Hi guyz..
Any recommended worshop in JB to service or repair for my 320i F30...
Plz share
After seeing your thread and after much tot, I felt compelled to respond.
Let me share my experiences about JB workshops.
On one occasion : went to workshop for general check, tech found parts faulty n proceeded to repair...when delivery guy delivered parts I notice the tech checking the parts n REJECTING the parts asking delivery guy to bring another one. Anyway my car was repaired and I went back....on another trip back to workshop (for some other checks/service) my car had some issue and many parts needed to be remove, I walked over to casually look at parts from my car n discovered that a PART that was bought from the workshop has an INSCRIPTION on it...that’s when I realized the part I got from the workshop WASNT NEW.
so lesson one do bring your own parts
As the parts didn’t give any problem, I decided to just sweep this issue under the carpet.
So I still went back. On another occasion I was at the workshop to fix some NOISES coming from the car...so Tech says to change parts A. And I did as advised. After change part A noise was still there and tech then says need to change B. So I gave the green light to order the part....lucky for me the tech didn’t take me seriously as part B was an expensive item. So I decided to bring my car to an SG workshop...problem solved $80.
Story continues, 1-2 yrs later, a similar noise came back and I tot I swing back to check with the workshop on some noise. Left my car there went out n came back for my car a few hours later....to my surprise they were changed Part A again!!! It was already near completion so I decided to see if the noise was gone..luckily the noise was gone n I didn’t wanna make a big fuss about it. Btw part A usually last more then 5 years.
So lesson 2, sometimes workshop follow SOP, problem A, replace ABCD.
Got many other stories but just share the more scary one.
Well if u ask me if I will still go to the workshop, yeah why not, maybe for oil change n if I wanna eat something nearby that area. Sometimes it’s not about the workshop, it’s about the crew who is in charge of your car...the boss may not have time to check on every car n that would mean the health of your car is dependent on the tech assigned to your car.
Ok that’s all...not ranting..FYI for those who think JB workshops are good.
