Ummm. Perhaps your last question there. I had one of my front ones replaced back in June last year with a gen boot - no problems. |

Thanks Stu, that what I was thinking but wanted to give them the benefit of doubt! They’re having it back on Tuesday to have a final attempt to fix it.

The proper clip should be clamped on with a special crimping tool designed for the clips (its a fairly standard type of crimp). Once its on, its really unusual / difficult for it to loosen / fail.

Had one of mine replaced on the 3.6, the garage has one go at it and it wasn’t a problem again! There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Thanks for your comments. They had it in on Tuesday to try again. Had a call Tuesday afternoon to say that they had caught the (suspension) airbag and punctured it whilst fitting the boot! Apologised profusely and said that they would replace it at their cost.
