I was unfortunate enough to end up having my car serviced at Car Clinic and had a similar experience. They over-charged me for the parts (hey, who doesn't?) for what was a straight-forward replacement. The task was executed rather quickly, however the quality of the work was shoddy (and I'm being generous here). The car kept performing below par with different issues popping up every few weeks (which, as it later turned out, had to do with the faulty replacement job Car Clinic did in the first place). They charged me for subsequent trips, citing a different reason each time. I eventually went to a different garage and had it fixed up. Not withstanding their lack of professionalism, their staff was rude and not the best of communicators when it came to stating facts. If you're short of money, there are plenty of cheaper garages with honest mechanics that will serve you much better. Do yourself and your car a favour and don't take it to Car Clinic read more
