Default Servicing and repairs map?

There hasn’t been enough input into this to justify a map. In addition to those already on the T4 map and our traders these garages have been recommended by members

Allen & Hall Bernard Road, Romford, Essex RM7 0HX

All Cars Gunhills Lane, Armthorpe DN3 3EB

MG Rover Repair Oxford Road Service Station, Oxford Road (A423), Ryton, Coventry CV8 3EA

Great idea, as I wouldn't have a clue where to go around my way. I can tackle most things, but you never know.

Thank you.

[QUOTE=stevestrat;2670904]Been wondering how useful the T4 map I created has been, shows 1197 views, of course there's no way to tell if that's people just having a nose or actually making use of it to find a T4

If there's a demand I'm willing to create a similar map for servicing and repairs, I did consider everything on one map, tried it and very quickly it just became confusing! What do you think folks?


Its all good!!Go ahead if you get enough interest.
The original T4 map is great - but Im surprised at how little there is showing within an hour of West London, I thought there was a guy near Wokingham who I met at a local meet ages ago! Also PhilT4 around Milton Keynes - or maybe you are way ahead and these guys have stopped trading.

I am at Newark and at first struggled to find a good garage. I do almost all the work myself but got caught out when replacing the rear wheel bearings and then getting an ABS fault. I thought it was nearside rear but didn't want to replace leads unless I knew which one it was. Saw this garage in Lincoln recommended on another Rover site. They diagnosed and replaced nearside ABS unit for reasonable cost.
Last year I got awful knock on my transmission and thought it might be drive shafts. The service manager only took a minute to diagnose DMF failure so 10 month old clutch etc. and DMF were replaced again at reasonable cost. I think they were a Rover MG agent and first photo on website shows a Rover MG Specialist notice on the wall.

I trust these people and recommend them. They could diagnose the ABS failure as they said they had the right equipment so maybe they have a T4.

Good luck with your map.

Info is coming in very slowly compared to the T4 map, only six marker on the map so far.

Re PhilT4 (and Brian) their "day jobs" have changed which means they no longer have as much time available and have dropped out as traders, temporarily I hope.
