There isn't though.



But yeah, rip off.

I once had a previous car that just cut off on my way into work (fairly modified) so I had it towed to a very nearby shop that had previously done a few simple things for me that I couldn't do easily myself due to lack of a lift... I figured it had to be something simple since it wouldn't restart (it's fuel or spark, right?) and I didn't have time to look at it since I had to get to work.

So I go over there after work and the guy explains he had his "technicians" look it over all day, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I needed to take it someplace else... and I only owed him a $100 diagnostic fee.


I pointed out he didn't diagnose anything.

He insisted he still had to pay his guys for trying.

I said maybe you need to hire more competent guys then, but I'm not paying for your poor hiring skills.

He said he wouldn't give the car back unless I paid him.

I said ok, here's a credit card to pay you...and soon as I leave I'll call Mastercard and tell -them- not to pay you.


He got a super pissed look on his face and just tossed me my keys and told me I wasn't welcome back at his shop... which I informed him was no problem at all.



Anyway, got it towed home, replaced the ignition coil myself that weekend (which took me like 10 minutes to diagnose myself) , car ran fine after.

 

NO camber adjustment.

 

I don't know much about he camber adjustment but I'll make sure never to go to that place. Yeah I haven't been to Bullock but I've heard nothing but good things about them.

Only Andy touches my car.

 

2slow, what is BBB?

Lol I hate useless shops! At least you got away without paying. I just gave him the money and told him I’m never coming back.

That is awesome to hear. I’ll be seeing him tomorrow morning. I’ll be sure to let him know about his fan base.

 

yes,

for $30, i'd at least like a print out..

 

ahahah shafted...thought you would know more than that with all those mods, unless youre paying other people to fix up your car.

 

I did all the mods myself except the coilovers because I don't have the time to do it. But even so, that doesn't mean I should know everything about the IS, or what mechanics do to scam people.
