painfull or what...

Bill phone me back to say that he phoned the guy and all is sorted. The End

I just spoke to greers and Bill is very unhappy about this miss understanding matter. As i said there is always 2 side to every story. This is what Bill said to me this afternoon. The guy supply the bits that was needed and the headers was all completed wrapped including over the lambda boss on which Bill didn't know it was there as it was underneath the wrapping.Once everything was fitted Bill thought the leak was coming from the gasket at the join between the headers and up pipe.He even told the guy about this and the guy put his hand up there to feel for himself.So Bill told him to get a new gasket.He couldn't get one from Nobles but one was available ay S&S.He paid for it over the phone with S&S and Jason went to collect it. So the new gasket was fitted and the blow was still there!!!Upon further looking Bill then and only found out that the leak was coming from the lambda boss which was now partially showing.Bill then got a old lambda and fitted it....Job done. Bill never charged the guy for the second day's work and collecting the part from S&S and the old lambda......how fair is Bill towards this guy. Plus Bill didn't charge him for the 8 hours that they worked on the car and only charged him the quoted 4/5 hour price. BTW The car didn't leave Greersport with the lambda unplugged as it was fitted on to the bend at the down pipe just as i thought it would be. Bill is phoning this guy now and to sort out what misunderstanding there maybe. Like i said there is always 2 side to every story.

nice scooby m8

Oh no the dreaded ebay again....... Do it right and buy the right things from a reputable is what i'm saying. Hope you get it sort Alan.....Meercat is only down the road you know.

It's mad in here but i like it[]

I for one have seen the stated car getting work done at Greers that day..It's a Black STI8 Type Uk...if i am correct. I don't know who fitted his mud flaps but it's been fitted wrong...the metal bracket is supposed to be behind/in front of the flaps and not sandwiched between the body work and the flaps.Did he relised that????I DON'T THINKS SO. I am not defending Greers here but i am telling yous what i saw. 1.The wrapped and ported headers was laying on the garage floor under the car.It was all in pieces as they are when it's been taken apart.I had a right good look at them to see what porting has been done and thought to my self that it wasn't worth the £..... as Bill has ported/fitted original headers but not wrapped on G.Mac's car for alot and i mean ALOT LESS. 2.Then i noticed that on the collector pipe(where 4 pipes goes into one) it was COMPLETED wrapped and that there was no lambda sensor boss on it.So i asked Bill why this was as i knew there should have been one as i have a newage car?He said these ported headers may have came off an classic and the lambda was on the start of the downpipe on a classic..I thought ok then as i didn't know. 3.The ported/wrapped up pipe that was there was a new up pipe and not a ported original as it was a slip joint affair.It also have a egt boss which a newage STI don't have but Alan just blocked it off.Why was he sent an up pipe for a WRX and not a STI? I have a Magnex slip joint up pipe with no egt boss...so they do make them. 4.He also had a Full decat fitted by Greersport aswell from Scooby world(i think)..upon opening the packaging for the decat downpipe and decat centre section Bill said that they did not supply a fitting kit(gasket) with the exhaust.The start of this downpipe had a lambda boss on it as well as the decat center pipe.I thought this was strange as the lambda/o2 sensor on newage STI should be on the/infront of the center cat and not on the downpipe. 5.I asked Alan/Bill where is the lambda from the header was going to go?.They said that they will put it on the downpipe where there is a spare lambda boss.OK i thought as classic has that set up which i have just learnt. So maybe the lambda wiring wasn't long enough to stretch to the downpipe from the headers and that was the reason for not being able to fit the lambda.I don't know why but i will ask Bill about this when i see him next time when i'mgetting my new turbo fitted[] At this point i had to leave to go back to my work so i did'nt see the finished job as i would liked to been there to hear what the Scoobyword Afterburner sound like. Sometimes it's not the garage fault if the stuff brought in for fitting it's not complete with all the stuff that it's needed to fit it.I have done this myself in the past. So my point is that there is aways 2 side to every story and that you do need to be there to see for yourself what the script was. Also the guy said he had to wait for 8 hours in the garage.....i don't think so as he disappeared in a Black Skoda Fabia VRS as i wanted to speak to him about the mud flaps.I do speak to alot of scooby owners when i'm down there and try to promote SIDC too. If he was that unhappy......did he gave them the chance to sort the problem out? Rant over and i'm sorry if it's the wrong car that i am thinking of.
