Default Gatwick Subaru - servicing
Hi,

Do we have any specific contacts at Gatwick Subaru regarding servicing? I remember going to an open day the year before last IIRC, and the bloke who came across as the boss in the garage seemed a good bloke.

Wish i remembered his name

Dave then, nice one lads.

While we're here, what I am actually after is my brake system to be diagnosed for even the smallest of leaks. This the best place to go for that?

Why? The cars brakes just don't feels as sharp as they used to be. (My car is a GL) I had the lines renewed with braided hoses, but it isn't anywhere near as good as I want. Admittedly the brakes were only bled at home. Not with professional kit which I assume Gatwick Subaru use.

Beyond that I will try new pads, but I want instant bite, the kind you get from a Megane (Circa 2005) or Mk7 Fiesta.

Tell him what you've got, and what you want, and he'll spec something up.
