Lol, thought as much 😁, regarding Toyatech, yes, I only know this because it has been mentioned on here, thought there might be someone a bit closer to me, not sure if you have a few to choose from around your neck of the woods, but down this way, they seem to be few and far between. 

I am building up a list based upon suggestions being made.

I know of no others in your area yet Paul.

Not a specific Lexus/Toyota specialist but a very good and trustworthy mechanic who really knows his stuff and his prices are very reasonable too. He's worked on my RX300 when I had it and also my current RX450h and I highly recommend him.

Looking forward to reading it Steve.

Replaced y section of rear exhaust with stainless. When rear silencers eventually go they can be replaced easily.

Not had a chance to look under at work yet. Cost was £160.

He also has a technique to remove blockage of Aircon that causes wet carpets (common issue) using air (on the gs450h).

Efficient and friendly service but establishment is the polar opposite of a Lexus dealership.

Thanks Steve. Yet another recommendation for Grove Garage.

I’m South Lakes, anyone have any recommends in Cumbria or Lancs. I’ve used A1 Autocare Centre on the Wirral previously (excellent) but a bit far to go at the moment... thanks

Great to see you've drawn up a list of garages. This will be really useful, particularly if it can be given a bit more prominence in the forum.

Looks like you haven't added Toyotec yet. I see you didn't get a reply to your question but after checking a map I can confirm that Redhill is not the same place as Guildford! 

(Admittedly they're both in Surrey but assuming they're the same place is like assuming Chester is the same place as Crewe!)

I thought they were the same William.

If you give me Toyotec address etc, I will add them to the list.

One for the South East. Near Haywards Heath. Lovely location in the woods.

Lee, the owner, drives an LS as his comfy car. They specialise in performance tuning Supras and certain Lexii.

Fitted my radiator for me today.

I know James the mechanic from when we had tuned Saabs.

Brilliant John, many thanks--it is now No 9 !

 

I think that Barry U.K. may be compiling a list, but he has been silent on the matter since he mentioned it.

My mentioning it might jog his slumber.

Just seen this John but my list will be the same as yours as based on recommendations made on our LOC forums  I do think it helpful for members to be able to go to one place for ease of reference which purpose is served by this thread.  I would therefore suggest that anybody who includes very favourable comment about work done by an independent or specialist applicable to Lexus as part of a general report on their car under a separate post, also adds it to this thread giving very summarised  detail of specialization or general servicing.

This is the last one I had Barry. Another Member agreed to maintain it going forward.
