Clive Posted yesterday at 09:10 Share Posted yesterday at 09:10 4 hours ago, MooN said: I’m lucky, I have a fully equipped workshop and lifts etc at work so i do most stuff there during lunch time, i also have tame mechanics who will do the more complicated stuff for a pack of beer or a bottle of wine… This car is a hybrid monstrosity and still under garantee, ( though i replacesd the tyres at work) so its all done at the dealers, but i wouldnt pay thos prices otherwise. I do most of the jobs on the car, well the ones that my facilities allow, it is the work that may need doing underneath the car that I cannot manage, then it is off to the garage, like the new rear axle that is needed before the next MOT.... a garage job, with garage prices.

Clive Posted yesterday at 15:20 Share Posted yesterday at 15:20 There is Daelim 250 on Marketplace, similar mileage to mine, same colour too, and in a generally same condition, he wants twice as much as I am going to put mine up for, it should make mine look like a bargain... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway Ian something is just not adding up...get call Tuesday....bike is ready...by the end of the conversation the service guy says out of the blue...how's your clutch working..found it a little odd...I tell him fine..a little hard at time to find neutral but no complaints on my end...forgot to ask if they did something with the sending unit...so I called the next day to ask if that gauge was sorted out..some guy with a heavy accent tells me my bike isn't ready and we should have the parts by Oct the 15...he couldn't tell me what other parts were missing...so I ask if the service manager could call back Wednesday...wich he never did by the way...I call this morning...finally was able to talk to someone...he tells me we're waiting for forks seals...lol...I was starting to loose on the other end...lol...had to tell me bike was already in for that repair...oh ! oh ! He says...we're waiting for a gasket for the sending unit....original work order had the water seal and gaz gauge..3 weeks ago they have the bike....what Im thinking they fuck up something during the water seal replacement..im not a 100% sure but I think the clutch has to come off for the job...I think they fucked up...and everyone is covering there arses....?
