that thread has put me off club gti. especially the "if you did not have it done to your car you cant comment" type posts they were implying if a friend takes a car to a garage and they do a bad job, next time someone asks for a good garage you cant warn them unless you take your car there first for them to damage it. how exactly does that help

on the first page Dex says that section of the forum was there for the very reason of that post. to cover good and bad conversions carried out by VW tuning companies. Obviously DD didn't like the bad press which was extirely their own fault and asked for the thread to be pulled.

they've only themselves to blame.

did DD really ask for the thread to be pulled.. or was it clubgti getting jittery about it?

would be interesting to know!

whichever way..this doesnt just reflect badly upon DD but also upon clubgti..

ohwell. I guess we'll never know. I plan to pull my engine out soon and compeltely redo their poxy wiring solding it all in nicely. then hide everything I can, clean it all up and do a proper job. then I can say DD supplied the engine and I installed it.

Paul - like the user name! very good. Welcome to the site BTW

Dizzie. I really think you need to collect all this evidence then approach DD and tell them the problems you have had with them. Give them the oppurtunity to make ammends, or compensate you for the inconvenience. We all know that DD have done some good work in the past, so do have the abililty to do it again. If this doesn't work, then take all your evidence to trading standards, and ask them about the prospect of a refund of your money, as DD have not carried out what they were paid to do.
I don't own this anymore - I just can't be arsed to change the picture

Ads I can't be arsed with them anymore. I'm not going to take my car 100+ miles for it to sit in their workshop for another couple of weeks. I've fixed all their f**kups myself. The engine is coming out soon to be cleaned up ready for some shows.
