hearing both sides of the story 1st would be better...imo

Since Rich left i don't know who works at reception

 

I do like the way one bloke on there suggest that if they cant fix the car you shouldn't have to pay a penny for the time they spent trying ti sort the problem

What planet is he from? The rent and electric still needs to be paid weather they fix 1 car or 100 cars

And as for SCC having a bad rep??? WTF?!?!?!??! Best for miles round here

 

im good mates with steve who works there , so dont take offence steve ....but if someone takes a car in somewhere and it comes out running worse then they should not charge a penny , thats the way i see it

as said above lets hear both sides of the story please

 

thats the only reason i put this up - to get both sides of story & hopefully sort it out quickly.

its never good if someone is slating a tuner and they never get to read it & cant respond!

 

yes true they are a good bunch of guys down at scc and if there is a problem it should always be sorted out with the company first before public slating commences

btw , no one fiestaturbo can spell

 

Listen Ferrari scum bag

I would be pissed off if i took mine to a garage and they said they knew what the problem was and could fix it but after paying the bill finding out that its no better off...

On the other hand if I handed over the car not knowing what the problem was, and the garage also probably didn't know and said they would try a few things but couldn't reslove the problem, I would expect to pay for there time.

 

i will not respond to you dan because of your first comment

 

i second that

but then i never take my car to a garage, and pay the 50+vat rates garages charge, i'd rather do everythng i possible can then just get the fueling and mapping sorted

 

I get too stressed and just cant be arsed lol Changing plugs / leads and adding water is about all i can be bothered with nowadays lol

 

well you must earn to much money then


more satisfaction doing it myself

 

Dan.....you forget what happened to me!!!!!!

 

yer. you opened your bonnet. touched something and had to get scc to fix it

 

As the guy who owns says it now runs better than before...... but still has the annoying miss/over boost/ign cut.....

Like DanS says noone works for free....

Steve

 

time is money!

 

Swerv,

If only it was so simple.

Until you are on the other side of the counter, you wont appreciate just how it can be sometimes.

One car for example...............

High spec, high boost RS Turbo, and it's pinking. After repeatedly asking the guy whether he used Super Unleaded, and him saying yes, we had to turn the boost down to cure the pinking. Goes away slightly unhappy, and then mentions in passing that the pump he filled up with on the way here might have been normal crap unleaded from Sainsburys cos that's what he was told by his mate.

works both ways, and there's nearly ALWAYS two sides..............

 

or when you bring in a car with a perfectly good bonnet catch.... and let pon lose on it for 10 seconds.....



Its still fooked btw lol

 

half the time its people that do not under stand how turbo cars works imo !! and the basic runnings of a car

 

Fook off!

I paid for a new one

Wasn't my fault anyway - something to do with your shonky bad boy bonnet

 

The biggest problem when a car has....

1. Missfire
2. Overboost problem
3. Cutting out etc

is that it's not always the first thing you come across, sometimes you have to start back at basics and if you arn't told the FULL stury you can be there for hours and why if I spend 5 hours trying to fix a car can i not charge 5 hrs labour after all it took me 5 hrs to fix it???

1 example....... guy comes in with an intermitant fuel pump problem (don't worry Keith its not you) took hrs to find the problem and when we tell the customer the problem he says i know what caused that..... his mate had been fitting rear speakers and when putting a trim panel back put the screw straight thru the loom. Had he have told us that the problem started since stereo fitment in the first place we would have fouind problem in 5 minutes

 

not an easy job by any means!

i have a mate who is a really good mechanic and he's looked into entering the tuning world. he says mechanicing gives brilliant job satisfaction but the BIG downside of being a tuner is the customer service you have to provide! just not worth the hassle and i agree!

 

Tell him not to bother mate.......

 

 

As soon as a garage looks at a car, they want paying....?
If they get their hands dirty they want paying more....?

Damm cheeky if you ask me... what's the world coming to?

 

If you call the gas man, plumber, electrician what do they do it for free?????

I'd rather do nothing than do it for free, that way my tools don't get worn out.....lol

 

Good point....

I had a heating problem last winter, called out a heating engineer - Ł40 call out fee, he was here 15mins and told me i needed a new boiler

 

sorry but that guy needs a banana in the tail pipe do to him


he works at a garage yet his mechanics cant find the problem, hes also changed his tune and dont wanna talk about it

i recon rob and co should send him to there closest rivals at PTS, let them findnthe problem
