Not giving you TC price when you have a TC cars is pants Tunnie....ok not all dealers accept TC card...so should find another dealer that does.....luckily my local one does  ;) .....i have two dealers near me ....both the same dealer....both accept TC card but only the nearest one gives me trade discount if parts not on TC discount.....

ie today paid for ....breather gasket....60p retail....51p trade
sealing compound......£5.35 retail.....£4.82 trade
O rings 18p each.....10 for £1.60 trade
cam gasket....£14.55.....£12.38 trade
Torx bolt ...32p .....28p trade

These were not TC prices as TC prices dont apply to these parts

Local nearest dealer didnt have the torx bolt in stock.....but other dealer did.....the one that lied to me  >:(.....so i paid the nearest the dealer 28p for it......then drove 3 miles to the other dealer to pick the bolt up.....great satisfaction in not giving the lying dealer the extra 4p!!!  ;D

The satisfaction gained more than makes up for the extra petrol/diesel used!  ;)

No, not for oil, you stick them to the engine/wing etc and put bolts in them as you remvoe them....dont loose them then!

Sounds useful, i already lost one of the covers for the wipers nuts, when removing the scuttle once.
