Thanks MISS VDUB, where I am traveling the phone reception is poor to say the least, do you know if they do wheel alignments. QL is a long way from Perth😊

You dont need a VW specialist to give you a wheel alignment, but Kurt will recommend someone near by who can help you there.

Is Bill still operating Volkswest?

I know the shop closed down years ago in Kenwick, and then he was selling parts from another yard at a mates place I think?

Sorry wouldn't go to Vee Dub Centre if it's the last place on Earth. Bills a great guy, same with Kurt. Guarantee those guys won't try and rip you off! 😉
