Cons:

  • "Nice try StarTech with that pricing, never again visiting there! £253 stay in wallet, be smart think twice everyone because this is how garages like this one working and making money on us customers."
  • "Less than three weeks ago I was by the garage to do services and MOT because My friend said give them a try and I noticed yellow engine light on my dashboard and I call them and I spoke with John he asked me to come over after bank holiday and I was their to be checked and John told drama I have to pay amount of £387 and I asked for what? he told that is!! But I am too smart to be scam I will never go there again."
  • "The wheel speed sensor needed changing, and they quoted £170 for supply and fit. After calling Mercedes Trade parts department the part is only £13."
  • "Then I called my warranty company to find out that the cost of the sensor replacement exceeds the repair cost they agreed with the Star Tech and I have to pay £80 on the top."
  • "You will need a mortgage to pay for your car as they find issues that shouldn't be there."

  • "The worst garage I’ve ever been to tried charging me over 2000 pound and gave a list of defects that needed doing which taken to another garage said mainly none of it needed doing."
  • "Sadly couldn't fix the problem, as my vehicle was too old to be comprehensively diagnosed."
  • "Helpful friendly staff and a great service with a loan car, a bit disappointed in that there is a dash computer fault on my dash that needed looking at and thought they would do this, but said they didn’t have time."
  • "I had to come back at least 2 additional times to get the wheel alignment fixed when they couldn't find the problem, wasting multiple hours of my time getting there and waiting."
  • "Car has been in twice. This time I paid £100 on diagnostics and the problem of knocking suspension wasn't found."
