Default Recommend a Garage near Bristol?

Can anyone help between 3000-4000 revs there is a slight juddereing when under full acceleration? I've been told it could be a sticking solinoid? Has anyone else had this problem or similar? The car its self is modded to 360 bhp with geniune APS parts from WRC tech. There is no juddering under light acceleration between this rev range. Tiley's said the'll put the lap top on it and check the dianoistics but the problem seems to be be when car is under load which from what i understand the dianoistics will probably do a sweeping search and not find anything? Then interpro want around £200 to put it on the rollers and test it, neither garage has mentioned even driving the car to see whats happening. I just think there thinking about making money and not about fault finding correctly neither garage wouldn't let me speak to a mechicanic or asked if the car was modified. Can someone recommend a good garage?

Many Thanks

Jon

I'm very selective on who touches me baby...I use Quick Motorsport in Hereford or Bob Rawle, both top notch. As with all things in life though, the best are hard to schedule in as they're very very busy always.

I've had lots of good work done by them but not cheap...I've since found other places that do just as good work for less per hour.

Whilst I was there the other day someone had a quote to replace a head gasket and was quoted 180. I'm having front wishbone bushes replaced and new front droplinks (all OE parts) also for 180. Summut to go on for ya.
