Garage near Worcester to change cambelt.

[Mini182]

Hi guys I'm looking for a garage in or near Worcester to change a cambelt belt, Aux belt and dephaser on my 172.

After reading a few horror stories of garages not having the right tools to do the job properly and making a hash of it, I want to take it to someone who can do the job properly.

Any recommendations appreciated.

Fred @ BTM in Birmingham, I wouldn't take it to anyone else for work.

Where in Worcestershire are you btw?

BTM seem to get a good rep on here. Is it best to email or call them?

They are still nearly an hours drive for me though. Anyone know anywhere in Worcester? Apart from the main dealer that is.

I'm in Tewkesbury and I went to Fred (BTM).

Well worth it.

 

[Fred@BTM]

thanks guys

i accept e-mails, phone calls, smoke signals, telepathy, just not Pm's or text messages (especially on sundays!)

my phone is on 24hours a day, no one else's is

 

[Fred@BTM]

oh and Worcester is nothing, we have cars in from Scotland, Germany and Ireland!

If you want looking after at good prices and a company you can trust use these. http://www.totalcontrolracing.com/ and through personal experiences, i WILL never take my car anywhere else now!!!

Honestly, the hour's drive is worth it.

The only thing I'd take it to Hylton for is an MOT (which I am on Wednesday, call me crazy but I still have my "Renault Premiere Warranty" so if anything fails I should be ok on it (apart from tyres etc)), the service Fred provides is more than worth the hour's drive.

My cambelt auxbelt and waterpump were done at Hylton
Before i bought the car off Alex though

Although he did get 50% off voucher because he bought the car from there

A job like that is also worth doing properly. I'm pretty sure Fred could do that with his eyes closed, literally!

I took my car into Hylton to get the rocker cover leak fixed under warranty as Fred had found out when i took it up to him and got pics.

They said it was a oil cannister and prompted to change that, lol. After a year of going back and forth I gave up and found them absolutely useless, they couldnt even diagnose the correct problem nevermind fix it!

 

[Fred@BTM]

i've been meaning to give it a go for a while now LOL maybe at CSS?

I go to Fred, its worth the trip and its not much from worcester

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Yes be warned! He will pick out every single thing wrong/missing/different to what it should be on your car.

 

[Mini182]

Ok, Fred it is then!

I'll drop you an email or give you a call tomorrow Fred.

 

[sbridgey]

Definitely call.
