Pros: They have or had a bloke there who knows his stuff about alignments - Steve - i think.

Cons: I had the car BOOKED for an alignment and balance for 9am on a Saturday. I got there before 9:00. I told them I didn't have anything to do except wait for it to be done. They didn't even start on it till 10:30. Finished at 11:30.

After trying so many different places I thought i'd finally found a decent one, I won't be going back there again.

K-Mart Tyre and Auto Capalaba, QLD

Pros: Very happy with their service and prices on tyres. Been going for years and they have never done anything wrong.

Cons: None.

I wish there was someone here that is totally happy with their tyre service but located in Victoria!

<_<

Guni... how many times to do i have to say South Melbourne Tyres within ear shot of you! LOL

Great Service always! ask for Greg, and tell him Andy from Globe Sent you.

They sell camber bolts and do camber adjustments?

:rolleyes:

Guni if you want camber bolts PM me and I'll post you some.

Can vouch for Bob Jane at Springwood/ Underwood. They can be a bit slow and are always friggen busy but they are loyal to return customers with good deals. Cameron the owner(the BIG guy) is the man to speak to or Jason as he has been there since I started to deal with them over 10 years ago. Both have good knowledge and offer both the pro's and con's of individual brands and don't try and push you towards the brand they want to sell. Tell them what you want as far as performance/cost etc goes and they'll offer you the choices to suit you and your car. The correct choices as far as load ratings etc etc.

Saw Cameron on the biggest loser on tv last night! Wooo go Cameron!

      Rav4 2016 ZSA42R 2WD CVT failure

      Hi Andrew, just wanted to see if you were able to get this fixed? What was the issue in the end? My car has just started making this same noise (2016 Rav4 - 97000km) and I'm worried. I've had the transmission fluid checked and replaced but the noise is still there.

      05 hiace ecu

      Hi all, new member needing some help with an issue that has me stumped, replacing ignition and had a short somehow. Van would not crank or obviously start, found blown fuse and replaced, now car cranks but won’t start, no check engine light when ignition is first turned on and scan tool will not communicate with ecu. All fuses good except fuse 26 on instrument panel fuse box has no power. almost convinced my ecu is cooked but before outlaying for a new one thought someone may either advise another possible cause or confirm ecu likely the issue, appreciate any advise or experience similar.
