Anyone been in contact with him recently? I have sent a couple of emails but got no reply. I know he is a busy guy but normally he would reply within the week. Is he still tuning?

 

He will contact you. Sometimes a while before he replies.

 

He never replied to me. Needless to say I went else where for my parts.

 

He is very busy man, it took 3 weeks till I got a reply from the man.

 

Its been nearly a month from my first email and almost 2 weeks since the latest and no reply. Anyone get mapped by him recently? I got my car mapped by him earlier in the year but want to change a few things so will need him to alter the map...

 

Was mapped a few months ago, he got back to me no probs within a few days.
Are there any 1/4 mile events coming up cos I know things tend to be put on the back burner when he is trying to get his car set up for an event.

Keep trying you will get there in the end (will be needing to contact him myself soon as the car is going in on Thursday to get exhaust modified and induction kit fabricated)

Does Andy come on here at all?

 

Ditto sent a really polite email and never got a response. his loss more then mine.

 

Guys, he's a busy man.

Are your emails sensibly titled?
I get the impression Andy gets quite a lot of emails, and probably a bit like myself he probably deletes purely based on subject/email address - assuming they get past a spam filter in the first place.

 

He is one man. If and when he maps your car, would you want him to be taking time out to answer all these emails instead of getting on with your car?

 

Does Andy not have a contact number on his website, might be better to try him on that?

Fair enough if he's busy I can understand that. Just I have been talking to others like myself that have had there car mapped by him and seem's to be the same story getting no reply so wondering is there any other reason bar been very busy. I am not giving out in the slightest about Andy F incase it is coming across that way, the guy is a gent and very good at what he does. Ill wait another few weeks and if no reply ill try again with subject attached as mentioned above.

 

Believe the best contact method for AndyF is phone. I'd suggest trying him a few times across the day - some people get tons and tins of emails and can't filter what is relevant from what is irrelevant easily so he might well just have to ignored the swamp of stuff he gets. A phone call, if he is able to pick up, then means he quickly gets to the heart of the query.

 

You need to send a realy short email and he's quick replying .

 

I have been emailing Andy
always get a good reply can take a few days

 

Took me a while to get hold of Andy first of all, tried by phone for a week or two both numbers, then managed to get hold of him via e-mail, that was to buy a turbo from him, since then he's mapped my car 3 or 4 times and has occasionally answered my calls and always replied to e-mail, glad i persisted Andy's a legend, my advise would be stick with the e-mails (check you've got the correct address) and keep them short and to the point.

 

Unfortunately I have been patiently trying to contact Andy for the past 16 months but to little avail. Does anyone have experience with contacting Andy recently?

 

Email is the best method. He always got back to me within three days. Very busy guy, but you'd never think it when he maps your car - Totally chilled and answers any questions you have at all. Never felt I was rushed with Andy, which makes a nice change to most garages etc.

Keep trying folks.

 

For the past 16 months I have in patiently calling and e-mailing Andy at regular intervals and he never picks up the phone or answers e-mails. He acknowledged receipt of my old ecu unit in April 2008 witch he verbally agreed to tune and since then I have not managed to speak with him. I feel a little disappointed but still persist because his professional reputation is such that i consider it worth.

Andy maped my car on the 9/9/09
and replys to my emails
make your Subject: clear and mail short
he has a lot of work on
Best of luck

 

I bet he gets countless emails from people who have absolutely no intention of actually using him. Asking questions about set ups etc. Not to say that is why he hasnt responded, I just bet he gets a ridiculous amount of mail, and some will get missed.

Never heard a bad word about him, so he must be worth it.

I used Bob Rawle, and he usually takes 24 hours to reply, but he takes time to reply thoroughly, and its not a quick few lines either. But I have also heard people struggling with Bob. Good mappers are clearly in demand. Stick with it.

 

JGM has his lappy with him all the time so you'll get a reply within 24 hours .. and he's also one of the best.
