Cayman Audio Upgrade

I had an audio upgrade to my Cayman. Their advice was good, price was good, they also did a few extra bits within the quote and the upgrade has transformed to sound quality. I would definitely go back. I also had to call them back after a piggyback fuse came out when I took the fuse cover off to get to the OBD port. A quick call and they remembered the car from a few days ago and were able to direct me to the correct fuse over the phone. Would use again

Tracker and Digital Media System

Motorhome now fitted with Tracker and updated Media System. They asked to understand what was fitted and defined updated systems that would fit. Decided on Panasonic. All fitted in afternoon.
Very happy with all working well.
Thanks all

Automotive control awful customer service

I booked my car into automotive control to automate my tailgate on my new van. I took the day off work and travelled 1h45 to Bristol.
When I collected my van I was shown around all the new functions of my electric tailgate, which were all working fine. But it wasn’t until I was driving home that I realised that my internal van lights weren’t working and that they had obvious missed reconnecting them when they were finishing the work on the tailgate.
I contacted the company the same day via email (as they were closed by the time I was heading home) and told them of the fault and explained that because I lived such a distance away it wasn’t possible for me to being the van back for them to rectify the issue and that I would need to take it to someone local to get the light reconnected and would they please reimburse me any reasonable costs incurred.
Not only did they refuse to do this, when I said how disappointed I was with their post work customer care they then said they should have charged me more for the work they completed (something nobody mentioned on the day) and that they were looking into charging me more money rather than reimburse me!
So disappointed as I was really happy leaving with my van that day but the follow up care is just shocking.
Do not use this company if you expect any customer service.

A Belated Warning

A belated warning to those thinking of having a towbar fitted by Automotive Control, Bristol. They fitted a removable tow bar to my vehicle some months back. Unfortunately, they failed to inform me at any time (either during my initial inquiry or during the tow bar fitting process) that there would be a requirement to cut and remove a piece of the vehicle’s body work. Had I been informed of this requirement, I would most certainly not have gone through with the fitting of the tow bar, as I only wanted to mount a cycle carrier. I expressed my shock and surprise at the time of collecting my vehicle, but was informed that the work had been necessary.

The hole that’s been cut is twice the size that it needs to be, is excessively off centre, ragged in appearance, and aesthetically has made a mess of my vehicle’s body lines. I have also been informed by my vehicle manufacturer that the removal of part of the vehicle body work was unnecessary as there is a tow bar available on the market which can be fitted without the requirement to deface any of the body work. Automotive Control also failed to re-fit the body panel correctly, i.e. several press studs missing.

Excellent Service, prompt and friendly - Fully Recommend

I had a detachable tow bar with OEM electrics fitted to an Audi Q5. The staff we're polite, efficient and helpful.

The job was completed quickly and tidily, the price was competitive.

The dust cap wasn't fitted but was immediately supplied by a very helpful team.

Fully recommend
