Hi everyone, I’m after some advice on having new front brake pads and discs fitted please. My local Jaguar MD in Coventry doesn’t seem to want to know as called them 3 times this week to ask for a quote but heard nothing back from them. Any recommendations for an Independent in the Coventry, Warwick, Bromsgrove area please? Cheers

Either that or they are too scared to answer the phone at the service desk because of the parts shortages

Probably because they are closing down and moving - they are scrapping the Jag dealership and moving into the Landrover site up the roadMArtyn Veg wrote: ↑Fri Nov 17, 2023 3:30 pm Hi everyone, I’m after some advice on having new front brake pads and discs fitted please.

I've never liked that dealer, they forgot to change the oil in my diff which is now knackered, and i've bought two ftypes from them.
I use Farriers in Ratby by Leicester, they do pickup and delivery for me but I dunno about Cov.... they are a great indy
I've used the dealer in Solihull they were ok for main dealer prices
somone i work with uses these guys for his XF and says they are good https://www.jaguarspecialistsbirmingham.co.uk/

Parts cheaper from web than any dealer will sell them for and no labour, plus personal satisfaction in doing it.
