Well i got my r32 checked out by Gavin Woods Autotek at labrador..
I was happy with the work he did, however he did tell me a problem that was not a problem, and charged me for a data inspection i did not recieve, however i havnt had a chance to speak to him about this..
it will cost you $60 for the inspection and another $60 if you want a data stream OR a compression test.
Take it to gavin, one you have put a deposit down .. (write up a contract stating you want the full depost refunded if it does not pass the mechanical inspection to your liking)
this is a legally binding contact and will last 3 months, therefore he can not let anyone look at it or sell it to anyone for 3 motnhs while he still have your money.
sure ita an hour south, but if he wants to sell you the car, he will be willing to do so
