Duffy took my S8 D3 to Mackies and had the gearbox service done, I've not noticed anything other than smooth operation throughout my time so far. So that's good to be a positive vouch for their service

I want the job done asap. or should I wait till June to take it to Guy? you all know how it is when these little car issues irritate you. esp as she is my daily driver.
why June, because, it will def take a whole day out of my schedule and being 45 years of age means there are more pressing issues such as, taxi dad, gardening, shopping with wife, DIY, studying for my final year MSc

Wait an get it done properly... go cheap, pay twice

Mine is on 58k at the moment so I will book mine in at Mackies in the summer. What better than a slow cruise up to Glasgow early morning to get your gearbox serviced and then the slow cruise back down. Wonderful. Distance should be no worry in these things....
