Terrible service and customer service skills. I took my car to Arbury Leamington Spa for an interim service and explained at time of booking that I would like them to check a fault on my alarm that occasionally sounds for no reason. I was told that normally that is a separate service but they would do a basic check within the interim service. Well 1.5 hours after having the car the interim service is complete @£179.00 - I asked what was flagged up on the alarm fault. “Well Sir that will be £118.00 to investigate that” – funny as according to the Skoda website the interim service includes “Diagnostic check including report” so after complaining, and informing them that I was told they would have a basic look, and that it is meant to have a diagnostic check during the service, I was told by James, and after being talked over and me getting angry, that it is an alarm sensor fault. Great, I assumed it was a sensor fault as that’s why it’s going off unnecessarily! I was also informed that the Air Con wasn’t at full cooling capacity by Cheryl, and that it would need to be serviced. I was surprised as I spent a lot of money the previous year to have it serviced, and so asked that it be done again free of charge as I had had it done 12 months prior. “Oh let me just check that Sir”. Low and behold “we cannot service it again, we will need to charge a further investigation service to check that” – strange as they wanted authorisation to service it at my expense just minutes earlier. Well at this point I am losing all confidence in them as an authorised Skoda dealer. Especially as last year during the full service I was told that the rear washer jet needed cleaning, but I said not to do so at £70 they quoted - as whilst it wasn’t great before going in to Arbury, it was adequate to put liquid on the rear screen. Well it came out not working at all! I should really have complained then, but along with this latest episode, and the fact my car did not come back particularly well cleaned, I will not be returning... Quite comically on the Skoda website it states – “Skoda, servicing with added value!”

Ditto. I had a "Front Assist" warning, but the car had an extra cable by the OBD socket the previous (corporate) owner had installed for a black box. Arbury Skoda Leamington Spa quoted £240 for two hours work to trace the extraneous cable, when if they'd just looked at it for 30 seconds - like I did when I got home - they'd have seen that it just went into the OBD socket by the pedals. They wouldn't even plug the diagnostic computer in - claiming (not unfairly) that they couldn't trust the diagnostics with that cable in place. That's not very pragmatic though. A different local garage were happy to plug their diagnostic computer and what it returned was very sensible (included when the battery had gone flat recently, and showing that "Front Assist" fault was because the radar thought it wasn't vertically aligned correctly). Arbury Skoda gave the impression that they were just trying to make work for themselves. I've have been happy for them to say "This is what the on-board diagnostics are saying, but we can't be certain that's correct until we've removed the extra cable. We've had a quick look and it just goes to the OBD socket and will cost £x to remove it and return the OBD wiring to factory standard."

To be fair you sound like a right miserable cunt. Just pay £30 to service your air con… which probably doesn’t work as you’re too tight to switch it on 😅 No use = it leaks

There is only one cunt here, the one who thinks he's a real comedian - fuck off and get a life you prick
