Chris.

East Kent Audi in Canterbury will obviously tick the boxes but will be expensive as labour rates are c£105/hr +VAT.

QST in Sussex another option as is AMD in Thurrock?
Would recommend a drive to MRC or even Unit 20, ooop North. A longer drive, but attractive rates (shame about the faces though ;)), and you know they'll be given everything they need.

B5 RS4 - now sold.

QST in Haywards Heath run by Kim Collins serviced mine @ 60k and did a great job- far cheaper than EK Audi

I am based in Broadstairs / Thanet - but i am in Tunbridge Wells every three months - Haywards Heath only another 20 or so miles further- but as i get mileage paid for not so bad but does take some planning.

Know what your saying "Kent just isn't the place for owning an RS and being close to a specialist!!"

But as previous posts have said Unit 20, MRC, QST, AMD [in no partcular order] are all well worth the planning, mileage and the extra time. Their hourly rates more than make up for the time taken and petrol used, these guys live and work to maintain their reputations. The main dealers have a captive audience for up to about 6 years on the in house warranties , with exception one or two which are well posted.

Hi raceman, if you don't mind me asking, where do you take your beast for servicing. i am due in 1000 miles and im not sure where to take it, either main steeler or another small garage. Yes i am aware of the road past the spitfire museum. Cheers. Chris. :FIREdevil:
