Can anyone recommend a decent garage in the Teesside area? I need the brakes looking at (very noisy) but don't want my eyes pulling out.

Thanks

<not a recommendation as i haven't used them>

Lawsons just off the A66 near 'Boro ?.

I was thinking of posting this myself as the vRS is due for a cambelt in the next few months. I don't mind getting it serviced at the Dealers but i'm stuffed if i'm paying over £300 for & belt & water pump change.

Thanks for that. Let me know who you use to get the cambelt, will you?

Cheers

I wouldnt use lawsons if it was the last garage around, And i did use volkswerk until they repaired my bumped golf and they told me the would only use original parts and they gave me big confidence in them. I went to pick up the car and it had a copy wing and bonnet (very cheap quality and never fit ) What a w--ker alex is (As it was him who i delt with) I would never go back and i have used ron turnbulls at the side of volkswerk. They even did a quick job for me that was going to cost about £10 but in the end never charged me So ron turnbulls get the thumbs up or a mobile vw mechanic called pro-tec, He is spot on aswell.. Besides it smells of poo at volkswerk. Im not kidding either vomit
