In December my son took my car in for repairs. The reason being that we found there to be oil floating in the water of the radiator. Paarlberg BMW quoted us on this and we let them fix the problem. It costing us R5800 . This spending almost half of our Christmas savings on the car which was totally okay seeing as it was for getting my car fixed. This was after all "Paarlberg BMW" whom I thought would do a proper job. While I was away on vacation with my wife, they "fixed" the car and returned it to my son who was at work at the time. My son informed me a few days later that the problem is still there and I told him not to drive it. I got home but had to leave for work again. My wife than took the car back to them and they told her the radiator needs to be flushed once every week for 3 weeks, which would've cost us more money every time. This was totally unacceptable seeing as the car was suppose to be fixed. Than later there was another problem; the car was loosing water which they than told us it needs a new radiator cap which we bought. However the car is still loosing water causing it to overheat. Now they tell us it will cost R35000 to fix it, Money that I don't have.
