Hubby took his car in to get repairs done on his Subaru WRX. He took my car in for a basic service as well. Cannot fault the friendly service we received at the front reception area, but we were unimpressed when they advised hubby that he needed CV boots replaced and had recommended we get the parts from a local CV specialist which we did. We took the boots back to Midas and were advised that they were the wrong boots and would not fit on the joint or whatever part it needed to go on (and they're the ones who recommended the specialist to us!). So we went back to the CV specialist who was surprised they said that as he then said he'd fit it on the part himself for free which he did within 20 minutes. Hubby was so grateful he gave him $20 anyways which is what he'd normally charge to fit it. We went back to Midas and showed them that the boots were in fact the right ones and hubby was really not impressed by that stage especially as they were already tampering with his Subaru so he questioned whether their mechanics actually knew what they were doing, not to mention that they had better not charge more labour time for the runaround we were doing on their behalf in getting the boots fitted! The basic service on my car was $149 but amounted to $240 as they replaced an air filter ($56), bulb ($10) and engine flush ($25) plus GST. They also said I needed to replace my water pump and rear shock absorbers as well as engine mounts. Turns out I didn't need to worry about my engine mounts but definitely needed water pump and shock absorbers done (a month later I took my car in to another mechanic to confirm the repairs as when I got my car back from Midas the next day my car engine light started going off all the time and my car would 'jump' a bit every time I would brake). They also gave a list of 'extra' repairs required on hubby's car which we are going to have to question also now especially after the debacle with the CV boots.
