I booked in for a free repair check. Informed them I knew I needed an engine mount but wanted a squeeling noise from my wheel sorted. Guys were friendly enough and dropped it off early. Got a call a few hours later saying that my drivers side wheel bearing was gone and they had spotted the engine mount as I expected. Popped to collect my vehicle and got a quote which said £295 for one wheel bearing, £357 For an engine mount as well. They also said there was only 2.1mm Of tread on three tyres and wanted another 364 quid to swap them. Safe to say I rang a local dealer 10 minutes away who quoted me £358 for both the bearing replacement and the engine mount inc VAT Which was a whopping saving of 300 quid and my normal tyre guy gives me decent budget tyres fully fitted for 50 quid a tyre which I’ve booked for three months time when they near the legal limit of 1.6mm as still 0.5mm to go yet. A further 200 quid saving!
Safe to say I’m happy with my saving of 500 quid and I won’t be using their Autocentre again at them prices
