Barron would have just done a usual service, I don't see how that can cause more problems?
Change of: Oil, oil filter, fuel filter(maybe), air filter, spark plugs, (Maybe! discs and pads) and anything else thats been mentioned. SOME PLACE are sh*t. not helpful and never have been. Dan Clio put his car in there(Happy Days) last week for a clutch change and at the test centre they found his gear oil filling plug loose and ready to fall out which was leaking oil!
Barron all the way!
Im not saying that he isnt good at his job its just that Unders car didnt come out in any better state than it went in to be honest. He cant do a great job all the time but it seems he does most of the time..........prehaps Unders was just unlucky

ive never had a problem with happy days motors and i have always sent my reno 5s there and theve always done a great job on my 5s sum people are just unlucky with garages like eurocars i sent 1 of my 5s there and they went mental just cos it had a tiny leak also 1 of my other 5s i sent there was over heating and they couldnt work out why at the prices they charge they should of worked it out it was only a blocked manifold that iworked out my self in the end so its the luck of the draw

mofo....SCP must be the most expensive garage in the world they charged me £115 jus to look at my car for 2 hours! with a £45 i dont think ill be going there again! Even if they are good im sure there is somewhere around that's just as good but that charge a bit less.
