Hi maybe your spigot or O rings are at fault, would save a big amount if it's them.Also some people i know haven't balanced wheels properly in the past, and with the combination done professionally eradicated a wobbling problem you probably have now. Hoping you didn't pay for the new flywheel tell them to fit your old flywheel. You should not have to pay for the labour, because that isn't the fault there with the new flywheel.

Gave up on VX and sold the damn car on Saturday Never again will I a) buy a Vauxhall or b) buy a brand new car.

We pick up our (used) Volkswagen Touran Sport on Friday. Can't wait to own a decent and hopefully reliable car!!

Not a chance. We have been promised 2 complete LPG kits to keep here for spares,the warrenty has been extended on both vans for 6 months each, BUT the LPG kits were meant to have been ordered 2 months ago and we cant get an answer if they have or not. Solicitor will be contacted if we get nowhere in the next week as we have a letter stating they are supplying thekits.

Thats just taking the **** now.
Whats the problem with it this time??
Is there no way you can reject it and get the money you've paid back. No one can say that you haven't given them ample time to sort out the problems!!

The same problems as last year. wont run on LPG. We have tried and tried to reject it but get told we cant. not just vauxhall saying this either. solicitors too. Its the biggest joke ever altho atleast i dont have to drive the heaps anymore. LOVING my berlingo, Months (touches wood) of trouble free motoring so far.

Start court proceedings against them. That should sharpen their focus a little.

Our solicitor says so, as its a commercial and the problems were not immediate. Court is our next option i think, how long do we have to wait? Cant say we NOT been patient.
