    Get a stack of WD40 aroung it mate, try using a hammer to knock it out the way.

    take it to a proper garage!!

    luckily for you they couldn't do it! if there lowering the car via the splines method then AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE is the general rule!!

    get plenty of WD40 on there as said above and take it to a garage that knows what their doing, or its going to bit you in the ass later on!

    Yeh the splines way this NOT good! Thank god they didn't manage to do it like S34mer said. If they had done it that way you could have had major problems with your car. Get it done properly somewhere else.
