RobSR Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 ^ I know people moan about the time frame with TD but i didn't think people had problems with engines letting go? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Starbucks posted up today he's been though 2 and decided just to sell up. John took his elsewhere to have Tds map redone because he lost faith in Tds work. Taggy and funny opinion had melted pistons shortly after having them map there cars. A lad on tgtt had posted up because he had been waiting over a year for a stage 3 engine to be sent. And then there's people that seem to have just had the absolute piss ripped out them and are still paying them money to fix it for god knows what reason. Don't get me wrong there's plenty of happy customers but last few months there work seems to have went down hill. That's just the starlet tuning side aswell if your on other forums there has been some pretty scary story's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And he has got back to me every time Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chris_14a Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Everyone's entitled to there options and have there own experiences with td but just for the banter I'll bet you 50quid he will either not get it in the quoted timeframe,be atleast 20% over quoted price or the engine shits itself within 6months of leaving td.When you say for the banter what you actually mean is so you can complain about something that is to do with other people. Plus there is multipul complaints about all tuners on here and not its the nature of the business as alot is the unknown and can take longer than expected etc. Skimmy glad your looking forward to it mate it wont disappoint Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd just be interested to see if anyone of the people who post up saying how great TD are would actually put there money where there mouth is. Everyone has there preference to there tuners and all tuners have good and bad story's but from my side I've herd of more people having issues with TD than being happy with the service which gives gives me my personal opinion. But if you where that confident how great they where then my offer of a bet should have sounded like free money to you and woe woulda jumped at it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_14a Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I never mentioned anything about a bet you did I just said I was happy with my service from them as are others but what you are saying is that if people want to say good things about td they have to make a bet but if they want to complain they can say what ever they want.There are plenty of horror stories from other tuners on here it is just people on here choose to stay quiet as do most people who are happy because other members just choose to shout them down, Also when problems do show up people jump on it depending on where there loyalties lie with tuning companies with out ever knowing both sides to stories etc and that goes for all tuners which is usually why I and most people stay out of it which is what I am going to do after this comment.Skimmy sorry for filling your thread with all the negative shite. Enjoy the car mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
