Rattles

[andykram]

I know a lot of the stealers are sh**e but I still don't see why you would want to do it yourself on a car a matter of months old.

Yeah, do not do it yourself as they may say - we would've done it for you but now you broke it...

My car came back after heavy thrashing by some technician. Some of the rattles are now less frequent but the A-pillar rattle makes up for it. I'm just writing a letter asking for another repair (without thrashing this time) but it all seems to be heading for a rejection. This is not the quality I expect from £28 grand car!

If they can not provide a car that meets my expectations someone else will, I'm sure.

from my experience, anything you can fix yourself.... fix yourself!

Or because cars are basically snap-together these days and any averagely capable person can do it. I understand however if some don't feel confident why they'd leave it to the dealer.

And to avoid this sort of thing.

I would (and I have on my previous car) fix it myself if the car not not brand new. By playing by the rules I still keep the rights to reject it as of not satisfactory quality.

well mines been in for the 'ticking' noise this morning and they can't locate it - however, they did admit that the noise is annoying as f**k. to which i entirely agree.  Anyway, i've left it with them as they reckon they need to take the whole dash apart...hmmm.. as long as it comes back rattle and damage free after their efforts i'll be a happy man.

incidently, it's also back to the steelers for splatters of really tiny black paint fleck on the body work. It's white and you can only tell if you go up really close. It's as if someone, from a distance, has sprayed black paint and it's floated through the air and landed on my car. the guy reckons it needs 'compounding'?!?

2 week hol from this eve and then i'll be lookng forward to get back in the beast.

Hi Disco,

I have the black spots too but according to my dealer, its underneath the clear lacquer and they will need to redo it. Luckily its only on the spoilers.
