Sorry to say that after the pasting I got I vowed not to comment further on this post, however...
Perhaps I put the wrong slant on my post it was at the end of a long and tiring day.
What really got my goat was that members will not actually read posts properly, they gloss over and think they know what has been said.
I got slagged for saying ramps are a liability...I did not say that, what I said was that for me a ramp is a liability most of the time. I am an autoelectrician with a two bay workshop, to have a ramp would get in my way as I mostly need doors wide open to get in the footwells. yes, occasionally a ramp would be a Godsend, mostly it wouldn't.
Anyway to the point...
I pointed out to the customer that I could see white salts leaking out of the loom under the windscreen scuttle area and that a loom fault was likely. She decided that she couldn't wait and booked in with a main dealer, after waiting nearly two weeks they got the same codes I did (big surprise) and diagnosed a loom fault (another big surprise) they repaired the loom apparently which went wrong again, Finally they fitted another engine loom and presented her with a bill in excess of 600 quid. I am sure I would have given her a bill for half of that at the most.
And thank you to all those who supported me here and in PM's.
