Yep.  The bad boy I was referring to was my car itself.  

Upsolute was what I was looking into.  I think it's chipping as opposed to remapping tho'.

Why you using a stealership?
I thought you found yourself a decent cheap garage.

There was stuff I needed doing under warranty so I took it to VW.

Aint got no tools (or skill).

Unlucky mate, you will get that remap someday.

Doesnt anyone do D.I.Y no more

brake fluid and brake pads wouldnt take you no more than a couple of hours at the most, if you have done it before even less.


For the price you prob paid someone to do the work for you you could have bough the tools you need. A socket set and a few bits and bobs is all you need. Surely you have some tools? sounds to me you have more money than sense or your too lazy,

good luck with the car anyway

Yeah. I realise that about the tools. Got little money, even less sense.  

I'm just lacking confidence in getting stuck in, really.  I'm fairly technically minded (I'm a software developer), but just go no mechanical experience.

Need to invest in some equipment  :P
