I think I have more chance of divine intervention and the car mending itself and then re-assembling its own dash... Latest is they have found the fault - in the left hand front door - that will be where I told them it was then. I knew this as they had done something inside the front left door prior to me buying it - and I knew this because the left hand mirror didn't fold... I've suggested to the man paying for it that he haggles hard over this and considers telling them to take a hike with their bill... |

Well... They reckoned that the LCM had been blown by the short (I thought that the whole point of MOSFETs was that they didn't blow in those conditions) and have fixed the fault and charged him £700. Personally I think he's been robbed and the dealer have let themselves down by taking so long, failing to ever ring back, failing to meet their own targets of time and leaving the car filthy. Other than that, it's very pretty inside at night now. Reminds me of Blackpool. |

Yes. Even better now I've tightened up the battery clamps, tightened the torx screws at hold the top of the baseboard on, wiped the mucky fingerprints off the dash and facia and replaced the fuse box lid that was on the floor on the passenger side! Trinity Land Rover in Hinckley - for when you want to pay for a quality job, but not get one! |

Exactly - not only will never use them again, I'll make sure that everyone I know doesn't use them again too... And I know a lot of people with LR vehicles! I generally use a mobile mechanic for anything I don't fancy doing myself. He's based in the west midlands somewhere, but travels all over and always does a brilliant job. Always charges a sensible amount too. I'm not sure if it's against rules to post his details on here, but if any one wants them I'll happily pass them on, he's done loads for me over the years and is 100% reliable and the work is superb. |
