Hi All,

I'm looking for a garage in East Belfast that specialises in dealing with dashboard lights on a BMW - can anyone help?

Thanks

Is this a good company Big Al?

I have used them in the past and found them ok - long established - other than that can't really say.

Yes Greenway are a good company, I've used them as well, they came highly recommended by my mechanic.

I had trouble finding it the first time as my satnav took me to a peaceline - go via the Beersbridge and you'll be ok though.

Are they reasonably priced?

I can't say for sure in the sense that I didn't do a price compare but my mechanic has always recommended people who do a good job for a fair price. I also thought they seemed like a decent setup, I was late to pick the car up, the guy's wife was waiting for him in the car and he still took the time to talk me through what he'd done. I don't think they'd take you for a ride (pun is accidental lol!)

Another vote for Greenway. I had a sidelight that was not working, I have VW with a canbus system, another autospark looked at it and told me it was the light switch that would need replaced.
I took it to Greenway and turned out to be a faulty bulb holder, under £20 to sort it!

Give them a ring and ask what they think.

Dropped the car in yesterday and Greenway seem to have identified the root cause of the problem facing my car.

It's a shame they don't do general mechanical work as as this would have made them a one stop shop for me. I will need to find such a place for the future.

To be honest it's unlikely you will find a good "one stop shop"
Auto electrics are complicated these days and often way beyond the skills of a good mechanic. Horses for courses imho.


Glad you seem to have the issue sorted.

I'll be more than happy come Monday when the car returns to the garage if the whole electrical issues are resolved. These have been going on for a while now and my previous mechanic had the car five times trying to resolve it.
