Seat Panda – All

MS Autos provides both warranty and post-warranty Seat Panda servicing at our workshop in Reading. All Panda servicing is carried out to Seat specifications; we provide a Full or Interim service depending on what the manufacturer servicing schedule recommends for your vehicle and of course, we carry out all the checks that may be required to comply with your warranty.

We have dealer diagnostics to ensure that any issues are isolated quickly and accurately and that any parts or oils that we use are of manufacturer-approved quality. Essentially, the Seat Panda service that we carry out at MS Autos is the same as you’d get at the dealership – it protects your Seat warranty – and on top, we promise more personal service and more reasonable prices.
