He opened some parts from engine and gone to buy the part but didn't turn up and I noticed he broken the engine cover try to put it back by force ,this happened yesterday still no sign of him it was better to he take the money and not to touch the car at all
Reply from Andy:
This is very unfair response to not getting a free repair!!! you were told what the repairs were needed as it was only a diagnostics inspection the parts needed would need to come from bmw directly I told you I might be able to get the parts from my supplier if so I would give you a call and let you know how much.
I showed you that your engine cover was broken before I started

Great stuff from Andy. Could've come even earlier if I'd been home in time, diagnosed the problem, explained and showed me what it was. Top fella, very much recommended!

Andy was punctual and explained what he had done. I have only given 3 stars for quality as he did not have the correct size oring and fitted a smaller one underneath the original one. Time will tell on how long it will last.

Happy with work done
Very helpful advice
Hopefully won't need to but happy to call him again if required 😌
a VW/Audi dealership in High Wycombe for 3 years. I moved to work in a local village garage for 4 years as I wanted to work on different makes & models. I moved to a few other local garages to gain more experience & again work on further makes & models so I had a more rounded experience and skill set. In 2010 I took a backseat role in mechanics to help my wife set-up our own business in a completely different industry.
In 2018 I came back to my passion mechanics! I set-up my own mobile mechanic business trading as Instone Mobile Mechanic. With all my experience I cater for all makes/models and will take on any repair. Read more
