I do love boost though... but not until I'm off my Ps =[
welcome to the forum kristoffa , neat lookin Q you got.
The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
Very nice mate, I was just about to buy a GQ with that colour tone many years back...
Yeah I love the colour. Originally I wanted black/silver or blue/silver, but they were getting hard to find in the condition I wanted for my price. Saw this, drove up to the other side of Melbourne the day after to look at it, then the day after that I was driving home in it.
Dunno how true it is but the bloke I bought it off reckons that it's a rare Patrol colour, but I've seen it a bit now since I've had mine. There's even another bloke in my tiny town with one the same.
Get this... after having my car for an entire week, the mechanic YET AGAIN got the wrong part.
I was in a rush to get to work last Tuesday so called up RACV to get it towed, I didn't have time to work out what was wrong. Took them 4 days to find the water in the ECU and now they aren't gonna have the new one until tomorrow. Something tells me it won't be ready tomorrow.
I hate incompetent mechanics!!!
It beyond sucks! At this rate I won't have a car over Christmas!
I've contacted RACV and asked if they could tow the car to Morwell. They said that they will not pay for another tow even after I told them what has happened. They have however marked Morwell as my nearest depot, so it will never again be going to the place it's currently at.
I've had previous trouble with this mob with my old car, took it in with a stuffed coil and asked them to replace it. Yeah no worries I go to pick it up and he says oh no it was the fuel pump that was making it run like a dog. Hmm okay fair enough then... started the car and it was still running like a dog.
So due to their previous incompetence I got a free fuel pump but a car still running like sh!t.
Got my car back... took a week but I finally got it back.
With the new ECU it now runs on petrol again and the air con works. Bloody long and painful ordeal but it's probably worth it. Just glad to have my car back so I can get to work on time.
