Default Garage recommendation

Hi chaps / ladies.

I’m in the Banstead/Epsom area and need some help with the scoob, possibly centre diff. Any recommendations would be appreciated. I’ve looked around but can’t really find anyone local as such 🤷*♂️.

There is no one local.

So, your best bet is to give Dan at Surrey Subaru Specialist a call. He's booking about a month in advance at the moment, but I'm sure he'll be able to help and is worth the wait.

He's looked after my FSTi for the last seven years and my wife's WRX for the whole time she's had it.

Hi Stig, thanks for the reply.
Yeah I spoke to Dan, he’s booked up way into the end of August early September but recommended me a gearbox specialist in leatherhead. Hardy Engineering. Will give them a call tomorrow.

As an aside if anyone has used them before for a Subaru and can give their experience would be appreciated.

Neil at slowboy racing Brands Hatch has a good reputation if you are looking for an alternative?

Hello mate. Yeah I’ve looked at slowboy but I’m assuming like Dan at Surrey Subaru, they’ll just send the diff off to be repaired? Leatherhead is much closer too so won’t be as expensive getting it transported!
