After starting problems with the Deli, took her up to DB's on Tuesday evening. Had a chat with them about the problem, DB said he'd diag the problem (note - if it was fuel seals, which it wasn't - it would be 125+vat, BARGAIN) Any how - he called me up at 10.30 the following morning, and advised that the Deli required all new glowblugs cos theyd burnt out, and the injectors were FUBAR.
DB did the job that day, and i collected the vehicle on Thursday morning.
Well Happy, job completed in quick time, good comms (unlike most garages i've used) the guy really does know his stuff, even the Father in law was impressed and thats high praise indeed - and most importantly my bio supplier wasn't at fault.
Remember 125+vat for seals - i think thats a good pricey.

must admit bob did a damn good job on my Deli and about £300 cheaper than local places in liverpool for a pump seal
but i think one of his apprentices took the Deli for a stroll, was missing 1/3 of a tank when i picked it up and a small dent on the back wing.. only noticed when i got to tescos though  |

Sorry Andy, but if it was me i would be kicking up a big stink. 1/3 of a tank, i could handle, due to the job he was doing, But a dent.
