    Please Recommend some good Workshop/service centre in Melbourne

    Anyone have any recommendations for a non-dealer service in south eastern suburbs of Melbourne for 68k service?
    Read some good and bad reviews for volksaffair a few years back, anyone been there recently?
    Read a lot of good reviews about volkwerke, volkscare but they are a bit far. Pls help! Cheers

    Have a browse through the Recommended repairers section - the first 2 pages have about a dozen Melbourne recommendations.

    Unfortunately, sometimes you have to travel a bit. If you get a good workshop you might only have to visit once a year. A lousy workshop close to home might need 3 or 4 visits a year trying to fix their own mistakes.

    I use Motor Mechanics Melbourne in Murrumbeena for all my service and workshop requirements.

    They are Audi & VW specialists.

    Their prices are competitive and the service is great.

    Highly recommended.

    Went to Volks Affair ( volksaffair ) in South Melbourne today for the first time. Got stung almost $400 for a service, which predominately involved an oil change! Not a good experience overall. From when I arrived in the morning, I was barely acknowledged for about 15 minutes while I waited for the another customer piss farting around... same again when I picked it up. The main reason I took the car in was to get a few minor issues checked, as I am capable of doing an oil change myself, but thought I'd get it all done in one hit, because it was due. NONE of my issues were fixed - I was simply told 'we could not replicate, but come back next week if you're in the area' ... which to me means that they may not have had time to look at it, as when I got there at the end of the day it was up on the hoist.. last car of the day. My car also came away squealing all the way home, as it now requires new brake pads. Will not be returning, that is for sure.
    Current - 07 MKV Golf GTi, 6-Spd-M, White.

    Previous - 04 WRX, 99 WRX, 98 WRX.
