Not one to call out anyone else’s shortcomings as we all get it wrong from or mess something up, aslong as you have a moral compass and some integrity but this just takes the mick!

Our newly acquired customer was away on holiday when they experienced a loss of power in their took it to a local garage that called up the turbo, which is fine however I’m pretty sure everyone in the trade can guess why the turbo has gone?

There’s a 90% chance it’s the that’s broken up blocking the oil feed for the turbo, but granted we wasn’t there for the conversation so can’t comment and as previously said we all get it wrong from time time.

But to charge a customer ÂŁ1300 quid for probably the cheapest turbo on the market, not replace the basics like the air filter, oil feed pipe let alone atleast checking it has oil flowing through it and to then leave bolts missing, clips not put back on vacuum lines is just down right wrong, and is the literal reason why people have issues trusting and

And to clarify this vehicle did no more than 50 miles before it lost power again!

Safe to say we have presented all this Information in the hope the garage will consider a refund and we will happily package and post this glorified paper weight of a back to them!

booked in for a timing belt inspection, and no AC. This vehicle is still outside of the replacement interval, however sometimes it’s better to be safe than sorry!

Minimal debris in the oil pick up, belt still measures within spec so we have recommend a check at next service interval.

Moving onto inoperative AC- we found there to be zero gas In the system, wouldn’t hold a vacuum so out with the nitrogen it is, quickly identified the issue as a chaffed pipe! Which u fortunately is on back order……

For all your vehicle needs please do get In touch for a zero pressure transparent environment!

#2022 transit custom, recovered to us by another mechanics outfit, who suspected they had used the wrong oil 2 years ago! 10/10 for honesty!

However it’s very hard to confirm as it’s also only had 1 service in its 42k miles, it’s also evident that this van does considerable idle time in traffic being a van.

Excessive regenerations can severely deteriorate your oil which as we all know on a vehicle that has a belt in oil the oil is super important!

Massive stack of parts on this but luckily no head removal required, a serious clean up, all oil galleries and feeds checked, buttoned up with a whole host of parts getting this van back in the road!
