E46 CSL Where to Service in Manchester?

[smicher1]

Car is a due a service this month, have previously used Williams Manchester but the tech I know has left the dealership.

Full main dealer history since new, so I'd like to keep it that way. Can anyone recommend a main dealer around Manchester with a service team who knows their way around M Cars please?

Cheers!

I believe Darren Wood in Stockport is rated quite highly.

Thanks Five, but I'm looking to stay with a main dealer.

Bit let down by Darren Wood last time I had some work done.

Any other recommendations anyone?

i heard they used to be good but now get very busy and seem to rush jobs, i think lead time to get workbooked in is about 4-6 weeks.

Does it have to be Manchester? you looking to get the inspection2 done

How about the other Williams in Stockport (used to be David Holmes) our Blue Bell in Wilmslow?

I've not had very good service from dealers in the north west, and started taking it further afield (Knights in Stoke was my regular one towards the end of my dealer servicing. I now take it to a specialist down south (when I'm working down there) for major stuff or Graham Martin automotive in St Helens.

If it's a inspection 1 id take it to any main dealer. It's just an oil change.

The valves clearences have to be done on Inspection 1 aswell as Inspection 2

Yep, Williams Stockport or Bluebell are the main ones I'm considering, in all likelihood it will be one or the other.
Was hoping to get a personal recomenddation to help sway the decision.....

It is just an oil change but will hopefully use the same dealer when the inspection comes due.

Thanks for the input so far guys.
