Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
Do you have any coolant leaking from the front of the engine? Mine did a couple of weeks ago and it was the o rings on the intake/filler neck. I thought it was the pump initially as the pump is immediately below it but after looking on these forums I found out it was the filler neck o rings.Nothing was said about the Thermostat and the gauge is not telling me there's an issue . Only o rings and water pump were mentioned, I bet the pump hasn't even failed.
Because part of the qualification for working at a stealership is being incompetent, along with ripping people off of course!^^ ...... so if it that easy, how come a Holden service centre took 3 days to do mine ?.
On booking it in for a 'routine' scheduled service, told me that there was no such thing as an AWD Crewman Cross 6, it must be a Colorado.
First day, fitted incorrect parts resulting in a leak when I got home.
Second day, fitted correct parts resulting in a leak, before I got it out of their yard.
Third day, success. But lost a long time customer due to their lack of knowledge, attitude and incompetance.
Lol I went Mitre 10 a few weeks ago and asked for emery. I was in the paint section and young bloke had to ask what was emery.Of course this isn’t limited to just stealerships. Went into a supercheap store one time (many years ago when they used to actually try and supply parts) with a PVC valve and said to the guy at spare parts “I need one of these”. His response (I kid you not) was “what’s that?” If you don’t know what a PCV valve is WTF are you doing working in an auto parts store.
I think part of the problem now is that most people only stay in jobs for 5 minutes before moving on to the next one (either from their choice or the employers choice). Enthusiasm doesn’t seem to count for much these days either unfortunately. It’s all about jumping through the education hoops where you learn conformance and not critical thinking.Lol I went Mitre 10 a few weeks ago and asked for emery.

Emery cloth lol, that's almost understandable since it went out of fashion about 40 years ago. Now you have to ask for sandpaper and then specify what colour you want. The white stuff is pretty sexy for sanding paint!Lol I went Mitre 10 a few weeks ago and asked for emery. I was in the paint section and young bloke had to ask what was emery.
yes I do but it's not hit the ground in a year it's that slow.o you have any coolant leaking from the front of the engine?
