two weeks ago i took micra for 3 part clutch change normally i would have done the job myself but injury to arm stoped me from doing so.....towards the end of last week on starting the engine there was a metalic grinding sound as if the realese bearing wasnt releasing properly so had my little rant about it and today it was getting worse so i thought go get one and do the job myself that way i know its done correctly.....as I had bonnet up i thought may as well clean plugs and check oil HORROR not a drop of oil in her strange no warning light to tell me no oil yet i had just done full service 2 weeks prior to it going in for clutch, it dont burn oil in fact it never uses a drop or it didnt......I went under car to further investigate and no leaks inspected drain plug tight but a little splodge of old oil around it gearbox nothing......2+2 = 4 garage has drained the wrong one said nowt and forgot to refill it what else can it be. Off I went to garage asked who they had working on car they told me one of them was a skill training lad he should not be touching anyones car un supervised i said you have knackered my engine pointing the finger, they denied any wrong doing so now i have the only magic nissan micra in the whole country it gets rid of its engine oil god knows where and runs with none in for a week or two......just as well im planning upgrade looks like i have no choice now.......so guys any work you get done at any garage dont be affraid to inspect your car with the mechanics present before and and after you get it back any thing your not sure of ask and allways stand your ground dont just take there word that everything is ok......**** turpin wore a mask we should have a name them and shame them section:down: :down: :down:
