Adams Morey ……. Southampton vs Portsmouth? (1 Viewer)

[RoaminRich]

Just about to buy an Adria, it has a full service history with the next service due in September.

Question no1. Is it okay to bring the service forward to May? We are planning a trip to the Italian Lakes in June and thought it a good
Idea to have it serviced before we go.

Question no 2. The MH is a Comfortmatic and I have read so many good things about Adams Morey in Portsmouth but nothing about the Southampton branch….. are they as good, any feedback? Reason I ask I live about a mile from the Southampton branch.

Many thanks

Had mine done at Portsmouth excellent service had the 4 year service including the comformatic fluid change and brought the cambelt forward from 5 to 4 years as hopefully will be in Portugal when its due.

I live a mile or so from the Soton branch. Never heard anything bad about them. The local Post Office get their van servicing there. The yard always seems busy with lorries and the odd motorhome now and then.

Portsmouth branch are the experts on Comformatic so best to go there.

If you are still negotiating a price, I bet they'll chuck in the service to get the sale

But it will be a cheapskate service unless it goes to AM clutch fluid & clutch kiss point won't get done.

Good thing about AM in Portsmouth is they don’t mix the lorries and motorhomes, motorhomes have their own section for parking.
Had a lot of damage done years ago to one of my lorries that was at AM having some work done.
Would never put my van in a lorry garage!!

Yes at Portsmouth the servicing is separate, but bodyshop is surrounded and combined with lorries. Twas and interesting juggling act retrieving my PVC from the great repair done a couple of months ago.

I belive the service manager for motorhome stuff at Portsmouth is now a group manager which includes Southampton. The overall standards, and knowledge for troubleshooting should be similar.

Last week, 17/18 April, had my Laika Ecovip booked in at Adams Morey, Portsmouth. They took a day and a half for a cambelt change, which included tensioner and auxiliary drive belts and a full service. The service included engine oil change, new fuel, pollen and air filters and bi-annual brake fluid change. They also did the comfortmatic robotised clutch fluid change with clutch point relearn (?) and further maintenance checks all done with genuine Fiat parts. I have to say they were absolutely excellent, particularly Jo who dealt my initial contact requests and Simon the Van Department Manager. I have to say I have no affiliation with AM and this was my first visit to them, however I will not hesitate to return.

How do you access the code Lenny? Thinking of having my Comformatic done in July.

My motorhome has been worked on twice by the Southampton branch. Second time was because they didn't do the repair to the comfortmatic right the first time and Bournemouth branch sent it back to them without asking me first. At least the transporting and repair was under warranty

Thanks all.
The MH is now booked into Portsmouth later in May to have the Comfortmatic fluids done and clutch bite point re-learnt . Just booking it in and the knowledge shown by the person I spoke to fills me with confidence. Will see how we get on……..
