  • question: do i need to book with a garage before i arrange for vehicle recovery? if not what is the process? (head gasket fail)

  • I had never considered not phoning ahead to the garage. If you just rock up, you've no idea if/when they could get around to taking a look.

  • You need to establish that "a workshop/garage" can do the job for you at a cost you agree with, or if it is under warranty, when they want it. Then either they can come and retrieve it from you or you can arrange its collection and delivery by a suitable transport. I don't think arriving somewhere with your broken vehicle and expecting them to welcome you with open arms is going to end well. Many garages have their own recovery or have a pet firm they use, so contact the workshop first and get a time slot then see how the vehicle is going to get there.
