Did they charge you anything?
If so, take it back and tell em to put it back together.
If not, then yeah, take it elsewhere..

What a hopeless shop, they should be out of business!

As Chris asked, did they charge you anything? I certainly hope not!

No they didn't charge for the bits they gave back, we have put back together just to get a idea of physical size(obvious bits not returned in the guts of the alternator).Another mob said they can get us a new unit for $350 so have ordered, it comes with a oval plug hopefully I can get/make a adaptor cable to my round plug ( as per an earlier thread)so with a bit of luck should be back on the road in a day or so

Make sure your power steering pump isn't leaking or it'll just happen all over again.

Hey Anthony, good to hear you got your car mobile again. Mine's still in the workshop, waiting for the mechanic to try and work out what's up.

Found some good sources of after-market parts in perth after about 100 phone calls. Let me know if you ever need any help with that.
