A year or so ago when taking the engine out of mums punto, we were stunned by the fact the gearbox with being held onto the engine with only 2 bolts, yes TWO BOLTS! Absolutely unbelievable!
Turns out she had a gearbox replacement carried out at FAST which is a fiat/alfa specialist in stockton-on-tees, portrack lane. Today stumbled across the receipt for this work. On the receipt is a gearbox replacement, and brake disc's and pads.
The price ? £1,490. So not only did they install the gearbox in an unsafe, extremely unprofessional, dangerous way. They charged her an arm and a leg for it too. Feel sorry for mum as they just saw her has a vulnerable woman who didnt have a clue.
Also was a little suspicious how the car kept coming out with new problems, one time the handbrake cable had miraculously fell off. One time it came out with a dead battery (having had it just replaced!) We were certain they kept doing things so we would have to go back!
NEVER go to FAST if you live in the area.
