Service + courtesy car + brake pads? (NW + W London)

Post by cheapRS » Fri Apr 22, 2016 4:44 pm

Looking to book car in for a service. Around London and its surrounding areas.

Need a courtesy car while car is being serviced (preferably a nice one, but ideally just one that works!)

The brake pad warning light has just come on a couple of days ago.

Does anyone know the general costs involved and is there any dealers to prioritise over others, any to avoid?

Looking for actual cost of brake pads (can get these done elsewhere if Audi quote is ridiculous)

Looking at any around north/west London, west London, or outside of north west London.

Recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I'd come down to Jack Barclays, best RS Service in London, outside of that I'd goto Epsom Audi, but they are very south west

How many miles have you done out of interest?
Crewe and Stoke Audi have been offering great deals on brake pads on eBay recently.
I got a complete set of discs and pads with sensors for £1195 delivered. Close to grand cheaper than my local dealer wanted.

It's on about 13k miles now and this is its second service.
Feb 2014 car

I think it just needs pads and not the discs at this mileage? But will have it checked and confirm what it needs soon.

Just want to take it to the best place for the work to be done, and not get ripped off! :)

Jack Barclays are VERY good, but they are a London Service Agent, and hail from Bentley - so you pays your money, you gets your service.
