I am lucky enough to work from home, but pretty tied to being around as there is an element of childcare involved each day.
As a result, getting to any of the recommended specialists often mentioned on here is tricky - I am about equidistant between 2 of them.
So, does anyone have any knowledge of a competent and RS4-aware mobile unit that might be able to come to me to do a Carbon clean?
I am not even sure if it is needed yet, as have not done any '3rd gear' tests or similar, but through I would ask!
Thanks

Appreciate the quick answer.
I am near St Albans, so right between Banbury and Essex. Which would you choose? I have no experience of either.

MRC is the popular vote round these parts. AMD has less support but afaic just as competent
Re: Mobile Carbon Clean? Risky?!
IIRC, AMD do a special offer for the carbon-clean (cheaper than MRC) but you’ll probably want an MRC map to make the most of it, so horses-for-courses.

Based on your geography and from the two you mention it has to be MRC - Clean and map. In my opinion, it's a real no brainer. I've heard enough stories posted, verbally mentioned at meets and PM'd to simply consider MRC only in this neck of the woods...
