Good Mechanic in Letterkenny?

Ruskey · 28-01-2011 5:48pm #1

Hello all,
I have some rare sound coming from down around where the drivers side wheel is on my van that I should have sorted a long time ago because it just keeps getting worse.

Does anyone know a good mechanic in or around Letterkenny? It'd also be a big bonus if they weren't too hard to pay too!

Thanks folks

pat mccrudden in newton is really good, goes out of his way to help, and is while easy paid.

beside mcmenamin tyres on main road before kernans

Damien Gallagher up Rahn (past the hideout) is very good, get my car looked at there. PM me if you want his number.

Adrian Wasson, the Glebe. Out the ramelton road. Very good.

Gerry Doran excellent and very reasonable. Had his garage in units on the back road behind the Kellys Toyota garage on main road into Letterkenny. Can give mobile if you wish:o

Leonard Wilson in Burt is the best I've heard of and experienced.

Turn left down the road just before the petrol station on the left about 1km the Letterkenny side of Burt. His house is the one with all the cars queued up outside.

You may have to wait a couple of weeks for him to get to you though !!

Its probably just a whining bearing or similar, so might not be any need to take it to a commercial garage.
I've been using Liam up the Cullain road for the last 10yrs, cant fault him 9124534

Ruskey · 30-01-2011 4:34pm

Thanks a million for all the replies. I'd be grateful to Vorenus and Bellarose if you could send me their numbers.

You're probably right Senna, it is a real whining noise so it could be a bearing or something like that so nothing that I'd have to take to a dealership, something that I try to avoid.

Thanks again folks, good to see so many recommended mechanics around the town

Brendan Boyce on the Cullion road works mainly of commercial vehicles and is reasonable to pay. PM if you want his mobile no.

Hi I live in Letterkenny, I failed NCT last week Vauxhall Corsa 1997 I need!! to get new track rods fitted, also there is rust in the base of the boot which needs attention, is there some kind of metal or welding thingy that can be done as this car is getting on, the cheapest would be the dearest,

I get my car serviced by Swilly Kwik Fit on Port Road. I always find them really reliable.

Melty · 07-03-2014 7:36am

Apologies for dragging up an old thread but wondering if someone could please PM me Adrian Wasson's number. I have searched long and hard - online, in the phonebook and golden pages but his number still eludes me

Did you ever get Adrian Wassons number? I'm looking for it at the moment, searched online, nada. He must be brilliant, imagine running a business, no contact details to be found anywhere!

I use advance pitstop in letterkenny. Not the cheapest place to get work done as its part of a chain but you get what you pay for mechanic wise in Donegal. I am happy to pay a little extra to get the job done right they always do I usually get the the car back the same day I leave it with them.

I had cars at garages for 3-4 weeks getting minor repairs carried out before. I was not impressed to say the least.

kiddums · 23-03-2015 12:16pm

I'm not going to badmouth anyone, but I'd never recommend Advance Pitstop.
I always recommend Adrian Wasson, or Dennis Ferry. Or Auto Fast Fit if you need a bigger outfit.

firemansam4 · 16-06-2015 11:18pm

Apologies for dragging this old thread up again...

I am looking for a good mechanic around the Convoy or Letterkenny area, to get a few things looked at on my Diesel Zafira.

Has anyone dealt with Thomas keys motors? it wouldn't be too far from where I work and could easily walk to it.
I was also going to try Kilpatrick motors in Convoy but that place was all shut up the last 2 times I went out there.

jmark · 25-06-2015 2:57pm

firemansam4 - Mark Frizzell at Drumkeen is top notch

cadete · 04-07-2015 6:45am
