They re conditioned my engine which was fine the first time, 4 months later engine broke down again and they said they would cover under warranty! Funnily enough they come back 2 days later asking for another £1800!!! Nah mate dont think so! They reconditioned the engine again which I had to go back a few weeks later as the car started leaking oil. And now again 2 months later car is leaking oil! I WOULD ADVISE PEOPLE NOT TO GO HERE AND PAY THAT £2/300 EXTRA AND GO SOMEWHERE PROFESSIONAL! THESE LOT ARE NOT PROFESSIONALS MOST OF THEM ARE APPRENTICES STILL LEARNING ON THE JOB!! AVOID TRUST ME!!!!

DO NOT USE! avoid these guys at all costs, I had my TT engine overhauled last august, they said it would be 7-10 days, i got it back 11 weeks later, Been pouring out oil ever since and knocking from the engine. Took to an approved Audi mechanic and they 1. didn't fit the oil filter correctly, hence the constant oil leak, 2.the timing chain is loose, hence the knocking and could come off at any time and seize the engine. Tried to call and email, no interest from the guy who arranged the work or the garage themselves. Cost me £2,950 for the job and will now cost a further £3000 to put right their work, when i collected the car, the garage is like a scruffy unorganised collections of damaged part and equipment in such a mess that they often mix up parts, bolts, nuts etc, there are several other forums like a VWt5 forum that also has nothing but shocking reviews and cases of being ripped off. All Cash or bank transfer, no credit or debit payments, Also not a legal registered company and therefore not paying taxes hence the CASH only requirements.

Initial discussions were good and they agreed to collect my Golf and refurbish the engine within 7-10 days. 2 weeks later I had heard nothing from them. I called them to ask where my car was. They hadn’t started it and were ride on the phone. They promised the vehicle would be ready within a week. A week later, still no news or contact from them? Called again and was told someone would call me. No one did! Called again to chase to be told that after 4 weeks they hadn’t even started the vehicle. When I asked them to return the vehicle to me they refused and told me I would need to collect it? When questioned why after 4 weeks they hadn’t even started the car the guy on the phone called me a c**t and put the phone down. They subsequently blamed covid19 but simply did not communicate and were unable to give me any assurances on a completion date. Whilst I fully understand the issues caused by covid19, they took the vehicle and agreed a 7-10 day lead time during lockdown and not once did they keep me updated. The staff are rude and I would suggest you look elsewhere for your engine refurbishment. Still not got my car back!
