had a complaint at work today
« on: October 26, 2012, 10:19:11 pm »
had a customer in today with a Bmw m5 that had a puncture on is rear tyre which was a 255-30-19 bridgestone run flat tyre on it..I explained to the customer i can fix the puncture but it will take longer than the normal 20 minutes or so as it is a run flat tyre as they are pigs to get of the rim and more importantly i didn't want to scratch is alloy..Got the job done in 30 minutes and got the customer to look at is alloy to show there was no damage to it-- i thought he was happy with the job but he complaint to my boss saying it took to long :fighting:

200 miles:( so is it possible to remove a tyre without touching the face of the wheel. My fitter says not so had to cover face with a cloth and tape up edge last time to protect it. Dreading next tyre change

Andy, just be thankful that you're not like him!  The attitude of some people makes me  :sick:  You can go home knowing you've done a decent job, he can go home thinking that he's the clever one. :stupid:

Keep up the good work!  :happy2:

it is possible yes but all depends on what tyre machine he is using--i use a hydraulic one where the arm doesn;t move

cheers mate--i am really really fussy with alloys--i treet every alloy as if it was on my car and take my time on them--even if it means 10 minutes longer
