Why how much are they asking? Takes a couple minutes to do.

OBDII will only do engine. You need proper diag to get into BECM. £40 + the dreaded for two minutes work is bloody ridiculous.

Daughter has a Nissan Note with engine light on, my friendly MOT guy read & cleared the code for O2 sensor (FOC), the light came back on, Called main dealer to get it done under warranty - they wanted £55 + Vat
just to diagnose if the fault wasn't covered by warranty, even having been told what it was!A

If the car is under warranty and the O2 sensor has failed it is for them to find the cause and replace any parts needed FOC.

Local Vauxhall dealer tried to tell 20yo girl next door that she had to pay for a "winter inspection" for them to take a squint at the brakes on her *4 month old* car. She says they put it to her as if she was the idiot for expecting anything else.
Unreal. These frauds are taking no prisoners at all.

It's an RAC Platinum warranty (08 vehicle), the supplying (non main) dealer is 15 miles away, and she needs the car for work. Found an RAC approved indy who's doing it tomorrow.

20 year old? Send her here will inspect her for nothing.
I suspect she swings the other way; let's say she'd fit in better on the front row than swan lake.....

If we are having a bitch at garages, attached is a picture of one of my front brakes that Trust Ford in Warrington refused to replace under their "brakes for life" guarantee (I got the car from them) because, and I quote, "There is plenty of material left on them, they are only worn down to 70%". Despite the fact they are clearly coming apart. The problem is I'd replaced the discs myself as I knew only the pads were covered so they had no way of making money out of me!!

That pad is clearly knackered and has been for some time. How much meat is left is irrelevant. The disc it came off was none to good either.

With one notable exception, I have never in nearly 50 years of vehicle ownership ever had a job done correctly and to spec. by a garage. Main stealers being the worst by far.
