EPV 631 Posted July 24, 2018 Anyone got a recommendation for a JLR specialist in Kent, Surrey or East Sussex? I've found a chap in Surrey but would rather go on recommendation if possible. Will need to have dealer level diagnostic equipment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L-P 15 Posted July 24, 2018 Not in the location you suggested and probably a bit too far but Taylors in Great Dunmow, Essex are pretty good from my experience. I am ex JLR myself and never heard a bad word personally. They are an authorised repairer though https://www.taylorsservicecentres.co.uk/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EPV 631 Posted July 24, 2018 Cheers, I’m quite happy to travel an hour or two to get it to the right person first time. I could spend days messing around with local garages who will play parts darts with it and cause nothing but grief each time a “fix” takes place but ultimately nothing changes. Pay cheap pay twice in this scenario. As a JLR man, would you mind if I rang you with a diagnostic as I have it (usual snap on/high street garage diagnostics) and see if you have experience of this particular problem I have?

And don't forget to change the DMF while your at it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
