Andy was pleasant enough but the advice he gave me was completely wrong. He advised me that my DPF was faulty and needed either regeneration or replacement. I took my car to the main dealers who checked and told me DPF was fine, I just had a faulty battery. They replaced the battery and the car is now running absolutely fine. A waste of £60. Had I taken Andy's advice and called an independant out, that could easily have cost me over a thousand pounds for something that didn't need doing! I'll stick with the main dealers in future I think.
Reply from Andy:
I do apologies I will arrange for a refund very sorry Andy

Andy was punctual, polite and informative. The work was completed quicker than expected.
Would recommend.
a VW/Audi dealership in High Wycombe for 3 years. I moved to work in a local village garage for 4 years as I wanted to work on different makes & models. I moved to a few other local garages to gain more experience & again work on further makes & models so I had a more rounded experience and skill set. In 2010 I took a backseat role in mechanics to help my wife set-up our own business in a completely different industry.
In 2018 I came back to my passion mechanics! I set-up my own mobile mechanic business trading as Instone Mobile Mechanic. With all my experience I cater for all makes/models and will take on any repair. Read more
