Had to get tracking done and asked if they could identify what the knocking noise could be on my…read morecar which was to do with the front suspension, they have checked and noticed a part which was on its way out that another mechanic didn't identify. Got booked in a week later, on the day after changing the parts the noise has indeed reduced! But there was something else causing the clunking noise.. they gladly invited me to come back around a few hours later after i called in. We did a test drive with one of the mechanics who was very helpful; he has lifted up the car again and checked through again and has found that the previous mechanic didn't tighten the droplinks correctly. He has tightened them correctly and long behold the noise was completely gone! No extra charge and a lot of peace of mind!! Would recommend!

I recently brought my car to the Tyre and Service Superstore in Tallaght for a standard service…read more While I can't fault the mechanical work (as I'm obviously not a specialist, nor can I check it myself), the customer service aspect left a sour taste--to put it mildly. I received a call informing me that besides the service, both my tyres and brake pads needed replacing. Now, on the tyres, I'd seen them just before the service, and they look fine to me--easily another millimetre before they hit the wear indicators, so I've got time. As for the brake pads, the wear sensor light hasn't even blinked yet. The moment I gently declined the immediate tyre change, stating I'd monitor them, the whole conversation shifted. I was essentially attacked and condescendingly informed that I was "not a specialist" (a fact I had not disputed) and that he, the specialist, had a duty to inform me (which I had already acknowledged and accepted). When I re-confirmed that I was not replacing the tyres, the representative was visibly offended, becoming distinctly rude and unpleasant. To top it off, when I collected the car, it had been 'washed' but was left streaky on the outside and quite grubby on the inside. Perhaps my previous experiences have spoiled me, but a basic clean, or at least a wiped-down interior, seems to be standard practice at any respectable service centre. Ultimately, it felt less like a professional advisory service and more like a high-pressure sales tactic backed by outright rudeness. I appreciate being informed of potential issues, but I expect a professional response, not a petulant, aggressive reaction when I choose to manage my own maintenance schedule. przetlumacz mi na polski

Been here to buy new tyres and got into a pile of issues. I bought 2 new ones for the front and…read moreasked them to move my old front ones to the back as they were in better condition than the back ones, since they had much less mileage. As soon I got to the front desk, the guy just asked for my car key and took a note on a tiny paper about the service to be done, without asking for my name or even the registration plate... Very strange, as instead of having a printed form since I've booked and choose the tyres/service online he had to write it down there again! So, one hour later I arrived just to find out that they put the new tryes on the front as asked BUT trashed my front good ones and kept the back old worn ones! Not what I've asked, so had to demand for my good old ones and wait again to finish the job as requested, since now they had to find my good tyres and install those on the back. While doing that, the guys just elevated my car with a manual jack on the back wheels on the road without even gearing up by just using the hand brake... And since my hand brake doesn't work 100% I did feel that at same stage the car could move and land on the floor without wheels... Not good. Not professional! At the same time the wheel alignment on the website booking service shows 40€ and at the shop it's 50€. I explained that, and the manager didn't charge that, but prices should be clear enough and not having this basic mistakes as I shouldn't have to be explaining their errors! For last, I got 2 new tyres that are dirty, marked and scratched, probably from handling and drag them on the floor... They're new but they look OLD on the sides! I know, they are just tyres... but new stuff should look NEW!!!!

I got a puncture and I pulled into Red Cow Tyres. I got a replacement tyre and drove home to…read morekilkenny. My next journey in the car was to wexford and while on the motorway the car started shaking and making noise. I luckily got to a Renault garage and when my car was examined I was told that the tyre that had been put on by Red Cow Tyres had not been tightened or screwed in properly. I wa very lucky that the wheel had not come off when I was driving on the motorway. I phoned and spoke to someone who works at Red Cow Tyres but I was told that it is up to the customer to check the tyre is on properly after driving 30 miles. I have never heard of this and I know nothing about putting a tyre on. I had paid to get the tyre replaced and put on. I just want people to be aware of this situation asit is very serious and I was very lucky I didn't cause or be involved in a serious car accident because the wheel was not tightened properly.

He stuck my car up on the ramp removed my four wheels and replaced them with a nice set of wheels to keep me going for a few days while they stripped painted and hot baked my wheels. I have original 17" Audi wheels which were in pretty bad shape, when I got them back they were like the day I bought them. I couldnt believe it! I couldn't recommend these highly enough for the job they did on my alloy wheels or the hassle free way they operate this service. Like the L'oreal add my car looks three years younger :) I have been back since to Antan to get winter tyres for my wifes car. I was going to buy for wheels but Tony advised that I only needed two on the front. I got a great deal, two tyres and two new alloy wheels so as soon as summer comes back I can flip my old wheels back onto the car with no more future expense.

What looked as fast and reliable service turned into huge disappointment…read more Got two new tires balanced and fitted here. After driving away I noticed that the was a vibration on the steering wheel after reaching motorway speeds of over 100km/h Suspecting poor wheel balance went back to the garage. This time wheels were balanced by more experienced staff which was a bit surprise as I would suspect same level of quality regardless to who's doing it. I drove away but the problem persisted. Believing that the balance was done right I began to blame my new tires and even stared to suspect some suspension problems. After the trip to Cork I got fed up. The steering wheel kept vibrating like mad. Got back to Dublin and decided to get an independent check straight away. At the garage they took off the wheels leaving all the weights on the wheel to check the balance first. Results were astonishing Wheel balance was 35-40g off on each new tyre. Machine or human fault? Doesn't matter. Will never go back there again. Waste of time.

In January 2019, I bought a car from Airton Garage Tallaght. It was a 2008 BMW 520D. I was assured…read morethat there were no issues, apart from the tyres that were still legal, but needed changing soon. I accepted the car as such. After 2 weeks, I discovered some oil drops at two different locations underneath my car. I immediately informed Airton of this issue. They indicated it may be an overflow of a recent airbox replacement/repair and asked me to continue driving, while keeping an eye on it. When I got this advice, the mechanic in the background shouted to 'not take this car in for a repair', which made me a little weary. The car kept on dripping oil, so I went over again, asking them to have a closer look. After a few weeks I could come by, they had a look for a few days and said all was fine and they repaired the airbox. I picked up the car and continued driving it. I did notice more drops over the course of a few days, so reported it to them again. In the meantime, I needed a headlight replaced, so had the car checked over by Frank Keane BMW (30th of March 2019), as a car check was an option with BMW First. They noticed three leaks in total. Seeing as my original complaint was that I saw at least two distinct places where the leaks we ere seemingly originating, this did make sense. There is a leak at the dipstick, exhaust manifold and turbo. The next time I went over to Airton, I showed them the report and Mick (who I dealt with all through this), was aware of the dipstick, but had failed to notify me of this (he kept saying the issue was with an airbox. Furthermore, I did report at least two leaks after two weeks, so one or all leaks must have existed when I first reported it. Mick tends to disagree and says it is general wear and tear. Granted, I do drive a fair bit, but if he had addressed the issue upon me notifying, he would have a point. Again, two distinct oil leaks seem to exist from the very start. The oil leaks were bad enough for my workplace underground garage to put down some carton to catch the oil. In July, I went over again to get the oil leaks looked at and repaired. Mick seems to only want to address the dip stick one, which, again, he only admitted to once I had proven it with the report. Mick has taken a picture of the report from Frank Keane, which I mentioned earlier. Suffice to say, I still am waiting for the repairs to materialise. He has promised to call me back a few times, but no luck so far. Every time I go over, there is no possibility to book the car in, I always have to wait until the next week and hope he will then contact me. I have now waited a further 6 months after he said he would contact me for a repair. I don't think Airton really want to repair the car and hopes I will go away. I have checked and there is no way to email them as the WhoIs information has no details and there is no email address on the website as far as I could find. On top of that, I was led to believe he was part of SIMI, which gave me some confidence. I mean, if issues arise and there is a dispute with the garage, I am covered by SIMI, right? Wrong..... I reported the issue to SIMI and they had no record of Airton being a member. They promised to take appropriate action. See attached picture of the logo used on invoices. I think it is safe to say, I will not use Airton again for future car purchases and leave the reader to draw their own conclusions on the above.
