hi

i have a few problems

the main one being an oil leak

think it might be from the oil cooler no sure

but if they are reasonable i may well have the brakes done

difficult finding the time to do it myself

i just want somebody who's not going to rip me off

All i know is they are a Citroen approved workshop

[Randombloke]

I have used Peter Simpson at Mid Kent Citroen (now Mid Kent Vehicle Centre) since 1993 and cannot recommend him highly enough.

 

Thanks to him I got a big check list for buying a C5. His workshop have looked after my last 2 BXes and my C5 as well as a 405 and a 406.

 

When people are moaning about repairers on this forum I thank my lucky stars that I can go to him.

 

I've also used Medway Citroen for cheaper repairs that involve things like recharged spheres, AFAIK this is no longer an option for approved Citroen repairers.

 

Pete used to do it a long time ago but doesn't any more.

hi all phoned up the garage in larkfied kent quoted me £650 that includes new oil cooler if found to be knackered top up eolys fluid replace particulate filter and empty deisel filter.they reckon 2 days work

may be cheaper if cooler does not need replacing.

also booked car into medway citroen to have internal door handle replaced as it snapped off last week they quoted £32 for the part and £40 labour they hav,nt done one before so thats all they are giong to charge me ,even if job takes allday.does that all sound reasonable?

thanks

£40 labour for an independent.....that sounds steep its only half hours work.
