Well, I put the ute in for it's 110,000km service today with my mechanic.
I supplied most parts from him to do the job, like I always have with him, and he's cool with that. Two things go wrong... 1. I supplied him the wrong ignition leads. Apparantly the rubbers weren't big enough to fit round the coils, I double checked the parts number at Super Cheap (I hate them) and they checked out to be the right ones... I'll be heading there after work to get my moolah back, that's for sure. 2. I have a lovely folded ute tub now too. Well, it's nothing drastic, just that when he was lifting up the ute on the hoist, the arm came out from underneath and bent the front of the tub up a little. I'm going to call the local panel beater shop and get them to fix it. My mechanic said he's OK with paying it. Everytime I want something done with my car, something goes wrong.
