All.... I have somewhat of a problem with my dealer.... heres the story...
My S was new in June 2003, and has since covered 31k.... at 30k the second service was due, so I duly took the car into my dealer to have the work done... heres the problem... when I picked it up it hadnt been washed, annoying but no real problem, I drove it home to find it was whistling at 70mph... a week later I took it back and it was apparantly due to a micro filter not being attached properly...
anyway on Saturday I had a BMP intake fitted at another garage, and this was when I discovered the following, below is a picture of the air intake that was removed... this air filter has supposedly done 1,000 miles since the service.... It looks to me like it was never touched, whats anyone elses opinion ?....

The dilema I have is how many other parts of the service havent been done ?... was the oil and filter changed ?... etc etc... I also have to explain why I have got a different intake to standard....
