took my car in a couple of days ago for MOT - failed on a brake pipe (supposed to be 'excessively corroded') exhaust blowing (not noticeable to me), headlight adjustment (never been touched since the last MOT) and 'no reserve travel' on the handbrake.
Garage charged to do the light, the exhaust, and the brake pipe.
I adjusted the handbrake - it locks on four clicks and can be forced up to seven.
Garage failed it again on the handbrake 'no reserve travel', and wants more money (70 quid) to sort it.
I think I'm being conned here. I asked for the brake pipe that they replaced and is has only a small amount of corrosion on it - I've seen much worse go through a test.
Now they seem to want to scam me on the handbrake. What constitutes 'no reserve travel'? - surely three clicks after fully locking the wheels is sufficient?
Any point making an official complaint about all this?
thanks
