Here's an easy way to remember. If anyone says they fit an altea, avoid them coz there the wrong ones.

Haha!!

They didn't argue it this morning when I went back.  Obviously they blamed their supplier and said they should be able to get them swapped over tomorrow!  It hasn't annoyed me or anything its just a bit of an inconvenience but they are lending me a GTI DSG with a remap for a day while they do it. (I'm not sure if this is much of a favour the loan car is to me as it will cost me £400 in a remap soon!)

Thanks for the help all!

Seems like a decent garage If they are admitting fault and offering to fix it, most places would deny any liability and charge you for the pleasure of changing them again.

I have more respect for someone that can admit when they are wrong rather than denying they are wrong

a happy ending!! 

They sorted it out the next day, although they should have spotted the problem themselves was good that they sorted it so quickly!

I'm really impressed so far.  It rides just like normal and seems stiffer when really pushed.
