Totally agree with u there. No Offends ppl but recently i took my is200 sport to Formula1 for cam belt changed and was advised to changed the water pump "as standard" was total under £500.... Amazingly it took them 4 days to figure out what bolt to another as i heard them whisper "did you put the bolt on the side" where the rest of it"... next day when i call they say "received a wrong parts" had to wait for replacement ...late that afternoon... they received the parts BUT the bolt stuck and need to call their "specialist" to check it with "tools" to get the bolt out.... they don't bother as they keep saying "we will call you as soon it's ready"..... early the 4th day i call "oh, it's nearly ready now just need to put tight up everything..... still no call, eventually the car was park out the car park when i arrived.
that really worries me and i open up the bonnet and discover the radiator was all loose ...water pump pully cap was missing. engine start without any noise.....i say nothing just pay up and straight to another garage to had it check.
lucky there's nothing serious bout it just that the job done was totally s**t.. NEVER EVER GO BACK AGAIN .
as for the pully cap ...managed to get one on ebay ....
Kwik-fit ... another cowboys as getting a Honda civic exhaust quote and a headlight bulb changed. the guy just stood there looking at me asking "how u set it up?" as he been looking and turning bulb as i stood beside him.
You never know what those cowboys did when you not there watching
