fiorentina

Stoneacre Fiat/Alfa service centre Doncaster (does anyone have any experience of this garage) have the car. This is the first full day they've had it and they have "not found any errors present in the computer". dunno if this is good or bad, if it was something major would they spot it straight away? i'm assuming they've started the car and observed the problem (havent' actually spoken to anyone, they left a message on my phone).

They're waiting for a local specialist to come in and have a look at it on Thursday, he's not there tomorrow apparently.

Sad state of affairs if garages can now only diagnose what's wrong with cars if the computer tells them what it is. I would have thought they could track down what the problem is by starting the car and working from there!!!

quite frustrated at the moment, i'll give them a ring tomorrow to see if i can get some more info. I'm screwed without a car so every day they have it is really inconvenient for me, especially if it's going to sit there tomorrow with no-one looking at it.
