I believe Full Throttle Mechanics tried to squeeze as much money as possible out of me. They suggested a whole lot of things to be done with my car. Some of them were definitely problems that needed to be fixed, whilst others were just not the case. They suggested that my new timing belt had never been changes and needed doing ASAP. It is less than 5000km old and they told me twice it hadn't been done in the previous service. The only thing I did ask them to quote on, was new spark plugs, but they didn't come up with a quote, and instead focused on other things. I took my car to another mechanic on Saturday (2 days later) and he was pretty scathing of the report they gave me, and the suggestions made by this workshop. I hope that other people haven't falledn into this trap and have been tricked by the friendly nature of the staff.
