Why Footscray drivers book StalexAuto
- West Gate corridor, not the CBD. Footscray Market and Whitten Oval are typically 10–15 minutes. Plenty of customers pair a drop-off with city or hospital errands.
- VW Group and dual-clutch. S tronic / DSG complaints from 3011 are a weekly pattern. We quote gearbox work after a scan and road test, not from a symptom email.
- Maribyrnong-side used-car checks. Pre-purchase inspections for European cars bought around the inner west — findings in plain language before you negotiate.
