Schockierende Ergebnisse beim aktuellen ADAC Werkstatt-Test: 78 Prozent der getesteten freien Werkstätten sind glatt durchgefallen - 28 von 36 untersuchten Betrieben haben die Bewertung „mangelhaft“ erhalten. Bei den Werkstatt-Ketten (A.T.U, Bosch, Meisterhaft und 1a Autoservice) sieht das Bild nur unwesentlich besser aus – hier fielen 17 von 36 Betrieben durch (47 Prozent). Des Weiteren zeigt der Test deutlich, dass die Freien bei der Inspektion nicht günstiger sind als die Ketten. Insgesamt enttäuschend bei dieser Stichprobe des ADAC: Von allen getesteten 72 Betrieben (Freie und Werkstatt-Ketten) erhielten gerade einmal sechs die Wertung „sehr gut“ (8 Prozent). Testgewinner bei den Ketten ist ein A.T.U-Betrieb in Hamburg (Heidhorst 3). Positiv: Keine einzige A.T.U-Werkstatt erhielt die Note mangelhaft. Den Testern des ADAC fiel bei A.T.U zudem auf, dass bei der Inspektionsannahme offen und realistisch über die voraussichtlichen Kosten gesprochen wird. Sechs der neun getesteten A.T.U-Service-Unternehmen fanden alle vom ADAC vorbereiteten Mängel. Bei den Bosch-Werkstätten fielen drei Betriebe durch, bei „1a“ sechs und bei Meisterhaft acht. Von allen freien Werkstätten hat Riegelhof Karosseriebau in Frankfurt/Main am besten abgeschnitten.Der Club hat die Werkstätten mit Fahrzeugen der Modelle Audi A3, Renault Megane und VW Golf 5 getestet. Vor der Prüfung wurden die Autos mit Mängeln präpariert: Ein verstelltes Scheinwerferlicht, eine defekte Kofferraumleuchte, ein ausgehängtes ABS-Kabel, ein zu niedriger Kühlmittelstand sowie ein Ersatzrad mit zu wenig Reifendruck, fehlendes oder abgelaufenes Pannenset. Die Arbeitsleistung wurde mit höchstens 60 Punkten, der Service mit maximal 40 Punkten bewertet. Punktabzug gab es, wenn wesentliche Serviceleistungen fehlten oder Zusatzarbeiten ohne vorherigen Auftrag ausgeführt wurden. Fazit des ADAC: Auch im Werkstatt-Test 2013 arbeiteten viele Betriebe die Inspektionsliste nicht sorgfältig ab, da nicht alle versteckten Fehler gefunden wurden. Nachholbedarf gibt es auch beim Kundenservice. Deshalb rät der Club den Verbrauchern, den Wagen zusammen mit dem Serviceberater anzuschauen und den Wartungsauftrag schriftlich zu erteilen. So werden Missverständnisse weitgehend ausgeschlossen.

Golf Lessons Irvine http://www.GolfSwingPrescription.com Call (949) 554-9926 - Are you looking for golf lessons in Irvine (or the nearby area) or just golfing tips in general? Ryan Trengrove (Class A PGA member), owner of a state-of-the-art indoor golf training facility called Golf Swing Prescription (Laguna Hills, CA), shows you how conquer one of the most common problems in Golf - keeping your lower body stable while swinging the golf club!
Ryan states that if you can get your lower body to be more stable, you will have a lot more fun when you are playing golf. Ryan shows you a video of one of Golf’s great player’s, Davis Love III, to display great lower body stability. Ryan points out how Davis’s lower body not only stays in the “same sit” and “same flex” as Davis goes up to the top of his golf swing, but, also when he goes back down to hit the golf ball.
Ryan also points out the importance of NOT having your lower body “sway”, but to have it “swivel” instead. The goal is to keep the lower body in its flex, so that you can have it sit, and keep the hip in the same spot. If you are able to do this, as you come from the top of your swing down to the ball, you should make solid contact.
In order to assist you in achieving better lower body stability, Ryan shows you a golf drill called the “Feet Together Drill”. This drill has the golfer setup to hit the golf ball with their feet together, which will prevent the golfer from going “side to side” during the swing. The idea behind the drill is to have the golfer hit a number of shots with their feet together so that they can get the “feeling” of not “going side to side” and being stable. Once you get use to the feeling, then you can widen your golf stance, trying to maintain the same “stable feeling” felt during the drill, with your base “swiveling” and not “swaying”.
Ryan goes on to show you one more drill to help you that he got from Golf Professional, Nick Faldo called the “Right Foot Forward – Left Leg Back Drill” (just switch if you are left handed). The goal of this drill is to help you focus on keeping the flex in your right knee. You get in your normal golf stance, but, just move your left leg back a couple of feet, and then hit the ball. So what this drill does is to focus you on keeping the proper flex in your right knee.
What Ryan wants you to do is to work on the combination of the “Feet Together Drill” and the “Right Foot Forward –Left Leg Back Drill” so that when you get up to your golf ball you focus on staying centered – no “side to side” and keeping your right knee flexed. Ryan points out that if you can do this, that you should make better contact with the ball!
Ryan performs over 1,500 golf lessons per year, when compared to the average club pro that only conducts approximately 300. Ryan is extremely popular for a reason; his indoor
