Service Due
« on: 19 January 2009, 02:14:17 »
Hi,

I live in Leicester and the service is due on my omega.  I don't want to take it to a dealer as they do not provide a very good service, does anyone know somewhere close by that they could reccomend as i need a few extra things doing as well.

Thanks,

Dino

There may even be members in your area who could come along and help.

Am sure i can do the basics myself but i need someone who knows what they are doing, and cares, to have a look at the front suspension, track rod ends, wheel bearings, all bushes and linkages as i get a slight wobble at various speeds and it's annoying the Sh*t out of me.  I am totally unable to cure and i don't want to spend money on new wishbones if the camber needs setting ect ect.  Any idea's?

Hi Dino. I used to use formula 1 on viking street wigston. good bunch of lads. 0116 2884877. Since i joined OOF i do most of it myself. they did offer to fit parts supplied by me. Just had my MOT done by  them and they did mention a wishbone bush being a bit worn. Offered to fit them for me for 50 quid a side if i supply them. so i bet you could talk to them about other parts/ fitting.
