I'm at my wits end with my issue, been in a garage now for a week and still not looked at it as they are busy.

Sorry don't have much experience since mines been going to Farnells in Leeds for 1st 3 years. Time to change this year for service / mot etc and was thinking of trying Parkside. One in Copley next to main dealer gets some good reviews on here I seem to recall |

don't get me wrong parksides got me in and said its possibly the turbo and said they will not know until its changed, just expensive way to diagnose but very good service |

Heard good things about Parkside so will give them a go. It will only be 4 years old and 40000 miles so hopefully no unwelcome surprises |

still not sure, turbo seems fine but the actuator seems to be ok, had new intercooler. the change of the intercooler has retored the car back to normal but when the car restarts it goes in to limp mode and once the fault clears its ok again |

In my experience we are missing the real mechanic with experience and general know how. The people appear to be trained to plug in the computer and follow its instruction (therefore start with the turbo) if you are lucky to know a good independent he normally has some 2nd hand spares and changes the part, if it doesn't work he replaces the original and tries the next. Unfortunately many main dealers put it on the computer and then order the relevant parts which are delivered during the night ready for fitting the following day. But once fitted it stays fitted and the bill increases and increases!!!!!!! If it ain't ***ked don't fix it |
