OK, well got the Lux back from Toyota today after having the relays fitted for the hazards... They tried to double charge me... First of all they said that it would cost about $100 for the installation. This was coz the relays were free under warranty but the labour was not due to the non Toyota bar... OK, so I agreed to pay... then the invoice staes $90.90 for fittment if front bar wiring... and $90.90 for fittment of relay switches and repair earth lead on AUX battery... now the wiring for the relays is the wiring for the front bar... so i refused to pay for that... as for the repair to the earth lead,... the "mechanic" took it upon himself to repair what he deemed to be a poor connection... not that it was falling apart... just didn't look neat... and then decided to charge me for it... without even giving me a call to get the OK... well needless to say I refused to pay and after about 30mins of arguing... now closing time... they just removed those charges and sent me on my way...
BTW.. I also asked them why their eng oil was $75 per 5L... and asked if it was synthetic... no was the answer just normal 20 / 40 W... think I will provide my own from now on... keep alert.. they will always try and sqeeze more cash out of you at every oportunity... Cheers TOMUCH
