Title: Britpart stockists - info required on exhausts
Post by: v8kenny on March 05, 2007, 21:49:00
Any one on here on personal speaking terms witha Britpart stockist ?
To cut a long story short I need to find out if I am being spun a story by a Britpart dealer in Tyne and Wear
I ordered a stainless steel replacement centre exhaust section that does away with middle silencer for a 200 tdi 90 about 3 weeks ago
when it didnt arrive after a week I phoned to be told they had sent the wrong part (air filter ? ) - I never received this and was told it had "got lost" !
Said they would send correct part on Mon - by Frid no sign so phoned again
This time I was told that Britpart had made 1000 of these pipes and they were ALL two inches short ! (this is the bit I need confirming )
They were going to look into it over weekend and phone me today - guess what - no phonecall   :roll:
Getting peed off now and would just like to find out if I am getting fed a family sized portion of BS or not before I take this further
Anyone heard any stories about these pipes ?

Thanks Mike (and Matty) - any info greatly appreciated
According to my "supplier"  Britpart have recalled all 1000 replacement pipes
I was told it is only 200tdi 90 pipes that are 2" short - can't help feeling I'm being spun a story though !  :wink:

Any joy with phoning your ex boss Mike ?
Still no reply from the stockists today - I want to wait and see if any one knows they are telling porkies or not before I contact them with my opinions !  :wink:
