"I don't know if I'll be returning."

Pricing and Value
Pros:
"Usually Startech can get the car in quite quickly, always provide updates as needed and get the job done for a reasonable price."
"Car came back quickly with no issues, it was also presented back spotless, fairly priced and professional garage."
"Recommended by a friend I asked them to change my CLK Cruise control switch. Quote was considerably cheaper than main dealer."
"MB main dealer corrected all the issues and fixed the original problem for less than £250."
"They have always done great work at a reasonable price."
"Their charges are fair and all work is of a high standard."
"Very pleased with service and charges had Merc service mot and new brakes fitted easy to book on line or by phone good communication and a reminder sent."
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."
"Not Impressed as of my first visit. More expensive than Main Dealer."
"I can't afford to throw money away. An expensive car wash."
Quality of Work
Pros:
"Repaired and serviced my car to a top quality level."
"Fixed my car and even cleaned it for me upon collection."
"Car was handed back to me having had a very good clean and running perfectly."
"They will expertly diagnose and repair faults on your vehicle and offer you a fair and professional customer experience."
"Always helpful & friendly, I often send my customers to them for specialist diagnostics & work, & always get good reports back!"
"Very impressed with the professionalism from Star-tech."
"Had some electrical diagnostic work done earlier this year, granted they found the problem rectified it in a timely manner, I have so far found 3 bits of interior trim that have had clips broken."
"Your diagnosis was wrong, to replace the HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP, I incurred unnecessary costs."
"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."
