On the 21st of October 2024 I experienced jerking and a lose of power on a Ford Fiesta 2005 1,4. I took the vehicle to Noise Boys in Pretoria North and was informed that it could possibly be the catelitic converter starting to block and paid R650 to get it removed. After removal of the catelitic converter the problem persisted and I took it to a mechanic and he eventually found a cracked spark plug as part of the problem. During the diagnostic test a fault code , stating a defective lamda sensor. On inspection the lamda sensor was found damaged during the removing proses of the cat. I was also not informed that a mini cat needed fitment to bypass the computer reading the missing catelitic converter. The total repair after the catelitic converter removal came to R3800.00. On return the worker ( young still wet behind the ears) was extremely arrogant and I decided to get another supplier , Die Graaf in Pretoria North to rectify the poor welding workmanship. I was informed that noise boys was in proses of a company sale. I told them that who ever buy is buying a sinking ship.
