Going to the dealer today to pick up the Super8. He replaced the passenger pegs (as the springs which pop them out were broke) and he said that fixed it. WTF? I asked them to test ride it again and they called yesterday to say it was ready and they tightened a muffler shield and it is fixed. What do I think? I think it's BS. I'm going to scoot the 50 mile trip home and we'll see how it performs. If that sound comes back on the ride today, I think I'll strangle somebody.
Please, put down your pistol, and step away.
I would arrive early enough to take it around the block, and if its still making that metal/metal noise - ride it right through the front doot of the shop up to the service desk.
But, ya know - I ain't having much luck lately diagnosing scoot issues - so maybe these guys have it sorted for you.
I'm not sure which is worse - a shop that won't fix something for you - or one that says they have when they haven't. Poor devils are so sure of themselves and are all smiles when they hand you the keys.
I used to have a VW shop that often said "You didn't need that fixed, so we didn't."
So, I went something like 8 yrs with no speedo cable - got very good at judging my speeds.
The big stuff they were good at - little stuff didn't get them excited.
Good luck.....surely your scoot will be 100% and DO keep us posted. This is like a mini-series (but more interesting)!
