Hi. I do not often have work done in a garge, I think the only time I have is when I have gone back for retest after a failer on the mot. They tend to find somthing that cost just about the same as it would if you take the car away and then have to pay for another mot. I trust them not, Was it a reputable garage or a back street one. those back strret garages can sometime look ok but they can be full of idiots. cars these days are so cmplicated you can not learn by experiance alone.
Well, when you have work done you should make shore that they are shore that when you pick the car up it will be working at the price they quote.
I my self would not have payed out to have the car done. and from what you have said I definatly would not pay them one peny. If they do keep on after the cash go and demand to know where they took it and then if they tell you that go and check with ford, I recon they are blagging you, I think you will not hear from them again.
I love my diesel motors, I have two old combi escorts and I can do every thing and any thing with them/to them, but when it comes to even their simple fuel pump and injectors Well we are at their mercy ar'nt we?
Wish you luck with it, but for me it sounds like your luck comes from the same place as mine,,,, Hell, Cheers pete
