Reading this thread gave me a headache lol. For starters a warranty generally isn't worth the paper it is written on. For a car this age everything can be put down to wear which is not covered under warranty anyway. But if it makes you feel better then fair enough. My experience has taught me that a thorough check of the vehicle is far better than a warranty. For seconds there are heaps of owners here that don't have leaks, myself included. I'm sorry if you have had problems but there is no need for generalisation. Hope the experience improves for you

Point taken sorry about so many inputs people, just angry when u hand the cash over and get stuffed around sinergy seem good at this! been leaking and when i took the car in 2 get fixed they had it for 2-3 days and said they could not find anything, blaming it on my driving, temperature thing he stated maybe. when i took it home it leaked again straight away going in 4 round 2 monday? in future i will keep my thoughts 2 myself people. Warrenty is still handy better then nothing but regret getting it looked over!

Disappointing to hear they are stuffing you around. I get my car serviced there and have been pretty happy with the service and prices although they get a little expensive when they have to do anything more than standard.

You're right, warrenty is handy for piece of mind, hopefully they honour their commitments.

Perhaps have a search of the forums and see if anyone else has reported any leaks and what the problem was - you could then make these suggestions to sinergy to look at

Just want my car fixed!!!

Thanks mate strange thing is i have heard good things about sinergy but not coming my way:confused:

My research found that the torque converter seal is known 2 leak and seal cost $10 but labour is $1000 maybe thats why?

If nothing changes soon i will b searching legal matters, 2 top things off powersteering is making loud whind way louder then bros magna and mates legs?

Getting car inspected before i pick it up so i know they did the job and correctly, anyone know of anyone and how much?

You could get them to do a PS bleed or do it yourself (theres a thread about it somewhere, i used it). Although mine whines a bit since doing it :p

Good to hear the leak is sorted

Hey mate my legnum has same kind of noisy P/S. had P/S flush on mitsi mechanics recommendation. It didnt really make a difference but gave me a little piece of mind. Me thinks they are just prone to noise.
