Awful ....claimed work NOT done! Why not be honest and say you cant fix it?!Went in with an electrical fault...not diagnosed despite claims of diagnostic check and all was fine...next thing, phone call to say head needs to come off and valve seats checked. Stopped work, drove it to main dealer who diagnosed faulty coil pack instantly...cost me less to have checked and fixed than Wayside garage...despite OBVIOUS electrical issue....(When has a valve seat caused a fan to stay on)!!! Will not return calls, attended twice but mechanic not available...no refund offered...(never known anyone have so
