dodgy blokes
« on: 06 May 2009, 13:12:41 »
i have a mate who has recently done filters & oil changes for me. iv,e used to wonder why the dipstick always showed overfilled. his receipts were for pattern filters (which i didn,t mind) i recently did the work myself and i had a struggle getting the fuel and oil filters off. my shock & horror when i managed it was they were genuine vx filters. they to my recollection were done 14k ago by a guy that retired.
did the pc test & found fc  44 .. it looks as if iv,e been shafted.   >:( >:( there are some tw*ts about

Sorry to hear that Ray, there are some real thieving cowboys out and about, If I can't do it myself then I'd get one of the regular guys off here (James or Pete/Daz) to do it for me as I wouldn't trust my car with anyone else frankly :y
