my dealership ( closest to the city might i add !!!!) charges 95 per hour plus vat


the techs are not even close to well trained and fords are alot harder to work on

when i worked at volvo there techs had the EASIEST job as EVERYTHING on a volvo is found via there computer,,,,,,,, they just plug it in and there ya go

fords is trying to be like that but the pac's system aint as good


also everything on a volvo is a module, you ALWAYS have to buy software upgrades for everything,,,,, to turn off the day time running lights is 14 quid plus labour time

to change the window switches you have to buy software to program



THE FUCKING REAR VIEW MIRROR HAS SOFTWARE REQUIRED FOR WHEN THATS CHANGED TOO !!!!!



the techs at my place are really just fitters with 2 master techs who tbh are just arogant people who think they know everything,,,,,, but they just know what there told

the parts master tech at my place is the fucking NUTS, he remembers EVERYTHING and the techs ASK HIM when they cant sort a problem,,,, but hes been in the game for 20 years maybe more as i aint gota clue his age


hes also the most humble person alive who NEVER stops working,,,, hes not a quick worker but he just plods along and gets the job done THEN goes home

hence why he also closes up as he can work till 8pm doing stuff
