Bad Experiences With Parknfly At Sydney Airport?


Recommended Posts

Hi

I am discussing with them what I believe is damage from leaving my car there (details to follow once cleared up) and wondered if anyone else had any experiences to speak of. Please PM me if you think its going to cause the thread to be locked.

If you have worked there, or know anyone I would also like to talk to you.

Cheers

Ned

I've used them heaps of times, and never had a problem with them.

I NEVER leave my skyline there though. I always borrow the g/f's car. I just dont trust ANY other people with my car unless its a trusted mechanic or similar though. It's much easier to take the temptation out of their hands :mad:

But with regards to your issue, I guess damage is inevitable considering the number of cars they need to shuffle around all day. It's just a matter of whether they're willing to accept fault in the unfortunate case it does happen :)

Ive seen and reported people jacking cars, wheels from there..

Had my 325i parked there new m3 next to it, come back to my car to find them jacking the m3's wheels (night time) they got what they deserved... even with the security cameras they can do that!?

I've used them heaps of time also (not with the Skyline though) and never had a problem, so I'm a little dissapointed to hear of other peoples bad experiences...might think twice before using them again.

Hope you get things sorted Ned

Hi all,

thanks for the messages, they do help believe me. I have used them heaps of times and always believed that they looked after the cars, but a recent experience suggest they may have a few loose cannons.

I havent experienced any bumps or scrapes (although a mate did), however I believe they may have moved my car around the park a little enthusiastically resulting in damage.

Any more experiences would be welcome by PM or the forum.

Cheers

Ive used them heaps of times. Ive got a company car so i dont give a shit if it gets a few knocks.

The only problem ive had: The first time i ever used them i left a new bottle of my mother expensive perfume in the centre glove box. When i returned it was not there. I guess there was not much i could do about it!!

hmm problem with all car parks is they will not offer to accept responsibility for any damage. how would you prove it was their fault and the car was not damaged when you left it there?

As Kel mentioned I park there every week and have had 2 scrapes now, the worst means we need a new front bar on the 350z. I didn't follow it up even though it is worth a couple of hundred :sleep: ..... I previously had a car stolen from a "secure" car park and they did nothing about it would not even provide security footage to the cops.

Now days I just leave the ute there. They are more likely to damage their building than dent the navara.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
