BEMW Castlehill ..

[GHaST]

I got bemw's to check over my car, and I thought he was ok.
Nice guy.

But then again, I had no work done to my car.

Can anyone recommend someone in the Caringbah/Tarren Point area? I've just started working down there, so can't really take the day off work to take it anywhere thats been recommended so far.

There's a place called M Power near work, anyone been there?

well here goes ..

i took my car there today...

got the oil service done .. they changed the oil allright.. but didnt re-set the lights..

Guy has scratched the front of my kit .. ( not overly annoyed as this was bound to happen )

but he must have scraped something on the rear bar aswell and took quite a fair swipe of pint off it ..

somehow i failed inspection for a pink slip .. some of the things listed are absolutely stupid.. if i took the car anywhere else i would have passed with flying colours..

..

anybody else had problems with this guy before ...

should i ring up and complain ?? let him know im not satisfied with the treatment recieved .. ??

Not quite sure what the statute of limitations is for replies to old threads but I just stumbled upon this thread while searching for something else & felt compelled to reply.

Yes Matt E30 you should have contacted us & complained especially if you intend to make allegations towards my company in a public forum like this. Had we damaged your body work we would have fixed it! Being so long ago now I can't honestly remember even what your car looked like, however I do have a copy of the invoice & jobcard from your visit though.

The reason your service indicator was not reset is because it doesn't work! Clearly written on the bottom of your invoice along with all the other faults we noted.

The reasons your car failed the registration test are;

1.The O/S/R tyre was worn below the legal limit
2.The N/S/F lower control arm bush was torn
3.The front shock absorbers were completely worn out.
4.There was advanced rust on the N/S "A" Pillar.
I don't see how you can claim your car would have passed elsewhere with flying colours?

So next time you are not happy with your service call the people involved & let them know especially if they have damaged your property in some way, I'll admit that customers cars have been accidently damaged in my workshop but we have always owned up & paid up! And make sure you post all the facts before you make allegations about someone.
