  1. Is the pdi check worth it, or is it just just an employees random sampling of hereing a saw screem...! I meen we dont buy a hoover from an outlet,, and watch them unbox it,, plug it in and start hoovering the store... Etc. Is this stihls / husqvarnas policy / or the dealers.. And this is where my problem now lies. A Cold start seizure.. doesnt mean its fully seized,, just scored the piston & dammaged rings.. Meaning lack of power, bad idleing, stalling.. and genrally f@@ked...! And this is what i was passed over the counter Can we demand a non pdi-check or would this void our warrenty...
  2. Im pushing all the write buttons here,,, e-mails / reports / cab / findings / reports / Demanding a replacement / which / My button works.. but farr too many ear defenders swtched on...! Yep.. ill swallow this £400.00, but ive done over 10k with seddons i find them a good deal... Just ashame they cannot admit..! there loss,, next time... // Every time... Ill find it on the next job...

  6. O.K Here we go,, just got of the phone from stihl (direct) to be told its not there issue,, the issue is with the dealership ( seddons ) They ( stihl ) take No actions,, whatever the situation... Seddons are refuseing to replace,, only repair 2month waiting... Even thou they mite of blown up a new saw,,, or its just faulty.... Stihl are aware of this post on arbtalk... and dont care...! And thats public relations....!
  7. Yep..!! i spoke to stihl direct today,, in request of replacement or money back... as its a day old,, i im propsing,, its damaged from pdi check misconduct..... Yet to get a reply... seddons are refuseing any of the above... Stihl wont hold there hands up for replacement... Havent got the time to play games,, But hay-ho here we go...

  10. Heres a thought,,, having purchased many saws from new,, watching this happen at my local stihl dealers,, with my new saw,, he pdi checked it...! Fuel up /oil then start,, wacked it up on full revs ( first start mind) for what seemed like 20/30 seconds,, No warm up / tick over period... Turned it of then passed me it..... Really...! or do we find that exeptable with your £1000.00 saw.. 500i... Thoughts on this one... may be this is why my new ms151 didnt run correct on site.... after one day,, of little use its back in for repair,, because its fucked.... Stihl dealer, Seddons / castleford / west yorkshire
  11. Yep..! had mesh / key hole in feb,, this year,,, back climbing after 6 weeks.... did try and go easy, but in our industry.. there is no easy.. 5/6 months in small twitcher... but holding up...
