Your Products may vary slightly from those images.

5.2.    Product packaging may vary from that shown in images on our Site.

5.3.    It is your sole responsibility to check that Products and Services ordered are suitable for their particular use, purpose or vehicle. If you are at all unsure, we encourage you to contact us and consult one of our team of experienced professionals.

5.4.    If you place an Order through our Site and we can clearly see something is wrong such as, without limitation, you have ordered one Product for one type of vehicle and one Product for another totally different vehicle, then we may contact you to confirm whether this was intentional or if it is an error.  We may then identify the most suitable replacement Product and issue a refund (as we decide, in our sole discretion).

5.5.    Where possible, we sell AKS Tuning own branded Products with a warranty. The details of any warranty provided by us will be set out on the relevant Product’s description on our Site, or on the Product’s packaging. Any Products which are not an AKS Tuning brand, may come with a manufacturer’s warranty and further information on any such manufacturer’s warranty can be found on the relevant Product’s packaging or on our Site. Should you have any issues with a Product we have sold to you, please contact us first and we will try to assist you or liaise with the manufacturer on your behalf, where we reasonably can.

5.7.    For the avoidance of doubt, genuine VAG Products that are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty are subject to the VAG warranty terms and conditions, and process. The warranty is provided by the VAG Group on Products for up to 1 (one) year from the date of your purchase. The Products must be fitted to the vehicle for which the Product was intended, and unaltered from how the Product was supplied.  If you experience a fault in this time period, that you believe is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, please follow the guidelines set out below:

5.7.1.   Contact your local main dealership (Audi, Seat, Skoda, VW, VW Commercial etc) depending on the vehicle make that you have;

5.7.2.   Speak to the service department and inform them that: you have a genuine part fitted that is within the manufacturer’s warranty period; you believe the part is faulty; and you would like to book in for a parts warranty booking to investigate and replace, if necessary;

5.7.3.   The dealership should book you in and then, on the day of the booking, you will need to bring with you a copy of your invoice from us that shows your proof of purchase. They should investigate the issue and confirm or deny if the issue is down to a faulty part;

5.7.4.   If the part is proven faulty, the dealership should replace the part without any charge to you and no labour or investigation charges should be payable by you.

5.7.5.  If the part is proven not to be faulty, or another issue is determined to be the cause of the problem, the dealership will charge you their relevant fees for diagnostic work, together with the cost of labour and parts required to investigate or rebuild the vehicle.

5.7.6.  Warranty on Products that are produced or modified by us i.e. they are not bespoke or special order Products, are subject to the terms set out in the description of the Product on our Site.

5.8.    To the extent permitted by English law, we do not provide any warranty in relation to Services performed in our Workshop.

 

6.      Changes

6.1.    Your rights to make changes to your Order - If you wish to make a change to the Products and/or Services you have ordered please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible, we will let you know about any changes to the price of the Products and/or Services, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change. If we cannot make the change or the consequences of making the change are unacceptable to you, you may want to end the Contract (see Clause 9 - Your rights to end the Contract).

6.2.    Our rights to make changes – We may change Products and/or Services:

6.2.1.  to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; or

6.2.2.  to implement minor technical adjustments and improvements. These changes will not affect your use of the Product and/or Services.

7.      Price and payment

7.1.    Where to find the price for the Product and Service - The price of a Product and Service (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your Order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product and Service advised to you is correct. Prices are correct at time of publishing and are subject to increase or decrease, without prior warning. Price changes  are commonplace amongst with all our suppliers, and when we are informed of price changes on Products and/or Services, we will adjust our prices in line with the suppliers’ recommended retail price.  However, please see Clause 7.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of a Product and/or Service you have ordered.

7.2.    If the rate of VAT changes between the date of your Order and the date we take payment for the Product and Service, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay to account for such changes.

7.3.    Incorrect pricing - It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products and/or Services we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your Order so that, where the Product and/or Service's correct price at your Order date is less than our stated price at your Order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product and/or Service's correct price at your Order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your Order. If we accept and process your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any Products provided to you.

7.4.    We accept payment by most major credit or debit cards, Klarna (subject to Klarna’s terms and conditions of business), Paypal and bank transfer (although Paypal and bank transfers are not available as payment option on our Site webstore – please contact us by telephone (+44 (0) 1234 822 324) or in writing (info@akstuning.com) for more information) but we do not accept American Express cards (your Payment Method).

7.5.    If you use the Products or Services for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose, we will only accept payment by bank transfer, unless another form of payment has been agreed by us in advance with you by phone or email.

7.6.    You must pay for the Products and Services before we supply them to you.

7.7.    We may charge interest if you are late in paying for Products or Services - If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% a year above the base lending rate of the Bank of England from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.

 

8.      Supply of Products and Services

8.1.    Unless we notify you otherwise, we aim to supply the Products and Services to you as soon as reasonably possible and in any event within 60 (sixty) days after the day on which we provide our Order Despatch Confirmation.

8.2.    If our supply of the Products and/or Services is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the Contract and receive a refund for any Products and/or Services you have paid for but not received.

8.3.    Ending the Contract for late delivery - If you do choose to treat the Contract as at an end for late supply under Clause 9.3.3 or Clause 9.3.4,, you can cancel your Order for any of the Products and/or Services that have not been delivered. We will then refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled Products and/or Services and their supply.

8.5.    Disputes concerning the Products and/or Services, must be submitted by telephone (+44 (0) 1234 822 324) or in writing (info@akstuning.com) to us.

We allow 48 (forty-eight) hours for notification of any defects following supply. After this time has elapsed, the return period for Products remains 14 (fourteen) days, but the Product is considered your responsibility and any damage will be treated as such while in your care.

8.7.      Time shall not be of the essence in relation to any supply date for the Products and/or Services.

 

9.      Your right to change your mind and end the Contract

9.1.    Your rights to end the Contract will depend on whether there is anything wrong with the Products and/or Services, how we are performing the Contract and when you decide to end the Contract.

9.2.    Your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013) - You have 14 (fourteen) days to end the Contract after the day we accept your Order but only if we have not supplied the Products and Services set out in our Order Despatch Confirmation.  In this event, you should email us at info@akstuning.com with your Order number and address.

The Contract is completed when the Products and Services to be supplied under that Contract are supplied and paid for. If you want to end a Contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you are outside the time limits in which you have the right to change your mind, just contact us to let us know. The Contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for Products and/or Services not provided but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of you ending the Contract.
