Your Day Today!

Blowing a gale here but at least it is dry, I have the back end of the bike in bits at the moment fitting my latest accessory, so all things being equal that will be done today and tomorrow afternoon looks like good riding weather.

@Saul are the bruises developing nicely?!

It’s not that bad actually, I think I may have cried wolf 🤣  
Bloody back is still aching where I landed on my arse.

Tis always the back that gets it on steps. Hope it recovers soon. 

I’m in the middle of journeying through the ‘Petes got a cold’ saga and have reached the heady point of coughing if I lie down but not if I sit upright. I’m hoping to exit this trajectory before reaching the backache, sore ribs and a hernia low 😆

So the clutch has gone on the 2019 Ford Transit Connect. A grand to replace. Apparently a common fault on the Connect. Great. 

A grand? What you say @Catteeclan?

If it’s dual mass would cost a bit more … but a grand sounds enough money 

 

at least dick Turpin had the decency to wear a mask

Is that main dealer price? Probably half that with an independent, couple of hundred if you do it yourself.

So how did you catch them out?

I put an old air filter (dirty) back in before I took it for service, they didn't replace it of course , plus they didn't do the valve clearances.  I took the filter cover off in their yard and then get the service receptionist back out to take a look.  She was suitably embarrassed and got the workshop manager out to have a look. 

He offered to take it back in and do it , I refused to let them near it again and for him to supply me with an air filter and I would do it myself.  He refused so I told him what I thought of their shitty service , not once did any of them apologise .
