Went down to my local Stealers today---confirm my car will be available for pick-up this friday.
Hard to believe they are going to charge me £90 to fit my Fiscon!!! Their excuse is that they don't have their own autoelectrician. Don't know whether I can trust someone non-Vw trained to service my car in the future!

Mate that is ridiculous, they don't need an autoelectrician, just someone with half a brain! That's just wrong.
