LR-D4 Servicing in Gloucestershire area

My Disco4 10plate is in need of a service at 63k miles.

my local LR dealers are quoting between £578 and £899 including parts and labour...
feels REALLY expensive.

any local knowledge of a better place to get it done in Gloucestershire area.

Don't have any warranty left on the vehicle that I'm aware of, but want to take it somewhere that knows what they're doing.

Any help really appreciated as its overdue and brakes are squealing when reversing.
 Loving my D4 HSE -MY10......!!!!

you're a star "alfamale"
I must have been rubbish at searching on here then as I tried that before asking, now feel silly Laughing

will give some of those suggestions a try...
Tim Fry seems to be the favourites at moment... although will ring a couple of the other independants too

Notice you're a local - any personal preferences yourself you can think of.
cheers for taking the time to help

As one of my posts in the search suggests, I have never had a problem with Stratstone to be honest, but they are bloody expensive. And if you do use them, make sure you speak to someone at the dealer and not the centralised booking office....they're seemingly clueless about everything!!!!

Have also heard good things about cam-tech-landrover.co.uk but not had a service done there...yet Wink

YH I bough the car through Stratstone and to be honest their customer service was very hit and miss even when spending that much money - had loads of return visits and car not preped properly etc. One guy Pete Harper from their PDI department was brilliant and always sorted things even when not his department. Just a cost of £899 for a service is just too steep for me at moment.

Hi

Personally speaking I have had nothing but problems with Stratstone- Cheltenham.

The last one is currently still being looked from August - Shocked and still no response to my calls or emails.

I use a local Indy near Stroud - he is now an authorised LR service centre.

Last week when collecting my car he had a 6month old RRS on the ramp all linked up to LR.

I am currently debating trading up - called into grange in Swindon - wow what a difference couldn't do,enough for me!

Happy to pass on the details on where I use - I have no connection with them. Just good honest service

Ackers

Anytime, dubbs. As long as you don't want to meet in Stroud tonight...it's Goodwill Evening and there are too many people enjoying themselves out there from what I can see from my office window. Laughing

Lots of little Censored running around with silly string too!

I'm still using Cotswold Motoring Services. Not far off J13 of the M5. Another junction down from there and you have CamTech.
