Motor Cade Motorsport

really bad after sale service. Used them 3 times before, twice I had to tighten my own boost clamps in front of their shop where they "forgot" to do it themselves, I thought to let it go, small issue. Now had a clutch replacement 5k labour and was told gearbox was cleaned, I found oil on the gearbox, told they washed only the front, I then find oil on the front and told I need to pay R2000 labour to clean and find source of leak. That is shocking. Once they have your money, good luck with any after sale service or assistance. Car exhaust was tightened skew and rattling. Recommend giving them a skip, not what they used to be.

Had my screamer pipes from the waste gates plumbed back into the exhaust and it turned out absolutely perfect! A custom single piece prop shaft was also manufactured and fitted, as well as a bunch of other work which has really made the car a massive pleasure to drive. Very professional service and exceptional workmanship!

From a R40 000 estimate to get an already fitted engine running, to spending R250 000 on faults identified by Wessel Matthee the owner, which now cause major problems after he “fixed” it, refusing to complete his warranty repairs, his initial contract to sort out the electronics not fulfilled 20 months later. He fixed the clutch, now it need replacement, he fixed the prop shaft, now it need replacement. He replaced a “leaking” radiator, tested twice now by independent specialist and find not to be leaking, only to find that after his replacement now there are a leak on the new radiator and it is installed with the cap 60mm lower than the radiator top causing an airlock and engine overheating. Radiator takes 1litre less now than the actual capacity. Parts installed not fixed properly and the cherry on the cake: he charged me for warranty repairs, overcharged and double billed me on items. For example : Billed me R5238-57 for a crank sensor which costs R1850 brand new from agents, after his bad workmanship damaged the sensor. Bad news. The original work he was paid for in full has not been completed. Promised bookings for repairs which just never materialised. When put on terms he as a member referred the case to RMI only for them to walk away as the evidence are too factual. Case now with MIOSA. Bad service all round. Quite a shock after trusting him as an expert and accepting and paying for his expert diagnostics. Some parts paid for not even installed like the lower gear lever boot. Unichip he installed faulty and already needed replacement once. Vehicle idling erratically, cuts out when splashed with water - suspect the chip to be the cause which was coated in black silicone to “seal it”, still lying loose in engine compartment. Even at one stage refused that I collect my vehicle until the new invoice for R18 900 was not paid as “he struggled with some other non-paying clients and cannot take chances”, after I already spend over R200 000 with him on faults he identified and paid each and every time on collection. Kept vehicle for 3 days over a weekend only to find that he over-billed me again, charged for warranty work done and in the end I only had to pay R6800 on the whole invoice after confronting him in writing

Had a custom charge pipe fitted as the OEM pipe keeps failing. This came in at less then half the cost of an OEM replacement and was done in a single day. Definitely going back for an EGR and swirl flap delete soon.

Ordering or parts is quick and easy.Payment options are simple to use and you can view the status of your order on their site.Parts are decent quality and relatively easy to fit but instructions would be helpful.They offer cost effective,locally produced performance parts which south africa needs more of.Keep it up guys.

Good products - but could work on better communication via email or tel. Paid for overnight delivery of product R108 as website said it was in stock, turns out it wasn't. I found out you were only getting in the stock day 2 of my order, in the afternoon, so i would have at best received the product day 3. Not a huge deal, but would be nice to be kept in the loop. Shipping says 1-2 days, invoice says overnight.... Maybe just clear up your descriptions a bit or use a delivery company like Courier Guy they have a WordPress Plugin. I buy products from a small company in JHB and they ship to me in CPT within 1 - 2 days for R60, or overnight ordered before 10am at R130. Will change my rating to 4 star as i have bought from you once before and there wasnt an issue.

Took my supercharged GT 86 to Motorcade to get tuned after taking it to another workshop who had my car for about 2 months. Left it at Motorcade for about 3 days and my car was tuned properly, smooth even power and my error codes went away. Motorcade definitely know what they are doing. I took my car back to motorcade then after for a few upgrades and was not disappointed once. From high octane tuning, catch can install, general service and fixing up my coil-over suspension was not fitted correctly by another workshop. Over the time I formed a good trust worthy relationship with Motorcade to a point where I have asked them to do an engine swap on my GT 86 as well as working on a Honda civic EK AWD conversion. Additionally, I also took my Honda FK2 Type R to get checked out to make sure everything is 100%. I highly recommend Motorcade, Wessel is a perfectionist and arguably the best tuner and engineer around. Sometimes I have to wait a few days to get an appointment because his fully booked, but after wasting money at other workshops.. its worth the wait.

Had my 4.0 liter navara there for services and clutch replacement. Never had better service anywhere else. All other small issues were reported or repaired. Even had a free flow exhaust fitted. Had my 5.7 liter Chev lumina by them,sad that i only met Wessel after i had it at Mace services i could have saved ay least R30 000. Thanks for all your passion you have towards my chevy. The things Mace said they will fix you actually fixed without charging me bags full of money. Thanks Wessel

Good day I ordered a Cold air induction kit for my Runx rsi, 2 Clamps where missing which I had to buy while fitting the kit also there is so much of scratches it's unbelievable, when I told dem about it they said it must haved slipped off and the pipe was polished but to me the pipe look so cheap not like the way they say Aircraft material used! Guess because I'm in durban so it was just made anyhow

Best mechanic, engineer and tuner in Cape Town, if not SA. Rav4 3sgte swop in 22 days. Build has not had a single issue in 3 years, apart from maintenance and worn items as expected from a 25 year old vehicle. Wessel has always been more than willing to accommodate and repair various vehicles in my family. Workmanship in terms of quality of labor, and labor rates, is beyond what any dealership can offer. Highly recommended, even for basic maintenance on non-performance orientated vehicles.
