Very prompt - efficient and communicative. However, I’m not convinced the pre inspection check was thorough and although many boxes were ticked - compared to previous checks by AA and RAC not really impressed. I made a point of asking the mechanic to check the body work as I am converting the van to a day/camper van. Over the phone he told me it was fine other than some minor scuffs.
There are dents in the roof - a drilled hole in the dashboard - numerous scratches including two small dents one, one in the passenger door, and a crack on the rear of the near side mirror. I find it hard to believe a detailed 175 point check was done in the time given - although the van does appear mechanically sound - apart from the rear discs and pads that are worn and were highlighted.

If I was buying the van as a trader it might have been fine - but I feel the mechanic failed to fully understand my message prior to the check - in that the condition of the body work was important to me because of the intended purpose. An expensive hour!

This is the final communication I received from the mechanic, Velea, I received today. I raised a complaint with Click Mechanic over the service I received. I received no reply from anyone from Click Mechanic, but have had to listen to the mechanic whom I complained about sending me various justifications for his work.

My main concern is the poor attitude of Velea in minimalising the issue;

“Iwas paid for the starter replacement, not the diagnosis. I don't care how much the repair cost and how much you paid that
Quote for diagnosis if you are not sure what the problem is with the car. You said you are a nurse.
If I tell you that I have a headache, do you investigate or give me a headache pill? Please, let's not make a tragedy”.


Full text of final advice from Velea today;


“Take my advice as it is and stop drawing hasty conclusions. Thank you, Incodata, for your collaboration and I'm glad you solved your car. Next time, you know what to do.
Don't change parts like you read on Googlek

Reply from Velea:

you asked for the replacement of the starter that was already successfully completed. I will not post the messages you sent me because it would not be polite on my part because they are private messages. I understand that your car had other problems. because it is a review I want to say it here so that everyone knows what to do. not to fix by guesswork and then accuse a mechanic. if you do not know what problems the car has, ask for a diagnosis, do not ask for a direct change of the part because that is what you saw on Google. the clickmechanic platform works this way. we operate what the customer asks for. if you said that your car does not start. we would come and find out what the problem is. but you asked for the replacement of the starter that was already done. after many messages with you struggling to explain to you where the request to change a part does not solve other problems. please ask for a diagnosis if you are not sure about the problem with your car. I have encountered this problem with other customers. I'm glad you asked for a diagnosis from another mechanic, that means you listened to my advice. In the future, you know what to do. As an idea, because the diagnosis is not free, some customers read on Google, draw a conclusion and replace parts because that's what they saw. You go to Google, but in reality, there can be many causes. Thank you for changing your review. You were affected because I said that you are a medical assistant and if a patient says he has a headache, you give him a headache pill, you don't do an analysis to see the cause. How can i have 4 stars at punctuality i arrived at job 15 minutes early😂😂at first you gave me 5 stars for quality. now one star😂😂 it wasn't the same job or did you change your mind after 10 days and a few messages anyway. thanks! and I understand all people. I hope those who read will understand something too. have a wonderful day Read more
