tenchijin Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Hi all, hope you can help me. I've got a couple of issues with my 350z, I dropped in into the local WLMG Nissan garage to get looked at. They finally call me 30 minutes before they are due to close to tell me no, there's no knocking coming from the passenger side front wheel (which there clearly is) and there's no code on the onboard computer to say that the car is popping when idle (all you have to do is sit and listen / watch it and you'll easily spot that its popping). Really not impressed as the guy was basically telling me I was imagining it, so I now have to go and take a drive with the engineer to point out these obvious issues. I have, as you can probably tell, lost all confidence in these guys now and I am hoping to find a specialist garage in the Reading Berkshire area that I can take the vehicle to. I really dont mind spending the money to have this fixed but I also dont want to pour money down the drain to fund diagnostics by and uninterested / unskilled technician. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenchijin Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Horsham developments arent too far from you! Sai Are they good guys? It's a little way out but I dont mind heading out that way if they can help me out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sized Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Or get yourself down to Abbey Motorsport mate. Can't recommend them highly enough and they do all the work on my zed Hope you get your issues sorted soon though dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 TGM Sport in Fleet are good guys. They know their way around Zeds pretty well, especially the handling side of things. Abbey Motorsport are in Oxsted, bit futher away but have more experience of full on Zed work. Jez @ Horsham Developments is a bit futher the other way, but again, knows the Zed inside out. Any of those 3 will sort you out Did WLMG charge you for any work? Thave have a High Performance Centre in Slough who will look after you well if you mention the forum. I know you probably dont want to use another WLMG, but Slough will likely rectify any problems you had with Reading if you talk to them.

No they haven't charged me as yet as I left the car there overnight. To be honest if they try and charge me for diagnostic work after this I'm going to be disputing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
