No work was carried out, he was unable to identify or fix so a waste of money

Reply from Robert:

Hello Rachel,

I’m sorry to hear that you’re not satisfied with the work carried out.

During my visit, I performed a pressure test on the cooling system, which did not reveal any active leaks at the time. Based on this, I concluded that the leak may only occur under certain conditions. In your case, it is likely happening when the engine is cold and warming up. On the day of my visit, I did note that the engine was already warm.

On your vehicle, there is a metal coolant jacket connected to a plastic fitting. This is a known area where leaks can develop, as the metal expands and contracts with temperature changes, which can affect the seal with the plastic component.


As no leak was detected during the pressure test, I proceeded to jack the vehicle up and carry out a full inspection of the cooling system. Following this, I provided a quotation to rectify the fault.

Kind regards,
Robert

Arrived as scheduled and worked through the job at the agreed price despite it being a tough job due to the age of the car. Would use again.

Gotta be honest. Charged me 110 quid to change a light bulb. Said he tried to check some stuff ie in the process of changing said light bulb he checked a connection. I left detailed description of issue. Needed a diagnostic and fix but got a light bulb swap. If he refunded me half the price maybe I’d be less p*ssed off. Was here about 30 min probably all in. And the issue has now returned once again 3 months later. All felt very rushed and not considerate for 110 quid. Garbage tbh

Robert was very approachable and spent time with my son to show him what he was doing on his car. The problem was easily fixed and not the coolant leak we had feared - very happy with service and will definitely use again
