BEWARE Freeway Service Center LTD Isle of Sheppy Kent
As you know, I have a new car (to me).
Last week I had a problem with the car not using ad blue so I had a count down for when the car would not start again for 500 miles. Panic set in, I phoned JLR to get it booked in for a service and do the repair.
I was told nothing available until the end of October.
I have used Freeway Service centre before so gave them a call if they could fit me in to plug in a scanner (I already plugged in my IID tool so knew what the problem was)
All pointed to the sensor not working.
The quote was £510 + vat, ouch. I need the car so go ahead and order it, it can be fitted in two days.

That was last week, Yesterday the wife and I had a run down the coast about 40 miles all going fine we went in for some lunch came out, after I started the car the engine management light came on, and I plugged in the IID tool which Came up with



unauthorised something or the other and the fault would not be cleared.

By this time I have been registered with Land Rover Assist, They came out I told my story and the guy checked out the replacement part.


THE PART WAS NOT REPLACED it turns out it was a broken wire that they repaired badly see photos and fell apart Tey was not even water protected the auto-mechanic refixed the wire cleared the fault code and all is good to go.

So why charge me £510 + vat to repair a wire? robbing

So beware of Freeway service centre on the Isle of Sheppy Kent

The last two photos are what fell apart.

you need to upload your pics to your gallery (see red 'Gallery' in top right of screen)

If you paid by Credit card, contact the card company to rescind the payment. Or contact Trading Standards who will advise you how to proceed.

I have already sent the form off with all the supporting photos and paperwork.

That is indeed a bodge, however, what did they say they had replaced and what was the DTC you read? what you are showing in the photo is the DEF metering valve, not a sensor. All I'm saying is that the 'bodge' may have been a pre-existing one and not related to the repairs.

phoenix has made a very good point i think it may need looking into a bit more before you start shouting. who does this type of work does no one care anymore new vehicle purchase
