What do people think of Midas car servicing?

[Fun_Bucket]

Midas well go somewhere else IMO. But i guess it varies form store to store, like most things. I won't go to one, simply due to a bad quote they once gave me. But then again, i've never been happy after anyone has worked on my car. Get a manual, and the bits and pieces that you need, and give what ever it is, a go yourself. That's my advice..

man, i couldnt agree more really. evey time i have something done to my car at a mechanic (which isnt all that often) i find myself looking at the work they did and thinking "damn, i could have done a better job than that if i wasnt so lazy"

Worked for midas in Mosman sydney for a whole of 2 weeks
I will never ever take my car to one the standard of work was low and bodgy oh and never ask for a brake test, this could be just this store thou

I'm thinking of getting my car serviced down at Midas but i don't know if their any good
at their job. Gonna get a major service done!

The only way to get a service done properly is to do it yourself. That said, they couldn't be any worse than your local Holden dealer! The last service I had done was on the SS before the waranty ran out, $245 for oil and a filter. The peanuts didn't even bother rotating the tyres which needed doing urgently. They did wipe some black stuff on the side walls of the tyres though!

if you want the job done right take it to a mechanic not an exhaust fitter who tries to be a mechanic and forgets to changes filters and cam belts etc etc etc etc (ex midas worker) be there done that seen that made a fuss about it and got the ass for stand up for the vehicle owner .
MIDAS stands for monkeys in disguse as servicemen......
