Hi All. I'm looking for a decent independent for servicing and general repairs for my 03 E220 CDI. Are there any decent guys in the Dudley/Wolves/West Mids areas that anyone can recommend?
 
Mercland in Nuneaton or Howard Williams in Brum or the only two I know. HW will take their time and won't bother to contact you though.:cool:
 
There are actually quite a lot of MB indies in that area. I tried HW once, and he was ok. I did try one in Wolverhampton, when I worked there briefly. Cannot remember the name, but they were not good. Charged a lot of money for a very basic service. Claimed to be Mercedes and Rolls Royce specialists, but I am not sure how genuine that claim was. The ones I consistently used were WDM in Perry Barr, who do the job quickly, and will contact you. They will also contact you if anything unexpected comes up, before they go ahead and do it. The number is 0121 3311066. I used them for four years, bought two cars off them, and would still use them if I lived in the area. If you give them enough notice, they will probably give you a courtesy car for the day as well.

The other garage that a lot of people rate is Andy Gayle in Smethwick, but think he's a little bit more pricey. I believe that Andy Gayle, Howard Williams and the lads from WDM all know each other, and did their training at the MB main dealer in Brum, whose name I have forgotten. So they all know their stuff.


I think there is one is Dudley, T.J. Himley if I remember correctly, but I have not used them.
 
Had mine serviced with a transmission oil change as well last week at WDM in Perry Barr, Birmingham. Really nice bunch of lads who obviously know their stuff. Prices good, less than £300 for the following:

"A" service, including oil and fiilter change, air filter, wipers front and rear.
Transmission oil and filter change
STAR diagnosis for the BAS/ASR fault

Would definitely recommend them, number is 0121 331 1066.:bannana:
