jamesmark Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) Taking bets on 'pending legal action' thread being started. oops my feelings of yipee have just dwindled to what the f@*: have i just done. maybe bit better off as im non turbo. You have an N/A and you are getting an ECU fitted? Why? Or is your one buggered? Or am I missing something?

Scott Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 oops my feelings of yipee have just dwindled to what the f@*: have i just done. maybe bit better off as im non turbo. A lot less to go wrong there then buddy, as i said, fingers crossed. Sorry for pissing on your chips but its through peoples misfortunes that we learn of the places not to go on here. I'd suggest a quick search or post of where you plan to get work done in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Dear God People still use them?! At least it's an NA so provided they're not opening anything it should be okay, fingers crossed. DODGYDODDS, £5k rebuild? WTF are you having done! EDIT - just read it's been there 8 weeks, what the feck are they doing, rebuilding it a molecule at a time?

DODGYDODDS Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Well i took it to them as my car on over-run, would spew out tons of smoke and use a ltr of oil in 50miles, i thought it was turbo seals, so on advice, went to interpro, afetr they looked at it, they told me that through det, my sparkplug electrode (iridium) had come off in the 5th cylinder wrecking the lining and bore, and damaged my valve guides, also bits had made it into the bottom end, so im having new pistons rods bottom end bearing, crank grind, rebore/hone head skim valve guides and vsos replaced, new oil water pump new gaskets, and arp head bolts, (awaits to be told im being fleeced) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 What sort of evidence did they offer to show this? Leakdown test results, compression test, the faulty plug, etc? It might be genuine, but on the other hand you could be being ripped off. Word of warning to anyone else, make sure the garage provides absolute evidence of an issue before commiting to work. Interpro had a bad reputation before Jody T came onboard, maintained a reasonable one while Jody was there to manage things, but recent feedback has been extremely bad. Don't forget the mkivstore scandal Out of interest, who recomended them to you? PM if you prefer. It might be of interest to the moderators.

DODGYDODDS Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 well it failed the commpression test, and they proceeded with the leakdown test, did get the numbers but was working away at the time so it was over the phone, just wish i had of used toyota gt or srd now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 getting an ecu fitted and car set up An NA and getting an ECU fitted? I'm not going to comment on anything to do with where the car is going, but I'm very curious as to why an ECU is being fitted? Given some of the post I assume it isn't an NA-T job.

TopgunTT Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I won't be going back there again since Jody has gone, Found Jody a great help and only reason i went up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
