Tsia Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Hi all, Would anybody be able to reccomend me a garage around Milton Keynes where I can get my tracking done properly? I'd prefer to take it to somewhat of a specialist and after a really bad experience at JPS Motorsport with my previous car, I wouldn't even consider going back there. (Before anyone suggests it!) Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsia Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Thanks guys, I'd ideally like to find one in MK though so that I can drop it off/collect it by taking an hour or two out of work. If not, I'll just book it in there and deal with it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsia Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 didn't read in which case WIM it is ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) Being a mkiv with adjustable camber and toe on the rear as well as on the front i would go to WIM as they understand the mkiv, most other alignment places wont have a clue and doubt they'll care either Been there and done it recently with my landcruiser Edited May 23, 2013 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delboy52 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Not me. I'll still be in Cambridge at that time. My tracking was done by Leon at JPS about 2 years ago and he was very good. What went wrong Tsia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsia Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Not me. I'll still be in Cambridge at that time. My tracking was done by Leon at JPS about 2 years ago and he was very good. What went wrong Tsia? A half arsed job that failed within 3 weeks, no responsibility taken, no offer to repair the issue they were supposed to have fixed without wanting more payment (I very clearly set out the terms of what I wanted, an exhaust welding so I could use it plus a new flexi fitting) I got it back a week later with no new flexi, just a patch of welding over it, which they began to blow horribly, then told I never asked them to change the flexi (which I clearly remember doing), then having to wait 30 minutes while the guy sat and did nothing in their garage (within sight and earshot of the reception desk) when I arrived at 12:05, as agreed, on my lunch break for them to take a look. When he finally finished standing around after me fake coughing for about the hundredth time, he said "Sorry I'm too busy today, bring it back next week." ... which I did. Then I was told they wanted more money to repair the problem that they'd caused by fucking up the job in the first place. They also ballsed up a friend of mine's car pretty badly, but as that wasn't myself, I won't comment on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delboy52 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 What a nightmare! Sounds completly different to when I was last there. Looks like we'll all have to drive a bit further out to find a quality place from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Give advanced motorsport & engineering a call in silverstone. Dan is a nice guy and you get pictures with updates on the Facebook page. Which is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
