I hope it all turns out alright. Not having your car is a downer, garage charges are another. Just one of them things. Good luck w everything.

umm Faisal my estimate to have my car CHECKED is KD100 not the repair fee. They will check my car for KD100 and then call me and tell me how much my car will cost to fix…

you wouldn’t unless you drive in Lebanon or europe. the roads there are different then kuwait, here its all about straight lines there its all about curves so european cars handle better on those roads. so we all grow up wanting european cars and the german ones like bmw and mercedes are the ones we strive to get.

And this is why you should’ve bought a Lexus. Or an Infiniti. Anything from Japan, basically.

Jafar , i will need to disagree with you.
Firstly if you need to deal with a setup like this , has to be perfectly planned. For example . for my cars. the guy i deal with doesnt end up doing al lthe things him self.

1. If its a job in his specialisation , he would do it .

2. he would end up buying parts from the car dealer. usually employees gets discounts , these discounts are passed to you.

3. For items which require tools which he doesnt have . he would refer it back to the company…

But i dont think paying KD 100 is worth for small tasks. Unless it pleases to be ‘raped’ as mark mentioned.

What BMW do you have..?

Mark,
I would not take Rayboy’s advice.It is un-ethical but most importantly you will have no documents to support you in case he really missed up with something major,,,,plus the work done on a vehicle is not just mechnics work ! many other profesionals are envolved.Most cars now ,,,specially the suffisticated ones like BMW you can’t even touch them without the Factory diagnostic System,,,,to aviod a mechanic’s trial & error approach will at the end will cost you much more !
Good Luck
