I was told about Zi' garage about 6 months ago when i needed a bit of work on my suspenion and the engine management ligh come on. I was advised he is the go to specialist for my Audi that i've owned since new. I only wish i'd heard of him before as he will alway be my go to garage now for any work on any car i own. He has done 2 jobs for me, great price and done to high quality standard. A recent problem with the engine management light coming on again and after a couple of checks he diagnosed i hadn't put the oil cap back on properly which was showing an air leak. It was sorted within seconds

Had a problem with daughters VW Polo start stop system error and warning light. Not used Zi's Garage before, but read good reviews and booked car in for diagnostic test. Zi soon identified the problem, after a quick update with me sorted it in a few hours - replacing a faulty part.Keeps you fully informed, fully explaining the problem. Very professional, knowledgeable and reasonable prices. A decent guy too, highly recommended and will definitely use his services again.
