Are Vauxhall dealers naturally incompetent(*) or are they trained that way. Having lost the Monaro for 21 days while they replaced the carpets and mats and fix the leaks for a second time (I’m still waiting for a good down pour to find out for sure). I now find that they have re-wired the central consol wrong. I took the car out for a spin tonight and thought I’d drop the T/C off. Pushed the button and the Fog lights came on

Now I don’t know what’s sadder. The numpty that put the plugs in the wrong way round or me for taking 10 days to find out.

*(Greens excepted from the above comment judging from all the glowing comments on this board. Caspy when are you moving up the country?)

They at least need to know how to start the car for one. Almost felt like driving away there and then in embarrassment when guy couldnt start it.

I p1ssed myself for about 15 minutes while the 'Monaro Specialist' tried to start mine.... He eventually came back in to the waiting room and asked me where the imobiliser was... Knob

Try depressing the clutch, Lofty!

Mine does that too! Mentioned this before I picked up the car but the Monaro Specialist checked it out and "no fault found", apparantly another one of those "characteristics of the Monaro"
