I was on my way from Cape Town to Mossel Bay for a nice holiday break. On arriving in Mossel Bay, I heard a knocking sound and vibration coming from the front area of the vehicle. I then immediately searched around for shops that provide mechanical services. Not knowing the area, I asked around and finally came to JJ Motors. I then spoke to Kobus who is the owner and he offered to have a look at the vehicle. He took it for a test drive and then told me that it is the inner cv and it needs to be replaced (R1100). So I left the car there, an hour and a half later, he phones me to say it is the crown and pin bearings in the gearbox and the gearbox needs to be replaced (R8000). I told him I don't have that kind of money, and he said I should fix it or else I won't make it back to Cape Town. I told him I don't have the money. I drove the car away, just around the corner I found a place that offered to check it out for a second opinion. They immediately told me it was the wheel bearing and it costs R1100 to replace. Had it replaced and the car was sorted. KOBUS IS A LYING CHEAT!!! PLEASE DO NOT BELIEVE HIM! He will you to make more money!!!
