Chandos Platinum Service in Cheltenham
This service not only includes all the items contained in our Gold Service but in addition includes repacking the non drive wheel bearings plus an Automatic Transmission service. In the case of manual transmissions we check/adjust the operation of the clutch and change the transmission and differential oil where required. We believe this to be the ultimate in motor vehicle servicing.
