Well if you lot think you have problems - it's worse for us girlies! A Vauxhall main dealer once tried to fob me off with new brake pads when the discs were warped. I don't know that much about cars - but I insisted on new discs (it was a new-ish car and still under warranty) and I was proved right in the end. Kwik-Fit also tried to con me by saying my car's brakes were in a dangerous condition and that I would end up killing my baby in an accident if I drove it out of the garage - my then father in law (ex mechanic) had done them the week before. Now I go to a mechanic who I've known for years and is trustworthy - no more main dealer repairs for me!
