That does not sound great. Was it under warranty, or you pay for it?

I have to ask why are so many dealers totally inept at just checking & making sure all these bits are reset and faults cleared ! They all seem just as bad as one another.
When my one fitted the EGR valve they didnt bother clearing the code, nor did they for the crash sensor they replaced or all the other bits !
very poor service and after care !
