Stem Seal replacement in Essex?

Does anyone have any recommendations for a garage in the Witham area of Essex who can replace my stem seals? Finally biting the bullet and admitting I'm going to have to find out what's causing my blue smoke :(

 

I usually go to Chelmsford Toyota, who have excellent customer service but will most likely pull down my pants, grease me up and aim for penetration over the price (I love a good film quote me).

Do a search mate, there're dozens and dozens of topics on smoke.... after searching searching and thinking for the best part of a week I've finally decided to have my seals done :p

 

I think we need a definitive smoking FAQ!

 

Where are you thinking of going Ian?

I've been pretty happy with Westfields in Rayleigh.

Why not ask them to give you a fixed quote? They always quote me before doing work on the Landcruiser...

Thanks for the replies people (except yours Tony, unless you want to do mine for me :p).

 

Replying 2 days later because I have no internet connection :(

 

Think I'll ask Chelmsford Toyota for a fixed quote as suggested :) If not then I'll try phoenix or Westfields (thanks guys :thumbs:)

 

I contacted GBH in Colchester who told me that "knowing these cars, it's very unusual for these to deteriorate" :conf: Call me old fashioned but that's kind of put me off going there.
