[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 482795, member: 17152"] This is exactly my point, I remember our local village garage, the old boy who owned it sold out to this other bloke. Now the old boy couldn’t do enough for you and quite often he’d advise against having something done until it needed it. However this new guy well, wife’s car goes in for a service - I just didn’t have any time doing 7 days a week at the time - so she comes to collect the car and the £90 had gone up by another £50 or so, reason being he thought the pads needed changing so changed them, I politely told him he ought not interfere with that which he has not been instructed to do and please remove said new pads and replace with old ones, ‘ah but that’d be a waste of my guys time’ shame you had too learn the hard way then I replied. Anyhow after many excuses he gave us the new pads for nothing as the old ones were greased up and no longer any good. Mind he never made the same mistake again! [/QUOTE]
