renault trafic
« on: April 23, 2009, 10:30:45 am »
sat on the motorway this morning at 5.30 waiting for the AA to recover my van.
Poxy clutch gone again. Had one fitted in Nov 08, done 14,000 miles and guess what....warranty is 12k or 12 mths whichever comes sooner. F****** piece of s***.
Had to let customer down who booked their windows in a week ago and had sent messages to all the residents that we were coming, lost days work for me and one other, clutch quote between £500-£700  :o depending on what its like when they take it out (you can guess what condition its going to be in) >:(
Anyway, thats my rant over. Thanks for listening.

You've done 14000 miles in 5 months window cleaning :o :o :o :o :o
I'm lucky if I do 14000 miles in 5 years.

Feel for you though mate, not nice having that happen
