Vadim,
My RRS has been to them before and as you say they are top notch when it comes to getting things sorted

It is also having the tail gate sorted out because i have to push it up by hand to get it to open fully

I have not met James either and this was my third visit to the dealership, was going task to see him but then thought maybe next time.

It is all the sales people walking around in suits that intimidates me, i hate suits.

I almost got away not wearing a suit to my own wedding , even when i do where a suit it has to be Reservoir Dogs style (the shirt will never be tucked in and the tie will be loose).

Anyways once sorted will let you know what happened  TDV8 HST STORNOWAY ON A 58

Aziz,

Good to meet you earlier, and glad to hear that we looked after you! Sorry about the suit, but givien the choice I'd be in shorts, tshirt and flip flops (perhaps not in this weather)

Hope to see you again next time?

James

PS Vadim, tip me off next time you come in?

Vadim,

Very expensive repair (£1700+) thank god i had the warranty.

All the above was also done to my RRS and some extra work as well to the rear suspension, cant remember what Wayne exactly told me because i was in laa laa land and could only see my bed in front of me (finished a night shift)

Got the shock of my life when i started driving it totally different vehicle, totally different drive, had to get used to it again.

Everything was so much more responsive.

No knocking noise, no squeaking sound when going over speed humps and taking slow turns.

All in all think it was the best two days that any of my motors have spent at a dealers.

Vadim get it done  TDV8 HST STORNOWAY ON A 58

Thank you for your post, AZIZBBU.
My God, you had a major repair! How old is your car? I ordered new tyres today and I shall book and appointment with LPR once the tyres come in, so that LPR install them for me  Vadim A.

Vadim,

Its a 58 plate tdv8 hst.

Never been driven off road or anything like that.

But as you may know with any car once something goes wrong its never a cheap repair.

From what i hear most RRS's with this problem have had this work done so its best to have it checked out  TDV8 HST STORNOWAY ON A 58

Indeed, it's good to have it checked. Very interesting how dramatically the feel of the car has changed after fixing its suspension. Vadim A.

Before the repair the steering felt slightly heavy, but i took it for granted, that's how it should be.

Got into the car today and had to keep on correcting myself because the steering felt so much lighter. just needs getting used to again

Like i said it feels like a totally different car, all for the better. TDV8 HST STORNOWAY ON A 58

Nice to hear, good for you I am sure it'll stay that way! Vadim A.

but after replacing it, wont it start knocking again?

Fatandre, that's the spirit! Let's hope it won't!!  Vadim A.
