Swopped me silver vw badge for a black one

[MK3 Beardo]

Paid for it and driven it home

Ordered a code reader (U281 is the right one, right?) and booked it in to have the timing checked out as it's not revving past 5k.

U281 readers are handy little things to keep in the boot, albeit very basic. I've had one for about 8yrs and has helped me out loads when i need to quickly diagnose a problem whilst on the road.

I figured for the tenner or so they cost, it's better to have one than not 
Went for a long drive today, looking for additional issues - are all Mk3s are a bit soft as standard?

Ah yeah, them too
Wherry is pretty local to me, isn't he? I wonder how much fun he finds doing those...
