Need Call-Out Mechanic Galway City

    Hi everyone, This is for Galway City.


    I’ve a Vauxhall Astra Diesel. Was on motorway doin 120 when something went in engine, white smoke out back, lost power, managed to crawl home and park her up, when i slowed down to a crawl also noticed engine knocking. So pretty serious... suspect cracked cylinder head or something of that nature.



    Can’t drive to garages to get it checked and get a quote which means a tow. If i get a tow i was quoted 70 euro one way then 50 euro to tell me what’s wrong with her, then obviously i have to leave it with them to fix or pay another 70 euro to tow her home. If i do leave it with them and it is something like the cylinder head then it’s an expensive job and cheapest option might be a second hand engine install.


    My own mechanic is a good bit away and have been advised by him to find out what’s wrong with her first. As I don’t want to get stuck with her in a shop with a mechanic I don’t trust (don’t know any mechanics in galway!) i’m therefore looking for a good call-out mechanic to tell me what’s wrong with her before I bring her in. I’m east side of Galway City.


    So any contacts, numbers, recommendations for call-out mechanic in Galway City?


    Cheers
