Sigh. Yes, I am footing the bill
Yes, I think they broke it. And I dunno why they were mucking about with it in the first place. Jules, my rad fan is u/s. Would you recommend a replacement OE item or a Kenlowe? I'll order one from you if you can deliver directly to the garage? Cheers |

Both types reliable Rob but................
Kenlowe is only recommended for DIYers as it takes half to and hour longer to fit than the MGR motor, which cancels out the £45 cheaper price for it if a Garage is fitting it!!

injectors
ROB, do not let the garage tell you that you need new injectors, they can send the whole set to Lynx Diesels [email protected] and have them completely rebuilt and balanced for £330 all in.

Okay, thanks for that Jules - I'll go with the MGR item then. I'll drop you a line tomorrow when I get confirmation that the fan on the car is u/s

He charges me just about 100 quid a piece now as he's had to go VAT registered!

Rob.. As the garage did NOT get your permission to go ahead before removing the cylinder head, I think you have a good case for refusing to pay for that part of the work.
I also think it's pretty obvious that that garage does not have a mechanic that specialises in the 75 ZT diesel... (or any diesel for that matter).. However.. If you enter into a dispute, you may tie your car up untill an agreement is reached... ... Last edited by James.uk; 8th December 2010 at 16:32.. |
