I took my company car to them recently because of steering vibration, and said can you balance the front wheels.
They came back after a couple of mins and said the front tyres were 'illegal' and I would need a new pair - no probs, company car, so fleaseplan will pay.
Made no difference to the vibration!
Washed the car a couple of days later and couldn't see any balancing weights, so took it to another C**pfit. They then took 15 minutes balancing the completely unbalanced new tyres fitted by the other fitters!! Much better after that!
