- ✓Approval for scope changes
- ✓Invoice and repair warranty
Start with symptoms and diagnosis
Provide the make, model, year, warning lights and symptoms. Ask whether diagnostic work is charged separately and what evidence supports a proposed repair.
Identify the exact parts basis
Ask whether quoted parts are original, OEM-equivalent, aftermarket, new or reconditioned, and confirm labour separately. Agree that material scope changes require approval before work continues.
Check the car before collection
Review the invoice, replaced items, warning lights and any stated warranty. Ask what to do if the original symptom returns after collection.
Separate diagnosis from repair approval
Provide the vehicle details and symptoms you actually know, including when the issue appears and any recent relevant work. Ask what the initial inspection covers, its charge and which findings will be explained before repairs are proposed. Request approval before parts or work are added. A reported symptom or workshop listing does not establish the diagnosis, required parts or safe condition of the vehicle.
Keep the proposed parts and exclusions visible
Ask the written quote to identify proposed parts, their stated type, labour, fluids, testing, tax and excluded work. Clarify completion timing as an estimate until confirmed, how additional findings change the quote, and the applicable written follow-up terms. Request a record of completed and unresolved items. Do not treat an inspection quote or an opened contact link as approval to perform unspecified repairs.
