Hi all

I bought a beetle not long ago, and looking for a mechanic who familiar with air cooled vws. I live in Sydney east (Rose Bay), and tried a couple of workshops nearby but they asked a lot of money for poor service. Also it would be great to find "like-minded" people to meet around this area if there's any...
Thanks
Csaba.

Thanks guys

Yea I got reply from village, they don't work on air cooled vws anymore and recommend wolfsburg motors in st Peters. Terrible feedback.
I'll try vintage.

Thanks.

I have a friend that uses Wolfsberg and say they are good.
Abrupt people that dont stand around and "chat" but good work

Irrespective of where you go, I suggest getting a report on the car, including a quote to rectify the issues first. Even if it costs you an hours labour, this is better than a surprise invoice for work you didnt know was required or authorize.

Wolfsburg in Campbell St, St Peters are great - highly recommend them.
