I booked a car in for service on behalf of a local pensioner. I dropped the car off early and returned at close of business to find the car had not been serviced.
I was told that "the cars registration number had been written down incorrectly in the job book". This unbelievably dumb excuse was delivered straight faced despite the fact that a) its irrelevant b) the car was sitting outside the office window with the registration clearly visible and c) you have a phone.
Cheers for the wasted day and well done for messing around a pensioner too, awesome job, pat on the back. Your integrity is zero.
In other news, the pensioner voted with their zimmer and you lot are history.
My car needed a service, an MOT and it had an engine management light on due to a clogged EGR valve.
The EGR valve gets blocked due to diesel soot and carbon blocking it up over a period of time and I was quoted from other garages £260+ vat to £600+ vat… for the same thing.
I bought an EGR valve replacement from EuroCarParts and planned to ‘have a go’ at replacing it myself but the very reasonable price I was quoted from HWG was enough for me to let the experts do it.
The car was serviced, MOT’d and EGR valve replaced all at the same time and the process went without hitch, drama or hassle.. the advice I was given was professional, accurate and without trying to get more money out of me that I didn’t need to spend. Some garages wanted £50+ vat to tell me what the fault was causing the engine management light to come on, despite already knowing by reading the cars ECU myself.
I have no hesitation in recommending HWG and will definitely go back there with other mechanical work in the future.
5 stars from me..
