Talleres Charlie

Description

Talleres Charlie is a multi-brand mechanical workshop on Calle Juan José Pérez del Molino in Santander's Cazoña district. It is run by Carlos Iriondo as a sole trader, and the scale shows in how it operates: you deal directly with the mechanic working on the car rather than through a service desk. It covers mechanical faults of all kinds, routine servicing and tyres. It belongs to the CGA network, which means work carried out here is covered by warranty at network workshops across Spain and Portugal — backing that an independent garage this size does not usually carry. Its distinguishing speciality is ECU remapping: it is an official distributor for Vagspeed and APR, two established names in engine management software, principally for Volkswagen Group vehicles. Faults that prevent a car passing the ITV emissions test come up repeatedly in customer feedback.
