Wheel Alignment/Balancing : Madhus Enterprises (Langford rd, Bangalore)

Jaggu · 3rd June 2010, 12:11

Absolutely recommend this place, have been a customer for more than 5 years i guess.

What i like
Have proper tools.
Trained technicians.
Pretty decent labor cost.
Clean facility and a waiting bay for lazy bums.

What i don't like:
Can get crowded and parking can be an issue, though they try to manage it.
Sometime's special requests like setting the air pressure up before wheel alignment kinda requests, require a firm tone.
Don't have valve cap cover's on sale

Guys, the past few days, the road in front of the shop has been under repair. So, it is 10 times worse than usual. Normally, even if the shop is crowded, it isnt jammed! That problem should get rectified in another week or so. The road was being repaired and the drains were being cleaned so that rainwater doesnt collect.

@Nikhil: so both your facilities (langford / Basvangudi) have latest tech in wheel alignment ??
any recommendation on which facility to visit ?? (distance doesn't matter)

I have had a very pleasant experience dealing with Madhus.

Glad to hear that the road will be repaired soon.

One week sounds good. Will wait. Please update the thread when it is done.

Would definitely recommend Madhus.
Good equipment and well trained guys.

Almost everything has been said...
Just to add, my experience has been excellent with Madhus'. The last time when Nikhil noticed the sticker, he came by looking for a fellow BHPian. It was a nice gesture. Thanks Nikhil.

I have bought 2 sets of tyres with them apart from regular 5k alignment and balance. Only once, about 3 years ago there was an issue in steering alignment, the was promptly corrected after one week and satisfaction was ensured.

Great going...

Would definitely recommend Madhus as its owned by our fellow Bhpian. Good equipment and well trained guys. When I drove my Verna for the 1st time, Nikhil noticed the sticker, he came by looking for the owner of the Verna and thats how I bumped into a true, cool bhpian. Got special attention to my car thanks to the LCLC sticker on my rear bumper

Been topping up nitrogen at madhu's since last 6 months and all I have to say is excellent service.

quadra · 7th June 2010, 00:54

Humm...so i tried to visit them today but unfortunately i had no idea about basvangudi. Luckily google map helped me reach there but i was roaming in circles for almost 30mins, not to mention the horrible sunday evening traffic.

I called tyre professionals twice today but due to language problem (my bad) i was only able to gather bits and pieces

which didnt lead me anywhere :(

After 45mins...i gave up and came back home.

Which one is closer to Domlur ??

kaushik_s · 7th June 2010, 01:31

Went for wheel balancing to their old place(near Bangalore Hospital) once but it was closed as they were shifting. Didn't know the new address so had to come back and got the balancing done at Vijay alignment :( . Would love to go to Madhus for my next alignment/balancing work which is probably due now.

Nikhilb2008 · 7th June 2010, 01:43

Kaushik --- That isnt Madhus. That is the other place called Tyre Professionals.

quadra --- The Langford Road one is closer to Domlur.

Great and usually lightning-quick service. Crowded at peak times but very professional and (in my experience), courteous.

Highly recommended.

kavu75 · 8th June 2010, 12:42

I am a regular there, from last 2 1/2 years, precisely after getting my Aveo.

What i like -

Trained technicians
Well equipped (using proper tools)
Very decent cost
Patiently listen to the requirements

What i don't like

It's in bit crowded place ( anyway nothing we can do on this)

sammyboy · 8th June 2010, 15:47

Thoroughly professional, completely automated and completely realistic timelines.
Been here once, refer everyone I come across to Madhus. What more do I say.
