Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, i am new here, and recently have left the bosom of the OPC network. I live in South / South East London in Dulwich. I need a good local independent for a 996 and possibly my 2011 Cayenne (also just out of warranty but may continue with the OPC). The guys I have heard about are: RGA (Vauxhall) JJ Engineering (Beckenham) 911Box (Hayes / Bromley) Charles Ivey (Fulham) I really need someone I can rely on and trust, and who does a good professional job. Thanks!

POST 2Original post

I wouldn't touch Charles Ivey my friend and I are not happy Try sid at Porsche torque honest and getting a lot of custom

POST 3Original post

Porsche torque is in uxbridge so may not suit you but he is a good mechanic ex opc

POST 5Original post

Xavier auto clinic is good, Phil or Michael. Based in Hammersmith.

POST 6Original post

I take my 996 to Sid @porscheTorque even through Im in Brighton.

POST 7Original post

Northway, just west of Reading (junction 12 M4) - highly recommended. Since I found them, over 10 years ago, I won't use anyone else. Ray Northway and Paul Stacey. Brilliant.

POST 8Original post

+1 for Northway...my car's been going there for around 10 yrs now. They're even just a few minutes walk from Aldermaston Station, so easy to drop off/collect.

POST 9Original post

Another vote for Northway. Ray knows his stuff and has a loyal custom base. I use Jaz in Wembley who again have a great rep. Appreciate its bit of a mission from Dulwich though.

POST 10Original post

Bought a 986 from Northway, absolutely fantastic service. 986 got written off, replaced with 987 which is under OPC warranty until end of year. Then it will be looked after by Ray & team at Northway. I live in South Wales & although 90+ miles away, the service & no bullshit advice means it's worth travelling for.

POST 11Original post

Just been on Holiday to Lincoln to see the Three Lancasters - Stayed in Woodhall Spa. I had my Oil Changed last week and as I checked the Water found I had oil in my Water (Not Water in Oil) Went to Sport 911 in Horncastle 3 miles away. VERY,VERY Professional Diagnosing a faulty Engine Oil Cooler on Thursday they said they could do it On Monday and get it back Tuesday. Got it in Monday, Hired a car from Richard Dear for two days. Got the car back Tuesday as promised Great job Car Great These are real professionals and worth drib=ving too we will use them if possible its a 3 1/2 hour drive Thanks Guys
