Hi Dobby/All,

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't a bent propshaft cause vibra=
tion any time you're moving and in gear?

Regardless of the answer to that question, I still suggest to get that car =
out of there pronto, right now, do not delay! If you can find a driveline s=
pecialist, get them to look at it and document what's wrong in writing.

Only once your car is out of that garage and you have a second opinion, you=
 can then decide what to do. Right now, you're having to base your decision=
s on what those moron monkey lads are telling you. Why should you believe t=
hem? They've already demonstrated incompetence, stupidity, and bad attitude=
s=2E

Cheers,
Brady

  The latest facts:

  1.The rear part of the shaft is bent

  2.Vibrations -only while accelerating

  3.Coasting does not produce vibrations

  4.Driving up to 50km/h is sustainable.

  I have two options now:

    a.. to pay the bill and my damaged car
    b.. to go on with repairs- an used shaft in place of mine shaft
  I have no experience paying for damages yet,

  Should I pay them or what are my options?

  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  Dobby
