It is indeed possible alongside having to place all the sensors etc there is a lot of wiring etc, I am sure it cost someone around $1000 to complete the process and also more time than a VW labour charge for a diagnostic and MOT check :wink:

Shame, woulda been fly in me wagon!! :cool:

lol - how did you get on with VW today anyway? did you get your inspection fee back?

Neah, they're nob heads. Found out they were definitely lying though, it's just the bushes that need replacing. I think I'm just going to stay clear of VW for good now.

Worth a shot. 9 year old car, looked through the service records and it's never been re-gassed. Who sells these kits?
-
don't some places do an air con check for a couple of quid? that would confirm if it did need a re-gas
look for a local specialist or again take it to Awesome and ask them :smiley:
-
Yeah, think I'll have to nip to Awesome, need their help with a few things :P
