ok, i got a kpro, no dramas there. Went and contacted a few honda dealerships, and finally found one who would listen - I said to the guy, i have a Type S and I have installed a Type R ecu in my car and just simply need the new ecu rekeyed to my immobliser. the guy on the line said u got kpro? im like yes, and he said he cna link them up and a quote price is $96. booked ina time first thing in the morning @ 7:30am. I got there at 7, as I'll rather wait for people instead of people waiting for me.
I drive into the service center and this guy greets me, He was like, we'll get this sorted for u in no time.
47 minutes later, the guy says there is a problem, his HDS (Honda Diagnostic Tool) cannot read my immobliser... i;'m thinking in my head, no shit.... hence why i bought my laptop with K Manager installed, along with instructions from Hondata, as well as my oem priamry o2 sensor and type s ECu for god knows what.
result was he expected me to pay the full amount of $96 even though they didnt do shit. his word was "absoutely".
so I had shit to do midmorning so i paid it and made sure I didnt lose the receipts.
What should I do guys?
How should I attempt to get my money back.
Right now, I want the full amount back, but their gonna spring that diagnosing labour time bullshit on me... and in that regard, fair enough, but to quote me $96 for the actual rekey, and I got charged full amount... I should have been charged way less than that for a diagnostic.. but in regards to that diagnostic.. I went to the service center where the guy said he could do it, the guy was standing there when i drove in, wouldnt he autotmatically realise that my immobliser would already have had to be disabled for me to drive. From that, wouldnt a person be proactive and determine that k manager would be needed to reenable it to key up to the new immoabiliser. From this standpoint, this is the whoole reason why i am shitty at the guy.
I am that pissed off at the moment I just dont want my car anymore. Who would waste another person's time and effort like that, let alone their money.
