stealership rubbish i think.. what you think?



  Clio 1.2 (progress)
Basically i went to my mates grage to day to get springs fitted to my car which never worked because i dont have a rear torsion bar which you can adjust i need 4 springs instead of 2 but anyway thats another story by its self, so we had it up on the ramp today and where looking at it, seem to be oil leeking from the engine gasket and also the break master cylinder hmmm so beign the car is only a 07 plate still with 3 years warrenty i took it back to the dealers and said can i have someone look at it, had some guy come out all he done was pop the hood bend down look at it say no looks bone dry to me mate its probably just the wax seal coating we put on our engines thats just melt, i was just like hmmm rite then ok :S i dont have a fookin clue about cars to be honest but i think this is bull s**t, in mind we had the car up on ramps to see this all he done was pop the hood and look from above. hmmm well what you guys think?

keep checking your oil if it runs down quite drastically go back to the dealership keep a note of dates when you went in with the problem so you have proof you reported it to them beforehand if something major does go wrong

good idea mate ;) they seem to be ok so i guess it might just be a wax protection around the gasket would sort of make sense, has anyone ever heard of this?

If you want a definitive answer why not stick up for yourself and tell them what you told us... ?

(skip the modding bit as they'll grumble, but could always say it went to kwik-fit for an alignment check, and they noticed the leaks)
