Just had my A4 serviced by Andy (ex Audi tech) at "A for Audi." (Glasgow area)
Great price and there's a pick up and delivery service. had a rear wheel bearing done as well and was told it would need 4 way track check/adjusted at a cost of £40. When car was dropped off he told me they put it on the machine and found everything within man. spec so no £40 charge, top notch.
His phone numbers are

0141 564 5899 or mobile 07810304416

Taking my A4 in tomorrow, hope it goes as well as yours. But more importantly, I get an honest service. I'm sure I will he sounds very helpful on the phone.

Andy has quoted me £650 for to front arm kits, 2 cv joints, rubber boots and tracking. Quite reasonable I think.

Sound good. I too am in the Glasgow area - could you give me their address please

**lennymfo** · 09-03-2007,08:06 PM

Yep, his number is 0141 5645899. He just outside CLyde bank. Mention that Ian Wood gave you his number and mention this website as well.

The jobs I got done would have cost 1400 at a dealer and it cost 650 with him - genuine audi parts as well

OK guys, this Independent would seem worthy of a mention in the "dealers" section of the forum: https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/f...splay.php?f=43

If you could post their details over there, then the rest of the forum members would, I'm sure, appreciate it.

Hello New member here from Glasgow. I after several very unsatisfactory experiences with Glasgow Audi at Hillington decided to choose A for Audi to do my belt change and water pump replacement. I had my Air Conditioning done at the same time as he seemed to be so professional and honest.

I must say I was not dis-appointed. They picked up my car, kept me informed and dropped it back off to me. No problems and nice folks to deal with. A total contrast to the take it or leave it attitude of the main Audi dealer.

He also fixed the internal alarm disable switch that was not working since Audi did a strip down for £6000 accident repair to my car (not my fault). Audi refused to fix it as they said they were not responsible, this despite there being several electrical switches also not working that they themselves had traced to simply not being put back together again properly by their guys. Anyways A for Audi fixed it for free as it was yet another switch not correctly re-installed and was simple to do.

Sadly I have to deal with Audi at Hillington to get my instrument cluster replaced free by Audi UK, I will let yopu know my experience as it progresses.

Ditch Audi at hillington cos they are overpriced and very poor customer service, especially when things go wrong, they just turn nasty on you.

Has anyone else found this?

i replaced the VV joints the other day on mind.. it Cost £150 trade for the parts...

The arms kit is around the same place... so you are looking at £300 labour charges..
