Engine Diagnostic Check??

24 August 2012, 19:07 »
Hello I have recently got a 16v GTI and have done all the norm like service etc. Is it worth having an
Diagnostic check from TSR. They have quoted me £25 today. What are your thoughts??
Thank u

Some form of warning light on dash. Lack of power. Excess exhaust smoke. Abs problems.
That kinda stuff
