im after 2.0 inners and ive got custom shafts ones from lmf i think
i went into another shop today near my work and the guy said i need a registration aswell whats the world coming to its only a inner cv joint lol
Why the hell would he need your reg. Is this a new thing ive not heard of.
i know mate even my mate has just tried for me at another shop and guess what the same thing
It gives them all the details of the car and only lists the parts for that one car. Means bigger chance of them getting the right part.
You should just be able to tell them its a 2ltr cav though
edit. did you tell them its a nova? if you did thats the problem, they cant work out that parts from a cav will fit anything else!
what a bunch of c**ks. never ever had that down here, only sometimes at main dealers and not motor factors.
the big block cv's are all the same on all calibra's, 2.ltr cavy's, and 2ltr astra's. its not exactly hard for them as they are all the bloody same.
if he wasnt the manager i would have proper kicked up sh1t gone mad lol.

i know it gives them the details so its easier to get parts for it. but all the big block ones are the same i did say to him that i need cav or astra ones but still no joy

yeah mate asked both of the shops and they wouldnt show me. im gonna buy a few extra when i finally get some.then throw them through there window then tell them thats the part and run off very fast lol
why not just nip into your nearest vauxhall dealer, might be dearer but boots will last 10 times longer.

been in there mate they said they dont do them no more
hmm, i bought some a couple of months back, find it difficult to believe they've been deleted? They're the same on mk3 astras and some mk4's.
Ive heard this happening a few times now,not just this part,where they cant be ar5ed to go through the lists so they just say "no longer available"
Think this is a clear case of this
i went in there on tuesday and the guy said they dont do them no more. i even asked him for some details on there ie the code numbers so i can ask my shop and he said they are deleted off the system

thats the same thing i was thinking
That sort of thing really fu*ks me off, they could have potentially made a sale, but were obviusly way too lazy. The dealership where i used to work were always helpful, and would even try a dealer search to locate it at any other dealers who had it in stock, even though it was nls.

i know mate it happend to me the other week. when i was after a sandwich plate bolt they said the dont do them but when Ste L on here give me the part number they said oh right we do,do them
might be worth getting hold of someone on here with epc and getting the part numbers for the boots then.
try the small scruffy looking motor factors, they will have books.
I am continually amazed when vauxhall dealers do the 'no longer done' routine. my local dealer is great whenever I ask for any nova bits.

My Vaux dealer is always helpful aswell, but I live 2 streets away from a "small scruffy" motor factors :D.
the motorfactors is always very helpful i use, couldnt do enough for you
there was a really good one near me a few months ago but the blok sold it to a property developer what ever you needed he had or could get ooooooh i love them dayz lol
Its just someone being lazy, its the same at my work.
One guy is a lazy funk and never likes looking anything up in the books...
