    I spent a whisper over 2grand, I just want my undertray back and will get the issues fixed here in my home town.
    Not fussed about getting money back, just glad to have the car sitting here with me.

    I did have new coil packs spark plugs and 2 engine mounts fitted aswell for that price,
    Yes DMGRS did me proud on them ordered friday they got them in stock for the Tuesday and on my door step wednesday morning.
    2 new diff shocks here aswell through the e shop.
    Yes my local garage will be removing and refiting the bushes after the tales of woe about them being a pig to do.

    They were new coil packs on the car when I got it back roadworthy Phil. They came with the car so were they faulty ?
