Alex and the team are very knowledgeable and know how to treat a customer, I was very happy with the res delete for my S3 along with the upgrade of mmi system. Would recommend everyone to bring there Audi or BMW down for tuning, maintenance or styling. One very happy customer and am looking forward to my next visit to remap using the APR Map to gain the much needed performance the car is lacking ! 10/10 would recommend a friend

I researched far, deep and wide for a tuner to map my car. Getting your car tuned can be a very big decision, especially if you have a project car with numerous custom modifications.... but after lots of meticulous months speaking to different tuners and car owners, as well as pouring over hundreds if not thousands of forum posts over time, I pulled the trigger and took my car to QS Tuning and they were GREAT! The results exceeded my expectations!!! Their customer service is good for two reasons: excellent in-depth knowledge of the cars they work on, combined with sincere honesty and expectation management. They don't sugar coat anything, they tell you exactly what you can expect with warts and all, so you can know your vehicle better and understand how best to take care of it and get the most out of the performance it is capable of. I have a fairly complicated project car. it started as a diesel Audi A5 sportback and then converted into a petrol with a V8 4.2L RS5 engine swap with a Whipple supercharger. This supercharger kit has been known to blow engines if not tuned properly, but QS Tuning have an excellent track record working with this setup and know its pros and pitfalls. I began talking with QS Tuning a year or so before I even had my car in a position to have it tuned, and they were very realistic with reservations (rightfully so!) as to whether my engine swap would be successful and if it could be tuned effectively. throwing a supercharger on the CFSA engine is already hugely ambitious as it is with many potential obstacles. But from my conversations, I grew confident that if anybody knows this kit inside out and stood a chance of tuning it successfully, it'd be QST. From the get go, I was impressed with QS Tuning's honesty and knowledge on supercharged RS5s. They had one as a demo car. I kept in touch with them as the months rolled on - my RS5 engine swap was a success thanks to NOSB Performance in Poland, When the time came to finally take my car to QST, they ran pre-flight checks, worked thorugh some niggles (such as overcoming my car security systems preventing the ECU from being written to), and a week or so later, HURRAH! We have a tuned supercharged RS5 engined A5 sportback!!! One of the best moments was going to pick up my car. Alex Collins at QST took me for a spin in my own vehicle, giving me an appraisal of the map, the best bits and the bits that could be better. In my case, the car has downshift points that are totally fine and some that have some slight bogging. Most tuners wouldn't necessarily point these things out. And guess what... she POPS AND BANGS!!! :-O Good golly gosh, I'm not even a pops and bangs guy, but it's like having your cake AND eating it... I get to drive an Audi RS5 engined car with that signature beautiful V8 banshee scream to 8250RPM, which now ALSO throws crazy pops and bangs on downshifts like an Ip Man wing chun 5-punch combo... to say I was giggling like a teenage girl was an understatement!!! LOL Alex explained that it's not even artificially mapped in like on some cars that sound like they have petrol popcorn diarrhoea, these are natural pops and bangs as welcome byproduct of the car running nice and rich to minimise engine knock and keep all of that extra air from the SC in check. If you want someone to just butter you up and inflate your dyno numbers with a quick'n'dirty map on the cheap, then QS Tuning are not for you. But if you want a good tuning company that only deals with well written maps and parts, with passion and knowledge that car enthusiasts can appreciate, and a personal customer service touch that only a hardworking family-owned business can provide, you will not go wrong if you go to QS Tuning!!!

Total refurbishment of an old Audi Quattro 1987. This team took over 3 years to refurbish, and at every step of the way informed me of what needs to be replaced. Genuine parts were used through out the rebuild of the car. the paint work was faultless. the engine rebuild is perfect. in fact the whole car is like new. Fair play to Kim and Alex, and Kims mum who had a lot of time and patience with me on the rebuild. I am proud to mention that the car was reformed by QST. Again thank you for what you have turned around. my car is over 32 years old. Kim and Alex you should be proud on what you have achieved and WELL DONE

Amazing service from Kim, Alex and the team. Took my R in for an APR map. Can’t fault the process, included were multiple dyno runs to ensure power was consistent, graph was also given to me. Would highly recommend for any Golf R work, and I will certainly be going back again for more work and map changes!

Absolutely fantastic company. Alex and the team are spot on. I wouldn't trust many people to work on my car, but these guys REALLY know what they're doing. In the past, they've done some amazing builds - like Alex's personal S1 and the legendary golf R (Which is an absolute beast!). The communication and customer service is spot on. Cannot fault them at all. Keep up the good work guys!

I recently had the pleasure of speaking to these guys (Kim in particular) regarding a problem, and requiring a large amount of information, and despite being fully aware it would not result in a job or any kind of payment for themselves, they could not have been more helpful if id bought a stake in the company! from start to finish they were extremely helpful and knowledgeable, very very quick to respond and polite and accommodating when they realized i had 0 idea what i was on about myself lol. couldn't recommend them higher, and after a few minutes searching car forums which lead me to find them, it seems the general car crowd would agree with me. big thanks guys

It’s tough finding a garage to trust when it comes to your pride and joy but Kim and Alex at QST were very accommodating and provided outstanding technical recommendations to me when it came to getting the best from my new car. I’ve been back for extra work and will let the guy service my car going forwards. Outstanding service - 5*****

An acquaintance of mind has had, and is still having a nightmare with these guys. Tuning his car and having issues, resulting in a blown engine from them failing to check and diagnose issues and potential issues before and after work commenced, ending up with engine failure. Also once the car was finally returned a number of components were missing and found to be on other people's vehicles, these had been removed without permission and either given or sold on for profit without consent. Not a great review I know but I believe in honesty, good and bad. I know this is in the hands of the lawyers and regarding missing items, the police.

Why would you take your Audi anywhere else? Apart from the high level of skill, they are trustworthy to a fault. I haven't bothered going elsewhere for the past 10 years and never once regretted that decision.

QST maintained my RS4 to the highest standards. Audi main dealer had diagnosed a £7k new gearbox, took it to these guys and they solved problem for £170. Standards of work and honesty speak for themselves at this place. Wouldn't entertain taking my Audi anywhere else. Highly recommended.

I found QST by chance after getting quotes for servicing from Audi centres. I’m so glad I did, because instead of Audi Privileged pricing, I got the same if not better from Kim Collins at a fraction of the price with all original parts. Kim has always worked around you not a diary like big corporate companies, so you don’t have to take time of from work. I have been going back to QST for many years now, & wouldn’t use anyone else. I have had cars remapped & all the checks beforehand have taken place with QST. & wow what a difference it makes from the bog standard car with one of their tuning maps. Not only in performance & smoothness from the car, but you get far more miles to the gallon from the car. Basically if you get a remap you’re buying the next Audi model with the fraction of the price. As we all know that’s all Audi do when bringing out the next generation model! & charge you thousands. Thank you Kim for such a personal touch & honest pricing.

When choosing the tuner That i wanted to look after all aspects from tuning to general matinance my main concern was that they actually cared ! and weren’t there just to take my money . The service and professional service that I’ve received at QST has just been oustanding from the start . There knowledge is also 1st rate too, plus the smaller things like staying late for you to collect your car etc plus not charging for things you don’t actually need unlike some other garages that just want your cash. All in all I’m very happy with how they have turned my RS6 into the monster it is today , with over 10k miles now done and 750 bhp , it hasn’t missed a beat . What more can I say.. Thanks to Kim & Alex.

We've been taking our cars to QST ever since I bought my Audi over 8 years ago and would never take them anywhere else. For any type of minor / major issue you get a full honest appraisal and know the work is to a superb standard. I cannot recommend QST highly enough and all the staff are fantastic which just adds to brilliant service.

QST are a very professional, knowledgeable and trustworthy outfit. As soon as I spoke to Kim for the first time on the phone I thought 'this guys knows what he's on about!' I have been to QST twice now, for a remap and some remedial prior to remapping and then secondly to have a new clutch fitted. As a business owner myself in the service industry I am very particular about customer service (I have over 250 independent reviews) and I can say they operate at a very high level. I come here from London and they work very hard, often through complications to get the car back to me in the expected timeframe. Highly Recommended.

Recommended by a friend, I now recommended QS Tuning to everyone I know! Shocked by my local Audi franchises service prices I spoke to QS Tuning, they could do the same service, for less, using Audi parts and maintain the service history on my car. As a result me and my wife now use them for servicing of her diesel A1 and my S1 and neither of us will be going back to the franchised dealer. Kim and Alex also diagnosed an issue with my car and fixed it one night after work for me. The customer service these guys show is amazing and far exceeds my previous main dealer experiences with two different makes of car. Two weeks ago QS Tuning undertook the service and APR remap on my car. I'd previously discussed what was required with Kim and Alex and was confident they would do what was required for the quoted price - they did both! My car is now transformed and it's going back next week to have the clutch replaced (common issue with my car and a weak OEM clutch) with a Sachs Organic clutch. I'd happily drive further to have my car looked after by QS Tuning, clear advice, a knowledgeable team and excellent customer service. Just leave your credit card at home - they sell way too many nice bits for cars there!!!!!

Please read all of this! Kim, Alex, Mike and the team have been nothing but exceptional! Our journey with QST started when we had been let down by another tuner, the car (TTRS) felt as if it wasn't running the power it was quoted. I happened to be working in Lindfield and found QST. I asked Kim to diagnose it, we were right and the car was only just over stock! Happy to say its now running APR software and drives great. Since then we have had all our service work on both vehicles done here even though its over an hours drive from Kent! They've fitted full Bilstein coilovers on my T5.1 and that's mapped now. Our TTRS has KW Coilovers fitted too. Our real trouble started on a trip through Europe (1650miles) thankfully on our way back in France the car developed a fault. Misfiring badly and then cut out, our diagnostic software said fuel sensor, fuel pump and injector faults etc etc Every hour or so the car would start and run but needed constant high revs.We got it back to Folkestone through sheer luck and determination. When Mike looked at the car the same faults were evident, so a series of parts were fitted to eliminate the fault. I know they spent hours stripping out interior to get to sensors, pumps etc! Culprit..... Fuel filter by the tank, a non serviceable part according to Audi! A faulty fuel filter that was found through sheer determination and true mechanical knowledge! Charged.... a couple of hours! To anyone who's written a bad review you're a misguided foul! To one of you in particular you're a liar and have done this to many a company! And a foot note.... They have the TT as i write this, i know they'll do the work as described, won't charge me more than quoted and it'll be done correctly. Thanks Kim, Alex, Mike and team

It's actually a few years since my terrible QST experience but it still haunts me. Where do I start, I dropped my RS2 off requesting that any items outside of the pre-agreed list should be run past me before they went ahead and did the work. Which didn't happen, so I ended up forking out for a couple of very expensive suspension wishbones that I didn't really need, only to then discover that whilst they were being changed the lower ball joints were not tightened up, which I found out whilst travelling around the M25 at 70mph. I happened to have a wrench in the car the right size so tightened them up on the hard shoulder. Apparently "sometimes they do this" which is rubbish, QST forgot to do them up, once I had put a wrench on them I drove 500 odd miles without this happening, before returning to the. This is little wonder as when I returned having driven 85 miles out of my way to have the tracking re-aligned the owners teenage son was entrusted with the straightening of my steering wheel which unsurprisingly was not done very well. I thought all was well until I discovered the passenger footwells (front and rear) of my car were swimming with water, only to discover that whilst QST had been working on the ECU they had neglected to plug the drain hose back onto the aircon evaporator drip tray. Whilst I was offered "a discount on my next service", which given my experience I was unlikely to take them up on, there was no offer of an apology nor of any money back. All in all, a shocking experience of very amateur back street garage pirates, don't get talked into it, these guys are over priced and not worth wasting your time and money with.
