Alistair did exactly as he said. He turned up in the time slot allocated and did exactly what was described in my booking. The Communication was great and I knew exactly what was planned and when. I am very happy with the service I received and I'm looking forward to a few years without problems.

The work carried out was great but not the other services which were offered.

Reply from Alastair:

Hi, sorry you feel you have not received the best service possible, just to clarify, we drain the oil from the gearbox on removal and if it appears old and dirty we always advise replacing it and this is one fluid that does get regularly missed during routine servicing, if you declined replacement we will put your old oil back in the gearbox and top it up if necessary, this is part of the job when we put it back together. In regards to your clutch cable, we can visually inspect it and it may look fine but cant tell if it is stretched until it is fitted and the operation is checked, unfortunately your cable was stretched due to your clutch failing and being extremely heavy to operate, again we cant tell this until it is refitted, hope this explains everything for you but if you do need any more assistance then feel free to give us a call.

I am very happy with the service Alastair provided. He called a few hours before the scheduled appointment and asked if he can collect my car earlier, which meant that he was able to finish the work on the same day. I am really grateful for the great work, thank you.
