Give Dog Tyred a miss – Poor mechanical work with no back up. I recently had the outer CV boot replaced on my Holden Colorado. [Name Removed] advised that the sway bar link arm was seized and would also need to be cut off and replaced at a cost of extra $110. Later that day they charged me extra $130 for the link arm and when I drove the vehicle home the ABS sensor light… Read more
was on so I immediately drove back and was told it's a common problem when doing this type of job. He cleared the error with a scan tool and said if the error re-appeared then he would order the new ABS sensor. By the time I drove home the error light came back on so I notified them to order the new part. Well 3 days later I climbed under the car to check their work only to find grease splattered all around where they had replaced the CV boot, also there was a gouge in the sway bar where they hit it with the angle grinder when cutting off the sway bar link arm, and they also used plastic zip ties to fasten the new CV boot. I went back to point out the problems and they discovered the metal clamp on the inner CV boot had broken (obviously by them) and that is where the grease was coming from, they also advised that plastic zip ties were all they ever used to fasten the CV boots even though they come with stainless steel straps. At that point he said he would fix the ABS sensor and the leaking inner CV boot when the part arrived. Scott also said he would ring me back in five minutes to let me know when the part was due to arrive, 3 week later and i'm still waiting Scott. In fact don't bother as i've since taken my car to a proper mechanic and he discovered that the metal ABS sensor bracket had been bent which was causing the error light to come up on the dash, he straightened the bracket and put stainless clamps on the CV boots and now it's working as it should. Definitely wont be going back ever again.
This is so good – I have an old car but it is very important for me to go to work. I changed the tow rare tyres last week and I feel better than before. It is worthwhile.
As good as it gets – Tyre supplier for our C Class Merc - recommended Falkan - supplied and fitted with balance and alignment - very prompt, very reasonable price comparable to the majors - great considering they are independants Exceptional personnel in every way
