Yeah I think I will just go to Trading Standards anyway now just so this sort of thong can't happen to anyone else!

Give him a few days to refund the money, then go to trading standards and any garage association that he may belong to.

Also name and shame here.

Air guns are nasty.............We get so many people at work who have had a tyre replaced and then when they wanted to take wheel off, found that the stud was cracked. Too much reliance on air guns to do nuts up. Spanner and a torque wrench.
Can be a right pain on certain vehicles when the wheel stud isnt available on its on, for ex. Ford Mondeo 2000-2008, the rear studs come only with a new hub!!

He wasn't there today. Surprise surprise. I will get my money back and I will report him as well as I don't want anything to happen to someone else!!
Also when the 'new' garage did the correct ball joints today they told me he hadn't done the top suspension mount up properly either........the guy is a F**king liablilty!

All sorted now tho, and I see what people have been saying about the Yoko's in the wet........not very good at all.

One last thing to do is to replace the outer track rod ends, but they are not at a dangerous level at the moment so will wait until I get paid!!
