ah cool - camberley is pretty close to me about 35min drive..

what would VAGCOM show in terms of seeing if there was a boost leak vs VW dealer diagnostics?

am really interested to see if it would throw up any errors that would leak to specific parts, that way if it did show something, the parts could be ordered for tomorrow i guess

Thanks again
