Looking to get my service done by one of these guys. Have heard many bad rumours concerning Subaru dealers so i am staying well clear.

So, which one do you reckon??

Thumbs up

Never dealt with Subaru4you so I cant comment.

I have had my last two services at TSL and have been very happy with the knowledge and workmanship. I drive a fair distnace to get them to service it and its well worth the trip IMHO. I know they are pretty busy so I would book it in a much in advance as you can though.

cheers

I think my choice is clear by now, considering how many times I keep mentioning them, but incase you missed it...

T S L

answerd your Q on my other post too

EDITED: Just to say, I've not had any dealings with Subaru4you, they are probably a very good garage, & I'm not saying that TSL are better than them, I've only used TSL so I can't compare, but found TSL to be EXCELLENT. I'm sure others wont have used TSL but have used Subaru4you and found them to be excellent also. It all boils down to personal choice.

Cool

TSL are top bods, nice people to deal with. The main criticism I have is that their coffee is a bit strong for my taste!

I use Roger Clarke Motorsport for my servicing, I can't fault their workmanship, they're really helpful, knowledgeable people too. They're not the cheapest, but like most things, you get what you pay for!

Had two dealings with Subaru4You now, both have been excellent! First time was when I was swapping my down pipe for a de-cat pipe and managed to shear off one of the turbo studs, Len at Subaru4You came out to my house and had to remove the turbo, back the next night and fitted it all back in. Very decent price and saved me! Second was last Saturday for the 3 year cam belt service, again great service. I would happily recomend Len.

Cheers

I know I've repeated this in another thread, but how much for the 45k service from these independents?

I think it rather depends on where you live - TSL may be very good, but there is no way that I'm going to be bothered to travel all the way up to their place from Reading, and particularly when I've got the excellent subaru4you on my doorstep!

From my experience, I think subaru4you are excellent and would confidently recommend them to anyone else.

No connections, etc, etc...........
