Title: ABS update update
Post by pat on Jul 13^th, 2007, 12:50am

It's sorted!!!!!!

Very young mechanic-is he up to this, I thought.

Shame on me. Within 30 mins he had done computer scan, sussed problem and taken it for extended road test.

The solution? Bad connection/wiring problem to ABS pump.

How much?
A/ The princely sum of £35!

Needless to say I treated him.
Booked in next week for Re-MOT and sort out missing problem.
Oh yeah, says he. Probably dried out top harness-they all do it.

Smart-arsed little s**t.
Only joking-Iam indebted to him. On production of new MOT, I shall reward him again as he has saved me loads over what I expected to pay out.
Didn't even try to pad the job out.

Sounds like a good deal - where abouts did you go?

Hi Darren.
Ian Parkes, Chesterfield road, Mansfield.

Go past Kwikfit on your right heading out of Mansfield.
Further up on same side, turn into entrance to Focus car park. Bear left and you will see garage at the top end of the yard behind Focus.

PS. Thanks again for your offer.

All the best, Pat

Good to see the Nottingham contingent getting on so well too. LOL
