UY Storage Workshop | Mechanic and Parts

December 28th, 2023 by desirablemaximum04

We needed some substantial repairs to our MAN 4x4 after falling off a cattle barge in the Pantanal and a too-close experience with an earth-mover. Timo and Felix replaced the electric steps and fixed all the bodywork, for a very fair price. The quality of their work is excellent and they’ve been professional and helpful throughout. We’ve stored the truck with them numerous times over the past few years, they’ve carried out various mechanical jobs for us and we’ve always found them to be reliable and trustworthy. As an engineer I can fix most things myself, but these guys are an excellent resource to fall back on.

The guys from Terraventura built us a complete new cabin on our old Landcruiser. They are all the best. To build this with full stuff they only needed 8 months. We are so happy with this quality and this incredible result. Timo, Michel and Felix are the best. Thx a lot. If you ever think about to to the same like us, come here.

In March 2023 a Simmerring leaked at my rear axle and I drove to UY storage Canelones, Uruguay. During the inspection, F. realized that the Simmering had to be exchanged. The car was stored and I brought a new Simmering from Germany in mid-June. Now a close examination was made and it was established that the cause of this was damage to the ball bearing. This was detected already 10 minutes after the start of work. Then the remaining parts were ordered in Germany and I waited 8 days until they arrived and the import was done. Unnecessary waiting time and extra costs due to sloppy inspection in March.
There was an exchange of the ball bearing and the simmering. About 15000 km later the same damage again.
At Mercedes in Llanquihue they then removed everything again and found that a ring was installed upside down and everything had moved easily. About 1 cm was the groove which sat wrong around. As a result, the ball bearing, the gear and the housing had strong iron abrasion and had to be completely replaced. The Fa UY storage has declined liability upon request and sending the clear photos. On one photo it was clear that a ring was mounted incorrectly.
The whole has cost us 19 days time and the additional damage was 2400€ with all parts plus the time spent at UY storage and the cost of UY storage.
In conclusion, I must say. If I'd never met the people

The guys from UY storage find a suitable solution for every problem. And if it takes a little longer, you can easily stay at the campsite belonging to it (very nice showers / WC).

We were really very satisfied with the work on the truck and the campsite.
