Moreover I was hoping to have a few dings removed by them and while they were at it I wanted the passenger side mirror base repaired under the corrosion warranty. I was left feeling as if they had no interest in repairing the mirror.tmaher wrote:Paul Miller in Wayne, NJ
Sometimes it's worth the drive. I used to drive an hour each way for Tim to assist on my car. Peace of mind is a beautiful thing!tmaher wrote: I appreciate your offer. Hopefully I'll be able to work through this myself, I just wish you were a little closer or I'd be there already..
With regards to the clutch...tmaher wrote:Great! I'll try both ShadeTree and Haven Motors, they're much closer.
One of the things that really annoyed me yesterday at the dealership was when I inquired about the Inspection I for the car, they stated it was $600 and required replacement of the micron cabin filter (uh, no it doesn't - this car has none) - Then they stated there was a valve adjustment where they "shimmed the valves". And finally, when I inquired about the throw-out bearing and clutch replacement I was told the parts, "double-clutch, flywheel and throw-out bearing" would be $900 is parts alone - Now, I understand getting raped on the labor at a dealership, but I can get those same OEM parts for $336. And, yeah. It's not a double-clutch setup so, I've lost all faith in these guys. They were either incompetent or simply trying to rip me off, either way the outcome is, no business for them.
