So went to get it. waited 30mins or so for them to tell me if it's a reset or more..

guess what, u hit the nail on the head. cambelt is a tooth or so out... they even said they took it for a test drive...

spoke to the service manager... again... all he could say it they marked and checked it and even asked him to look so they don't know how its out, blah blah.. even asked if vwr had changed trimming or nething??? wtf??

only thing i get in the way of apology or goodwill was a "sorry", f'ing joke

Oh right, did they use new stretch bolts in the engine mounts like they are supposed to?

don't even go there. i highly doubt it! but id rather not even know to ask...

if they don't offer me anything by the time i go collect the car then i will say myself how disappointed i am they havnt even had the curtsey to offer me some sort of compensation, so i want to know what they are going to do.. and no i don't want a free service (i have a plan)

Oh it gets better!

The guy who worked on my car is not in today.... they want him to work on it, no one else??? so they want to keep it till Monday!!!!! I said surely your engineers have the experience to do the job not just one guy but as THIS guy did it, they want HIM to do it again!?!?!?

pending call from service manager
