Looking for a non Dealer Subaru workshop
Hi All.
I'm in Melbourne.
Can anyone recommend a decent non-dealer (and preferably not at dealer workshop rates) workshop?
A friend of mine uses BM(W?)Tech in canterbury for their BMW. They live, eat and breathe BMW's.
I'm looking for something similar for Subaru's.
I have a MY02 Liberty Sedan, nothing special. Just looking for a place to do normal servicing etc, but with local subaru specific knowledge etc.
Hope someone can help.
Ta.

Beachside Automotive in seaford specialise in Subaru and Hyundai. I took my car there until I started doing all the work myself, however I still source parts there and have often called on them for advice when stuck. they're always busy, so I guess that's a good sign?
9783 5838 Luke is the owner and it is just him and a young fella named brendan.
Cheers,
Owen.

Seabrook is Point Cook?
I dont take any of my Subarus to mechanics, but ive seen a few Subarus going to HTR Automotive in Ravenhall (Deer Park) they generally tune all cars even high performance cars (currently they are doing up gen 4 Liberty into high performance.)
Otherwise, there is Volksbaru in Airport West as they specialise in Subaru and VW...
