Default Thank you to RCM

I have had some tweaks made to my 2005 sti and got it back at the weekend, wow what a difference to before! Can't thank the guys at Roger Clark's enough now I have the peace of mind that's everything is spot on. After a new ECU and some tweaks within the engine bay ( pics to follow) I couldn't be happier with the results! Roll on 2014 and the summer

I believe I paid around £800 but I had the rear shocks re-greased at the same time , can't remember if that included a small service too. To be honest they are the only people who I trust with my car , at the end of the day I know it may cost me a few quid extra but for peace of mind I've never had an issue with anything on my last 3 impreza's ...

I sold my last impreza to picklemaroo, folder full of RCM receipts , I got what I wanted for the car, and she got a cracking car extremely well maintained, I'm sure she would agree I was not so lucky on my latest and I may have some info on a 'big name' in the subaru community that may make you think twice, depending on their response to my situation that they put me in. Obviously everyone will have their own opinion but all I can report is my own experience, the lies I was told and go from there. Hope they can explain their sloppy worksmanship that has taken months and £1000's to put right

RCM work is quality I have used them numerous times back in the days.I never used to ever talk about the money side of things though,as long as you are happy with there work and service that's all that really matters,that's like paying to go into a posh restaurant really enjoying the food and then complain that it was not the same price as the harvester up the high streetNice car by the way.SJ.

It's in good hands now, give it a few years and you could always buy it back although I'm not sure I could replace it with anything better...
