Am enjoying it Very Happy
I try to not let small things affect me to much.
And am done dealing with them by myself anymore, I've been pushed around enough. I have someone handling them and he's not one to play around with. Laughing

And at least now the Salesman is stepping up to better service. Very Happy

So after the last service a woman in service Dept call me to find out how was my Service experience and if any complaints etc. Confused

I was reading on another thread and came to ask same question I asked.

If we do not take our vehicle to be serviced by NnM then tht Voids the warranty?
So I have to take it in 5000, 10000 etc?

Do they rip us off in these servicing? Do they change parts tht don't need changing or say they do stuff and really don't?

As far as I know, you need to service it every 5000km by them just to maintain the warranty within that period.

As for changing parts that dont need changing, so far I have not had that issue. I am just under 50,000 Km and its only oil. filter, air filter that gets changed.

I have heard first hand stories of the "not changing" what was on the bill and other things; but every story has more than one side..so who knows Rolling Eyes

When I first started servicing they used some oil starting with H..cant remember the name right now.

Then it changed to Castrol. It was always a full syntec they used.

Hottgirl get the Tucson you won't regret it. Very Happy
My biggest problem was getting the vehicle released and tht was Customs fault.
Maybe if they have in stock you wount have to go thru the ordering and waiting and then waiting on Customs to release it.
Also I've been hearing abt price increase but am not sure.


DW I never really watched my gas consumption but one of my runs to an office I make abt 130kms cud be more sometimes, to office and back and I use abt 1/4 tank gas or lil less.
Oh, and I drive with a/c.

Gem, we wanted to get a black but the sales rep said that its the most difficult colour to get....so i guess we're gonna get a different colour instead...the guy also said that it cld take as soon as a week or as long as a month..how long did you have to wait for customs to clear?
The price quote we got was not bad..but do they offer any discounts?

The sales rep usually go on the computer and find the colour you want and book it for you, after you pay the downpayment of course.
It sucks when you don't get the colour you want. Are you in hurry to get it? I think it took abt 5-6 wks to get to Trinidad. Depends on when you catch the shipment coming in.

I took more than a month waiting for Customs to clear my vehicle from the Bond. I was told they clear one day for the week. And during my time they were giving some trouble, or so I was told.

I didn't get any discount. Maybe others did but I didn't get anything free from them.


BTW for those who want the pipe side rails Auto Air now got their stock in. But as I said before am not buying anything from them again.

Why don't you just get it serviced on a Saturday?

I trust the San F'do branch less than the POS branch. So I drop my wife's car off at POS on a Saturday when it needs to be serviced.

No. You are not going mad. I deleted it.

There was much much more to that incident and I made that post just out of frustration when I remembered the amount of stress the San F'do branch had caused to my wife and I just to sort out a simple repair.

When the very top management got involved, it was eventually sorted out amicably.
