My Mrs took car in today to have new mid-section of the exhaust replaced(cure for the infamous 4k rattle).
Asked if the car could be returned by 4 oclock as she finishes work at 4.15(works only 2 mins up the rd by car).
She had heard no news by ten to 3 so phoned the dealer to see if the car was ready. Spoke to the service manager and was told there was a problem with our car.
This problem was that the servo pipe had melted due to the fact that they had the car running whilst stationary to find out whether there was any resonance with the exhaust system (this is with new pipe fitted and using their descriptions).
They had found this problem after test-driving the car and noticing that the brakes werent performing properly, so investigated and found a melted pipe.
Your comments please.
