Chris_GlanzaV98 replied to Chris_GlanzaV98's topic in Lifestyle General
cheers Rbz i am gutted to say the least, there is always light at the end of the tunnel right enough but its dimming a little each time i take a hit like this parts and build is under warrenty but like you said i shouldnt have to pay anything because i shouldnt have even accounted for this as nothing should have went wrong, it has and now it has to be sorted mate, although it doesnt state that they will bring the car back to them should any problems arise, i was told when i picked the car up and i quote " any problems atol please pick up the phone" it wasnt a case of just cheers cyah later again stressing i am in no way worried about aftercare in the sense when its fixed ill have a bill just the fact i cant afford to get it down there and in my eyes i shouldnt be paying for it, im sure the company and myself will sort the issue and this was in no way a dig at them purely to see what the script is with it all, and again i dont want to fall out with them even though i doubt it would come to that they are super nice guys and go the extra mile when i asked for things just not putting my hand in my pocket again unless its for petrol it wouldnt be as bad if it was fixed on the day and i could drive it down and back but ill have to leave it with them and train it home and back down which isnt cheap at the best of times. thanks for the comment though mate much appreciated ill let you know how i get on but im sure we will get it sorted. -

i know it is a tricky one and its nothing to do with the build just that ill be 400 quid out of pocket if i pay for it and tbh im not in a postiion to do that atm, the reason i went with the company is they are good guys and know what they are doing so i put my trust in them. -

i wouldnt like to have to spend money to prove anything as such and would hope/think the company in question would hold their hand up if it was a fault of theirs, and i am not trying to damage anyones rep, i have alot of time for the company/people who work there and have done me alot of favours but id rather know now before i pay for sending it down if its up to me or the garage to foot the bill, i would have hoped/though that after all the money spent a gesture of good will would be to bring the car down and drop it back off not offer 100 quid which would still leave me alot out of pocket. -

its not so much a complaint or having a go guys i just want to know should it be me or the garage that pays for delivery, like i mentioned i dont want to fall out with them over something stupid but i cant afford to have it picked up and want to known where i stand. yes i know that it is good of the garge to offer warrenty and stand by there work but if my above comments were read i have no doubt of the garage building a good car this could be purely bad luck, faulty part which have nothing to do with the garage/tuner -

HHAHA poker face, yeah he is some guy ! exactly mate i spent the money that was for the car on the car and then a bit more they are at fault thus far untill its stripped and they can say maybe a manufacture fault in which case isnt theres but they SHOULD be paying to take the car down, not good business . -

same grant im absoloutly appauled by this and would hate to fall out with the garage over this as they are nice guys just im not spending another penny on it unless its for fuel ! -
Recently had my car back from the tuner (wont say which one) where i spent more than £8500 in one sitting, car was running fine boosting as it should very strong and very fast after 2 - 2 and a half weeks i noticed a small puff of bluey/white smoke when stopped at the lights and now doing it when driving, speeding up, coming down the gears and at idle. We had a chat on the phone and i had previously had a boost leak and could not find it, it was then discovered being right at the back of an I/C pipe so i popped it back on and was told it may smoke for a little bit due to having the boost leak but it should clear, i though ok great should be fine, it didnt stop smoking and only got worse, I was then told to drive the car for another week and if it didnt stop they would get the car back in and then have it fixed although this is where the problem lies. I would have to pay to take it back to them train it home and then train it back down and drive it home, so i decided to have the car collected, last time i had the car collected from the same guy cost me £250 which was fair enough as i was sending the car to them, after asking if i would be helped out with the price of the pickup i was offered £100 which tbh is absoloutley nothing for the money i have recently spent on the car at their garage, i will also have to pay to have it dropped off as i work every second weekend and im not wasteing my weekend off going to collect it when it should be running absoloutley perfect, fair enough i chose the garage 3 hours from my home but I shouldnt have to pay to have it picked up when its faulty and it wasnt my fault. So where do i stand with this do i just pay it or do i fight my corner and argue that i shouldnt be paying to send the car to them as i paid them all that money to make the car perfect and it isnt through no fault of mine. Car is still under warrenty Also due to this problem i am missing scotlands biggest car show on sunday which i hoped my car would have been there for and missed loads of events due to delays with the car as it was with them for around 6 months, im shocked that someone with such a rep could not offer the delivery for free and 2 that the car has actually failed. Sad to say that after me not driving it for 10 months 4 out of the country and 6 in their possesion it just seems when i try to do things right it never works out for me always spending money on the best parts and garages and their are delays and faults, really feel like im loosing the love for the scene and i am honestly contemplating letting her go once she is fixed as im scared to drive her incase this keeps hapening its just not practical. thanks alot for any input guys it is most appreciated,Chris

Finally on my way down to Tuning Developments
Chris_GlanzaV98 replied to Chris_GlanzaV98's topic in Lifestyle General
ok lads here is a quick rundown of what has happened during this week when i was meant to start my build thread, my gf's grandad died so been busy being with her and helping out with their family as best i can, plan is to get her all cleaned and polished over next weekend and then start a build thread including the full detail/machine polish i will be carrying out on the car, then have a mate take some good pictures, may take a while to write up as i work long shifts and when im home im pretty tired, not to mention my mate will like to do a bit of editing and ill be picking away with the cleaning side during the week weather permitting im very happy with the car as it stands its very quick didnt make the power i had hoped for to which i am gutted purely for the sake of saying 300hp from a 1.3 BUT plans are in the making to clear 300 by a good bit in the not to distant future having spoke with mike we have came do a conclusion of parts, costs etc i will also be doing a full write of of tuning developments service, worksmanship, etc so keep an eye out for that incase anyone is curious the car made 280.3bhp at 1.4 bar of boost, like i mentioned before I/C pipes and exhaust choked up a bit of power i have the printout somewhere and will get exact figures when im doing the build thread and get it all typed up properly including how it all started and the various stages of the build. cheers for the patience and ill try get as much as i can done as soon as i can cheers, Chris -
