ABS Trade Club
« on: 19 March 2007, 16:58:21 »

Got my autobahnstormers membership card, TC number on the back, thought great - off to vx...

They've made me fill in a form, and where the TC number space is I've put in the ABS one.  Is this normal?  Do I get an actual trade club card and setup on local dealers computer by doing all this lot?

Cheers in advance,

Chris.

you should not have to apply for the Vauxhall TC.... you should just be able to buy parts at TC prices...

the ABS have "trade club status" therefore being a member there you should get parts at trade club prices.

No, your yellow ABS card is your TC card.

Mine took a week to arrive. First time I went to VX they took the card off me, typed in Autobahnstormers and said this is registered to someone down south.  That would be because thats where the club is based....     I presume this is so they can keep track of card abuse ??

as previously said your yellow card is your TC card   On the back should be a sticker with the Trade club number on it and a membership no and your signature. you shouldn't have to fill in any more forms, I didn't   :)

Rembering that my dealer is the very same dealer that:

1.) Couldn't order the right bolt over the phone for my aux tensioner, then couldn't order the right one when I went in, and could only do it correctly when I took control of their computer.

2.) Thinks there are only 2 cam cover gaskets on a V6, even after I specifically told them that there are FOUR bits of rubber in total, and thats what I need

3.) Thinks that a V6 Omega only needs 4 litres of oil for an oil change

4.) Only responds to ape like noises and the promise of some bananas

I'll go back down again and try and sort it tomorrow..
