good, affordable garage?

so i may need my nissan micras wheel bearings changed.

i know 2 shops, one very close to my home and very cheap, but the guy also only does a mediocre job. good enough for oil changes and simple stuff. if he requires parts, he asks me to go and get them myself and bring to him.

the other shop is pretty expensive - they will take 150-200 only for a checkup and then charge extra for stuff that needs to be done.

is there a shop thats somewhere inbetween? that cand take care of my stuff without me doing the delivery guy for a reasonable price?

my micra is probably worth 1 grand, so i dont want to spend 200-300 on changing the wheel bearing if you know what i mean. but i cant ignore it either because... well i dont want my wheels to lock up one day when i'm going 100.

Not sure which part of Cork you're in but Ballinlough Motors do a good job at a decent price. There's also the fella on the Woollen Mills in Douglas who has a good reputation.
